is_photon_based: Query if a spectrum contains photon- or energy-based data.

Description

Functions to query if source_spct and response_spct objects contain photon-based or energy-based data.

Usage

is_photon_based(x)

is_energy_based(x)

Value

is_photon_based returns a logical value, TRUE if its argument is a source_spct

or a response_spct object that contains photon base data and

FALSE otherwise, but returns NA for any other R object, including those belonging other generic_spct-derived classes.

is_energy_based returns a logical value, TRUE if its argument is a source_spct

or a response_spct object that contains energy base data and

FALSE otherwise, but returns NA for any other R object, including those belonging other generic_spct-derived classes

Arguments

x

any R object
