eapply {base}R Documentation

Apply a Function over values in an environment

Description

eapply applies FUN to the named values from an environment and returns the results as a list. The user can request that all named objects are used (normally names that begin with a dot are not). The output is not sorted and no parent environments are searched.

Usage

eapply(env, FUN, ..., all.names = FALSE)

Arguments

env environment to be used.
FUN the function to be applied, found via match.fun. In the case of functions like +, %*%, etc., the function name must be backquoted or quoted.
... optional arguments to FUN.
all.names a logical indicating whether to apply the function to all values

Examples

env <- new.env()
env$a <- 1:10
env$beta <- exp(-3:3)
env$logic <- c(TRUE,FALSE,FALSE,TRUE)
# compute the list mean for each list element
eapply(env,mean)
# median and quartiles for each list element
eapply(env, quantile, probs = 1:3/4)
eapply(env, quantile)
