Check for lengthy variable names.

This function checks whether variable names in a GADSdat object exceed the allowed number of characters. This can help ensure that variable names adhere to naming conventions and avoid potential issues with downstream processing or compatibility.

Usage

check_var_names_length(GADSdat, boundary = 30)

Arguments

GADSdat

GADSdat object.

boundary

An integer specifying the maximum length (number of characters) a variable name is allowed to have. Default is 30.

Value

A data.frame containing the variable names that exceed the boundary, along with their respective character counts. If all variable names are within the boundary, an empty data.frame is returned.

Examples

# Example usage:
# Load example GADSdat object
GADSdat <- eatGADS::import_spss(system.file("extdata", "example_data2.sav", package = "eatFDZ"))

# Check for variable names longer than 30 characters
lengthy_names <- check_var_names_length(GADSdat, boundary = 30)

# Print the result
print(lengthy_names)
#> [1] varName nChars 
#> <0 rows> (or 0-length row.names)
