My first thought was to use Reduce, but I think for this case that is a bit of overkill. You can have a vector or list of functions and just use sapply/lapply on the list of functions then sum the result. A quick example: > funs <- c(sin,cos,tan) > sapply( funs, function(f) f(pi/6) ) [1] 0.50

Dear R Users I have a list of functions. Each function in the list is a function of single variable. I would like to create a function (of one variable) which represents the sum of all the functions in the list. So, if the functions in my list are f1(x),..,f5(x) then I would like a new functio
