Subsetting IQRdataGeneral Objects

Return subset of IQRDataGeneral objact which meets conditions.

# S3 method for class 'IQRdataGENERAL'
subset(x, subset, select, ...)

Arguments

x

object to be subsetted.

subset

logical expression indicating elements or rows to keep.

select

expression, indicating columns to select from a dataGenera object.

...

further arguments to be passed to or from other methods.

Value

An object similar to x containing just the selected rows and columns. Possible attributes doseNAMES, obsNAMES, covInfo and catInfo are subsetted accordingly, see Details.

Details

Subsetting of IQRDataGeneral objects is analogous to subset for data frames. After subsetting, the data structure is re-analyzed:

  1. If elements of doseNAMES are removed by subsetting, the new doseNAMES are reduced and accordingly, unnecessary TAD and DOSE columns are removed or re-labeled. If by subsetting DOSEDx/TADDx columns are removed, the DOSE/TAD column is re-computed taking the minimum of TAD_Dx, line by line, as new TAD column, and selecting the corresponding dose of DOSEDx as DOSE.

  2. If elements of obsNAMES are removed by subsetting, the new obsNAMES are reduced.

  3. If elements of covInfo are removed, e.g. by dropping columns via the select argument, the corresponding rows are removed from the new covInfo table.

  4. If elements of catInfo are removed, e.g. by dropping columns via the select argument, the corresponding rows are removed from the new catInfo table. Furthermore, by subsetting it can happen that levels of the categorical covariates are partially or completely removed. In that case, the new catInfo table is modified accordingly.
