That's a very nice start, thank you. (Will also look more closely at checklist.) It needs an `na.omit()` or alike, and even with that `rbind` barked a few entries in (i = 19 if you select the full vector right now). But definitely something to play with and possibly build upon. Thanks! (And the IDs of Floris and you were two of the ones I 'manually' added to a DESCRIPTION file ;-) Best, Dirk -- dirk.eddelbuettel.com | @eddelbuettel | e...@debian.org ______________________________________________ R-package-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-package-devel
