mkin (version 1.2.6)

mkindsg: A class for dataset groups for mkin

Description

A container for working with datasets that share at least one compound, so that combined evaluations are desirable.

Time normalisation factors are initialised with a value of 1 for each dataset if no data are supplied.

Usage

# S3 method for mkindsg
print(x, data = FALSE, verbose = data, ...)

Arguments

x

An mkindsg object.

data

Should the mkinds objects be printed with their data?

verbose

Should the mkinds objects be printed?

...

Not used.

Public fields

title

A title for the dataset group

ds

A list of mkinds objects

observed_n

Occurrence counts of compounds in datasets

f_time_norm

Time normalisation factors

meta

A data frame with a row for each dataset, containing additional information in the form of categorical data (factors) or numerical data (e.g. temperature, moisture, or covariates like soil pH).

Methods

Public methods

• mkindsg$new()

• mkindsg$clone()

---

Method new()

Create a new mkindsg object

Usage

mkindsg$new(title = "", ds, f_time_norm = rep(1, length(ds)), meta)

Arguments

title

The title

ds

A list of mkinds objects

f_time_norm

Time normalisation factors

meta

The meta data

---

Method clone()

The objects of this class are cloneable with this method.

Usage

mkindsg$clone(deep = FALSE)

Arguments

deep

Whether to make a deep clone.

Examples

mdsg <- mkindsg$new("Experimental X", experimental_data_for_UBA_2019[6:10])
print(mdsg)
print(mdsg, verbose = TRUE)
print(mdsg, verbose = TRUE, data = TRUE)
