Well, what would be really helpful is to restrict the scope of all non-function variables, but keep a global for scope of all function variables. Then, you still have access to all loaded functions, but you don't mix up variables.
How would one do that? Adi > Is there a way I can prevent global variables to be visible within my > functions? Yes, but you probably shouldn't. You would do it by setting the environment of the function to something that doesn't have the global environment as a parent, or grandparent, etc. The only common examples of that are baseenv() and emptyenv(). For example, x <- 1 f <- function() print(x) -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Global-variables-tp3178242p3489796.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ 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.
