as.ordertable: Convert an order table with DNS entries to a nice order table
Description
Given an ordertable such as F1_table_2017 which is a
“wikitable” object, function as.ordertable() returns a
nicified version in which entries such as DNS are replaced with zeros.
Finishing competitors are assigned numbers \(1-n\) with no gaps; the
function can be used to extract a subset of competitors.
Function ordertable2supp() offers similar functionality but
returns a hyper2 object directly.
Usage
as.ordertable(w)
Arguments
w
A generalized ordertable, a wikitable
Value
Returns an ordertable suitable for coercion to a hyper2 object.
Details
Operates columnwise, and treats any entry not coercible to numeric as
DNF.
