[R] Using a function inside a function

[Abraham Mathew]

I'm trying to run a function inside a function but get an error message.

lst <- list(roots = c("car insurance", "auto insurance"),
roots2 = c("insurance"), prefix = c("cheap", "budget"),
prefix2 = c("low cost"), suffix = c("quote", "quotes"),
suffix2 = c("rate", "rates"), suffix3 = c("comparison"))

myfunc <- function(lst) {
      myone <- function(x, y) {
            nu <- do.call(paste, expand.grid(x, y))
            mydf <- data.frame(keyword=c(nu))
            }
     mytwo <- function(x, y, z){
           mu <- do.call(paste, expand.grid(x, y, z))
           mydf2 <- data.frame(keyword=c(mu))
           }
     d1 = mytwo(lst$prefix, lst$roots, lst$suffix)
     d2 = mytwo(lst$prefix, lst$roots, lst$suffix2)
     d3 = mytwo(lst$prefix, lst$roots, lst$suffix3)
     d4 = mytwo(lst$prefix2, lst$roots, lst$suffix)
     d5 = mytwo(lst$prefix2, lst$roots, lst$suffix2)
     df = rbind(d1, d2, d3, d4, d5)
}


I get the following error message:

> newdf <- myfunc(lst)
Error in expand.grid(x, y) : object 'x' not found


Can anyone help!
I'm running R 2.13 on Ubuntu 10.10
