[R] Is there anywhere recycle()?

Hello! I am writting a function, which should recycle one of its arguments if length of the argument is approprate i.e. something like foo - function(x, a) { n - length(x) if(length(a) n) { # recycle a oldA - a a - vector(length=n) a[1:n] - oldA } ## ... return(a) }

Here is another possibility: rep(a, length = length(x)) On 7/23/06, Gregor Gorjanc [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, Gabor Grothendieck wrote: Try: foo2 - function(x, a) cbind(x,a)[,2] thank you for this. It does work to some extent, but not much better than mine foo. foo2(c(1, 2, 3),
