Hi Everyone, Sorry to bother the list with this small request, but I've run into this issue and was wondering if it could be fixed in the next version of R. Sorry if it was raised in a previous thread:
So when I try the following I get an error: > m <- list() > m[["A3V6HVSALQ835D"]][['profiles']] <- 3 > m[["A3V6HVSALQ835D"]][['stars']] <- c(1, 23) Error in m[["A3V6HVSALQ835D"]][["stars"]] <- c(1, 23) : more elements supplied than there are to replace As does the following: > m <- list() > m[["A3V6HVSALQ835D"]][['profiles']] <- c() > m[["A3V6HVSALQ835D"]][['stars']] <- c() > m[["A3V6HVSALQ835D"]][['profiles']] <- 3 > m[["A3V6HVSALQ835D"]][['stars']] <- c(1, 23) Error in m[["A3V6HVSALQ835D"]][["stars"]] <- c(1, 23) : more elements supplied than there are to replace But when I reverse the order, I don't: > m <- list() > m[["A3V6HVSALQ835D"]][['stars']] <- c(1, 23) > m[["A3V6HVSALQ835D"]][['profiles']] <- 3 As doesn't the following, with the order reversed for the assignment: > m <- list() > m[["A3V6HVSALQ835D"]][['profiles']] <- c() > m[["A3V6HVSALQ835D"]][['stars']] <- c() > m[["A3V6HVSALQ835D"]][['stars']] <- c(1, 23) > m[["A3V6HVSALQ835D"]][['profiles']] <- 3 And when I instantiate it in this way, it does not with the original order: > m <- list() > m[["A3V6HVSALQ835D"]][['profiles']] <- c() > m[["A3V6HVSALQ835D"]][['stars']] <- list() > m[["A3V6HVSALQ835D"]][['profiles']] <- 3 > m[["A3V6HVSALQ835D"]][['stars']] <- c(1, 23) The request is so that order-specific assignments would not throw an error, and I am using version 3.2.2 of R.
