List and Column Names in a Function?
The solution that Douglas proposed does not work. Any other ideas?
In this simple function, how can I pass strings for index and column
names
to the function? I've posted this type of question before and received
no
response.
Maybe this example will be easier to understand and troubleshoot.
ds <- function(myds, vec) {myds[[vec]]*2}
ds1 <- c(X=list(1:10), Y=list(11:20))
ds(get("ds1"),get("Y"))
You are overusing the get function. I think you can do what you want as ds(ds1, "Y") khobson at odot.org Kenneth Ray Hobson, P.E. Oklahoma DOT - QA & IAS Manager
