dear members,
I am using GNU R(R in linux CLI). I am trying to
debug a function called "grand.finalelPf". In the function the
following line appears
> yhpf2 <- mclapply(LYG2[-w], fun = forecast, h = 1)
I execute the above line in browse[2] prompt. I then type the following:
Browse[2] > length(yhpf2)
It also is getting executed with the following output:
[1] 464
But when I type this:
Browse[2] > yhpf2[[3]]
the ouput is this:
[1] "Error in lapply(X = S, FUN = FUN, ...) : \n argument
\"FUN\" is missing, with no default\n"
attr(,"class")
[1] "try-error"
attr(,"condition")
<simpleError in lapply(X = S, FUN = FUN, ...): argument "FUN" is
missing, with no default>
Browse[2] >
why is this getting outputted instead of a value? Even if all the yhpf's are
NULL, the above is output is weird.
What is wrong? Why would the output relate to lapply? If the culprit was
mclapply, then why does the line get executed without an error message? The same
function is working perfectly well in windows(I used parLapply instead of
mclapply).
Is this peculiar to R on Linux? Please help....
very many thanks for your time and effort,
Yours sincerely,
AKSHAY M KULKARNI

> args(parallel::mclapply)function (X, FUN, ..., mc.preschedule = TRUE, mc.set.seed = TRUE, mc.silent = FALSE, mc.cores = 1L, mc.cleanup = TRUE, mc.allow.recursive = TRUE) You gave it 'fun=forecast' instead of 'FUN=forecast'.

Read the Value section of ?mclapply. That error is an encapsulated error from the forecast function. I suggest not debugging your code running in parallel... temporarily replace mclapply with lapply to debug so you can step into your worker fictions. You may also want to temporarily reduce the volume of data you are working with.
