Dear R-helpers: I have a question related to using do.call to call cbind and get.
#the following works vec1 <- c(1,2) vec2 <- c(3,4) ColNameVec <- c('vec1','vec2') mat <- do.call("cbind",lapply(ColNameVec,get)) mat #put code above into a function then it does not work #before doing so, first remove vec1 and vec2 from global environment rm(vec1,vec2) test <- function() { vec1 <- c(1,2) vec2 <- c(3,4) ColNameVec <- c('vec1','vec2') mat <- do.call("cbind",lapply(ColNameVec,get)) return(mat) } test() In my task, I have to run do.call("cbind",lapply(ColNameVec,get)) inside a function, can someone kindly help? Many thanks in advance! -Sean [[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.
