Correct_Formula_Order
checks the order of formulas given and corrects any ordering issues, orders alphabetically, by term number, etc.
Arguments
- term_n
term numbers for each element of the model
- tform
list of string function identifiers, used for linear/step
- keep_constant
binary values to denote which parameters to change
- a_n
list of initial parameter values, used to determine number of parameters. May be either a list of vectors or a single vector.
- names
columns for elements of the model, used to identify data columns
- der_iden
number for the subterm to test derivative at, only used for testing runs with a single varying parameter, should be smaller than total number of parameters. indexed starting at 0
- cons_mat
Matrix containing coefficients for system of linear constraints, formatted as matrix
- cons_vec
Vector containing constants for system of linear constraints, formatted as vector
- verbose
integer valued 0-4 controlling what information is printed to the terminal. Each level includes the lower levels. 0: silent, 1: errors printed, 2: warnings printed, 3: notes printed, 4: debug information printed. Errors are situations that stop the regression, warnings are situations that assume default values that the user might not have intended, notes provide information on regression progress, and debug prints out C++ progress and intermediate results. The default level is 2 and True/False is converted to 3/0.
- model_control
controls which alternative model options are used, see Def_model_control() for options and vignette("Control_Options") for further details
