hi Valerie,
sounds great, and i think it will do, however, i've encountered a
problem when trying to obtain the tabix index file, required to build
this TabixFile object, with a toy VCF file i'm playing with:
library(Rsamtools)
indexTabix(x.vcf.gz)
Error in value[[3L]](cond) : 'seq' must be

thanks, that all makes sense.
Two approaches to solve the problem:
1. either you Depends on knitr,
2. or make install.packages() also install VignetteBuilder (specified
in DESCRIPTION) when the user chooses to install from source, i.e.

Hello,

opposite is not true as any unmatched formals
Thanks for the lead. Given the example in ?missing though, wouldn't it be safer
to explicitly define a default value of NULL:
myplot - function(x, y=NULL) {
if(is.null(y)) {
y - x
x - 1:length(y)
}
plot(x, y)
}

I agree that failing fast is a good principle. My initial point led the other
way though, i.e. any unmatched formal arguments without default values should
be handled in one of two ways:
1. Fail the function call. This is what most non-functional languages do e.g.
Python
def f(x,y,z): x
...
