Creates a list of DataSet objects from a data.frame

Creates a list of DataSet objects from a data.frame

Usage

dataSetsFromDataFrame(data)

Arguments

data

A data.frame with at minimum the columns name, xValues, and yValues. Optional standard columns: yErrorValues, xDimension, xUnit, yDimension, yUnit, yErrorType, yErrorUnit, molWeight, lloq. Any additional columns are treated as meta data entries.

Value

A named list of DataSet objects, named by the name column.

Details

Creates DataSet objects from a data.frame with the same structure as returned by dataSetToDataFrame(). Each unique value in the name column results in one DataSet object. Any columns beyond the standard columns (name, xValues, yValues, yErrorValues, xDimension, xUnit, yDimension, yUnit, yErrorType, yErrorUnit, molWeight, lloq) will be added as meta data.

Examples

dataSet <- DataSet$new(name = "MyData")
dataSet$setValues(xValues = c(1, 2, 3), yValues = c(10, 20, 30))
df <- dataSetToDataFrame(dataSet)
dataSets <- dataSetsFromDataFrame(df)
