Describe the class(es) of an object
describe_class(x, strict_description = TRUE) ## S3 method for class 'factor' describe_class(x, strict_description = TRUE) ## Default S3 method: describe_class(x, strict_description = TRUE)

The object to describe |

Should differing factor levels be treated
as differences for the purposes of identifying mismatches?

For package developers, an S3 generic method can be written for
describe_class() for custom classes that may need more definition
than the default method. This function is called by compare_df_cols.
A character scalar describing the class(es) of an object where if the scalar will match, columns in a data.frame (or similar object) should bind together without issue.
factor: Describe factors with their levels
and if they are ordered.
default: List all classes of an object.
