Thank you Max. The reason I used the super assignment "<<-" is because the "dnormfun" function later called by function kronecker(X, Y, FUN = "*",...) through FUN=" ". If I don't use the super assignment "<<-" then the kronecker function cannot find "dnormfun" function. The question now seems that how I can let the kronecker(X, Y, FUN = "*",...) know that "dnormfun" is a "FUN"?

Is this really what you want to do, define a function "dnormfun" that is available in the user's global environment? If yes, then you'll need to make a case for it in your CRAN submision comments. If no, then you can probably just change "<<-" to "<-".

How can I bypass this note? This is the local function which cause this note: dnormfun <<- function(muvalue, sigmavalue, aNumber = gridY[i] ){ force(aNumber) ansvalue=dnorm(aNumber,muvalue,sqrt(sigmavalue)) return(ansvalue) } The package can run normally at my machine. Any suggestion?
