Statistics::R::REXP::Expression(3pm)

NAME

Statistics::R::REXP::Expression - an R expression vector

VERSION

version 1.0002

SYNOPSIS

    use Statistics::R::REXP::Expression
    
    # Representation of the R call C<expresson(1 + 2))>:
    my $vec = Statistics::R::REXP::Expression->new([
        Statistics::R::REXP::Language->new([
            Statistics::R::REXP::Symbol->new('+'),
            Statistics::R::REXP::Double->new([1]),
            Statistics::R::REXP::Double->new([2])
    ])]);
    print $vec->elements;

DESCRIPTION

An object of this class represents an R expression vectors ("EXPRSXP"). These objects represent a list of calls, symbols, etc., for example as returned by calling R function "parse" or "expression".

METHODS

"Statistics::R::REXP:Expression" inherits from Statistics::R::REXP::List, with no added restrictions on the value of its elements.

sexptype: SEXPTYPE of expressions is "EXPRSXP".

to_pl: Perl value of the expression vector is an array reference to the Perl values of its "elements". (That is, it's equivalent to "map {$_-"to_pl}, $vec->elements>.) Unlike List, elements that are atomic vectors of length 1 are still represented as a one-element array reference, rather than scalar values.

BUGS AND LIMITATIONS

Classes in the "REXP" hierarchy are intended to be immutable. Please do not try to change their value or attributes.

There are no known bugs in this module. Please see Statistics::R::IO for bug reporting.
