Description Usage Arguments Value Examples

Creates all 2-combinations of factor variables within a given scope and measures their relative information to an output variable

1 2	factor.allpairs.test(data, vars.list, var.output, max.factors = Inf, return.list = FALSE, parallel = FALSE)

`data`	A data frame
`vars.list`	A list of pairs (variable.name,variable.type) such as those produced by `allvariables.manual.review`
`var.output`	The name of the variable output
`max.factors`	An integer; factors with more factors than this integer are not taken into account
`return.list`	(defaults to TRUE) If `TRUE`, the function returns a list of one-line dataframes; if `FALSE`, it returns a concatenated dataframe sorted by decreasing value of `RI.combined`
`parallel`	(defaults to FALSE) If TRUE, dispatches factor pairs in parallel
