rowDiffs {MatrixGenerics}

R Documentation

Calculates the difference between each element of a row (column) of a matrix-like object

Description

Calculates the difference between each element of a row (column) of a matrix-like object.

Usage

rowDiffs(x, rows = NULL, cols = NULL, lag = 1L, differences = 1L, ...,
  useNames = NA)

## S4 method for signature 'matrix_OR_array_OR_table_OR_numeric'
rowDiffs(x, rows = NULL,
  cols = NULL, lag = 1L, differences = 1L, dim. = dim(x), ...,
  useNames = NA)

## S4 method for signature 'ANY'
rowDiffs(x, rows = NULL, cols = NULL, lag = 1L,
  differences = 1L, ..., useNames = NA)

colDiffs(x, rows = NULL, cols = NULL, lag = 1L, differences = 1L, ...,
  useNames = NA)

## S4 method for signature 'matrix_OR_array_OR_table_OR_numeric'
colDiffs(x, rows = NULL,
  cols = NULL, lag = 1L, differences = 1L, dim. = dim(x), ...,
  useNames = NA)

## S4 method for signature 'ANY'
colDiffs(x, rows = NULL, cols = NULL, lag = 1L,
  differences = 1L, ..., useNames = NA)

Arguments

x	An NxK matrix-like object.
rows, cols	A vector indicating the subset of rows (and/or columns) to operate over. If NULL, no subsetting is done.
lag	An integer specifying the lag.
differences	An integer specifying the order of difference.
...	Additional arguments passed to specific methods.
useNames	If NA, the default behavior of the function about naming support is remained. If FALSE, no naming support is done. Else if TRUE, names attributes of result are set.
dim.	An integer vector of length two specifying the dimension of x, essential when x is a numeric vector. Note, that this is not a generic argument and not all methods need provide it.

Details

The S4 methods for x of type matrix, array, or numeric call matrixStats::rowDiffs / matrixStats::colDiffs.

Value

Returns a numeric matrix with one column (row) less than x: Nx(K-1) or (N-1)xK.

Examples

  mat <- matrix(rnorm(15), nrow = 5, ncol = 3)
  mat[2, 1] <- NA
  mat[3, 3] <- Inf
  mat[4, 1] <- 0
  
  print(mat)
  
  rowDiffs(mat)
  colDiffs(mat)
