I like these suggestions as well http://www1.maths.lth.se/help/R/RCC/
So for your function, combining the x and y coords into a single structure ( they are always paired so have a structure that reflects that ) dataToShape <- function( inputFileName, outputFileName, points, projection, height) And to be even more explicit you would want your function name to start with a verb. transformDataToShape. and lastly you might consider how to abtract your functions into more reusable parts. so one function to read your data in. and a different function to write Shapes out writeShape(x,outputFileName) On Mon, Sep 13, 2010 at 12:09 PM, gianni lavaredo <gianni.lavar...@gmail.com > wrote: > dear Researchers, > > I am writing a function to improve my skills in R and make more elegant > code > but I need a simple suggestion, because I am looking libraries to learn the > right syntax. > Is It correct to name the input file "Input" (with uppercase i) and Output > file "Output" or "filename"? > > thanks Gianni > > > data2shp <- function( > Input, > Output, > coord.X, > coord.Y, > Projection, > Height > ) ................................... > > [[alternative HTML version deleted]] > > _______________________________________________ > R-sig-Geo mailing list > R-sig-Geo@stat.math.ethz.ch > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-geo > [[alternative HTML version deleted]] _______________________________________________ R-sig-Geo mailing list R-sig-Geo@stat.math.ethz.ch https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-geo
