I used fmatch.hash to attach a hash-table to my objects, but this gets problematic when my table is of length 0 (but not NULL, see issue #8): the returned value is NA_integer_ (regardless of the value of x and the class of table).
This is a problem, both because my length is now different, but also because it now matches NA's.
I think the following shows the problems:
Works fine if some value of somecondition is TRUE, but not when it's all FALSE
And:
> match(NA, vector[c(F,F,F,F)])
[1] NA
> fmatch(NA, vector[c(F,F,F,F)])
[1] NA
> temp <- fmatch.hash('someval', vector(c(F,F,F,F]))
> fmatch(NA, temp)
[1] 1
I'd expect the final result to always be the same as when calling (f)match directly
Details about my setup:
Reproduced with both fastmatch 1.1-0 and 1.1-1
R 3.5.3 and 3.6.1
Under Rstudio 1.1.463 and 1.2.1335, and command prompt with R --vanilla
Windows 10
