RLum.Results-class: Class "RLum.Results"

Description

Object class contains results data from functions (e.g., analyse_SAR.CWOSL).

Usage

# S4 method for RLum.Results
show(object)
# S4 method for RLum.Results
set_RLum(class, originator, .uid, .pid,
  data = list(), info = list())
# S4 method for RLum.Results
get_RLum(object, data.object,
  info.object = NULL, drop = TRUE)
# S4 method for RLum.Results
length_RLum(object)
# S4 method for RLum.Results
names_RLum(object)

Arguments

object

get_RLum; '>RLum.Results (required): an object of class '>RLum.Results to be evaluated

class

set_RLum; character (required): name of the RLum class to create

originator

set_RLum; character (automatic): contains the name of the calling function (the function that produces this object); can be set manually.

.uid

set_RLum; character (automatic): sets an unique ID for this object using the internal C++ function create_UID.

.pid

set_RLum; character (with default): option to provide a parent id for nesting at will.

data

set_RLum; list (optional): a list containing the data to be stored in the object

info

set_RLum; list (optional): a list containing additional info data for the object

data.object

get_RLum; character or numeric: name or index of the data slot to be returned

info.object

get_RLum; character (optional): name of the wanted info element

drop

get_RLum; logical (with default): coerce to the next possible layer (which are data objects, drop = FALSE keeps the original RLum.Results

Value

set_RLum:

Returns an object from the class '>RLum.Results

get_RLum:

Returns:

1. Data object from the specified slot

2. list of data objects from the slots if 'data.object' is vector or

3. an '>RLum.Results for drop = FALSE.

length_RLum

Returns the number of data elements in the RLum.Results object.

names_RLum

Returns the names of the data elements in the object.

Methods (by generic)

• show: Show structure of RLum.Results object

• set_RLum: Construction method for an RLum.Results object.

• get_RLum: Accessor method for RLum.Results object. The argument data.object allows directly accessing objects delivered within the slot data. The default return object depends on the object originator (e.g., fit_LMCurve). If nothing is specified always the first data.object will be returned.

  Note: Detailed specification should be made in combination with the originator slot in the receiving function if results are pipped.

• length_RLum: Returns the length of the object, i.e., number of stored data.objects

• names_RLum: Returns the names data.objects

Slots

data

Object of class "list" containing output data

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form new("RLum.Results", ...).

Examples

# NOT RUN {
showClass("RLum.Results")

##create an empty object from this class
set_RLum(class = "RLum.Results")

##use another function to show how it works

##Basic calculation of the dose rate for a specific date
 dose.rate <-  calc_SourceDoseRate(
   measurement.date = "2012-01-27",
   calib.date = "2014-12-19",
   calib.dose.rate = 0.0438,
   calib.error = 0.0019)

##show object
dose.rate

##get results
get_RLum(dose.rate)

##get parameters used for the calcualtion from the same object
get_RLum(dose.rate, data.object = "parameters")

##alternatively objects can be accessed using S3 generics, such as
dose.rate$parameters
