Every time I have to prefix a dataframe column inside the indexing
brackets with the dataframe name, e.g.
df[df$colname==value,]
-- I am wondering, why isn't there an R scoping rule that search
starts with the dataframe names, as if we'd said
with(df, df[colname==value,])
-- wouldn't that be a reasonable default to prepend to the name search
path?
Cheers,
Alexy
