[R] a string to enviroment or function

[Weiwei Shi]

then how to do this

f1 <- function(mylab){
  library(mylab)
  ...
}

it seems that if you call
library("hgu133a") # which is file
# but
library(mylab) # even you pass "hgu133a" as parameter, it still
complains about "mylab" does not exist. It seems that it consider
mylab as package instead of its value.
