R: as.column

as.column {adlift} | R Documentation

## as.column

### Description

This function returns a given vector as a column (with dimension).

### Usage

    as.column(x)

### Arguments

`x` | any vector or array.

### Details

x can either be a vector with no dimension attributes (a list of values), a vector with dimensions, or a matrix/array. If x is a matrix/array, the function gives x if `ncol(x)` is less than or equal to `nrow(x)`, or its transpose if `ncol(x)` is greater than or equal to `nrow(x)`. For any input, the input is given non-null dimensions.

### Value

`y` | a vector identical to x, but given as a column.

### Examples

    vector<-1:8
    #
    vector
    #
    #...vector has no dimension attributes
    #
    as.column(vector)
    #
    #...gives output dimension of (8,1)
    #
    F<-matrix(c(6,2,2,10,6,17),3,2)
    #
    #
    as.column(F)

    #
    #the function has no effect on F
    #
    F<-t(F)
    F
    #now has dimension (2,3)...
    #
    as.column(F)
    #
    #the output is made to have more rows than columns
