This utility function allows for free editrule definition
  in a file. One can extract only the numerical
  (<code>type='num'</code>), only the categorical
  (<code>type='cat'</code>) or all edits (default) in which case
  an <code><a href="/link/editset?package=editrules&version=2.7.2" rd-options="" data-mini-rdoc="editrules::editset">editset</a></code> is returned. The function first
  parses all assignments in the file, so it is possible to
  compute or read a list of categories defining a datamodel
  for example.

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.
