R Project Updates
Updates from R Core:
R CMD INSTALL <pkg>
now produces the intended error message when, e.g., theLazyData
field is invalid.dput()
,deparse()
anddump()
now print thenames()
information only once, using the more readable(tag = value)
syntax, notably forlist()
s, i.e., including data frames.These functions gain a new control option
"niceNames"
(see.deparseOpts()
), which when set (as by default) also uses the(tag = value)
syntax for atomic vectors. OTOH, without deparse options"showAttributes"
and"niceNames"
, names are no longer shown also for lists.as.character(list( c (one = 1)))
now shows the name asas.character(list(list(one = 1)))
has always done.m:n
now also deparses nicely when m > n.mclapply
,pvec
andmcparallel
(whenmccollect
is used to collect results) no longer leave zombie processes behind.Subassignment with zero length vectors now coerces as documented.
