dict_recombinators_null {miesmuschel}

Null-Recombinator

Description

Null-recombinator that does not perform any operation on its input. Useful in particular with operator-wrappers such as RecombinatorMaybe or RecombinatorCombination.

n_indivs_in and n_indivs_out can be set during construction, where n_indivs_out must be less or equal n_indivs_in. If it is strictly less, then the operation returns only the first n_indivs_out individuals out of each n_indivs_in sized group.

Configuration Parameters

This operator has no configuration parameters.

Supported Operand Types

Supported Domain classes are: p_lgl ('ParamLgl'), p_int ('ParamInt'), p_dbl ('ParamDbl'), p_fct ('ParamFct')

Dictionary

This Recombinator can be created with the short access form rec() (recs() to get a list), or through the the dictionary dict_recombinators in the following way:

# preferred:
rec("null")
recs("null")  # takes vector IDs, returns list of Recombinators

# long form:
dict_recombinators$get("null")

Super classes

Methods

Public methods

• RecombinatorNull$new()

• RecombinatorNull$clone()

Method new()

Initialize base class components of the Recombinator.

Usage

RecombinatorNull$new(n_indivs_in = 1, n_indivs_out = n_indivs_in)

Arguments

n_indivs_in

(integer(1))
Number of individuals to consider at the same time. When operating, the number of input individuals must be divisible by this number. Setting this number to a number unequal 1 is mostly useful when incorporating this operator in wrappers such as RecombinatorMaybe or RecombinatorCombination. Default 1.
The ⁠$n_indivs_in⁠ field will reflect this value.

n_indivs_out

(integer(1))
Number of individuals that result for each n_indivs_in lines of input. Must be at most n_indivs_in. If this is less than n_indivs_in, then only the first n_indivs_out individuals out of each n_indivs_in sized group are returned by an operation. Setting this number to a number unequal 1 is mostly useful when incorporating this operator in wrappers such as RecombinatorMaybe or RecombinatorCombination. Default equal to n_indivs_in.
The ⁠$n_indivs_out⁠ field will reflect this value.

Method clone()

The objects of this class are cloneable with this method.

Usage

RecombinatorNull$clone(deep = FALSE)

Arguments

deep

Whether to make a deep clone.
