Hi Dirck,

Thanks for your answer.

I did not take care that in a Rcpp list when I access to the element like this

algoOptions_["nbTry"]

I get a SEXP element

Thanks
Serge

Recall that Rcpp is 'merely' a higher-level C++ interface playing along and
on top of the R API itself --- so for questions like this check the R
headers, documentation and 'Writing R Extensions' manual.

In this case, per the Rinternals.h header:

/* Various tests with macro versions below */
Rboolean (Rf_isNull)(SEXP s);
Rboolean (Rf_isSymbol)(SEXP s);
Rboolean (Rf_isLogical)(SEXP s);
Rboolean (Rf_isReal)(SEXP s);
Rboolean (Rf_isComplex)(SEXP s);
Rboolean (Rf_isExpression)(SEXP s);
Rboolean (Rf_isEnvironment)(SEXP s);
Rboolean (Rf_isString)(SEXP s);
Rboolean (Rf_isObject)(SEXP s);

so   Rf_isNull( someSexpVar )   is what you want.  Works for any SEXP whether
you access it as a single var, or pick it from a list.

Hope this helps, Dirk
