Hi, I would like to obtain the names of all objects that are provided as further arguments ("...") in a function call. I have created a minimal example that illustrates my wish (but isn't useful otherwise):
f1 <- function( ... ) return( deparse( substitute( ... ) ) ) x1 <- 1 x2 <- 2 x3 <- 3 f1( x1, x2, x3 ) [1] "x1" However, I would like to obtain the names of *all* further arguments, i.e. "x1", "x2", and "x3". Is this possible in R? Does anybody know how to do this?
