Length retrieval function for RLum-class objects

Source: R/Luminescence-generics.R, R/RLum.Analysis-class.R, R/RLum.Data.Curve-class.R, and 1 more
length_RLum.Rd

The function provides a generalised access point for specific RLum objects. Depending on the input object, the corresponding function will be selected.

Usage

length_RLum(object)

# S4 method for class 'RLum.Analysis'
length_RLum(object)

# S4 method for class 'RLum.Data.Curve'
length_RLum(object)

# S4 method for class 'RLum.Results'
length_RLum(object)

Arguments

object

RLum (required): S4 object of class RLum

Value

An integer indicating the length of the object.

Functions

  • length_RLum(RLum.Analysis): Returns the number of records stored in the object.

  • length_RLum(RLum.Data.Curve): Returns the number of channels in the curve, which is the maximum of the value time/temperature of the curve (corresponding to the stimulation length).

  • length_RLum(RLum.Results): Returns the number of stored data elements.

Function version

0.1.0
