Actually trying it would have revealed > lubridate::%m+% Error: unexpected SPECIAL in "lubridate::%m+%" Notice that this is a syntactical problem, not a semantic one; you cannot juxtapose two operators (:: and %m+%). Quoting is needed. Either of the following seems to work: lubridate::"%m+%" lubridate::`%m+%` In the same vein, notice that the result of the above is not an operator unless assigned to something of the form %foo%. I.e. lubridate::`%m+%`(a,b) f <- lubridate::`%m+%` f(a,b) `%mym+%` <- f a %mym+% b -- Peter Dalgaard, Professor, Center for Statistics, Copenhagen Business School Solbjerg Plads 3, 2000 Frederiksberg, Denmark Phone: (+45)38153501 Email: pd....@cbs.dk Priv: pda...@gmail.com ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
