dp_to_number

Convert a vector to 'number' using the specified field descriptor

Open, read data from and modify Data Packages. Data Packages are
an open standard for bundling and describing data sets
(<https://datapackage.org>). When data is read from a Data Package care is
taken to convert the data as much a possible to R appropriate data types.
The package can be extended with plugins for additional data types.
