Hi,

I have a question related to scoping. Suppose we have 2 functions:

f1 = function(i){i = 1}

f2 = function(n){
i = length(n)
f1(i)
}

In other words, I would like i=1 regardless of n. Is this possible without having f1 in the body of f2? Thanks in advance!

Uhm ... what? You want i = 1 where, exactly? You want to call to f1(i) to set i to 1 in f2?

Sorry, I don't really follow. Can you be a bit more explicit?
