Getting the number of the observations

The getInObs() function returns the number of the observations in a given storm or stormsList object.

Usage

getInObs(s, ...)

# S4 method for stormsList
getInObs(s, name, season = NULL)

# S4 method for storm
getInObs(s)

Arguments

s: storm or stormsList object.
...: extra argument for stormsList
name: character. Name of the storm in capital letters.
season: numeric. Cyclonic season of the storm. Required only if several storm in s object have the same name. Default value is set to NULL

Value

Numeric vector.
