Transcranial Doppler (TCD), first described in 1982 [1], is a noninvasive ultrasound (US) study that involves the use of a low-frequency (â¤2 MHz) transducer probe to insonate the basal cerebral arteries through relatively thin bone windows.
Details. as.character and is.character are generic: you can write methods to handle specific classes of objects, see InternalMethods. Further, for as.character the default method calls as.vector, so dispatch is first on methods for as.character and then for methods for as.vector.
That is, the first character in the string is at index zero and the last is at Length - 1. This method begins searching at the last character position of this instance and proceeds backward toward the beginning until either value is found or the first character position has been examined.
