gtrack.create: Creates a track from a track expression

Description

Creates a track from a track expression.

Usage

gtrack.create(
  track = NULL,
  description = NULL,
  expr = NULL,
  iterator = NULL,
  band = NULL
)

Value

None.

Arguments

track

track name

description

a character string description

expr

track expression

iterator

track expression iterator. If 'NULL' iterator is determined implicitly based on track expression.

band

track expression band. If 'NULL' no band is used.

Details

This function creates a new track named track. The values of the track are determined by evaluation of 'expr' - a numeric track expression. The type of the new track is determined by the type of the iterator. 'Fixed bin', 'Sparse' or 'Rectangles' track can be created accordingly. 'description' is added as a track attribute.

## Creates a new track that is a sum of values from 'dense' and
## 2 * non-nan values of 'sparse' track. The new track type is
## Dense with a bin size that equals to '70'.
