dimIds: Set and get dimension identifiers

In stevencarlislewalker/subscript: Subscript

Description

Dimension identifiers (dimIds) allow combining objects into poly.data.frame objects, which are related along the dimensions of each of their consitituent objects. In order to make use of these relationships, the dimensions of each object must be identified, which is accomplished by dimIds.

Usage

dimIds(x)

dimIds(x) <- value

setDimIds(x, value)

Arguments

x	An object
value	Identifiers for object dimensions

Details

dimIds are stored in two different ways:

• For data.frame objects and everything else without dimnames, dimIds are stored as an attribute.

• For any object with dimnames except data.frames, dimIds are stored as the names of the list of dimnames.
