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

Tested in R 2.8.1 Windows > ff <- formals(function(x)1) > ff1 <- as.list(function(x)1)[1] # ff1 acts the same as ff in the examples below, but is a list rather than a pairlist > dput( ff , control=c("warnIncomplete")) list(x = ) This string is not parsable, but dput does not give a warning as specified. > dput( ff ,

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

Inspired by the exchange between Rolf Turner and Wacek Kusnierczyk, I thought I'd clear up for myself the exact relationship among the various sequence concepts in R, including not only generic vectors (lists) and atomic vectors, but also pairlists, factor sequences, date/time sequences, and difftime sequences. I tabulated type of sequence vs. property to see if I could make sense of all
