I need to allocate (using C nomenclature) a set of "global" variables, some
integer scalars and some double vectors.
I have placed the name of such variables in the file containing the main script
and the called functions:
# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# --------------------------- GLOBAL DATA & CONSTANTS ----------------------
EntrThreshold <- 1.e+35
NCMAX <- 50
ncof <- 0
ioff <- 0
joff <- 0
sig <- 0.0
cc <- vector(length=NCMAX)
cr <- vector(length=NCMAX)
Function "pwtset", called by function "ford", changes the content of variable
'ncof' as confirmed by the debigging printed values.
But when function "pwset" exits and the flow control returns to the caller
"ford" then variable 'ncof' has not kept the value assigned by "pwset", as if
function "pwset" had allocated its own variable 'ncof'.
My question is: how can I have R interpreter allocate "global"variables visible
and accessible by all the functions in the same file ?
"pwtset" <- function(n) {
cat("\n BEGIN 'pwtset' \n")
if(n < 100){
ncof <- n
}else{
ncof <- n -100
}
........
}
BEGIN 'pwtset'
function 'pwtset': ncof = 4
END 'pwtset'
function 'ford': BEFORE calling wt1, ncof: 0
Thank you very much for removing my confusion.
