rounding: Detect Numerical Rounding

Description

Given a numeric vector, or an object containing numeric spatial coordinates, determine whether the values have been rounded to a certain number of decimal places.

Usage

rounding(x)

# S3 method for default rounding(x)

# S3 method for ppp rounding(x)

# S3 method for pp3 rounding(x)

# S3 method for ppx rounding(x)

Arguments

x

A numeric vector, or an object containing numeric spatial coordinates.

Value

An integer.

Details

For a numeric vector x, this function determines whether the values have been rounded to a certain number of decimal places.

  • If the entries of x are not all integers, then rounding(x) returns the smallest number of digits d after the decimal point such that round(x, digits=d) is identical to x. For example if rounding(x) = 2 then the entries of x are rounded to 2 decimal places, and are multiples of 0.01.

  • If all the entries of x are integers, then rounding(x) returns -d, where d is the smallest number of digits before the decimal point such that round(x, digits=-d) is identical to x. For example if rounding(x) = -3 then the entries of x are multiples of 1000. If rounding(x) = 0 then the entries of x are integers but not multiples of 10.

  • If all entries of x are equal to 0, the rounding is not determined, and a value of NULL is returned.

For a point pattern (object of class "ppp") or similar object x containing numeric spatial coordinates, this procedure is applied to the spatial coordinates.
