Compute Factor for Value Imputations When Character Value Contains < or >

Source: R/compute_qual_imputation.R
compute_qual_imputation_dec.Rd

Function to compute factor for value imputation when character value contains < or >. The factor is calculated using the number of decimals. If there are no decimals, the factor is 1, otherwise the factor = 1/10^decimal place. For example, the factor for 100 = 1, the factor for 5.4 = 1/10^1, the factor for 5.44 = 1/10^2. This results in no additional false precision added to the value. This is an intermediate function.

Usage

compute_qual_imputation_dec(character_value_decimal)

Arguments

character_value_decimal

Character value to determine decimal precision

Value

Decimal precision value to add or subtract

Details

Derive an imputed value
