vapply(buylist, slot, "reqstock", FUN.VALUE=0.0) is closer in spirit than sapply() to purrr::map_dbl() - FUN.VALUE gives the expected type and size of f's output. vapply() is usually quicker than sapply(), uses less memory, gives the right results when given a vector of length 0, and gives an error when FUN does not return the specified sort of result.
