Hi everyone, I've run into a bit of strange problem with implicit vs explicit printing and the call stack. I've included an example at the bottom of this email. The basic problem is that I have an S3 object with a print method. When the object is implicitly printed (ie. typed directly into the console) the function arguments in the call stack are exploded out to their actual values, rather than just the name I typed in (see below for an example if my language is confusing). When I explicitly "print" the object, the call stack is fine.
This is not just of academic interest, because with a larger dataset and an implicit print, there is a noticeable delay before control returns to the prompt (I can't quantify it exactly because system.time requires a explicit print, but it's on the order of a few seconds). I'm not sure if I've provided enough information to be able to solve the problem, so please let me know what additional details would be useful. Thanks, Hadley > ggplot(mtcars, aes(x=cyl, y=-mpg)) + scale_y_log10() + geom_point() Error in grid.pretty(.$domain()) : infinite axis extents [GEPretty(-inf,inf,5)] In addition: Warning messages: 1: NaNs produced in: log(x, base) 2: no non-missing arguments to min;
