Calculate input sample sizes

Calculate input sample sizes
Arguments
- dir
Directory where output will be saved. The directory where the file should be saved. If dir = NULL no output will be saved.
- dat
A data frame of composition data created using
pull_bio()
.- type
A string specifying whether doing "length" or "age" that is used to ensure the sample size is of the correct column and create the file name of the saved sheet.
- species
A string specifying the species group of interest, which will lead to the use of the correct species-specific value for the number of unique samples per tow. See the function call for allowed values, where the default is
"all"
.- printfolder
A string that will be appended to
dir
, creating a folder where the output will be saved. If specified as""
, the output will just be saved directly indir
. The default is"forSS3"
.- output
A string, where the default is
NULL
, which returns only a vector of samples sizes."summary"
, or any other character string, will return a table of observations by year and sex.- verbose
A logical that specifies if you want to print messages and warnings to the console. The default is
TRUE
.
