similar to: rep fails on pairlist

Thanks, this was what I expected. There is a desire to eliminate the usage of pairlist from user code, which suggests the alternative of allowing for function arguments to be stored in lists. That's a much deeper change though. On Wed, Oct 12, 2016 at 12:31 PM, Henrik Bengtsson <henrik.bengtsson at gmail.com> wrote: > Michael, thanks for this info. > > I've stumbled upon

Hi, I seem to not be able to assign NULL to an element of a pairlist without causing it to be coerced to a plain list. For example: > x <- pairlist(1, 2) > class(x) [1] "pairlist" > x[1] <- list(NULL) > class(x) [1] "list" This actually true for all [()<- assignments regardless of list value, e.g. > x <- pairlist(1, 2) > x[1] <- list(0) [1]

Hi Henrik, It would help to understand your use case for pairlists.

Hi, ?pairlist gives no explanation about what exactly is the difference between a pairlist and a list (except that a pairlist of length 0 is 'NULL'). So, what's a pairlist? class(.Options) [1] "pairlist" Some strange things about the "pairlist" type: > showClass("pairlist") Error in getClass(Class) : "pairlist" is not a defined class

Full_Name: Glen Herrmannsfeldt Version: 2.2.1 OS: Linux Submission from: (NULL) (128.95.113.77) Following the discussion in "Writing R Extensions" in section 5.8.2, there is no indication that showArgs expects a pairlist() instead of a list(). I was trying .Call("showArgs",list(one=1,two=2,three=3)) for example, and getting many core dumps. It wasn't until reading

I would like to create a vector of pairlist (flag, binary_value) like: (variable ="TrendOff", value = 0) (variable ="MOdwt", value = 1) (variable ? "ZeroPadding", value =1) ................................................ I tried the following syntax but the emcompassing list (that I called "flags") is not made up of pairlists. Instead it

Hy guys, I'm trying something like this minbins <- list() for (minute in sequence(3)) { minbins[minute] <- list(data="a",variable="b") } And it doesn't work ... Warning messages: 1: number of items to replace is not a multiple of replacement length in: minbins[minute] <- list(data = "a", variable = "b") 2: number of items to

Dear all, It seems that as.pairlist does not convert call objects, producing results like the following: > is.pairlist(as.pairlist(quote(x + y))) [1] FALSE Should this behavior be expected?

Dear list, I think I just stumbled across a bug in either 'relist()' and/or 'as.relistable()'. It seems that 'pairlists' can only be un- and relisted as long as they're not nested: Good: a <- as.relistable(as.pairlist(list(a=1, b=2))) a <- unlist(a) relist(a)# Works Bad: a <- as.relistable(as.pairlist(list(a=1, b=2, c=list(c.1=1, c.2=2)))) a <- unlist(a)

Dear R developers Using the 'foreach' package I encounter warnings like Warning message: In identical(.combine, cbind) : ignoring non-pairlist attributes Warnings appear once in a new R-session when I run a particular piece of code - and not again. I understand from the source code of 'identical' that the function checks and believes that .combine and cbind have non-pairlist

Hi, I'm looking for a function that will take a list of columns or data.frame and corvert it to cartesian pairlist. For example for this data.frame (see below), I'd like to get a list of all possible pairs: > sound cs rs ns 7 5 2 4 5 4 6 3 1 8 4 1 6 4 2 6 7 1 2 2 5 9 2 5 how can I get this? > mylist ((cs,rs), (cs,ns), (rs,ns))

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

Hi, A common idiom in the R sources is to convert objects between LANGSXP and LISTSXP by using SET_TYPEOF. However, this is soon going to be disallowed in packages. From what I can see, there isn't currently a direct way to convert between these two object types using the available API. At the R level, one can convert calls to pairlists with: >
