right assignment ("->") and functions
Hi everyone
check this out [R-1.7.0]:
R> f1 <- function(x){x^2}
R> f1 -> f2
R> f2(4)
[1] 16
R>
R> function(x){x^2} -> f3
function(x){x^2} -> f3
R> f3(4)
Error: couldn't find function "f3"
Why does right assignment "->" work in the first but not the second
case? Can anyone else reproduce this?
