Good day, Some programming languages, such as C++, allow function overloading. Is it possible to mimic it when creating S4 methods?
An example from an undergraduate text book is: int largerInt(int x, int y); char largerChar(char first, char second); You can write the previous function prototypes simply as int larger(int x, int y); char larger(char first, char second); Conversely, it does not seen to be possible to use different formal argument names for a S4 generic, unless I don't know about some obscure trick to do it. -------------------------------------- Dario Strbenac University of Sydney Camperdown NSW 2050 Australia ______________________________________________ R-package-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-package-devel
