spread {photobiology}R Documentation

Expanse

Description

A method that returns the expanse (max(x) - min(x)) for R objects. In particular the wavelength [nm] expanse of the wavelength range of objects of classes waveband or of class generic_spct or derived (or the expanse of values in a numeric vector).

Usage

spread(x, ...)

wl_expanse(x, ...)

expanse(x, ...)

## Default S3 method:
expanse(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'numeric'
expanse(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'waveband'
expanse(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'generic_spct'
expanse(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'generic_mspct'
expanse(x, ..., idx = "spct.idx")

Arguments

x

an R object

...

not used in current version

idx

character Name of the column with the names of the members of the collection of spectra.

Value

A numeric value equal to max(x) - min(x). In the case of spectral objects wavelength difference [nm]. For any other R object, according to available specialised methods of min and max.
