similar to: A fix that for 'bquote' that may work (PR#14031)

Hi Jan, In the lisp code you provide the operators are parsed as simple symbols in a pairlist. In the R snippet, they are parsed as left-associative binary operators of equal precedence. If you unquote a call in the right-hand side, you're artificially bypassing the left-associativity of these operators. To achieve what you're looking for in a general way, you'll need a more precise

Dear R-devel, There is a new feature in R-devel, which explicitly refers to LISP @ operator for splicing. > The backquote function bquote() has a new argument splice to enable splicing a computed list of values into an expression, like ,@ in LISP's backquote. Although the most upvoted SO question asking for exactly LISP's @ functionality in R doesn't seems to be addressed by this

Bill, Right. My example was the functional form for clarity. There is a desire for a unary-operator form. (rlang's !! and !!! operators described in the comments in the file I linked to). I can't really make that argument because I'm not one of the people who wanted that. You'd have to talk to the authors of the rlang package to find out their reasons for thinking that is

Your example x = 5 exp = parse(text="f(uq(x)) + y +z") # expression: f(uq(x)) +y + z do_unquote(expr) # -> the language object f(5) + y + z could be done with the following wrapper for bquote my_do_unquote <- function(language, envir = parent.frame()) { if (is.expression(language)) { # bquote does not go into expressions, only calls

Hi, I want to put text on a plot containing something like: a = b^2 = <squared numeric value of b> using bquote. Example: mu = 5 plot(1:10,1:10) text(2,8, bquote(delta == mu^2)) # This works text(2.5,8, bquote(phantom(0) == .(mu^2))) # but is unpredictable text(2,8, bquote(delta == mu^2 == .(mu^2))) # This doesn't work The last text function returns the error:

Hi, R-help, (sessionInfo at the end) I'm trying to construct a function using bquote and running into a strange error message. As an example, what I would like to do is this: z <- 2 eval(bquote(function(x, y) { x^.(z) + y }))(2, 3) However, I get the following: Error in eval(expr, envir, enclos) : invalid formal argument list for "function" However, if I change the

?bquote says it returns an expression but, in fact, it typically (though not always) returns a call object: > class(bquote(a+b)) [1] "call" > class(bquote(1)) [1] "numeric"

Hello, How would i use bquote to create names for a list. e.g. to create list(a=10) bquote(list(.(X)=10), list(X="a")) does not work. The best i could come up with is bquote({ a=list(10);names(a)=.(X); a}, list(X="a")) which is quite ugly. Is there an elegant way to solve this? Regards Saptarshi [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I think rapply() was changed to act like lapply() in this respect. In R-3.1.3 we got rapply(list(quote(1+myNumber)), evalq, envir=list2env(list(myNumber=17))) #[1] 18 rapply(list(quote(1+myNumber)), eval, envir=list2env(list(myNumber=17))) #Error in (function (expr, envir = parent.frame(), enclos = if (is.list(envir) || : object 'myNumber' not found lapply(list(quote(1+myNumber)),

Another aspect of the change is (using TERR's RinR package): > options(REvaluators=list(makeREvaluator("R-3.1.3"), makeREvaluator("R-3.2.0"))) > RCompare(rapply(list(quote(function(x)x),list(quote(pi),quote(7-4))), function(arg)typeof(arg))) R version 3.1.3 (2015-03-09) R version 3.2.0 (2015-04-16) [1,] [1]

Bill, Is your conclusion to just update the code and enforce using the most recent version of R?

Here's a fairly minimal-case example in which the saved EPS does not match the screen. The error comes when using bquote(.(i)) instead of bquote(1), as demonstrated by the two minimally different cases below. Very strange. Any clues as to why? #---------------- begin ------------------- # Version A. X axis labels have subscripts as constants. EPS is correct. windows() layout( matrix( 1:2 ,

I'm using R-2.6.2 on Fedora Linux 9. I've been experimenting with plotmath. I wish it were easier to combine expressions in plotmath with values from the R program itself. There are two parameters in the following example, the mean "mymean" and standard deviation "mystd". I am able to use bquote to write elements into the graph title like mu = mymean and R will

I am curious why you used evalq instead of eval in this code.

Hello R-help List I am writing some R scripts to create graphs of water quality trends that will be called by a web service running R. The axis titles will need to change as the input data (ie. water quality variable) changes according to a user's choice made via a web page. The way I am currently passing call-specific parameters to the R script is via a text file created on the fly by the

Dear list, I found a strange behavior of the graphic display when using bquote to set a title to a plot. The problem arise when you manually resize the graphic window using the mouse. It happens on both quartz and x11 devices. Here's a reproducible example: par(mfrow = c(1,3)) for (i in 1:3){ title <- as.expression(bquote(gamma[.(i)])) plot(1:10, main = title) } Once you ran the

Hi, I need to plot the beta as the symbol, followed by the index 3 as the title of a graph. This code works> main= bquote(paste("Results for ", beta ==.(b1)) but I also need the index 3. I tried (simplified): >plot(x,y, main= bquote(paste("Results for ", beta, "3", ==.(b1)))) and a few other versions, but I can not get it to run properly. Any help would
