Check for Between-Level Patterns in Top Tables

This function checks if any of the elements within a list of top tables contain element names that match the specified between-level pattern.

Usage

check_between_level_pattern(top_tables)

Arguments

top_tables

A list where each element is itself a list containing named elements.

Value

A list with two elements:

between_levels

A logical value indicating whether any element names match the between-level pattern.

index_with_pattern

The index of the first element in `top_tables` where all names match the between-level pattern, or NA if no match is found.

Details

The function iterates over each element in `top_tables`. For each element that is a list, it checks if all names within that inner list match the pattern `".+_vs_.+"`. If a match is found, the function sets `between_levels` to TRUE and records the index of the matching element. The search stops at the first match.
