remove empty objects from workspace

Thanks Jim, the removal of objects which are NA works perfectly!

For my second problem it didn't express myself correctly:
I  actually meant objects with rows (attributes?) but no data in it
but I solved this
adjusting your approach:

for(object in objects()) if(is.null(dim(get(object))[1]) ||
dim((get(object)))[1] == 0) rm(list=object)

Thanks a lot!

Hi,

how can I remove all empty objects (which are NA or have zero rows)
from my workspace?

Hi Katharina,
To remove objects that are all NA:

for(object in objects()) if(all(is.na(get(object)))) rm(list=object)

If by "zero rows" you mean objects that do not have a dimension:

for(object in objects()) if(is.null(dim(get(object)))) rm(list=object)
