Dear all
I am trying to create a list of all objects created over the course of a
function. To wit:
foo <- function(x){
first <- x*(1:8)
second <- matrix(x*(1:16), ncol = 4)
third <- 1:x
list(x=x, first=first, second=second, third=third)
}
foo(5)
No worries there. However, in the search for typing efficiency I wondered if it
would be possible to use list(ls()) in the final line of the function.
Unfortunately, this doesn't work. dump(ls(), file="") almost produces what I
want, but not as a list. Are there any suggestions how I can create a list of
all objects without manually declaring each object?
Thanks for any insight!
