add_scorerWeights_to_criteriaTree: Add weights of a scorer to criteria tree

In Matherion/mdmcda: Multi Decision Multi Criteria Decision Analysis

Description

This function takes scorer weights and adds them to the criteria tree. NOTE: the criteria tree is an R6 object. Therefore, when this function is called, the object will be changed in memory; i.e. the '$criteriaTree' 'data.tree' object that is passed in 'criteria' is passed by _reference_, not by value (the default for normal R objects).

Usage

add_scorerWeights_to_criteriaTree(
  weights,
  scorer,
  criteria,
  rootWeight = 1,
  rootParentCriterion_id = "-",
  weightName = paste0(scorer, "_weight")
)

Arguments

weights	The weights object.
scorer	The scorer id (a character value).
criteria	The criteria object.
rootWeight	The weight for the root (normally, 1).
rootParentCriterion_id	The identifier of the root.
weightName	The name to use for the variable with these weights.

Value

A dataframe with weights (invisibly). Note the updated criteria tree: that, after all, is changed in memory because it's passed by reference instead of by value.
