Create, analyse and detect ions — new

This is the constructor function to generate a set of ions that can later be analysed with `analyse()` and detected with `detect()`.

new_ions(npeaks = 10, mzrange = c(100, 1000), nimg = 100)

analyse(x, sleep = 0.1)

analyze(x, sleep = 0.1)

detect(x, new = FALSE)

spectrum(x, ...)

Arguments

npeaks: A `numeric` scalar defining the number of unique peaks (M/Z values). Default is 10.
mzrange: A `numeric` of length 2 defining the range of possible M/Z values. Default is `c(100, 1000)`.
nimg: A `numeric` scalar. When analysing the ions, their separation along their M/Z values will be split along a sequence of length `nimg`. Default is 100.
x: An object of class `ions`.
sleep: How much time to wait before producing the next plot.
new: A `logical` scalar, indicating if the separated ions (last frame of calling `analyse) should be plotting, or whether the detection should be overlaid. Default is `FALSE`, to add the plot on top of the opened device.
...: Additional arguments passed to [graphics::plot()].

An object of class `ions`.

`analyse`, `detect` and `spectrum` are used for their side effect or producing plots. They all invisibly return `NULL`.
