StripAttr {DescTools}

Remove Attributes from an Object

Description

For convenience we sometimes want to strip some or all attributes in a oneliner.

Usage

SetAttr(x, attr, attr_val)
StripAttr(x, attr_names = NULL)

Arguments

x

the object whose attributes should be removed or to which an attribute should be added.

attr

name of a new attribute
