Dear list

For my work, it would be helpful if rpart worked seamlessly with an empty model:

library(rpart); rpart(formula=y~0, data=data.frame(y=factor(1:10)))

Currently, an unrelated error (originating from na.rpart) is thrown.

At some point in the near future, I'd like to release a package to CRAN which uses rpart and relies on that functionality. I have prepared a patch (minor modifications at three places, and a test) which I'd like to propose for inclusion in the next CRAN release of rpart. The patch can be reviewed at https://github.com/krlmlr/rpart/tree/empty-model, the files (based on the current CRAN release 4.1-8) can be downloaded from https://github.com/krlmlr/rpart/archive/empty-model.zip.

Thanks for your attention.


With kindest regards

Kirill Müller
