| assignList {fame} | R Documentation |
Assigns the values in a list to variables in an environment. The
variable names are taken from the names of the list, so all of
the elements of the list must have non-blank names.
assignList(aList, pos = -1, envir = as.environment(pos), inherits = FALSE)
aList |
a list of values to be assigned to variables with names
given by names(aList). |
pos |
where to do the assignment. By default, assigns into the current environment. |
envir |
the environment to use. |
inherits |
should the enclosing frames of the environment be inspected? |
See assign for details on how R assignment works. This
function simply uses the elements of names(aList) and
aList itself to call the .Internal function used by
assign once for each element of aList.
This function is invoked for its side effect, which assigns values to
the variables with names given by names(aList).
myList <- list(a = 1, b = 2, c = 3) assignList(myList) ## equivalent to a <- 1; b <- 2; c <- 3
