get.sdcProblem {sdcTable}

query sdcProblem-objects depending on argument type

Description

query sdcProblem-objects depending on argument type

Usage

get.sdcProblem(object, type)

## S4 method for signature 'sdcProblem,character'
get.sdcProblem(object, type)

Arguments

object

an object of class sdcProblem

type

a character vector of length 1 defining what to calculate|return|modify. Allowed types are:

• dataObj: a list containing the (raw) input data

• problemInstance: return the current problem instance

• partition: a list containing information on the subtables that are required to be protected as well as information on the processing order of the subtables

• dimInfo: information on the variables defining the hierarchical table

• indicesDealtWith: a set of indices that have already been dealt with during the protection algorithmus

• startI: current level at which subtables need to be protected (useful when restarting HITAS|HYPERCUBE)

• startJ: current number of the subtable within a given level that needs to be protected (useful when restarting HITAS|HYPERCUBE)

• innerAndMarginalCellInfo: for a given problem, get indices of inner- and marginal table cells

Value

information from objects of class sdcProblem depending on argument type

• an object of class dataObj (or NULL) if type matches 'dataObj'

• an object of class problemInstance (or NULL) if type matches 'problemInstance'

• a list (or NULL) if argument type matches 'partition' containing the following elements:

  • element 'groups': list with each list-element being a character vector specifying a specific level-group

  • element 'indices': list with each list-element being a numeric vector defining indices of a subtable

  • element 'strIDs': list with each list-element being a character vector defining IDs of a subtable

  • element 'nrGroups': numeric vector of length 1 defining the total number of groups that have to be considered

  • element 'nrTables': numeric vector of length 1 defining the total number of subtables that have to be considered

• a list (or NULL) if argument type matches 'innerAndMarginalCellInfo' containing the following elements:

  • element 'innerCells': character vector specifying ID's of inner cells

  • element 'totCells': character vector specifying ID's of marginal cells

  • element 'indexInnerCells': numeric vector specifying indices of inner cells

  • element 'indexTotCells': numeric vector specifying indices of marginal cells

• an object of class dimInfo (or NULL) if type matches 'dimInfo'

• numeric vector of length 1 if argument type matches 'startI' or 'startJ'

Note

internal function
