Description

Map between two sets of terms; used to harmonize data.

Usage

  x,
  synonymes,
  remove.unknown = FALSE,

  from = "synonyme",
  to = "name",
  keep.names = FALSE
)

Arguments

x	A character vector
synonymes	synonyme table with the fields 'synonyme' and 'name'
remove.unknown	Logical. Remove terms that do not have synonymes.
mode	'exact.match' replaces the terms based on the synonyme list if an exact match is found; 'match' replaces the parts that match synonymes; 'recursive' replaces all (sub)strings recursively in the same order as in the synonyme table
verbose	verbose
from	field that will be replaced
to	field that contains the final names
keep.names	Keep the original names in the returned vector (may slow down analysis in large data sets)
