Miscellaneous Functions for Creating Adaptive Functions and ScriptsNCmisc-package NCmisc

Function to add commas for large numberscomify
Print out comma separated list of values in X, truncating if many (good for error messages)comma.list
Simulate a correlated variablecor.with

Obtain an index of all instances of values with duplicates (ordered)dup.pairs
Estimate the memory required for an object.estimate.memory
Does object exist ignoring functions The exists() function can tell you whether an object exists at all, or whether an object exists with a certain type, but it can be useful to know whether an object exists as genuine data (and not a function) which can be important when a variable or object is accidently or intentionally given the same name as a function. This function usually returns a logical value as to the existence of the object (ignoring functions) but can also be set to return the non-function type if the object exists.exists.not.function

Summary of RAM footprint for all R objects in the current session. Not my function, but taken from an R-Help response by Elizabeth Purdom, at Berkeley. Simply applies the function 'object.size' to the objects in ls(). Also very similar to an example in the 'Help' for the utils::object.size() function.memory.summary

Wrapper for the base table() function that includes zero counts - useful to get consistent dimensions across multiple runs with different responding patterns Forces a 2d table with every possible cell (allow zero counts) Only for tables where there are two vectors entered, while the base function allows for more, or also allows just 1. If the wrong arguments are entered, attempts to pass the input to the base version of 'table' instead.table2d
