Generate Objects of Class "distanceLimitedPDSIZ"

Description

This is the generic definition for generating objects of class "distanceLimitedPDSIZ." There is only one constructor method corresponding to this generic: distanceLimitedPDSIZ-methods.

Usage

distanceLimitedPDSIZ(downLog, pds, dls, ...)

Arguments

downLog

Signature object of class "downLog".

pds

Signature object of class "perpendicularDistance" containing the pertinent perpendicular distance sampling information.

dls

Signature object of class "dlsNumeric" which will accept either an object of class "distanceLimited" containing the pertinent distance limited sampling information or a "numeric" object specifying the distance limit.

...

See methods.

Details

Since only one method exists for this generic, its signature arguments coincide with the above definitions. Please see distanceLimitedPDSIZ-methods for more details.

Value

A valid object of class "distanceLimitedPDSIZ."
