Hi,

Found in ?eapply (in current R-devel):

\value{
 A named (unless \code{USE.NAMES = FALSE}) list.  Note that the order of
 the components is arbitrary for hashed environments: currently it will
 be in the order the name-value pairs were added for unhashed

 environments.
}

This looks like a typo.

Only to someone who does not understand hashing. Please try it for yourself:

e <- new.env(hash=TRUE)
assign("a", 1, e)
assign("ab", 2, e)
assign("abcde", 2, e)
assign("ac", 3, e)
assign("b", 4, e)
names(eapply(e, mean))

(and I get
[1] "a"     "b"     "abcde" "ab"    "ac"
)


Thanks,
H.
