colorSpec (version 1.5-0)

organization: organization of a colorSpec object

Description

Retrieve or set the organization of a colorSpec object.

Usage

# S3 method for colorSpec
organization(x)
# S3 method for colorSpec
organization(x) <- value

Value

organization(x) returns a valid organization: 'vector', 'matrix', 'df.col', or 'df.row'.

Arguments

x

a colorSpec R object

value

a valid organization: 'vector', 'matrix', 'df.col', or 'df.row'.

Details

If organization(x) is "vector", then x is a vector representing a single spectrum. Compare this with stats::ts().

If organization(x) is "matrix", then x is a matrix and the spectra are stored in the columns.

If organization(x) is "df.col", then x is a data.frame with M+1 columns, where M is the number of spectra. The wavelengths are stored in column 1, and the spectra in columns 2:(M+1). This organization is good for printing to the console, and writing to files.

If the organization of x is "df.row", then x is a data.frame with N rows, where N is the number of spectra. The spectra are stored in the last column, which is a matrix with the name "spectra". The other columns preceding spectra (if present) contain extra data associated with the spectra; see extradata.

Examples

organization(Hoya)              # returns 'df.row'
organization(Hoya) = 'matrix'   # extradata in Hoya is silently discarded
