Adding a simplify argument to by would suit me fine.
In my (limited) experience in using R, the automatic simplification
that R does in various situations is one of it's most troublesome
features. It means that I cannot expect a program to work even if I
give it data of the same types as I
Unfortunately your proposed change changes the type of the output:
simplification is intended in many applications of by().
Before:
> str(by(mytimes$date[1], mytimes$set[1], function(x)x))
by [, 1] 1.21e+09
- attr(*, "dimnames")=List of 1
..$ mytimes$set[1]: chr "1"
- attr(*, "call")= l
4 matches
