Dear all, I am trying to write a script to pause the execution of a function and provide some additional commands to the function and then continue execution of the function. For example, when my function detects a wrong number in a dataset, the function pauses automatically and returns information on the screen: ?There is a wrong number in the dataset. Would you like to correct it? ? If I

Dear all, I have a question about how to set arguments in my own function. For example, I have a function that looks like this: my.f <- function(a = x1, b = x2) { x1 = equation 1 x2 = equation 2 x3 = equation 3 y = a + b } x1, x2, and x3 are temporary variables (intermediate results) calculated from other variables within the funciton. I want to use two of these three

Hello, All, I have a dataset that looks like this: x <- matrix(c( 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 2, 1, 1, 2, 1, 1, 3, 1, 1, 3, 1, 1, 3, 1), ncol = 5, byrow = T, dimnames = list(1:10, c("gender", "race", "disease"))) I want to write a function to produce several matrices including only ?TRUE? and ?FALSE? for the different levels of the

Hello, All, I want to write a function to do some works based on the arguments. For example, bind some variables (arguments) as this: myfunction <- function(arg1, arg2, arg3, ?) { x <- cbind(arg1, arg2, arg3, ?) } myfunction(arg1, arg2, arg3, ?) The function can automatically determine the number of arguments and bind them, which means if I assign 2 arguments, the function can bind

Dear all, I have a question about deleting components of a list.

Dear all, I have a question about how to suppress intermediate results in a function on console. For example, I will use summary() in my own function that looks like: myfunction <- function(?) { ? Summary(x) ? } Then myfunction() will print ?x? on console that is intermediate result and doesn?t need showing. Does someone have any idea or any suggestion? Thank you in advance. Lisa
