print.fechner {fechner}

Print Method for Objects of Class fechner

Description

S3 method to print objects of the class fechner.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'fechner'
print(x, ...)

Arguments

x

a required object of class fechner, obtained from a call to the function fechner.

...

further arguments to be passed to or from other methods. They are ignored in this function.

Details

The print method prints the main results obtained from Fechnerian scaling analyses, which are the overall Fechnerian distances and the geodesic loops.

Value

If the argument x is of required type, print.fechner prints the overall Fechnerian distances and the geodesic loops, and invisibly returns x.
