Arguments

x

A factor for is_num_fac() and a character vector for is_num_chr()

Examples

Run this code
# numeric factor levels
f1 <- factor(c(NA, 1, 3, NA, 2, 4))
is_num_fac(f1)

# not completeley numeric factor levels
f2 <- factor(c(NA, "C", 1, 3, "A", NA, 2, 4))
is_num_fac(f2)

# not completeley numeric factor levels
f3 <- factor(c("Justus", "Bob", "Peter"))
is_num_fac(f3)

is_num_chr(c("a", "1"))
is_num_chr(c("2", "1"))
