match-methods: Match Objects

Description

match finds the positions of first matches of a collection of sequences or sequence rules in an object of the same class.

%in% indicates matches of the left in the right operand. If the right operand is a vector of item labels indicates if a sequence contains any of the items given.

%ain% indicates if a sequence contains all the items given as the right operand.

%pin% indicates if a sequence contains any item matching the regular expression given as the right operand.

%ein% indicates if a sequence contains any itemset containing all the items given as the right operand.

duplicated indicates duplicate occurrences of sequences or sequence rules.

Usage

# S4 method for sequences,sequences
match(x, table, nomatch = NA_integer_, incomparables = NULL)
# S4 method for sequencerules,sequencerules
match(x, table, nomatch = NA_integer_, incomparables = NULL)
## S4 methods for signature 'sequences, character':
x %in%  table
x %ain% table
x %pin% table
x %ein% table
# S4 method for sequences
duplicated(x, incomparables = FALSE)
# S4 method for sequencerules
duplicated(x, incomparables = FALSE)

Value

For match returns an integer vector of the same length as

x containing the position in table of the first match, or if there is no match the value of nomatch.

For %in%, %ain%, and %pin% returns a logical vector indicating for each element of x if a match was found in the right operand.

For duplicated a logical vector corresponding with the

elements of x.

Arguments

x

an object.

table

an object (of the same class as x).

nomatch

the value to be returned in the case of no match.

incomparables

not used.
