Compare Files and Find Differences

Description

Compare two files, each presumably containing the same data, except with one folder containing files that have been modified or "fixed" by the user. For the DASH R package, the function can be useful for comparing a file containing raw untouched on-the-ground (OTG) data from Survey123 with a file containing the same data except modified by the user, presumably in an attempt to remedy errors identified during data import or QA/QC. Both file1 and file2 should only contain entire paths, including file name and extension, each representing a survey containing the otg data. These files must be either .csv or .xlsx/.xls files.

Usage

compare_files(file1 = NA, file2 = NA, ...)

Arguments

file1

a path to the first file of interest, including file extension, perhaps the raw untouched data.

file2

a path to the second file of interest, including file extension, perhaps the data files that have been modified or fixed by the user, presumably to remedy errors identified during data import or QA/QC.

Value

fill out return when ready
