similar to: Can a function know what other function called it?

Let me preface my question by stressing that I am much less interested in the answer than in learning a way I could have *found the answer myself*. (As helpful as the participants in this list are, I have far too many R-related questions to resolve by posting here, and as I've written before, in my experience the R documentation has not been very helpful, but I remain hopeful that I may have

Hi Frederick, I described what I meant in the post I sent to R-help (https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2016-September/442174.html), but in brief, by "zero overhead" I mean that the only thing needed for library code to be accessible to client code is for it to be located in designed directory. No additional meta-files, packaging/compiling, etc. are required. Best, G. On Sun, Oct

I'm looking for a way to approximate the "zero-overhead" model of code reuse available in languages like Python, Perl, etc. I've described this idea in more detail, and the motivation for this question in an earlier post to R-help (https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2016-September/442174.html). (One of the responses I got advised that I post my question here instead.) The

I'm an experienced programmer, but learning R is making me lose the little hair I have left... > list(NULL) [[1]] NULL > length(list(NULL)) [1] 1 > x <- list() > x[[1]] <- NULL > x list() > length(x) [1] 0 >From the above experiment, it is clear that, although one can create a one-element list consisting of a NULL element, one can't get the same result by

Hi! I'm new to R programming, though I've been programming in other languages for years. One thing I find most frustrating about R is how difficult it is to use Google (or any other search tool) to look for answers to my R-related questions. With languages with even slightly more distinctive names like Perl, Java, Python, Matlab, OCaml, etc., usually including the name of the language

Hi. I'm pretty new to R, but I've been programming in other languages for some time. I have a couple of questions regarding programming with function objects. 1. Is there a way for a function to refer generically to all its actual arguments as a list? I'm thinking of something like the @_ array in Perl or the arguments variable in JavaScript. (By "actual" I mean the ones

[Was initially posted on cfe-users, sorry.] Hi, I'm sorry my message is quite long, the TL;DR version is "g++ and clang++ seem to have different opinions on how RTTI, templates, and ELF visibility should interact". I can't tell whether this is a bug or not: I have found no relevant documentation that could help me decide whether this behavior is meant, or not. All I can say

Hi all, I expect I'm getting something wrong, but cat("foo bar baz foo bar baz foo bar baz", fill = 10) should be broken into lines of width 10, whereas I get: > cat("foo bar baz foo bar baz foo bar baz", fill = 10) foo bar baz foo bar baz foo bar baz This is on R 3.4.3, but I don't see mentions of it fixed in 3.4.4 or r-devel NEWS. Cheers, David

Hi, I have a situation where I want to delete some of my excluded patterns but still want to preserve some other. For example consider below source and destination directory hierarchy. Source Dest ---------- --------- /foo/bar/ /foo/bar/ | -> baz | -> baz | -> xyz | -> xyz | ->

How can I do this?: foo { name: $bar => "frob" } define foo( $bar = false, $baz = false ) { if #$bar and $baz both defined $cmd = "frobnicate --bar=$bar --baz=$baz ${name}" else if #$bar defined $cmd = "frobnicate --bar=$bar ${name}" else if #$baz defined $cmd = "frobnicate --baz=$baz ${name}" else

Hi John, there?s a bug in Markdown.pl: [foo*bar](#) [baz*quux](#) This expands to the following: <p><a href="#">foo<em>bar</a> <a href="#">baz</em>quux</a></p> Those `*` should either be disregarded or the tags should nest correctly: 1. <p><a href="#">foo*bar</a> <a

Hi, I read below lines in rsync v3.0.5 for --relative option. if you used this command: rsync -av /foo/bar/baz.c remote:/tmp/ ... this would create a file named baz.c in /tmp/ on the remote machine. If instead you used rsync -avR /foo/bar/baz.c remote:/tmp/ then a file named /tmp/foo/bar/baz.c would be created on the remote machine, preserving its full path It is also possible to limit the

Hi, I know S manuals used to warn against using the same names for a variable and a function, but I have never seen that cause problems in R, so I usually don't pay much attention to it. Which is why the following behaviour came as a surprise: > bar <- function() 1 > foo <- function(bar = bar()) { + bar + } > foo(9) [1] 9 > foo() Error in foo() : recursive default

Howdy, [Please preserve the CC to 424919-forwarded at bugs.debian.org on any replies.] The following bug in Markdown was reported to the Debian bug tracking system. In short, running both the released version of Markdown and the latest beta on * foo > bar > baz produces invalid HTML. ----- Forwarded message from Joey Hess <joeyh at debian.org> ----- From: Joey Hess <joeyh

Is it possible for a pass to get access to the command line options passed to it? That is, if I use the CommandLine library to define cl::opt<int> Foo("foo", ...); cl::opt<int> Bar("bar", ...); cl::opt<bool> Baz("baz", ...); and the user runs "opt -load mypass.so -foo=123 -std-compile-opts -baz", can I somehow get a string

I'm using: % ssh -V SSH Version OpenSSH-1.2.3, protocol version 1.5. Compiled with SSL. % uname -a Linux gellar 2.2.13 #1 SMP Wed Dec 29 14:07:41 PST 1999 i686 unknown and am wondering whether it's a fundamental shortcoming of the SSH protocol that argument splitting is not preserved from client to server, but instead the argument list is re-split on whitespace. E.g., from my machine

Hi, I am trying to create a pass that is similar to the GlobalMerge code found here: http://llvm.org/docs/doxygen/html/GlobalMerge_8cpp_source.html I am concerned with lines 149-163 of the above file. From the documentation at the top of the file, it will convert this: static int foo[N], bar[N], baz[N]; for (i = 0; i < N; ++i) { foo[i] = bar[i] * baz[i]; } Into something like this

Suppose I have a string of objects names: name <- c("foo", "bar", "baz") and I would like to use a for loop to automatically create three objects called "foo", "bar" and "baz" accordingly. Then how can this be done" (so that in the workspace, foo = 1, bar = 2 and baz=3) for (i in name) { ..... } Thanks! Mark

Hi Kev, I'm glad to hear llvm-objdump is getting attention. I'm unclear on how much output specialization one could (or should) do for ELF vs. Mach-O. If you're game, let's compare an example: $ cat labeltest.s .text foo: nop bar: bum: nop jmp bar jmp bum jmp baz nop baz: nop Assembling for x86 and llvm-objdump'ing, i get $ llvm-mc
