Hi Nick, Thanks for providing an example that doesn't seem to depend on external data!

If you interrupt it there, backtrace() will point you in the direction of seemingly endless loop. You can also set options(error = recover) and get a debugger prompt at the point where you interrupted the code or in any other frame. See ?browser and RShowDoc('R-lang') part 9 "Debugging" for more information. > I have R 4.0.4 on my uni laptop and R 4.0.5 on my own one. Could > this be the reason? I'm afraid it's easier for you to answer this question. It should be possible to install R on computers even without administrator access. Can you reproduce the issue with https://cloud.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/old/4.0.4/ on your own laptop or https://cloud.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/old/4.0.5/ on the university-issued one? > [[alternative HTML version deleted]] This mailing list strips away the HTML part of multipart/mixed messages, so to make sure that your messages look exactly as you type them, please compose them in plain text. -- Best regards, Ivan ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see 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.
