---

Method addTotalData()

Add pre-calculated totals/aggregate data to the pivot table.

Usage

PivotData$addTotalData(dataFrame = NULL, dataName = NULL, variableNames = NULL)

Arguments

dataFrame

The data frame to add to the pivot table.

dataName

The name of the associated data frame in the pivot table which these totals relate to.

variableNames

A character vector specifying the names of the variables which these totals are grouped by.

Returns

No return value.

---

Method countTotalData()

Count the number of data frames containing total/aggregate data that exist in the pivot table associated with a specific named data frame.

Usage

PivotData$countTotalData(dataName = NULL)

Arguments

dataName

The name of the associated data frame in the pivot table which these totals relate to.

Returns

The number of total/aggregate data frames that exist in the pivot table associated with the specified data frame name.

---

Method getTotalData()

Retrieve pre-calculated totals/aggregate data from the pivot table.

Usage

PivotData$getTotalData(dataName = NULL, variableNames = NULL)

---

Method clone()

The objects of this class are cloneable with this method.

Usage

PivotData$clone(deep = FALSE)

Arguments

deep

Whether to make a deep clone.

Examples
