one way is:
test <- function(x, y, ...) {
dots <- list(...)
if (length(dots)) cat("\nnon-empty\n") else cat("\nempty\n")
}
test(1, 1)
test(1, 1, 1)
I hope it helps.
Best,

Hi,
I was wondering what would be the best way to check if the three dots
argument contains any arguments (i.e. does ... contain any arguments or
not? )
#Example
test = function(x,y, ...)
{
#Wanted R-Code
# if(empty(...))
# do some calculation
plot(x,y,...)
}
Thanks
Thomas Roth
