Hi all,
I have a function - let's call it "myfunction". This function is based
on some random
number generator. Now, once in a while the function will break/crash depending
on the random number it generate inside the function.
To avoid the problem, what I intend to do is the following:
1. Catch the try-error using class.
2. Redo the function if it returns "try-error"
3. Otherwise keep the output of the function.
I'm not sure how to create the above construct.
The code I have below doesn't work:
__BEGIN__
myfunction <- function(the_x) {
# do something
a = list(output1=val1, output2 = val2)
a
}
out <- try(suppressWarnings(myfunction(x)),silent=T)
if (class(out) == "try-error") {
#this clause doesn't seem to "redo"
out <- myfunction(X)
}
else {
ll <- out$output1
}
__END__
