is.unsorted: Test if an Object is Not Sorted

Description Usage Arguments Value Note See Also

View source: R/New-Internal.R

Description

Test if an object is not sorted (in increasing order), without the cost of sorting it.

Usage

1
is.unsorted(x, na.rm = FALSE, strictly = FALSE)

Arguments

x

an R object with a class or a numeric, complex, character, logical or raw vector.

na.rm

logical. Should missing values be removed before checking?

strictly

logical indicating if the check should be for strictly increasing values.

Value

A length-one logical value. All objects of length 0 or 1 are sorted. Otherwise, the result will be NA except for atomic vectors and objects with an S3 class (where the >= or > method is used to compare x[i] with x[i-1] for i in 2:length(x)) or with an S4 class where you have to provide a method for is.unsorted().

Note

This function is designed for objects with one-dimensional indices, as described above. Data frames, matrices and other arrays may give surprising results.

Support for raw vectors was added in R 3.1.0.
