Thaks for your quick reply Bert, although I doubt it works.
The reason is that the names of the objects of the dataset, all end with the
sufix '_test' and therefore I need to attach/paste/glue this suffix to the
'arg2' of the function. Any other idea?

If I understand you correctly, just arg2(arg1) will work fine...One of
the nice features of R.
Example:
f <- function(dat,fun=mean,...)
{
fun(dat, ...) ## ... allows extra arguments to fun
}
f( rnorm(10), trim=.05) ## trimmed mean
x <- 1:10
f(x, fun = max,na.rm=TRUE)

On Wed,
Dear R community,
I am struggling a bit with a probably fairly simple task. I need to use some
already existing functions as argument for a new function that I am going to
create. 'dataset' is an argument, and it comprises objects named
'mean_test', 'sd_test', 'kurt_test' and so on. 'arg1' tells
5 matches
