In WetRobot/popEpi: Functions for Epidemiological Analysis using Population Data

'array's, 'data.frame's and 'ratetable's

Description

Utilities to transform objects between 'array', 'data.frame', and [survival::ratetable].

Usage

long_df_to_array(x, stratum.col.nms, value.col.nm)

long_df_to_ratetable(
  x,
  stratum.col.nms,
  value.col.nm,
  dim.types,
  cut.points = NULL
)

long_dt_to_array(x, stratum.col.nms, value.col.nm)

long_dt_to_ratetable(
  x,
  stratum.col.nms,
  value.col.nm,
  dim.types,
  cut.points = NULL
)

array_to_long_df(x)

array_to_long_dt(x)

array_to_ratetable(x, dim.types, cut.points = NULL)

ratetable_to_array(x)

ratetable_to_long_df(x)

ratetable_to_long_dt(x)

Arguments

x	'[data.frame, data.table, array, ratetable]' (mandatory, no default) - 'long_df_to_array': a 'data.frame' - 'long_df_to_ratetable': a 'data.frame' - 'long_dt_to_array': a 'data.table' - 'long_dt_to_ratetable': a 'data.table' - 'array_to_long_df': an 'array' - 'array_to_long_dt': an 'array' - 'array_to_ratetable': an 'array' - 'ratetable_to_array': a [survival::ratetable] - 'ratetable_to_long_df': a [survival::ratetable] - 'ratetable_to_long_dt': a [survival::ratetable]
stratum.col.nms	'[character]' (mandatory, no default) a vector of column names in 'x' by which values are stratified
value.col.nm	'[character]' (mandatory, no default) name of column in 'x' containing values (these will be contents of the array)
dim.types	'[integer]' (mandatory, no default) see 'type' under **Details** in [survival::ratetable]
cut.points	'[NULL, list]' (optional, default 'NULL') see 'cutpoints' under **Details** in [survival::ratetable] - 'NULL': automatically set using 'dimnames(x)' and 'dim.types' - 'list': one element for each dimensions of 'x'

Details

- 'long_df_to_array': converts a long-format 'data.frame' to an 'array' with one or more dimensions

- 'long_df_to_ratetable': calls 'long_df_to_array' and then 'array_to_ratetable'

- 'long_dt_to_array': simply asserts that 'x' is a 'data.table' and calls 'long_df_to_array'

- 'long_dt_to_ratetable': calls 'long_dt_to_array' and then 'array_to_ratetable'

- 'array_to_long_df': converts an array with one or more dimensions into a long-format 'data.frame'; any [dimnames] are used to name and fill the stratifying columns; for dimensions without a name, '".dX"' is used for stratifying column number 'X'; for each 'k', if there are no contents in 'dimnames(x)[[k]]', the elements of 'seq(dim(x)[k])' are used to fill the corresponding stratifying column; the value column always has the name '"value"'

- 'array_to_long_dt': calls 'array_to_long_df' and converts result to a 'data.table' for convenience

- 'array_to_ratetable': converts an array to a [survival::ratetable]

- 'ratetable_to_array': converts a [survival::ratetable] to an array

- 'ratetable_to_long_df': calls 'ratetable_to_array' and then 'array_to_long_df'

- 'ratetable_to_long_dt': calls 'ratetable_to_array' and then 'array_to_long_dt'

Value

- 'long_df_to_array': an 'array' - 'long_df_to_ratetable': a [survival::ratetable] - 'long_dt_to_array': an 'array' - 'long_dt_to_ratetable': a [survival::ratetable] - 'array_to_long_df': an 'data.frame' - 'array_to_long_dt': an 'data.table' - 'array_to_ratetable': a [survival::ratetable] - 'ratetable_to_array': an 'array' - 'ratetable_to_long_df': a 'data.frame' - 'ratetable_to_long_dt': a 'data.table'

Examples

long_dt <- popEpi::popmort
arr <- long_df_to_array(long_dt, c("agegroup", "year", "sex"), "haz") 
rt <- array_to_ratetable(arr, dim.types = c(2L, 4L, 1L))

arr2 <- ratetable_to_array(rt)
long_df2 <- array_to_long_df(arr2)

identical(sort(long_dt[["haz"]]), sort(long_df2[["value"]]))
