The thing I find odd about this one is that if we have: e <- new.env() e$x <- 1 f <- new.env(parent=e) f$x # gives an error then I would have expected x to be returned since f is an environment and x is in that environment. On the other hand, if an environment is defined to be the same as a frame (and there is some other word for an environment and its ancestors) then the above notation makes sense. ______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide! http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html
