Hi,
I wonder if this is a feature or a bug:
> isGeneric("&&")
Error in genericForPrimitive(f) :
methods may not be defined for primitive function ‘&&’ in this
version of R
> isGeneric(":")
Error in genericForPrimitive(f) :
methods may not be defined for primitive function ‘:’ in this
version of R
According to the man page:
‘isGeneric’: Is there a function named ‘f’, and if so, is it a
generic?
So it sounds like it should be a YES or NO answer.
In any case the error message is confusing: it suggests that I'm trying
to define methods for "&&", but I'm not.
This is with R 2.13, R 2.14 and R 2.15.0 alpha.
Thanks,
H.
