checkAtomic: Check that an argument is an atomic vector

Description

Check that an argument is an atomic vector

Usage

checkAtomic(x, any.missing = TRUE, all.missing = TRUE, len = NULL,
  min.len = NULL, max.len = NULL, unique = FALSE, names = NULL)
assertAtomic(x, any.missing = TRUE, all.missing = TRUE, len = NULL,
  min.len = NULL, max.len = NULL, unique = FALSE, names = NULL,
  .var.name)
testAtomic(x, any.missing = TRUE, all.missing = TRUE, len = NULL,
  min.len = NULL, max.len = NULL, unique = FALSE, names = NULL)

Arguments

x

[ANY] Object to check.

.var.name

[character(1)] Name for x. Defaults to a heuristic to determine the name using deparse and substitute.

any.missing

[logical(1)] Are vectors with missing values allowed? Default is TRUE.

all.missing

[logical(1)] Are vectors with only missing values allowed? Default is TRUE.

len

[integer(1)] Exact expected length of x.

min.len

[integer(1)] Minimal length of x.

max.len

[integer(1)] Maximal length of x.

unique

[logical(1)] Must all values be unique? Default is FALSE.

names

[character(1)] Check for names. See checkNamed for possible values. Default is any which performs no check at all.

Value

• Depending on the function prefix: If the check is successful, all functions return TRUE. If the check is not successful, assertAtmoic throws an error message, testAtmoic returns FALSE and checkAtmoic returns a string with the error message.
