piar (version 0.8.2)

split.piar_index: Split an index into groups

Description

Split an index into groups of indexes according to a factor, along either the levels or time periods of the index.

Usage

# S3 method for piar_index
split(x, f, drop = FALSE, ..., margin = c("levels", "time"))
# S3 method for piar_index
split(x, f, drop = FALSE, ..., margin = c("levels", "time")) <- value

Value

split() returns a list of index objects for each level in f. The replacement method replaces these values with the corresponding element of value.

Arguments

x

A price index, as made by, e.g., elemental_index().

f

A factor or list of factors to group elements of x.

drop

Should levels that do not occur in f be dropped? By default all levels are kept.

...

Further arguments passed to split.default().

margin

Either 'levels' to split over the levels of x (the default), or 'time' to split over the time periods of x.

value

A list of values compatible with the splitting of x, or something that can be coerced into one, recycled if necessary.
