merge attributes into a dimension, or split a dimension over attributes
# S3 method for stars split(x, f = length(dim(x)), drop = TRUE, ...) # S3 method for stars merge(x, y, ..., name = "attributes")
| x | object of class |
|---|---|
| f | the name or index of the dimension to split; by default the last dimension |
| drop | ignored |
| ... | if defined, the first unnamed argument is used for dimension values, if not defined, attribute names are used for dimension values |
| y | needs to be missing |
| name | name for the new dimension |
merge merges attributes of a stars object into a new dimension; split splits a dimension over attributes
split.stars works on the first attribute, and will give an error when more than one attribute is present
