[Rd] `mode`
Hello,
Kindly revise the documentation for `mode` to reflect
foo <- function () {}
typeof(foo)
# [1] "closure"
mode(foo)# [1] "function"
`help(mode)` states:
Modes have the same set of names as types (see typeof) except that
types "integer" and "double" are returned as "numeric".
types "special" and "builtin" are returned as "function".
type "symbol" is called mode "name".
type "language" is returned as "(" or "call".
I am presently reading `help(mode)` on:

Re: [Rd] base R pipe documentation
OK, zapped the \note for 4-1-branch (for now). This close to release, changes have to be very small and safe to be allowed in, so anything more than that will have to wait for a later version. - Peter > On 17 May 2021, at 19:20 , Ben Bolker wrote: > > As of right now, as far as I can tell, the documentation for the new native > |> pipe still says that it's experimental. > > https://github.com/wch/r-source/blob/trunk/src/library/base/man/pipeOp.Rd#L45 > > *Pipe support is experimental and may change prior to release.* > > Also still in the 4-1 branch: > > https://github.com/wch/r-source/blob/R-4-1-branch/src/library/base/man/pipeOp.Rd#L45 > > (The corresponding comment in the NEWS file has been fixed in the last 24 > hours, but hasn't propagated to the online/HTML version on the developer page > yet ...) > > As a "wish list" item, if there are any particularly salient/important > differences between the |> pipe and the %>% magrittr pipe, it would be great > to have those documented (I know that documenting the difference between a > base-R operator and the one that's implemented in a non-Recommended package > is a little weird, but it would be helpful in this case ...)

[Rd] base R pipe documentation
As of right now, as far as I can tell, the documentation for the new native |> pipe still says that it's experimental. https://github.com/wch/r-source/blob/trunk/src/library/base/man/pipeOp.Rd#L45 *Pipe support is experimental and may change prior to release.* Also still in the 4-1 branch: https://github.com/wch/r-source/blob/R-4-1-branch/src/library/base/man/pipeOp.Rd#L45 (The corresponding comment in the NEWS file has been fixed in the last 24 hours, but hasn't propagated to the online/HTML version on the developer page yet ...) As a "wish list" item, if there are any particularly salient/important differences between the |> pipe and the %>% magrittr pipe, it would be great to have those documented (I know that documenting the difference between a base-R operator and the one that's implemented in a non-Recommended package is a little weird, but it would be helpful in this case ...) I know I could go back to the mailing list discussion at https://hypatia.math.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2020-December/080173.html and try to figure it out for myself ... cheers Ben Bolker __ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
