You need to store your results in a list and then access the information in the list to get the values:
> boot<-function(a,b,c){ + media<-(a+b+c)/3 + var_app<-var(a) + list(media=media,var_app=var_app) + } > boot(2,4,10) $media [1] 5.333333 $var_app [1] NA > > simul<-function(S){ + results<-list() + for(i in 1:S){ + results[[i]]<-boot(2,4,10) + } + var<-var(sapply(results, '[[', 'media')) + mean_var<-mean(sapply(results, '[[', 'var_app')) + var_var<-var(sapply(results, '[[', 'var_app')) + list(var=var,mean_var=mean_var,var_var=var_var) + } > simul(5) $var [1] 0 $mean_var [1] NA $var_var [1] NA > On Tue, Aug 18, 2009 at 11:55 AM, MarcioRibeiro<mes...@pop.com.br> wrote: > > Hi listers, > I've been looking for a procedure, but I am not succeding... > I have a function that give multiple results... > Then, I would like to simulate this function n times, so I need to save/keep > the n multiple results, in order to calculate my desired statistics... > I have already tried with the RETURN and LIST FUNCTION, but I am not getting > it right... > An example of what I am looking for sounds like this... > > boot<-function(a,b,c){ > media<-(a+b+c)/3 > var_app<-var(a) > list(media=media,var_app=var_app) > } > boot(2,4,10) > > simul<-function(S){ > results<-rep(0,S) > for(i in 1:S){ > results[i]<-boot(2,4,10) > } > var<-var(media) > mean_var<-mean(var_app) > var_var<-var(var_app) > list(var=var,mean_var=mean_var,var_var=var_var) > } > simul(5) > > -- > View this message in context: > http://www.nabble.com/Simulation-function-tp25027993p25027993.html > Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > > ______________________________________________ > 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. > -- Jim Holtman Cincinnati, OH +1 513 646 9390 What is the problem that you are trying to solve? ______________________________________________ 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.
