Given a set of logical vectors, are all of the values true?
Usage
all(…, na.rm = FALSE)
Arguments
…
zero or more logical vectors. Other objects of zero
length are ignored, and the rest are coerced to logical ignoring
any class.
na.rm
logical. If true NA values are removed before
the result is computed.
Value
The value is a logical vector of length one. Let x denote the concatenation of all the logical vectors in
... (after coercion), after removing NAs if requested by
na.rm = TRUE. The value returned is TRUE if all of the values in x are
TRUE (including if there are no values), and FALSE if at
least one of the values in x is FALSE. Otherwise the
value is NA (which can only occur if na.rm = FALSE and
… contains no FALSE values and at least one
NA value).
S4 methods
This is part of the S4 Summary
group generic. Methods for it must use the signature
x, …, na.rm.
Details
This is a generic function: methods can be defined for it
directly or via the Summary group generic.
For this to work properly, the arguments … should be
unnamed, and dispatch is on the first argument. Coercion of types other than integer (raw, double, complex, character,
list) gives a warning as this is often unintentional. This is a primitive function.
