check.text.args {metaseqR}

R Documentation

Text argument validator

Description

Checks if one or more given textual argument(s) is/are member(s) of a list of correct arguments. It's a more package-specific function similar to match.arg. Mostly for internal use.

Usage

    check.text.args(arg.name, arg.value, arg.list, 
        multiarg=FALSE)

Arguments

`arg.name`	the name of the argument that is checked (for display purposes).
`arg.value`	the value(s) of the argument to be checked.
`arg.list`	a vector of valid argument values for `arg.value` to be matched against.
`multiarg`	a logical scalar indicating whether `arg.name` accepts multiple arguments or not. In that case, all of the values in `arg.value` are checked against `arg.list`.
