In my package I have a dataframe that I use but want to hide from the user. In Hadley's book on R Packages, he says:
> • If you want to store parsed data, but not make it available to the > user, put it in R/sysdata.rda. This is the best place to put data that your > functions need. > I have done that, and sure enough when the package is loaded, the structure is there. However, when I am working on debugging code, and I refer to the structure in a function, RStudio gives a warning that the structure is out of scope, say the data frame is myDF: myFunc <- function(myIndex) { junk <- myDF[index] return(junk) } RStudio will warn that myDF is out of scope. My question is if there is a proper way to refer to myDF so as not to get the warning, or just ignore it. Basically before submission I try to remove all warnings from the editor, even style ones, just to have things cleaner.
