To avoid extra clutter I have deleted the rather long question which is obtainable from https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help//2007-December/147754.html I received a very helpful response off-list the gist of which I summarise below. Since it was off-list I have removed the attribution. S Poetry might help you. I believe that it does answer why the answer to Q5 is yes. It doesn't matter what argument name you choose -- just be consistent. And of course S Poetry is available from: http://www.burns-stat.com Michael Dewey http://www.aghmed.fsnet.co.uk ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
