makeChunks {future.apply}R Documentation

Create Chunks of Index Vectors

Description

This is an internal function.

Usage

makeChunks(nbrOfElements, nbrOfWorkers, future.scheduling = 1,
  future.chunk.size = NULL)

Arguments

nbrOfElements

(integer) Total number of elements to iterate over.

future.scheduling

(numeric) A strictly positive scalar. Only used if argument future.chunk.size is NULL.

future.chunk.size

(numeric) The maximum number of elements per chunk, or NULL. If NULL, then the chunk sizes are given by the future.scheduling argument.

nbrOfWorker

(integer) Number of workers available.

Value

A list of chunks, where each chunk is an integer vector of unique indices [1, nbrOfElements]. The union of all chunks holds nbrOfElements elements and equals 1:nbrOfElements. If nbrOfElements == 0, then an empty list is returned.
