Hi,

Found in ?eapply (in current R-devel):

\value{
A named (unless \code{USE.NAMES = FALSE}) list. Note that the order of
the components is arbitrary for hashed environments: currently it will
be in the order the name-value pairs were added for unhashed

environments.
}

This looks like a typo.

Only to someone who does not understand hashing. Please try it for
yourself:

e <- new.env(hash=TRUE)
assign("a", 1, e)
assign("ab", 2, e)
assign("abcde", 2, e)
assign("ac", 3, e)
assign("b", 4, e)
names(eapply(e, mean))

(and I get
[1] "a" "b" "abcde" "ab" "ac"
)

The statement is about unhashed environment:

 > e <- new.env(hash=TRUE)
 > assign("b", 1L, e)
 > assign("a", 2L, e)
 > eapply(e, identity)
$a
[1] 2

$b
[1] 1

so it doesn't look like it's true either.

Sorry I try again:

> e <- new.env(hash=FALSE)
> assign("b", 1L, e)
> assign("a", 2L, e)
> eapply(e, identity)
$a
[1] 2

$b
[1] 1

pfffff!! Sorry for the noise... :-b

Thanks,
H.




Thanks,
