Number of knots (integer) — num_knots • dials

The number of knots used for spline model parameters.

Usage

num_knots(range = c(0L, 5L), trans = NULL)

Arguments

range: A two-element vector holding the defaults for the smallest and largest possible values, respectively. If a transformation is specified, these values should be in the transformed units.
trans: A trans object from the scales package, such as scales::transform_log10() or scales::transform_reciprocal(). If not provided, the default is used which matches the units used in range. If no transformation, NULL.

Details

One context in which this parameter is used is spline basis functions.
