is_dhist: Check if an object is a 'dhist' discrete histogram

In alan-turing-institute/network-comparison: An implementation of the NetEMD alignment-free network distance measure

Check if an object is a dhist discrete histogram

Description

Checks if the input object is of class dhist. If fast_check is TRUE then the only check is whether the object has a class attribute of dhist. If fast_check is FALSE (default), then checks are also made to ensure that the object has the structure required of a dhist object.

Usage

is_dhist(x, fast_check = TRUE)

Arguments

x	An arbitrary object
fast_check	Boolean flag indicating whether to perform only a superficial fast check limited to checking the object's class attribute is set to dhist (default = TRUE)
