Assign Values In a List to Names
Description
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.
Usage
assignList(aList, pos = -1, envir = as.environment(pos), inherits = FALSE)
Arguments
aList |
a list of values to be assigned to variables with names
given by |
pos |
where to do the assignment. By default, assigns into the current environment. |
envir |
the |
inherits |
should the enclosing frames of the environment be inspected? |
Details
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.
Value
This function is invoked for its side effect, which assigns values to
the variables with names given by names(aList).
