unsplit: Unsplit a list-like object

In Bioconductor/BiocGenerics: S4 generic functions used in Bioconductor

Unsplit a list-like object

Description

Given a list-like object value and grouping f, unsplit produces a vector-like object x by conceptually reversing the split operation value <- split(x, f).

NOTE: This man page is for the unsplit S4 generic function defined in the BiocGenerics package. See ?base::unsplit for the default method (defined in the base package). Bioconductor packages can define specific methods for objects not supported by the default method.

Usage

unsplit(value, f, drop=FALSE)

Arguments

value	A list-like object.
f	A factor or other grouping object that corresponds to the f symbol in value <- split(x, f).
drop	See ?base::unsplit for a description of this argument.

Value

See ?base::unsplit for the value returned by the default method.

Specific methods defined in Bioconductor packages should behave as consistently as possible with the default method.
