Hi
It seems that names of the form "..#" and "..." are not fixed by
make.names(), even though they are reserved words. The documentation reads:
> [...] Names such as ".2way" are not valid, and neither are the
reserved words.
> Reserved words in R: [...] ... and ..1, ..2 etc, which are used to
refer to arguments passed down from a calling function, see ?... .
I have pasted a reproducible example below.
I'd like to suggest to convert these to "...#" and "....", respectively.
Happy to contribute PR.
Best regards
Kirill
make.names(c("..1", "..13", "..."))
#> [1] "..1" "..13" "..."
`..1` <- 1
`..13` <- 13
`...` <- "dots"
mget(c("..1", "..13", "..."))
#> $..1
#> [1] 1
#>
#> $..13
#> [1] 13
#>
#> $...
#> [1] "dots"
`..1`
#> Error in eval(expr, envir, enclos): the ... list does not contain any
elements
`..13`
#> Error in eval(expr, envir, enclos): the ... list does not contain 13
elements
`...`
#> Error in eval(expr, envir, enclos): '...' used in an incorrect context
