Dear all, Many thanks to all who always so quickly respond with helpful hints! Currently I am working with R 0.63.1 on SuSE 5.2 which I installed this morning within about half an hour: my deepest compliments to the developpers! (I had still 0.62.2 before.) This time I am trying the following:
xy <- list (a= c (1, 2, NA), b= c (2, 3)) list.name <- "xy" get (list.name)$a [is.na (get (list.name)$a)] <- 0
Error: couldn't find function "get<-"
xy
$a [1] 1 2 0 $b [1] 2 3 So obvisouly R does what I would like it to do. How can I get it to do it without the error? The problem is that I need to do this within a function. Thanks for ideas and hints!
