asInteger: Convert an argument to an integer

Description

asInteger is intended to be used for vectors while asInt is a specialization for scalar integers and asCount for scalar non-negative integers. Convertible are (a) atomic vectors with all elements NA and (b) double vectors with all elements being within tol range of an integer.

Usage

asInteger(x, tol = sqrt(.Machine$double.eps), lower = -Inf, upper = Inf,
  any.missing = TRUE, all.missing = TRUE, len = NULL, min.len = NULL,
  max.len = NULL, unique = FALSE, sorted = FALSE, names = NULL,
  .var.name = vname(x))

asCount(x, na.ok = FALSE, positive = FALSE, tol = sqrt(.Machine$double.eps), .var.name = vname(x))

asInt(x, na.ok = FALSE, lower = -Inf, upper = Inf, tol = sqrt(.Machine$double.eps), .var.name = vname(x))

Arguments

x

[any] Object to convert.

tol

[double(1)] Numerical tolerance used to check whether a double or complex can be converted. Default is sqrt(.Machine$double.eps).

lower

[numeric(1)] Lower value all elements of x must be greater than.

upper

[numeric(1)] Upper value all elements of x must be lower than.

any.missing

[logical(1)] Are vectors with missing values allowed? Default is TRUE.

all.missing

[logical(1)] Are vectors with only missing values allowed? Default is TRUE.

len

[integer(1)] Exact expected length of x.

min.len

[integer(1)] Minimal length of x.

max.len

[integer(1)] Maximal length of x.

unique

[logical(1)] Must all values be unique? Default is FALSE.

sorted

[logical(1)] Elements must be sorted in ascending order. Missing values are ignored.

names

[character(1)] Check for names. See checkNamed for possible values. Default is “any” which performs no check at all. Note that you can use checkSubset to check for a specific set of names.

.var.name

[character(1)] Name of the checked object to print in error messages. Defaults to the heuristic implemented in vname.

na.ok

[logical(1)] Are missing values allowed? Default is FALSE.

positive

[logical(1)] Must x be positive (>= 1)? Default is FALSE.

Value

Converted x.

Details

This function does not distinguish between NA, NA_integer_, NA_real_, NA_complex_ NA_character_ and NaN.
