Parse a string into a numeric vector

This function takes a comma-separated string and parses it into a numeric vector. It checks if all values in the string are numeric and returns the parsed vector. If any value is not numeric, it throws an error.

Usage

ParseThreshold(strThreshold, bSort = TRUE)

Arguments

strThreshold

character A comma-separated string of numeric values.

bSort

logical Sort thresholds in ascending order? Default: TRUE.

Value

A numeric vector containing the parsed values.

Examples

# standard thresholds
ParseThreshold("-3,-2,2,3")
#> Parsed -3,-2,2,3 to numeric vector: -3, -2, 2, 3
#> [1] -3 -2  2  3

# by default thresholds will be sorted in ascending order
ParseThreshold("3,2,-2,-3")
#> Parsed 3,2,-2,-3 to numeric vector: 3, 2, -2, -3
#> [1] -3 -2  2  3

# optionally disable the sort
ParseThreshold("0.9,0.85", bSort = FALSE)
#> Parsed 0.9,0.85 to numeric vector: 0.9, 0.85
#> [1] 0.90 0.85
