Make a copy (clone) of an "rstream" object in package rstream.
"rstream" objects cannot simply be copied by <-. The new
variable does not hold a copy of an "rstream" object but just points
to the old object which might not be the wanted result (similar to R
environments). To get a copy of the whole "rstream" object the clone
method must be used.
clone <- rstream.clone(stream)
stream |
an "rstream" object. |
Methods available for all "rstream" subclasses:
rstream.mrg32k3a-class,
rstream.runif-class.
The label (name) of the new copy has a dot "." appended to distinguish the original object from its copy.
## create a new rstream object (of subclass rstream.mrg32k3a)
s <- new("rstream.mrg32k3a")
## make a copy (clone)
clone <- rstream.clone(s)
