Hello, I would like to add something to a data frame that is 1) invisible to the user, 2) has no side effects, and 3) I can test for in a following function. Is this possible? I am exploring classes and attributes and I have thought about using a list (but 1 and 2 not satisfied). Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I did not provide a reproducible example because I see this as more of a R language question, but I will be happy to make a toy example if that would help. I appreciate all of the help. kindest regards, -- Let's not spend our time and resources thinking about things that are so little or so large that all they really do for us is puff us up and make us feel like gods.
