Hi everyone,

Would somebody please explain (or point me to a reference that explains) the following error:

"Error: object of type 'closure' is not subsettable"

I was trying to use rep() to replicate a function:

> example_function <- function() { return(TRUE) }
> rep(example_function, 3)
Error: object of type 'closure' is not subsettable

But I just cannot understand this error. I can combine functions using "c" without any problems:

> c(example_function, example_function)
[[1]]
function ()
{
   return(TRUE)
}

[[2]]
function ()
{
   return(TRUE)
}

What am I doing wrong when I use rep()?

Thanks in advance,

Matthew Walker
