Hi All, I'm new to R from a C and Octave/Matlab background. I am trying to construct some classes in R to which I want to attach pieces of data. First, is attr(obj, 'member name') <- data the accepted way of doing this?
Second, having attached member data with attr is there anything wrong with accessing it by the asperand (@), i.e. > t = "" > attr(t, 'test') <- 4 > [EMAIL PROTECTED] [1] 4 I can't find any documentation on using the asperand to access attributes like this. I saw it in a piece of code as I was googling around trying to find some information on attaching data to a class in R. Is this deprecated? Is this poor form? If anyone has some suggestions please let me know.
