[R] Integrate na.rm in own defined functions

It`s probably an easy question, but couldn`t figure it out.

I`ve defined a function like: 

rmse<-function (x){
dquared<-x^2
sum1<-sum(x^2)
rmse<-sqrt((1/length(x))*sum1)
rmse}

My problem is, that I have NA Values in x and the above function returns NA.

I`m looking for a way to use "na.rm=TRUE" like in for instance
mean(x,na.rm=TRUE).

Does anybody know how to do this?


Thank you very much.

Mauro
