Helper function to check whether an input is a numeric vector.

Usage

check_numeric_vector(x, ...)

Arguments

x

input to check

...

Arguments passed on to checkmate::check_numeric

lower

[numeric(1)]
Lower value all elements of x must be greater than or equal to.

upper

[numeric(1)]
Upper value all elements of x must be lower than or equal to.

finite

[logical(1)]
Check for only finite values? Default is FALSE.

any.missing

[logical(1)]
Are vectors with missing values allowed? Default is TRUE.

all.missing

[logical(1)]
Are vectors with no non-missing values allowed? Default is TRUE. Note that empty vectors do not have non-missing values.

len

[integer(1)]
Exact expected length of x.

min.len

[integer(1)]
Minimal length of x.

max.len

[integer(1)]
Maximal length of x.

unique

[logical(1)]
Must all values be unique? Default is FALSE.

sorted

[logical(1)]
Elements must be sorted in ascending order. Missing values are ignored.

names

[character(1)]
Check for names. See checkNamed for possible values. Default is “any” which performs no check at all. Note that you can use checkSubset to check for a specific set of names.

typed.missing

[logical(1)]
If set to FALSE (default), all types of missing values (NA, NA_integer_, NA_real_, NA_character_ or NA_character_) as well as empty vectors are allowed while type-checking atomic input. Set to TRUE to enable strict type checking.

null.ok

[logical(1)]
If set to TRUE, x may also be NULL. In this case only a type check of x is performed, all additional checks are disabled.

Value

Returns TRUE if the check was successful and a string with an error message otherwise.
