Improvement: function cut
Regarding your first point, argument 'include.lowest' already handles this specific case, see ?.bincode Your second point, maybe it could be helpful, but since both 'cut.default' and '.bincode' return NA if a value isn't within a bin, you could make something like this on your own. Might be worth pitching to R-bugs on the wishlist. On Fri, Sep 17, 2021, 17:45 Leonard Mada via R-help <r-help at r-project.org> wrote:
Hello List members,
the following improvements would be useful for function cut (and .bincode):
1.) Argument: Include extremes
extremes = TRUE
if(right == FALSE) {
# include also right for last interval;
} else {
# include also left for first interval;
}
2.) Argument: warn = TRUE
Warn if any values are not included in the intervals.
Motivation:
- reduce risk of errors when using function cut();
Sincerely,
Leonard
