Is there a way to call a function, and explicitly set an argument to 'not specified'? My situation is the following. I have a function which passes on most of its arguments to another function. The second function, myfun2, serializes all arguments and is out of my control.
myfun <- function(...){ return(myfun2(...)); } now, the value for arguments of myfun are stored in variables. Say I want to call it with arguments 'foo' and 'bar', which are stored in variables 'myfoo' and 'mybar'. So in my script I call myfun(foo=myfoo, bar=mybar); However, I also want to be able to call myfun2 without any arguments. Is there any value that I can assign to myfoo and mybar, so that myfun(foo=myfoo, bar=mybar); is identical to myfun(); -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/call-a-function-with-explicitly-not-setting-an-argument-tp3688883p3688883.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.
