view

View First/Last/Random n Elements/Rows of an Object

Description

View the first or last or random n elements or rows of an object. Components of lists will be subset using iterative calls to view.

Usage

view(obj, n=5, last=FALSE, random=FALSE, print.console=TRUE, ...)

Arguments

`obj`	`object` – an R object to view.
`n`	`numeric` – first (default)/last/random `n` elements/rows of `obj` to view.
`last`	`logical` – if `TRUE`, last `n` elements/rows of `obj` are displayed.
`random`	`logical` – if `TRUE`, `n` random elements/rows (without replacement) of `obj` are displayed.
`print.console`	`logical` – if `TRUE`, print the results to the console (default). The results are also returned invisibly should the user wish to assign the output to an object.
`...`	`dots` – additional arguments (e.g., `replace=TRUE` if specifying `random=TRUE`).

Value

Invisibly returns the results of the call to view.

Note

If random=TRUE, random sampling will take place before the last operator is applied.
