Given an ordertable such as F1_table_2017
which is a
“wikitable” object, function as.ordertable()
returns a
nicified version in which entries such as DNS are replaced with zeros.
Finishing competitors are assigned numbers \(1-n\) with no gaps; the
function can be used to extract a subset of competitors.
Function ordertable2supp()
offers similar functionality but
returns a hyper2
object directly.
