[R] all.equal and names?

Spencer Graves Wed, 18 Aug 2004 07:37:53 -0700

How can I compare two objects for structure, names, values, etc.? With R 1.9.1 under Windows 2000, the obvious choice "all.equal" ignores names and compares only values:

> all.equal(1, c(a=1))
[1] TRUE

Under S-Plus 6.2, I get the comparison I expected:

> all.equal(1, c(a = 1)) [1] "target, current classes differ: integer : named" [2] "class of target is \"integer\", class of current is \"named\" (coercing current to class of target)"

     Thanks,
     Spencer Graves
