In a recent SO post this came up (changed example to simplify it here). It seems that `test` still has the value sin.test <- sin environment(test)$test <- cos test(0) ## [1] 0 It appears to be related to the double use of `test` in `$<-` since if we break it up it works as expected: test <- sin e <- environment(test) e$test <- cos test(0) ## [1] 1 `assign` also works: test <- sin assign("test", cos, environment(test)) test(0) ## [1] 1 Can anyone shed some light on this?
