Utilities Class

Source: R/00_utilities.R
utilities.Rd

The `utilities` class is an S7 class designed to group utility functions that are not directly tied to other specific objects in the package. These include the functions `gentime`, `paringits`, `harmonicfit`, and `foldlc`.

Usage

utilities(
  times = integer(0),
  series = integer(0),
  series_esd = integer(0),
  paired = integer(0)
)

Arguments

times

A numeric vector storing the time points.

series

A numeric vector representing the values of the time series.

series_esd

A numeric vector representing the error standard deviations of the time series.

paired

Data Frame with the paired datasets.

Description

This class acts as a container for standalone methods that perform independent operations within the package. By grouping them under a single class, the package achieves better modularity and organization, facilitating maintenance and extensibility.

Available Methods

- `gentime`: Generates time points based on a specified statistical distribution. - `paringits`: A method for pairing irregular time series. - `harmonicfit`: A method for fitting harmonic models to data. - `foldlc`: A method for folding light curves in time series analysis.
