Hello, Sorry if this has already been addressed before but I could not find any helpful references.
I would like to create a function that outputs a single element of a list but stores all elements, similar to 'lm' and many other functions. There are several answers on how to return multiple objects with lists, for example: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/How-to-return-multiple-values-in-a-function-td858528.html http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8936099/returning-multiple-objects-in-an-r-function But the examples show how to print multiple outputs, such as functionReturningTwoValues <- function() {return(list(first=1, second=2))} functionReturningTwoValues() And I only want the function to print a single element from the list but still store the other elements such that they can be retrieved with functionReturningTwoValues$first, for example. My function produces bootstrap coefficients so clearly I don't want to print the bootstrap output but I do want users to be able to access it.
