Details

The controller is an 'R6' object, it behaves like a reference object. Some functions ( methods) can have a side effect on the controller and modify it internally. Technically speaking we talk about chaining not piping here. However , using pmx_copy user can work on a copy of the controller.

By default the copy does not keep global parameters set using pmx_settings.

Value

an object of pmxClass

Examples

ctr <- theophylline()
cctr <- ctr %>% pmx_copy()
## Any change in the ctr has no side effect in the ctr and vice versa
