mass_balance: Calculate isotope mass balance

In isoverse/isotopia: Work with Isotopic Data in R

Description

This function calculates the isotope mass balance from combining multiple weighted isotope abundance or delta value objects. This calculation is also implemented with an arithmetic shorthand.

Usage

mass_balance(iso, iso2, ..., exact = get_iso_opts("exact_mass_balance"))

## S4 method for signature 'ANY,ANY'
mass_balance(iso, iso2, ...,
  exact = get_iso_opts("exact_mass_balance"))

## S4 method for signature 'Abundance,Abundance'
mass_balance(iso, iso2, ...,
  exact = get_iso_opts("exact_mass_balance"))

## S4 method for signature 'Delta,Delta'
mass_balance(iso, iso2, ...,
  exact = get_iso_opts("exact_mass_balance"))

## S4 method for signature 'Deltas,Deltas'
mass_balance(iso, iso2, ...,
  exact = get_iso_opts("exact_mass_balance"))

Arguments

...	- any number of weighted isotope value objects (have to be all either abundance or delta)
exact	- whether to calculate mass balance of delta values exactly (default FALSE), not fully implemented yet

Value

weighted abundance or delta value object that represents the combination of the parameters
