I am trying to write a function that takes a few objects as input. test <- function(directory, num = 1:100) { > } the argument, "num", has the default value. But when the function is called, it can take an array as well, test("directory", c(1, 2, 3)) I can parse the both arguments by converting them into string, but I am wondering if there is a better (more efficient) way to achieve this. Perhaps, using built-in R functions can help, I suppose? Does anyone have any idea for the function taking more than one kind of argument? soichi [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ 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.
