cdb_flatten.Rd
Converts a CompadreDB object to a flat data frame by extracting the data
slot, and splitting the mat
column into separate columns for each
component (matrices matA
, matU
, matF
, matC
, and
vectors MatrixClassAuthor
, and MatrixClassOrganized
). The
component matrices and vectors within the six new columns are stored in
string format so that the database can be written to a flat file format such
as csv (see string_representation).
cdb_flatten(cdb)
cdb | A CompadreDB object |
---|
A data frame based on the data slot of cdb
, but with the
column mat
replaced by six separate columns (for matrices
matA
, matU
, matF
, matC
, and vectors
MatrixClassAuthor
, and MatrixClassOrganized
), whose elements
are matrices or vectors in string representation.
