util_parse_assignments: Utility function to parse assignments

Description

This function parses labels & level assignments in the format 1 = male | 2 = female. The function also handles m = male | f = female, but this would not match the metadata concept. The split-character can be given, if not the default from SPLIT_CHAR is to be used, but this would also violate the metadata concept.

Usage

util_parse_assignments(
  text,
  split_char = SPLIT_CHAR,
  multi_variate_text = FALSE
)

Value

the parsed assignments as a named list

Arguments

text

Text to be parsed

split_char

multi_variate_text
