Hello, using the <<- assignment operator I do not understand why the following does not work.
l <<- list() l list() l$arg1 <<- "test" error in l$arg1 <<- "test" : Objekt 'l' not found ?"<<-" says: "The operators <<- and ->> cause a search to made through the environment for an existing definition of the variable being assigned. If such a variable is found (and its binding is not locked) then its value is redefined, otherwise assignment takes place in the global environment. " Still I do noch understand why the above does not work. The object l is in the global environment. Can someone explain it to me?
