seqstatl

a data frame or matrix containing sequence data.

data

the list of columns containing the sequences. Default <code>NULL</code> means all columns. Whether the sequences are in the compressed (character strings) or extended format is automatically detected from the number of columns.

the format of the sequence data set. One of <code>"STS"</code>, <code>"SPS"</code>, <code>"DSS"</code>. Default is <code>"STS"</code>. The <code>seqstatl</code> function uses the <code><a href="/link/seqformat?package=TraMineR&version=1.8-9" rd-options="" data-mini-rdoc="TraMineR::seqformat">seqformat</a></code> function to tra

format

Returns a list containing distinct states or events found in a data frame or matrix containing sequence data, the alphabet.

Data handling

This is a toolbox for the manipulation, description and rendering of sequences, and more generally the mining of sequence data in the field of social sciences. Although the toolbox is primarily intended for analyzing state or event sequences that describe life courses such as family formation histories or professional careers, its features also apply to many other kinds of categorical sequence data. It accepts many different sequence representations as input and provides tools for converting sequences from one format to another. It offers several functions for describing and rendering sequences, for computing distances between sequences with different metrics (among which optimal matching), original dissimilarity-based analysis tools, and simple functions for extracting the most frequent subsequences and identifying the most discriminating ones among them. A user's guide can be found on the TraMineR web page.
