I have a script that sometimes produces the following error:

Do you think this is a memory issue?  I don't know what else it could be
as it doesn't always occur even if the script is run with exactly the
same data.

Does rm() actually free up memory?

Thanks

Hi,

There are multiple threads on this subject on the R-help list, googling for "formal argument matched by mutiple actual arguments" lead me to:

http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/05/08/10698.html

So this is probably not a memory issue. Freeing up memory can be done using gc().

cheers and hth,
Paul
