Method new()

Create a new instance of this class.

Usage

CFAxisCharacter$new(grp, nc_var, nc_dim, orientation, values)

Arguments

grp

The group that contains the netCDF variable.

nc_var

The netCDF variable that describes this instance.

nc_dim

The netCDF dimension that describes the dimensionality.

orientation

The orientation (X, Y, Z, or T) or "" if different or unknown.

values

The character dimension values of this axis.

---

Method brief()

Some details of the axis

Usage

CFAxisCharacter$brief()

Returns

A 1-row data.frame with some details of the axis.

---

Method indexOf()

Given a vector of character strings x, find their indices in the values of the axis.

Usage

CFAxisCharacter$indexOf(x, method = "constant")

Arguments

x

Vector of character strings to find axis indices for.

method

Ignored.

Returns

Numeric vector of the same length as x. Values of x outside of the range of the values in the axis are returned as NA.

---

Method clone()

The objects of this class are cloneable with this method.

Usage

CFAxisCharacter$clone(deep = FALSE)

Arguments

deep

Whether to make a deep clone.
