size-methods: Compute the Size of Sequences

Description

size computes the size of a sequence. This can be either the number of (distinct) itemsets (elements) or items occurring in a sequence.

ritems compute the minimum (maximum) number an item or itemset (element) is repeatedly occurring in a sequence.

Usage

# S4 method for sequences
size(x, type = c("size", "itemsets", "length", "items"))
# S4 method for sequences
ritems(x, type = c("min", "max"), itemsets = FALSE)

Value

Returns a vector of counts corresponding with the elements

of object x.

Arguments

x

an object.

type, itemsets

as string (logical) value specifying the type of count to be computed.
