Hi, I work with bio-conductor, but this is probably a basic R question.
I want to emulate the GOBPOFFSPRING$"GO:0008150" command: > allBP <- GOBPOFFSPRING$"GO:0008150" > class(allBP) [1] "character" > length(allBP) [1] 16066 > I want to create a function so that I can execute the command by passing as a parameter the portion in quotes in the above command (""GO:0008150"). So my current function looks like: > str <- "GO:0008150" > ifunc <- function(str){ + allBP <- paste('GOBPOFFSPRING$',str,sep='') + return(allBP) + } > x <- ifunc(str) > class(x) [1] "character" > length(x) [1] 1 > But this just returns a string. How do I get the command to execute? thanks!
