Coerce to a spectrum

Source: R/spct-new.r
as.generic_spct.Rd

Return a copy of an R object with its class set to a given type of spectrum, or convert an R object of a different class into one of the spectral classes.

Usage

as.generic_spct(x, ...)

# Default S3 method
as.generic_spct(x, ...)

Arguments

x

an R object

...

Arguments passed on to setGenericSpct

multiple.wl

numeric Maximum number of repeated w.length entries with same value.

idfactor

character Name of factor distinguishing multiple spectra when stored longitudinally (required if mulitple.wl > 1).

Value

A copy of x converted into a generic_spct object.

Details

Data frames, tibbles and similar objects are accepted as input if the column names are those expected by the matching class setting functions. An exception, is that an additional method specialization for conversion of waveband objects into response_spct objects is also defined.
