function [data] = ft_checkdata(data, varargin)

% FT_CHECKDATA checks the input data of the main FieldTrip functions, e.g. whether the
% type of data structure corresponds with the required data. If necessary and possible,
% this function will adjust the data structure to the input requirements (e.g. change
% dimord, average over trials, convert inside from index into logical).
%
% If the input data does NOT correspond to the requirements, this function will give a
% warning message and if applicable point the user to external documentation (link to
% website).
