Attributes

• Attributes can be created using structure()
• Generally, they do not change the function of the object

x_simple <- 1:10
x <- structure(
    x_simple,  # the object to be equipped with attributes
    attribute1="value1",
    attribute2=c(6, 100, 324)
)
print(x)

##  [1]  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9 10
## attr(,"attribute1")
## [1] "value1"
## attr(,"attribute2")
## [1]   6 100 324
