Check if an argument is a single numeric value

Usage

checkNumber(
  x,
  na.ok = FALSE,
  lower = -Inf,
  upper = Inf,
  finite = FALSE,
  null.ok = FALSE
)

check_number(
  x,
  na.ok = FALSE,
  lower = -Inf,
  upper = Inf,
  finite = FALSE,
  null.ok = FALSE
)

assertNumber(
  x,
  na.ok = FALSE,
  lower = -Inf,
  upper = Inf,
  finite = FALSE,
  null.ok = FALSE,
  .var.name = vname(x),
  add = NULL
)

assert_number(
  x,
  na.ok = FALSE,
  lower = -Inf,
  upper = Inf,
  finite = FALSE,
  null.ok = FALSE,
  .var.name = vname(x),
  add = NULL
)

testNumber(
  x,
  na.ok = FALSE,
  lower = -Inf,
  upper = Inf,
  finite = FALSE,
  null.ok = FALSE
)

test_number(
  x,
  na.ok = FALSE,
  lower = -Inf,
  upper = Inf,
  finite = FALSE,
  null.ok = FALSE
)

expect_number(
  x,
  na.ok = FALSE,
  lower = -Inf,
  upper = Inf,
  finite = FALSE,
  null.ok = FALSE,
  info = NULL,
  label = vname(x)
)

Arguments

x: [any]
Object to check.
na.ok: [logical(1)]
Are missing values allowed? Default is FALSE.
lower: [numeric(1)]
Lower value all elements of x must be greater than or equal to.
upper: [numeric(1)]
Upper value all elements of x must be lower than or equal to.
finite: [logical(1)]
Check for only finite values? Default is FALSE.
null.ok: [logical(1)]
If set to TRUE, x may also be NULL. In this case only a type check of x is performed, all additional checks are disabled.
.var.name: [character(1)]
Name of the checked object to print in assertions. Defaults to the heuristic implemented in vname.
add: [AssertCollection]
Collection to store assertion messages. See AssertCollection.
info: [character(1)]
Extra information to be included in the message for the testthat reporter. See expect_that.
label: [character(1)]
Name of the checked object to print in messages. Defaults to the heuristic implemented in vname.

Value

Depending on the function prefix: If the check is successful, the functions assertNumber/assert_number return x invisibly, whereas checkNumber/check_number and testNumber/test_number return TRUE. If the check is not successful, assertNumber/assert_number throws an error message, testNumber/test_number returns FALSE, and checkNumber/check_number return a string with the error message. The function expect_number always returns an expectation.

Details

This function does not distinguish between NA, NA_integer_, NA_real_, NA_complex_ NA_character_ and NaN.

Examples

testNumber(1)
#> [1] TRUE
testNumber(1:2)
#> [1] FALSE
