Setup Mosquito Dispersal Matrix — setup_K

A flexible function to set up or change the mosquito dispersal matrix (see xds_info_mosquito_dispersal).

The function was designed to dispatch on the first argument, name:

name is a method name
options is a named list that sets the parameters in a function make_K_matrix_name
Before dispatching, the function sets class(option) = "name"

Pre-dispatch cases were developed to make the function call more flexible: any matrix can be passed as the first argument: or the user could set up an options list and pass it (e.g. Koptions is passed to setup_K_matrix in xds_setup). The pre-dispatch parsing:

if name is a method name, set class(options) = "name"
if name is a matrix, set class(options) = "as_matrix"
if name is a list of options,

Available methods are:

"as_matrix" — sets up the matrix
"herethere" — calls make_K_matrix_herethere
"xy" – calls make_K_matrix_xy
"list" — for options lists
"zero" — sets up the zero matrix
"no_setup" — returns the xds object without modification

Usage

setup_K_matrix(name, xds_obj, options = list(), s = 1)

Arguments

name: a method name: or a matrix, or a list
xds_obj: an xds model object
options: a list of options to configure K_matrix
s: the vector species index

Value

an xds object
