Hi I want convert, in a function, an argument from a numerical value to a function which returns this value.:
My Code:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
dep <- 13
dep <- function() {dep}
dep
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
This is what I get:
#+RESULTS:
,----
| function(PAI) { dep }
`----
This is what I want
,----
| function(PAI) { 13 }
`----
I thought about using eval(dep), but this gives me the effectively the
same.
Is it possible to achieve what I want? I somehow have the feeling this
is not that easily possible, as the code in the function definition is
only evaluated when the function is evaluated.
I could obviously do something like
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
dep <- 13
depVal <- dep
dep <- function() {depVal}
dep()
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
But is there a better solution?
Thanks,
Rainer
