bindMatches: bindMatches

In Sam-Murray/RecordLinkUtil: Tools for Testing Record Linkage Software

Description

Given 2 data frames(dfA and dfB) and a nx2 matrix of matched indices, will return a dataframe containing both dataframes bound by index. If there are identical names in both dataframes, the result will differentiate by adding idA(default is "A.") to the duplicate names in dfA, and idB(default is "B.") to those in dfB.

Usage

bindMatches(dfA, dfB, inds, idA, idB)

Arguments

dfA	First data frame to bind
dfB	Second data frame to bind
inds	A nx2 index pair matrix to bind on
idA	What to concatenate to a column name in dfA if there exists a identical column in dfB
idB	What to concatenate to a column name in dfB if there exists a identical column in dfB

Value

bindMatches returns a dataframe of the original dataframes bound by index.
