Change Weights for stype Vector Elements

Description

Return a stype vector where the elements are weighted according to the specified inputs. By default, all of the weights for a stype vector are effectively constant.

Usage

weight(x, w, .descriptors = list())

## S4 method for signature 'stype,stypeWeightVar,maybeDescriptor'
weight(x, w, .descriptors = list())

## S4 method for signature 'stype,weightVar,maybeDescriptor'
weight(x, w, .descriptors = list())

Arguments

`x`	a vector a values
`w`	a vector of weights (optional)
`.descriptors`	an optional list of functions. Each function should have a signature of the form `function(v, ...)`, and where `v` is expected to be of the result of calling `as_canonical(x)` on the `x` input to `describe`, and `...` is expected to be the unchanged value of the input to `...` in `describe`. If the input list is named then elements in the return object corresponding to the result of evaluating the supplied functions will have the corresponding names.
