dataObj-class: S4 class describing a dataObj-object
Description
This class models a data object containing the 'raw' data for a given problem
as well as information on the position of the dimensional variables, the count
variable, additional numerical variables, weights or sampling weights within the
raw data. Also slot 'isMicroData' shows if slow 'rawData' consists of microdata
(multiple observations for each cell are possible, isMicroData==TRUE) or if data
have already been aggregated (isMicroData==FALSE)
Details
- slot
rawData
: - list with each element being a vector of either codes of dimensional variables, counts, weights that should be used for secondary cell suppression problem, numerical variables or sampling weights.
- slot
dimVarInd
: - numeric vector (or NULL) defining the indices of the dimensional variables within slot 'rawData'
- slot
freqVarInd
: - numeric vector (or NULL) defining the indices of the frequency variables within slot 'rawData'
- slot
numVarInd
: - numeric vector (or NULL) defining the indices of the numerical variables within slot 'rawData'
- slot
weightVarInd
: - numeric vector (or NULL) defining the indices of the variables holding weights within slot 'rawData'
- slot
sampWeightInd
: - numeric vector (or NULL) defining the indices of the variables holding sampling weights within slot 'rawData'
- slot
isMicroData
: - logical vector of length 1 (or NULL) that is TRUE if slot 'rawData' are microData and FALSE otherwise
