Re: [Rd] anonymous function parsing bug?

You might find it useful to look at what body() shows you for your example and to think about what return does. Best, luke On Fri, 21 Oct 2016, Wilm Schumacher wrote: Hi, thx for the reply. Unfortunately that is not a simplified version of the problem. You have a function, call it and get

Re: [Rd] anonymous function parsing bug?

Hi, thx for the reply. Unfortunately that is not a simplified version of the problem. You have a function, call it and get the result (numeric in, numeric out in that case). For simplicity lets use the "return" case: ## foobar<-function(x) { return(sqrt(x)) }(2) ## which is a function (numeric

Re: [Rd] anonymous function parsing bug?

Hi, sry for the double posting. I forgot to mention that this example ### f<-function(x) { return( 2*x ) }(2) class(f) f(3) f<-function(x) { return( 2*x ) }(4)(5) f(6) ### leads to ## > f<-function(x) { + return( 2*x ) + }(2) > > class(f) [1] "function" > > f(3) [1] 6 > >

[Rd] anonymous function parsing bug?

Hi, I hope this is the correct list for my question. I found a wired behaviour of my R installation on the evaluation of anonymous functions. minimal working example ### f<-function(x) { print( 2*x ) }(2) class(f) f(3) f<-function(x) { print( 2*x ) }(4)(5) f(6) ### leads to ###
