Hello all, I wrote a function with many arguments. Then I need to call it many times with changes on some arguments only. Is there any way to write a function or have a method to "update" it, like the relationship between lm() and update()?
Many thanks, Edwin Sun ------------ This is the sample code. > test <- function(y, z) { + x <- y +1 + w <- z * 2 + result <- list(x=x, w=w) + class(result) <- "ego" + return(result) + } > me <- test(y=3, z=4); me $x [1] 4 $w [1] 8 attr(,"class") [1] "ego" > update(me, y=5) Error in update.default(me, y = 5) : need an object with call component -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/how-to-update-my-own-function-tp3056256p3056256.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
