Hi,
From the R Language Definition, Section 3.4.1:
"If i is positive and exceeds length(x) then the corresponding
selection is NA. A negative out of bounds value for i causes an error."
(This is also mentioned in S Programming, footnote of page 24.)
Can someone please provide an example triggering the error? Looking in
src/main/subscript.c I could not find exception handling for |i| >
length(x), unless the negative subscript is mixed with NAs. In other
cases, out of bounds negative indexes just seem silently ignored.
Did I missed or misinterpreted something, here?
Thanks in advance
