If I want to assign some variables into an environment, it seems natural to do something like
e <- new.env() within(e, { x <- 1:5 y <- runif(5) } ) This throws an error, since within.environment doesn't exist. I realise I can work around it using as.environment(within(as.list(e), { x <- 1:5 y <- runif(5) } )) Just wondering why I can't use within directly with environments. -- 4dpiecharts.com ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
