Thanks and good point about unspecified behavior. The way it behaves now
(when it doesn't ignore) is more consistent with data.frame() though so I
prefer that to a "warn and ignore" behaviour:
data.frame(a = 1, b = 2, 3)
#> a b X3
#> 1 1 2 3
data.frame(a = 1, 2, 3)
#> a X2 X3
#> 1 1 2
Note that ?transform.data.frame says arguments need to be named, so you
are testing unspecified behaviour. I guess this falls in a similar
category as the note
If some of the values are not vectors of the appropriate length,
you deserve whatever you get!

I believe the wording goes back to Martin Maechler many moons ago (AFAICT
towards the end of the last millennium.)
We might leave it to him to change it?

I think if you step back, you can ask what the purpose of an error message
is and who designs it.
Is the message for the developer or others on their team or something an
end-user knowing nothing about R will see.
This reminds me a bit of legal mumbo jumbo that turns many reading it off as

Dear r-devel,
See below:
transform(data.frame(a = 1), 2, 3)
#> a
#> 1 1
transform(data.frame(a = 1), b=2, 3)
#> a b X3
#> 1 1 2 3
We need a small modification to make it work consistently, see below:
transform.data.frame <- function (`_data`, ...) {
e <- eval(substitute(list(..
x$`string` is not the same as x$'string'. They may act similarly now, but
they do not parse the same.

Good points. I don't mind the terminology since target and current are the
names of the arguments. As the function is already designed to stop at the
first failing check we might not need to enumerate or count the mismatches,
instead we could have "`NA` found in `target` but not in `current` at

Thanks for your reply!

That�s roughly what I had suspected�I appreciate the clarification.
To your point on
Dear Aidan Lakshman,
To answer your implicit question, VECTOR_ELT() unclasses the nodes
because it doesn't go through the stats:::`[[.dendrogram` method,
instead dereferencing the data pointer directly.
Other *apply functions in base R create a call to the `[[` operator,
letting the language disp
Yes... Also, of course, the sentence after colon does not the describe the
cause of the mismatch, e.g.
> all.equal(c(1,NA,NA), c(NA,NA,3))
[1] "'is.NA' value mismatch: 2 in current 2 in target"
could be confusing.
Perhaps "is.na() mismatch (2 positions)", with the count calculated as
sum(is.n
I personally wouldn't like using a string, and this comment makes me
think it's against the r-core preference as well:

Thanks both for catching the sloppy mistake in vapply() :)
Let's continue discussion on the bug/PR.

There are tests in

There turn out to be a few more things to fix.
One problem is easy to solve: vapply() needs a third argument
specifying the type of the return value. (Can we have unit tests for
tab completion?)
The other problem is harder: `comps` defaults to an empty string, and
you can't have a symbol consisti
