R Documentation

Read the results file from a Numerical or Visual Predictive Check run in PsN

Description

This function reads in a results file from running either the PsN command vpc or npc. The function then parses the file and passes the result to plotting functions.

Usage

read.npc.vpc.results(
  vpc.results = NULL,
  npc.results = NULL,
  verbose = FALSE,
  ...
)

Arguments

`vpc.results`	The name of the results file from running the PsN command `vcp`. Often this is named ‘vpc_results.csv’. If the file is in a directory different then the working directory then you can define a relative or absolute path to the file by, for example, ‘./vpc_strat_WT_4_mirror_5/vpc_results.csv’.
`npc.results`	The name of the results file from running the PsN command `npc`. Often this is named ‘npc_results.csv’. relative or absolute paths to the file are allowed as for `vpc.results`.
`verbose`	Text messages passed to screen or not.
`...`	arguments passed to other functions.

Details

One of vpc.results or npc.results are necessary. If both or none are defined then the function does nothing and a NULL is returned from the function.

Value

A list of values is returned.

`model.file`	The model file that PsN ran either the `npc` or `vpc` with
`dv.var`	The dependent variable used in the calculations.
`idv.var`	The independent variable used in the calculations. `NULL` if `npc.results` is used.
`num.tables`	The number of separate tables in the results file.
`by.interval`	The conditioning interval for the stratification variable, only returned if `vpc.results` is used.
`result.tables`	The results tables from the results file. this is a list.
