list_functions: Convenience Functions For Lists

In lcmix: Layered and chained mixture models

Description

Convenience structures for creating, manipulating, and reporting on lists.

Usage

listGrid(x, KEEP.OUT.ATTRS=TRUE, stringsAsFactors=FALSE)

listMean(x, w=NULL)
listSum(x)

namedDataFrame(..., stringsAsFactors=FALSE) 
namedList(...)
namedVector(...)

Arguments

x	for listGrid, a list of which each element is a vector; for listMean and listSum, a list of numeric scalars, vectors, matrices, or data frames all having the same dimension.
KEEP.OUT.ATTRS, stringsAsFactors	as the equivalent arguments to expand.grid.
w	optional vector of weights.
...	any number of objects.

Details

listGrid is a replacement for expand.grid in which the last factor, rather than the first as in expand.grid, varies fastest.

listMean and listSum return the (optionally weighted) mean and sum, respectively, of a list of numeric elements. All elements of x must have the same dimension.

The named* functions return named objects of the appropriate type containing the objects in the ... argument. For example, instead of writing x <- list(y=y, z=z), one may write x <- namedList(x, y).

Value

For listGrid, a data frame. For listMean and listSum, an object of the same dimension as the elements of x. For named*, an object of the appropriate class.

species <- c("cat", "dog")
status <- c("spayed", "neutered", "intact")
age <- c(2, 5, 7)
listGrid(namedList(species, status, age))
