Hello everyone,
How does one write a function to return the name of an input object (that is
assumed to be a data frame) as a character string? I tired using the get(),
but this does not work as I had hoped. For example:
myfn<-function(x){
output<-data.frame(Attribute="Data Set Name",Value=as.character(get(x)))
print(output)
}
foo <- function(x) {
deparse(substitute(x))
}
cheers,
Rolf Turner
