Could someone please explain the following? I did check bug reports, but did not recognize the issue there. I am reluctant to call it a bug, as it is much more likely my misunderstanding. Ergo my request for clarification:
## As expected: > lapply(1:3, rnorm, n = 3) [[1]] [1] 2.481575 1.998182 1.312786 [[2]] [1] 2.858383 1.827863 1.699015 [[3]] [1] 1.821910 2.530091 3.995677 ## Unexpected by me: > lapply(1:3, runif, n = 3) [[1]] [1] 1 1 1 [[2]] [1] NaN NaN NaN [[3]] [1] NaN NaN NaN Warning messages: 1: In FUN(X[[i]], ...) : NAs produced 2: In FUN(X[[i]], ...) : NAs produced ## But note, as expected: > lapply(1:3, function(x)runif(3)) [[1]] [1] 0.2950459 0.8490556 0.4303680 [[2]] [1] 0.5961144 0.5330914 0.2363679 [[3]] [1] 0.8079495 0.1431838 0.3671915 Many thanks for any clarification. -- Bert [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ 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.
