detect_move: Detect the primary move between two model codes

Description

Compares a previous model code with a new one and identifies the primary intended change. If an original_neighbor is provided, this is used to determine the intended change, ignoring any secondary modifications introduced by validation.

Usage

detect_move(prev_string, new_string, original_neighbor = NULL)

Value

A list with element, from, and to

describing the primary change.

Arguments

prev_string

A named numeric vector: the starting model code.

new_string

A named numeric vector: the validated model code.

original_neighbor

Optional named numeric vector: the original neighbor before validation. If provided, this is used to identify the primary change.

Examples

prev <- c(no.cmpt = 2, eta.vc = 1)
orig <- c(no.cmpt = 3, eta.vc = 1)  # original neighbor
new  <- c(no.cmpt = 3, eta.vc = 0)  # validated neighbor (extra fix)
detect_move(prev, new, original_neighbor = orig)
