You can also use currying, like this: ll <- function(data) function(params) { # compute whatever you want with data and params. } Then you can call optim like this: optim(initial.param, ll(some.data)) Cheers, Andrew ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
