converts a 3D-array (e.g. containing landmark coordinates) into a matrix,
one row per specimen or reverse this.
Usage
vecx(x, byrow = FALSE, revert = FALSE, lmdim)
Value
returns a matrix with one row per specimen
Arguments
x
array or matrix
byrow
logical: if TRUE, the resulting vector for each specimen will
be x1,y1,z1,x2,y2,z2,..., and x1,x2,...,y1,y2,...,z1,z2,... otherwise
(default). The same is for reverting the process: if the matrix contains the coordinates as rows like: x1,y1,z1,x2,y2,z2,... set byrow=TRUE
revert
revert the process and convert a matrix with vectorized landmarks back into an array.
