The R language definition (version 2.5.1, 2007-06-27, p37) outlines an
idiom (here perhaps abusively abbreviated)
m <- match.call()
m[[1]] <- as.name('plot')
eval(m, parent.frame() )
A posting (Subject: "Re: [Rd] problems with plot.formula", Date: Wed 26
May 2004 - 05:44:34 EST, From: Prof Brian Ripley ([EMAIL PROTECTED]))
related to plot.formula reads
not a standard idiom for a generic with a formula method
Could someone kindly direct my attention to a tutorial/howto/intro or
other written material that provides insight on how this idiom (and
preferably other R-idioms) should be used and not used?
If the answer is that there is no such other material, so the solution is
"go read the language definition again, go think again and go (hopefully)
figure" that would be appreciated too.
Thanks, MJ
