Hi,
I am calling a function with different arguments to read different
files and
want the results to be stored in
different matrices.
Ex:
cData1 = NULL
cData2 = NULL
readData = function(cData, start, end)
{
....
cData = //reads from the file
}
I am calling the functions using
readData(cData1,1,3)
readData(cData2,4,7)
But After running the code, cData1 and cData2 are not getting updated.
Is there a way in R to do this?
You need to assign the results of the function to an R object in the
global environment. At the moment calling readData() only creates the
cData object in the environment of the function which then disappears
after function completion.
Try :
cdata_1_1_3 <- readData(cData1,1,3)
cdata_2_4_7 <- readData(cData2,4,7)
