Allows to get and set construct poles.
Replaces the older functions getConstructNames, getConstructNames2,
and eNames which are deprecated.
Usage
constructs(x, collapse = FALSE, sep = " - ")
constructs(x, i, j) <- value
leftpoles(x)
leftpoles(x, position) <- value
rightpoles(x)
rightpoles(x, position) <- valueArguments
- x
A repgrid object.
- collapse
Return vector with both poles instead.
- sep
Separator if
collapse = TRUE, default is" - ".- i, j
Row and column Index of repgrid matrix.
- value
Character vector of construct poles names.
- position
Index where to insert construct
Examples
# shorten object name
x <- boeker
