R: Print Matrices, Old-style

prmatrix {base}

R Documentation

Print Matrices, Old-style

Description

An earlier method for printing matrices, provided for S compatibility.

Usage

prmatrix(x, rowlab =, collab =,
         quote = TRUE, right = FALSE, na.print = NULL, ...)

Arguments

`x`	numeric or character matrix.
`rowlab,collab`	(optional) character vectors giving row or column names respectively. By default, these are taken from `dimnames(x)`.
`quote`	logical; if `TRUE` and `x` is of mode `"character"`, quotes (") are used.

`right`	if `TRUE` and `x` is of mode `"character"`, the output columns are right-justified.
`na.print`	how `NA`s are printed. If this is non-null, its value is used to represent `NA`.
`...`	arguments for `print` methods.

Details

prmatrix is an earlier form of print.matrix, and is very similar to the S function of the same name.

Value

Invisibly returns its argument, x.

Examples

prmatrix(m6 <- diag(6), rowlab = rep("",6), collab =rep("",6))

chm <- matrix(scan(system.file("help", "AnIndex", package = "splines"),
                   what = ""), , 2, byrow = TRUE)
chm  # uses print.matrix()
prmatrix(chm, collab = paste("Column",1:3), right=TRUE, quote=FALSE)
