I'm not CRAN, but something like this might be permissible while satisfying your requirements.
z <- function(..., assign.env = parent.frame(1)) assign(as.character(s), temp3, envir = assign.env) The problem with assigning to the global environment is that z might be called where it is expected to only have a local effect. If users really want to assign to the global environment, providing an option might be appropriate. z <- function(y, s, assign.env = getOption("TSEtools.z.env", parent.frame(1))) assign(as.character(s), temp3, envir = assign.env) options("TSEtools.z.env" = .GlobalEnv) On Sun, 7 Jan 2018 at 23:21 Saeb <ali.s...@gmail.com> wrote: > > The function downloads the list of index's value and assigned them to > the individual's name correspond with the indexes.
