Why this kind of assignment does not work? n <- 1 f <- ifelse(n == 1, sin, cos) f(pi)
this must be rewritten as: n <- 1 f <- cos if (n == 1) f <- sin f(pi) [oops. 1.224606e-16 instead of zero. Damn floating point errors :-/] Alberto Monteiro ______________________________________________ R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list 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.
