Re-arrange the dimension of a matrix based on the dimension of another matrix

Description

This function e-arranges the dimension of a matrix based on the dimension of another matrix

Usage

match_mat(fill, dim, missing = TRUE)

Arguments

fill

A matrix that will be used to populate the matrix output

dim

A matrix that will be used to determine the dimensions of the matrix output

missing

Logical; Shall the cells of the non matching rows/columns set to NA? Default to TRUE but can be set to FALSE to set the cells of the non matching rows/columns to 0 instead.

Value

The matrix output with the dimensions rearranged based on the input 'dim' matrix.

Examples

## generate a first region - industry matrix
set.seed(31)
mat1 <- matrix(sample(0:1, 20, replace = TRUE), ncol = 4)
rownames(mat1) <- c("R1", "R2", "R3", "R4", "R5")
colnames(mat1) <- c("I1", "I2", "I3", "I4")

## generate a second region - industry matrix
set.seed(31)
mat2 <- matrix(sample(0:1, 16, replace = TRUE), ncol = 4)
rownames(mat2) <- c("R1", "R2", "R3", "R5")
colnames(mat2) <- c("I1", "I2", "I3", "I4")

## run the function
match_mat(fill = mat1, dim = mat2)
match_mat(fill = mat2, dim = mat1)
match_mat(fill = mat2, dim = mat1, missing = FALSE)
