inverse: Invert an R operator

Description

inverse is a S3 generic method for inverting an R operator in the mathematical sense. Presently, inverses are defined for relational operators, i.e. changing > to <=< code=""> etc.

Usage

inverse(x, ...)

Arguments

x

object representing an R operator

...

additional arguments

Value

inverse returns the inverse in the same form as the x argument. Thus, if a name is provided, a name is returned. If a function is provided, a function is returned.

Details

Arguments will be checked against the defined list of inverses, If an entry exists, the corresponding inverse is returned.
