Details

Until March 2015, this operation was carried out with the + operator, but at that time, the syntax was flagged by the development version of R, so it was changed to the present form.

Examples

library(oce)
data(ctd)
ctd2 <- ctd
ctd2[["temperature"]] <- ctd2[["temperature"]] + 0.5
ctd2[["latitude"]] <- ctd2[["latitude"]] + 0.1
section <- as.section(c("ctd", "ctd2"))
ctd3 <- ctd
ctd3[["temperature"]] <- ctd[["temperature"]] + 1
ctd3[["latitude"]] <- ctd[["latitude"]] + 0.1
ctd3[["station"]] <- "Stn 3"
sectionAddStation(section, ctd3)
