I think you will find that there is a bias on R-help toward using "base" R functions where it seems "natural". The venue where "tidyverse" solutions are typically returned is StackOverflow.)

It wasn't stated  clearly what you wanted from this. The `eigen` function returns a list object so the apply function neatly handles row based operations:


> apply( test.dat[-1], 1, function(x){eigen(matrix(x,2))})
[[1]]
eigen() decomposition
$values
[1] 4.5615528 0.4384472

$vectors
           [,1]       [,2]
[1,] -0.4896337 -0.9627697
[2,] -0.8719282  0.2703230


[[2]]
eigen() decomposition
$values
[1] 3.7320508 0.2679492

$vectors
           [,1]       [,2]
[1,] -0.5906905 -0.9390708
[2,] -0.8068982  0.3437238


If you instead wanted only the eigenvalues you might have chosen to extract them at the time of the `eigen` call:


 apply( test.dat[-1], 1, function(x){eigen(matrix(x,2))$values})
          [,1]      [,2]
[1,] 4.5615528 3.7320508
[2,] 0.4384472 0.2679492

Do note that the values are returned column-wise.

(I see that you noted in an earlier (duplicate) rhelp posting that you were expecting "younger" respondents. Since I'm in my eighth decade, I probably don't qualify.)

I get this output:
test.out$fit
[[1]]
function(x) eigen(data.matrix(x))
<environment: 0x0000017d35f00518>

[[2]]
function(x) eigen(data.matrix(x))
<environment: 0x0000017d35ef73d0>
