gintervals.2d.union: Unites two sets of 2D intervals

Description

Unites two sets of two-dimensional intervals.

Usage

gintervals.2d.union(intervals1 = NULL, intervals2 = NULL)

Value

A data frame with the six 2D interval columns, sorted as by gintervals.2d.

Arguments

intervals1, intervals2

two-dimensional intervals (a data frame or the name of an intervals set)

Details

Concatenates 'intervals1' and 'intervals2' and returns the combined set sorted as by gintervals.2d. Overlapping rectangles are not merged: because the union of two rectangles is not generally a rectangle, the result is simply the combined set (unlike the 1D gintervals.union).
