R help - Feb 2012 - how to access values from functions

Hi All

I would like to know how to access the values of the variable
lambda.mu and and see what abs(lambdas[1])
 does since lambdas is not a keyword.

Snippet of the code:

scoreFunction <- function(lambdas)
  {
    lambda.mu <- abs(lambdas[1])

    sme.em(yi,tmei,Xi,Ni,G,lambda.mu,lambda.v)$AICc
  }

Thanks in advance.

Regards
Ap

You can modify the function and add either a print() statement or a
browser() call as make sense for your purposes.

Type the name of the function to get the source: copy and edit it as
desired, and then run something like

funcName <- newSource

Now when you run funcName it will run your new version rather than
whatever package you are using.
