parse_ibge_value: Parse IBGE value column

Description

Converts the character value column returned by ibge_variables() to numeric, handling IBGE special value conventions.

Usage

parse_ibge_value(x)

Value

A numeric vector where:

• "-" becomes 0

• "..", "..." and "X" become NA_real_

• All other values are converted with as.numeric()

Arguments

x

A character or numeric vector of IBGE values.

Details

According to IBGE's tabular presentation standards, the value column may contain special character codes instead of numbers:

Code	Meaning
-	Numeric value equal to zero (not from rounding)
..	Not applicable
...	Data not available
X	Suppressed to avoid identifying individual respondents

Examples

parse_ibge_value(c("1.5", "10", "-", "..", "...", "X", NA))
#> [1] 1.5  10.0  0.0   NA    NA    NA    NA

if (FALSE) {
# Typical usage after ibge_variables()
library(dplyr)

ibge_variables(7060, localities = "BR") |>
  mutate(value = parse_ibge_value(value))
}
