generateEdits

An <code><a href="/link/editarray?package=editrules&version=2.5-0" rd-options="" data-mini-rdoc="editrules::editarray">editarray</a></code>

Implements the Field Code Forest (FCF) algorithm of
  Garfinkel et al (1986) to derive all essentially new
  implicit edits from an editarray. The FCF is really a
  single, highly unbalanced tree. This algorithm traverses
  the tree, pruning many unnecessary branches, uses
  <code><a href="/link/blocks?package=editrules&version=2.5-0" rd-options="" data-mini-rdoc="editrules::blocks">blocks</a></code> to divide and conquer, and optimizes
  traversing order. See Van der Loo (2012) for a
  description of the algorithms.

Facilitates reading and manipulating (multivariate) data
        restrictions (edit rules) on numerical and categorical data.
        Rules can be defined with common R syntax and parsed to an
        internal (matrix-like format). Rules can be manipulated with
        variable elimination and value substitution methods, allowing
        for feasibility checks and more. Data can be tested against the
        rules and erroneous fields can be found based on Fellegi and
        Holt's generalized principle. Rules dependencies can be
        visualized with using the igraph package.
