Jared: I agree with your advice - I use source() too! I think I work in a different way to many, and don't ever "save current workspace" but use the interactive R environment cutting and pasting code from documents held under version control. As long as one is careful, I don't think there is any

source'ing is a bad practice because this saves additional copies of functions and data in the local workspace. Wasting disk space is not a problem now since HDDs are cheap and function bodies are generally small. But, when you change any function body, you have to repeat that source() call in l

Having your functions in a text file, say "functions.r" and then calling: >source("functions.r") is also an option. This assumes you are in the same directory as " functions.r". Perhaps take a look at ?setwd and ?getwd as well. On 9/25/07, Vladimir Eremeev <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > >

[R] How to read stored functions

2007-09-25 Thread Mauricio Malfert
Hi I'm simulating missing data patterns and I've started to get a lot of functions in the same .R file is it possible to store al these functions in a library like one does in C++ (i.e the .h file) and read the functions from the main .R file /Mauricio [[alternative HTML version deleted]
