Hi, In the following lines of code are inside of a function, where "TRAIT1" is a function variable calling a column-name inside of the data.frame "new3".
This works just fine: m2 <- lmer(get(TRAIT1) ~ perm.score + (1|site), data=new3) but this will not work, m3 <- lme(get(TRAIT1) ~ perm.score , random= ~1|site, data=new3) I get the following error: Error in model.frame.default(formula = ~TRAIT1 + perm.score + site, data = list( : variable lengths differ (found for 'perm.score') it seems to be putting TRAIT1 on the left side of the equation, and if I am wong about that, this is still not true: length(with(new3, perm.score))==length(with(new3, get(TRAIT1))) Any ideas on either what is going on, or how I can fix this? ** I'm not including example data, or function because I am hoping it is not needed ** Please let me know if I am wrong. -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/problem-with-get-inside-of-lme-tp4629360.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.
