Find the Reaction a parameter appears in

Usually Parameters are a list of names and values, Reactions have reaction kinetics, which can contain any number of parameters. To make matters worse, a parameter may influence two or more reactions. The goal is to decide on the parameter's conversion factor. We shall assume that if the parameter appears in more than one reaction, it is the same kind of context, and thus it must be converted exactly the sam eway. This function finds the first reaction a given parameter appears in.

Usage

parameterReaction(reactionKinetic, parNames)

Arguments

reactionKinetic

a character vector with all of the kinetic law expressions

parNames

parameter names

Value

list with two named components: fwd, bwd; each is a named vector of integers, th enames are taken from parNames, the integer indicates a reaction.

Details

Note that the entire conversion may not work at all for complicated kinetics, we use very simple rules here.
