ctdUpdateHeader: Update a CTD Header [defunct]

Description

WARNING: This function will be removed soon; see oce-defunct.

Usage

ctdUpdateHeader(x, debug = FALSE)

Arguments

x

A ctd object, i.e. one inheriting from ctd-class.

debug

an integer specifying whether debugging information is to be printed during the processing. This is a general parameter that is used by many oce functions. Generally, setting debug=0 turns off the printing, while higher values suggest that more information be printed. If one function calls another, it usually reduces the value of debug first, so that a user can often obtain deeper debugging by specifying higher debug values.

Value

A new ctd-class object.

Details

Update the header of a ctd object, e.g. adjusting nvalues and the span of each column. This is done automatically by ctdTrim, for example.
