makecatlg {FrF2}

Function for creating a class catlg catalogue from a vector of generators

Description

creates a class catlg catalogue with a single element for use in functions colpick or FrF2

Usage

makecatlg(k, gen) 

Arguments

k

number of base factors spanning a full factorial with the desired number of runs

gen

generators as a numeric vector of Yates column numbers

Details

If generators are available in a different format, they must be transformed to Yates column numbers.

For a character vector genc with elements like ABC, ADE, etc., a code for obtaining Yates columns with order preserved is sapply(1:length(genc), function(obj) which(names(Yates)==genc[obj])) (a solution with which applied to the entire vector at once does not preserve the order).

Yet different formats like 123, 145, etc., can e.g. be preprocessed by picking the suitable elements from Letters, e.g. paste(Letters[as.numeric(unlist(strsplit("123","")))],collapse="").

Value

The function returns a list of class catlg with a single element.

Note

This package is still under development, but does already provide useful and well-tested results.
