Data Modification By Modifying Rules

Description

Data often contain errors and missing data. Experts can often correct commonly occuring errors based on simple conditional rules. This package facilitates the expression, management, and application of such rules on data sets.

The general workflow in dcmodify follows the following pattern.

• Define or read a set of rules with modifier.

• modify data with the modification rules.

• Examine the results either graphically or by summary.

There are several convenience functions that allow one to define modification rules from the commandline, through a (freeform or yaml) file and to investigate and maintain the rules themselves. Please have a look at the introductory vignette
