Currency calculation
I''m thinking of experimenting with some currency conversion. However,
I''d like the conversions to be in synch with the current rates.
Anyone know (and this maybe out in left field) if there is some online
(perhaps xml) or other data stream I can connect with in my code to
output values based on user selection ?
TIA

function arguments: name of an object vs. call producing the object?
In a function, say foo.glm for glm objects I want to use the name of the
object as a label for some output,
but *only* if a glm object was passed as an argument, not a call to
glm() producing that object.
How can I distinguish these two cases?
For example, I can use the following to get the name of the argument:
foo.glm <- function(object) {
oname <- as.character(sys.call())[2]
