Usage

get_foodscore(
  breastmilk,
  grains,
  pulses,
  dairy,
  meat,
  eggs,
  vita_fruveg,
  oth_fruveg
)

Arguments

breastmilk	child received breastfeeding or not
grains	child consumed grains food group or not
pulses	child consumed pulses food group or not
dairy	child consumed diary and milk product food group or not
meat	child consumed meat food group or not
eggs	child consumed eggs food group or not

# Individual Food Group Variable Construction

 df <- iycfData

# General Dummy variable generator function
 breastmilk <- round(runif(nrow(df), min = 0, max = 1), 0)
 grains <- round(runif(nrow(df), min = 0, max = 1), 0)
 pulses <- round(runif(nrow(df), min = 0, max = 1), 0)
 dairy <- round(runif(nrow(df), min = 0, max = 1), 0)
 meat <- round(runif(nrow(df), min = 0, max = 1), 0)
 eggs <- round(runif(nrow(df), min = 0, max = 1), 0)
 vita_fruveg <- round(runif(nrow(df), min = 0, max = 1), 0)
 oth_fruveg <- round(runif(nrow(df), min = 0, max = 1), 0)

 # Calculate Food Consumption Score
 food_score <- get_foodscore(breastmilk, grains, pulses, dairy, meat,
                             eggs, vita_fruveg, oth_fruveg)
