dim.garray {garray}

Dimensions of a generalized array

Description

Retrieve or set the dimension of a generalized array.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'garray'
dim(x)

## S3 replacement method for class 'garray'
dim(x) <- value

Arguments

x

An generalized array.

value

An integer (can be coerced from double numeric) vector, with names.

Details

The functions dim and dim<- are internal generic primitive functions. Here dim.garray and dim<-.garray are methods for 'garray's, which returns and setting with the named dimensions (margins). The two function is usually used as, for example, dim(arr) and dim(arr) <- c(A=3,B=2). Native R saves the names of dim but seldom uses it. However, it is undocumented and not stable because some functions discard it (like: t()) . This package will totally neglect it but keeps the margins in dimnames.
