If you set the names in a list, some cat-style processing seems to happen. For example, backslashes are modified. This behaviour doesn't happen with atomic vectors. Compare, for example:
setNames(1, "a\\b") ## a\\b ## 1 setNames(list(1), "a\\b") ## $`a\b` ## [1] 1 Notice that the name of the element in the list has been changed to 'a', 'backspace'. Is this behaviour intended, or a bug? -- Regards, Richie ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
