Converting "values variables" into "modalities variables"

To transform variables from the values matrix into categorical variables that can be added into the modalities matrix.

Usage

recode_indicator_num(
  x,
  variable_name,
  breaks = c(0, 0.01, 0.05, 0.1, 1),
  labels = c("Good", "Uncertain", "Bad", "Severe"),
  ...
)

Arguments

x

a QR_matrix or mQR_matrix object.

variable_name

a vector of strings containing the names of the variables to convert.

breaks

see function cut.

labels

see function cut.

...

other parameters of the cut function.

Value

The function recode_indicator_num() returns the same object, enhanced with the chosen indicator. So if the input x is a QR_matrix, an object of class QR_matrix is returned. If the input x is a mQR_matrix, an object of class mQR_matrix is returned.
