Name

SPVM::R::NDArray::String - N-Dimensional Array of string Type.

Description

R::NDArray::String class in SPVM represents n-dimensional array of string type.

Usage

  use R::NDArray::String;
  
  my $ndarray = R::NDArray::String->new({data => [(string)"a", "b", "c", "d", "e", "f"], dim => [3, 2]});

Super Class

R::NDArray

Field

data

method data : string[] ();

Same as R::NDArray#data method, but the return type is different.

Class Methods

new

static method new : R::NDArray::String ($options : object[] = undef);

Creates a new R::NDArray::String given the options $options and returns it.

This method calls R::NDArray#init method given the options $options.

Instance Methods

create_default_data

method create_default_data : string[] ($length : int = 0);

Creates a default data given the length $length and returns it.

The default data is created by the following code.

  my $default_data = new string[$length];

Exceptions:

The length $length must be more than or equal to 0. Otherwise an exception is thrown.

elem_to_string

method elem_to_string : string ($data : string[], $data_index : int);

Converts an element $data at index $data_index to a string and returns it.

The string is created by the following code.

  my $string = copy $data->[$data_index];

elem_assign

method elem_assign : void ($dist_data : string[], $dist_data_index : int, $src_data : string[], $src_data_index : int);

Assigns the element $src_data at index $src_data_index to the element $dist_data at index $dist_data_index.

elem_clone

method elem_clone : void ($dist_data : string[], $dist_data_index : int, $src_data : string[], $src_data_index : int);

Clones the element $src_data at index $src_data_indext to the element $dist_data at index $dist_data_index.

The clone is created by the following code.

  $dist_data->[$dist_data_index] = copy $src_data->[$src_data_index];

elem_cmp

method elem_cmp : int ($a_data : string[], $a_data_index : int, $b_data : string[], $b_data_index : int);

Compares the element $a_data at index $a_data_index and the element $b_data at index $b_data_index using the string comparison operator cmp and returns the result.

elem_is_na

method elem_is_na : int ($data : object, $data_index : int);

Checks if an element represets NA.

If the element $data at index $data_index is not defined, returns 1, otherwise returns 0.

clone

method clone : R::NDArray::String ($shallow : int = 0);

Same as R::NDArray#clone method, but the return type is different.

slice

method slice : R::NDArray::String ($indexes_product : R::NDArray::Int[]);

Same as R::NDArray#slice method, but the return type is different.

to_string_buffer_ndarray

method to_string_buffer_ndarray : R::NDArray::StringBuffer ();

Converts this n-dimensional array to a n-dimensional array of R::NDArray::StringBuffer and returns it.

Each element is converted to a StringBuffer object by the following code.

  my $ret_elem = (StringBuffer)undef;
  if ($elem) {
    $ret_elem = StringBuffer->new($elem);
  }

to_time_piece_ndarray

method to_time_piece_ndarray : R::NDArray::Time::Piece ();

Converts this n-dimensional array to a n-dimensional array of R::NDArray::Time::Piece and returns it.

Each element is converted to a Time::Piece object by the following code.

  my $ret_elem = (Time::Piece)undef;
  if ($elem) {
    eval { $ret_elem = Time::Piece->strptime($elem, "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"); }
    
    unless ($ret_elem) {
      eval { $ret_elem = Time::Piece->strptime($elem, "%Y-%m-%d"); }
    }
  }

Every string format must be %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S or %Y-%m-%d if the element is defined.
