foo2Args()
...that calls other functions,
and was playin with a suggestion Achim made during a conversation at
useR. The idea is, instead of using list(), use a small function to
construct and check arguments. My hope was to be able to do this without
making it globally visible:
foo <- function(x, args=foo2Args()) {
foo2Args <- function(a=1, b=2){list(a,b)}
# above would actual do more testing of args
#now I would call foo2 with args, but to test just
args
}
Now,
> foo(1) # should I be surprized that this works
[[1]]
[1] 1
[[2]]
[1] 2
> foo(1, args=foo2Args(a=2, b=10)) # or tha...

...er instance
where a feature has eluded me for many years.)
Often I have a function which calls other functions, and may often use
the default arguments to those functions, but needs the capability to
pass along non-default choices. I usually do this with some variation on
foo <- function(x, foo2Args=NULL or a list(foo2defaults),
foo3Args=NULL or a list(foo3defaults))
and then have logic to check for NULL, or use the list in combination
with do.call. It is also possible to do this with ..., but it always
seems a bit dangerous passing all the unnamed arguments along to al...

How to solve: Error in * unused argument(s) ?
Hi all,
For some reason, I would like to use functions bellow (see example code
bellow), but instead I get the following error message:
*Error in foo2(...) : unused argument(s) (arg3 = 3)*
#---------------------
# example code
#---------------------
foo1 <- function(arg1,...)
{
print(arg1)
foo2(...)
foo3(...)
}
foo2 <- function(arg2)
{
print(arg2)
}
foo3 <- function(arg3)

Passing (Optional) Arguments
Dear List:
In short, I am writing a number of functions as building blocks for
other functions and have some questions about scoping and passing arguments.
Suppose I have functions foo1, foo2, and foo3 such that:
foo1<-function(a=1,b=TRUE,c=FALSE){#do stuff};
foo2<-function(x=1,y=FALSE,z=c(1,2,3,4)){#do stuff};
foo3<-function(lambda,...){lambda*foo1()*foo2()};
I want to be able to

advice on arguments
I have a general style question about R coding.
Suppose I'm writing a function (foo1) that calls other functions
(foo2, foo3, ...) which have complicated argument
lists (e.g. optim(), plot()), _and_
I may be calling several different functions in the body of
foo1. Since foo2 and foo3 have different sets of arguments, I
can't just use "..." ; I did write some code a while ago
