Methods for Function rstream.packed in Package ‘rstream’

Description

Get status (packed/unopacked) of an "rstream" object in package rstream.

Pack and unpack an "rstream" object in package rstream.

When a "rstream" object should be used in another R session or saved for some kind of later reuse all information about the object must be packed. Notice no method other than unpacking can be applied to a packed object. It must be unpacked before.

Usage

## S4 method for signature 'rstream'
rstream.packed(stream)
rstream.packed(stream) <- value

Arguments

stream	an "rstream" object.
value	a boolean (TRUE or FALSE) to change the status of the object. TRUE: pack the object. FALSE: unpack the object.

Methods

Methods available for all "rstream" subclasses: rstream.mrg32k3a, rstream.runif.
