Yes, you are right. Why don't you try and print r[[1]]?
Anyway, I would put the parameters in a list and pass them to the
function following the below lines.
library(parallel)
foo <- function(pars){
x <- pars$x
y <- pars$y
z <- pars$z
w <- pars$w
alpha <- pars$alpha
res <- (x + y)*z^w
list(result = res, message = alpha)
}
params <- list(
list(x=5, y=4, z=1/2, w=3, alpha="a"),
list(x=5, y=3, z=1/3, w=1, alpha="b"),
list(x=5, y=4, z=1/4, w=1, alpha="c"),
list(x=5, y=2, z=1/5, w=0, alpha="d")
)
cl <- makeCluster(4)
clusterExport(cl, "foo")
clusterExport(cl, "params")
cores <- seq_along(cl)
r <- clusterApply(cl[cores], cores, function(core) {
foo(params[[core]])
})
stopCluster(cl)
do.call(rbind.data.frame, r)
Hope this helps,
