check_ded {enviPat}

Check if a chemical formula is subset in another one

Description

Check if a chemical formula is contained in another chemical formula

Usage

check_ded(formulas, deduct)

Arguments

formulas

Vector with the containing chemical formula(s)

deduct

Chemical formula to be contained ("deduct")

Value

Returns a vector with length of input formulas, with TRUE if deduct is not contained and FALSE otherwise.

Note

Might be used used prior to subtracting a "deduct" chemical formula from that of a molecule when including adducts in the calculation of isotopic patterns. Chemical formulas must conform to what is described in check_chemform.
