disindex-class {disordR}

Experimental class "disindex"

Description

Experimental disindex class provides a disordR-compliant method for indexing disord objects. The idea is that which(x), where x is Boolean of class disord, should have meaning under disordR discipline. Thus which() gives a disindex object. This object can be used as an index for other disord objects. One application would be the dismat class of matrices, currently under development.

Function values() coerces its argument to an integer vector.

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form new("disindex", ...), although which() is more natural.

Slots

value:

Numeric vector

hash:

Object of class character that specifies the hash code
