Bind vector, single values and matrices

Source: R/bind.R

This functions works very similar to well-known base `cbind` or `rbind` function. However, there is one big difference between these functions. If you pass a vector, each value will be get individually.

col_bind(...)

row_bind(...)

Arguments

...

single values, vectors, matrices or data.frames

Value

a matrix being a product of matrix/vector/values binding
