topElo(eloTab, N = 10, time.range = eloTab$datetime, low = FALSE)

Arguments

eloTab	an object of class "eloTable" from which ratings are pulled.
N	the number of ratings to return.
time.range	POSIXct of length two which describes the time range to look for scores in.

Examples

# generate generic data
interactions <- data.frame (a = sample (letters [1:10], 100, T),
                            b = sample (letters [1:10], 100, T),
                            o = sample (c(-1,-1,0,1,1), 100, T),
                            d = Sys.time () + runif (100, 40, 160))
# convert to interData object
id1 <- intTableConv (interactions)
# produce eloTable object
et1 <- eloTable (id1)
# get top 5 highest scores attained in the table
topElo (et1, 5)
# get top 5 lowest scores attained in the table
topElo (et1, 5, low = TRUE)
