all.equal

Test if Two Model Fits are (Nearly) Equal

Description

Two model fits are compared using standard all.equal-methods after discarding certain elements considered irrelevant for the equality of the fits, e.g., the runtime and the call.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'twinstim'
all.equal(target, current, ..., ignore = NULL)

## S3 method for class 'hhh4'
all.equal(target, current, ..., ignore = NULL)

Arguments

`target,current`	the model fits to be compared.
`...`	further arguments for standard `all.equal`-methods, e.g., the numerical `tolerance`.
`ignore`	an optional character vector of elements to ignore when comparing the two fitted objects. The following elements are always ignored: `"runtime"` and `"call"`.

Value

Either TRUE or a character vector describing differences between the target and the current model fit.
