findOverlap: findOverlap

In wccarleton/lamap: The Locally Adaptive Model of Archaeological Potential

Description

Imagine two sets, 'a' and 'b', where 'a' has bounds represented graphically by [] and 'b' has bounds ()—note this is not intended to represent set notation. The function returns 1 if 'b' is entirely within 'a', like this: [()]. It return 2 if [(]); 3 if [](); 4 if ([]); 5 if ([)]; and lastly 6 if ()[]. This function is used internally if the 'overlap' paramater is True in the 'lamap' function.

Usage

findOverlap(a, b)

Arguments

a	A vector of 2 dimensions—e.g., (1,10)
b	A vector of 2 dimensions—e.g., (5,9)

Value
