are_integerish: Are vectors integer-like?

Description

Wrappers around rlang type predicates that allow multiple objects to be passed. The following documentation is adapted from the rlang documentation:

These predicates check whether R considers a number vector to be integer-like, according to its own tolerance check (which is in fact delegated to the C library). This function is not adapted to data analysis, see the help for base::is.integer() for examples of how to check for whole numbers.

Things to consider when checking for integer-like doubles:

• This check can be expensive because the whole double vector has to be traversed and checked.

• Large double values may be integerish but may still not be coercible to integer. This is because integers in R only support values up to 2^31 - 1 while numbers stored as double can be much larger.

Usage

are_integerish(..., .n = NULL, .finite = NULL, .all = FALSE)
are_scalar_integerish(..., .n = NULL, .finite = NULL, .all = FALSE)
are_bare_integerish(..., .n = NULL, .finite = NULL, .all = FALSE)

Value

Named logical, or unnamed boolean if .all is TRUE.

Arguments

...

Objects to be tested.

.n

Expected lengths of the vectors.

.finite

Whether all values of the vectors are finite. The non-finite values are NA, Inf, -Inf and NaN. Setting this to something other than NULL can be expensive because the whole vector needs to be traversed and checked.

.all

If TRUE, return boolean of whether all arguments returned TRUE.

Details

The optional inputs of .n and .finite can be given inputs that map to the arguments in .... If a unnamed vector/list, the input must either be the same length as the number of arguments given to ..., or length 1: which is then recycled to the number number of arguments given to .... Alternatively, a named vector/list can be given, where the values for matching named elements are passed to the type predicate, but unmatched names are passed NULL.

See Also

are_bare_numeric for testing whether an object is a base numeric type (a bare double or integer vector).

Examples

x <- 10L
y <- 10.0
z <- 10.000001

are_integerish(x, y, z, TRUE)

#' # `.all` can be given to test if all inputs
# evaluate to TRUE
are_integerish(x, y, z, TRUE, .all = TRUE)

# scalar inputs to `.n` and `.finite` are
# recycled to number of inputs
are_integerish(x, y, z, TRUE, .n = 2)

# inputs to `.n` and `.finite` matching the
# number of inputs are applied sequentially
are_integerish(x, y, z, TRUE, .n = c(1, 2, 1, 1))

# named inputs to `.n` and `.finite` are applied
# to the matching input names, with the other inputs
# being given NULL
are_integerish(x, y, z, TRUE, .n = c(y = 2, "TRUE" = 1))
