cell_limits(ul = c(NA_integer_, NA_integer_), lr = c(NA_integer_,
  NA_integer_), sheet = NA_character_)

## S3 method for class 'cell_limits'
dim(x)

as.cell_limits(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'cell_limits'
as.cell_limits(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'NULL'
as.cell_limits(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'character'
as.cell_limits(x, fo = NULL, ...)

Arguments

ul

vector identifying upper left cell of target rectangle

lr

vector identifying lower right cell of target rectangle

sheet

string containing worksheet name, optional

x

input to convert into a cell_limits object

...

further arguments passed to or from other methods

fo

either "R1C1" (the default) or "A1" specifying the cell reference format; in many contexts, it can be inferred and is optional

Details

A value of NA in ul or lr means the corresponding limit is left unspecified. Therefore a verbose way to specify no limits at all would be cell_limits(c(NA, NA), c(NA, NA)). If the maximum row or column is specified but the associated minimum is not, then the minimum is set to 1.

When specified via character, cell references can be given in A1 or R1C1 notation and must be interpretable as absolute references. For A1, this means either both row and column are annotated with a dollar sign $ or neither is. So, no mixed references, like B$4. For R1C1, this means no square brackets, like R[-3]C[3].

Value

as.cell_limits("'Spaces are evil'!R2C3:R6C9")

## Not run: 
## explicitly mixed A1 references won't work
as.cell_limits("A$2")
## mixed or relative R1C1 references won't work
as.cell_limits("RC[4]")

## End(Not run)
