flags

A named list of numeric values, e.g. list(good=1,bad=2).

actions

A character vector indicating actions to be carried out for the corresponding flags values. This will be lengthened with rep if necessary, to be of the same length as flags. A common value for actions is "NA", which means that data values that are flagged are replaced by NA in the returned result.
