Examples

met1 <- data.frame(names=c("Jobs.2016","Jobs.2022"), as=c("Jobs.2016","Jobs.2022"))
met1 <- metricmaker(met1)
area1 <- data.frame(name=c("Great Britain", "Wales"), code=c("GB", "WAL"))
areadim <- dimmaker("Area", area1)
occdim <- dimmaker("Occupation", "asIdentity")
datapull("UK","Occupation","2016.1",list(CoW("A"),areadim,occsdim),met1)
