util.list: Functions to Work with Lists

Description

Combine lists or perform arithmetic operations on elements of lists.

Usage

lsub(x, y) lsum(x, y) pprod(x, y) which.pmax(elts, na.rm = FALSE, pmin = FALSE)

Arguments

x
list
y
list (lsub, lsum), or numeric (pprod)
elts
list, numeric vectors for which to find maximum values (in parallel) (which.pmax).
na.rm
logical, remove missing values?
pmin
logical, find minimum values instead of maximum ones?

Value

lsub, lsum and pprod return lists.

Details

lsub subtracts the elements of list y from the respective ones in list x. lsum sums the respective elements of lists x and y. pprod multiplies each element of list x by the respective numeric value in y.

which.pmax takes a list of equal-length numeric vectors (or objects that can be coerced to numeric) in elts and returns the index of the vector holding the maximum value at each position. If na.rm is TRUE, values of NA are removed; if pmin is TRUE the function finds locations of the minimum values instead.
