Here are two options that might work for you given the little bit you've said:
## If its the same parameter all 30 times
## say, for example, base = 4.5 to log
for(i in 1:30) {
print(log(1:10, base = 4.5))
}
## if they are different parameters, you could try
lapply(X = c(1.3, 3, 2.2, 4, 5), FUN = function(x) {
log(1:10, base = x)})
## the 'X' argument to lapply() is based, one at a time,
## to whatever the function is (the 'FUN' argument)
## so the above is equivalent to
log(1:10, base = 1.3)
log(1:10, base = 3)
log(1:10, base = 2.2)
log(1:10, base = 4)
log(1:10, base = 5)
## but easier to type
Cheers,
Josh
@Ivan do.call() passes a list of arguments, but I am not sure it would
easily adapt to passing 30 different arguments one at a time or even
the same argument 30 times.
