Compute one aggregate value — .compute

Pure function that turns a numeric (or character) vector into a single aggregated value. NA values are removed before computation.

Usage

.compute_aggregate(values, method, method_param = NULL)

Arguments

values: Numeric vector (or character for `mode`/`concat`/`count`).
method: One of `"mean"`, `"median"`, `"min"`, `"max"`, `"sum"`, `"sd"`, `"percentile"`, `"mode"`, `"concat"`, `"count"`.
method_param: Numeric parameter required by `"percentile"` (e.g. 95 for the 95th percentile). Ignored for other methods.

Value

Length-1 list with components `value_num` (numeric) and `value_char` (character) — exactly one is non-NA depending on the method's output type. For `"count"` and `"n"`, returns `value_num`.
