threeDarr {BurStFin}

Combine matrices into 3D array

Description

Returns a three-dimensional array given one or more matrices and instructions on how to combine them.

Usage

threeDarr(..., rep = 1, union = TRUE, slicenames = NULL)

Arguments

...

one or more matrices.

rep

an integer saying how many times to replicate the slices.

union

logical value: if TRUE, then the union of row and column names is created in the output. If FALSE, then the intersection is done.

slicenames

a character vector with length equal to the number of slices in the resulting array.

Value

an array with the first two dimensions being the union or intersection of the first two dimensions of the input matrices, and third dimension equal to the number of input matrices times the number of replications.

Details

The full name of arguments rep, union and slicenames must be given (no abbreviations) because they come after the three-dots construct.
