NaArray-subsetting: Subsetting an NaArray object

NaArray-subsettingR Documentation

Subsetting an NaArray object

Description

EXPERIMENTAL!!!

Like ordinary arrays in base R, NaArray objects support subsetting via the single bracket operator ([).

See Also

  • drop in base R to drop the ineffective dimensions of an array or array-like object.

  • Lindex2Mindex in the S4Arrays package for how to convert an L-index to an M-index and vice-versa.

  • NaArray objects.

  • [ and ordinary array objects in base R.

Examples

naa <- NaArray(dim=5:3)
naa[c(1:2, 8, 10, 15:17, 20, 24, 40, 56:60)] <- (1:15)*10L

## ---------------------------------------------------------------------
## N-dimensional subsetting
## ---------------------------------------------------------------------
naa[5:3, c(4,2,4), 2:3]
naa[ , c(4,2,4), 2:3]
naa[ , c(4,2,4), -1]
naa[ , c(4,2,4), 1]

naa2 <- naa[ , c(4,2,4), 1, drop=FALSE]
naa2

## Ineffective dimensions can always be dropped as a separate step:
drop(naa2)

naa[ , c(4,2,4), integer(0)]

dimnames(naa) <- list(letters[1:5], NULL, LETTERS[1:3])

naa[c("d", "a"), c(4,2,4), "C"]

naa2 <- naa["e", c(4,2,4), , drop=FALSE]
naa2

drop(naa2)

## ---------------------------------------------------------------------
## 1D-style subsetting (a.k.a. linear subsetting)
## ---------------------------------------------------------------------

## Using a numeric vector (L-index):
naa[c(60, 24, 21, 56)]

## Using a matrix subscript (M-index):
m <- rbind(c(5, 4, 3),
           c(4, 1, 2),
           c(1, 1, 2),
           c(1, 4, 3))
naa[m]

## See '?Lindex2Mindex' in the S4Arrays package for how to convert an
## L-index to an M-index and vice-versa.
