helper: General helper functions

In tilltnet/egonetR: Import and analyse ego-centric network data

Description

Helper functions for ego centric network analysis

Usage

dyad.poss(max.alteri, directed = F)

sanitize.wide.edges(max.alteri)

create.edge.names.wide(x)

dyads.possible.between.groups(x, y)

din.page.dist(x)

Arguments

max.alteri	A numeric giving the maximum number of alteri.
directed	A logical value indicating directedness of alter-alter data.
x	Numeric.
y	Numeric.

Functions

• dyad.poss: Returns the count of possible edges in an undirected or directed, ego-centered network, based on the number of alteri.

• sanitize.wide.edges: Generates a data.frame marking possible dyads in a wide alter-alter relation data.frame. Row names corresponds to the network size. This is useful for sanitizing alter-alter relations in the wide format.

• create.edge.names.wide: Creates a vector of names for variables containing data on alter-alter relations/ dyads in ego-centered networks.

• dyads.possible.between.groups: Calculates the possible edges between members of different groups in an ego-centered network.

• din.page.dist: Calculates the optimal distribution of a number of equally sized objects on a DIN-Norm DIN 476 (i.e. DIN A4) page in landscape view.
