Attach an Analytic Memo to a Unit or Category

Source: R/analytic_memos.R
add_memo.Rd

Records the reasoning behind a coding decision so the interpretive step leaves a trail. Memos attach to a single unit or to a category, carry the round they were written in, and travel with the coded units on export.

Usage

add_memo(
  memos = NULL,
  target_type = c("unit", "category"),
  target_id,
  text,
  round = 1
)

Arguments

memos

Existing memo table, or NULL to start one.

target_type

"unit" or "category".

target_id

Identifier of the unit or category the memo describes.

text

The memo. Free text; nothing parses it.

round

Refinement round the memo belongs to (default 1).

Value

The memo table with one row appended.
