In abnormally-distributed/Bayezilla: Bayesian Models With JAGS and Several Utilities for Data Exploration and Model Evaluation.

Description

Scale a data frame or matrix

Usage

scale(data, scale.type = 1)

Arguments

data	a data frame or vector
scale.type	one of "sd" (default) for mean centered standard deviation scaled, "medmad" for median centered median absolute deviation scaled, "medsd" for median centered standard deviation scaled, "mean" for mean centered but unscaled, or "med" for median centered but unscaled. Also accepts 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 respectively as input types.

Details

an improvement of the base R scale function. Unlike R's standard scale function, this allows for factor columns or character columns to be present in the data, and will simply leave those untouched without throwing an error.

Value

A data frame
