pluck-depth.R

#' Compute the depth of a vector
#'
#' The depth of a vector is how many levels that you can index/pluck into it.
#' `pluck_depth()` was previously called `vec_depth()`.
#'
#' @param x A vector
#' @param is_node Optionally override the default criteria for determine an
#'   element can be recursed within. The default matches the behaviour of
#'   `pluck()` which can recurse into lists and expressions.
#' @return An integer.
#' @export

#' )
