Hi, I try to use a substitute function to generalise a equation.
I have this: expression(1+2*pred+3*lat) I need to define the equation in function of x1 and x2 variables. Also I try to define who is x1 and x2. I try this: X1 <- "pred" X2 <- "lat" Now I need substitute pred and lat in equation by x1 and x2 defined on X1 and X2 above, I try this way: > substitute(expression(1+2*pred+3*lat),list(as.name(X1)=as.name(x1),as.name(X2)=as.name(x2)) Error: unexpected '=' in "substitute(expression(1+2*pred+3*lat),list(as.name(X1)=" My expected result is: expression(1 + 2 * x1 + 3 * x2) Any help?
