There is a global option setting for na.action. See ?na.action . That does not completely address your question but might help with lm, glm, etc.
You could define your own wrapper functions if you know ahead of time which functions with na.rm= args you need. e.g. my.max = function(..., na.rm = getOption("na.rm")) max(..., na.rm = na.rm) getOption("na.rm") # NULL my.max(1, 2, NA) # 2 options(na.rm = FALSE) my.max(1,2,NA) # NA On 8/1/06, Gorjanc Gregor <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hello! > > Is it possible to set na.rm=TRUE in a global way?
