[R] reporting multiple objects out of a function

[sina rueeger]

Hi Andrew

I am not sure if I understood your question entirely. You want to store some
objects, but not in the global environment. Correct?! I would do it like
this (although I am sure that there is a more elegant way to do this).

## ----------------------------------------------------------------
obj1 <- 2
attach(what = NULL, name = "my_env")  	## create new environment
assign("obj1", obj1, envir = as.environment("my_env"))  ## assign obj1 to
new environment

rm(list = ls()) ## remove all objects from global environment

obj1  ## still available
ls("my_env")  ## still available in environment "my_env"
## ----------------------------------------------------------------

Regards,
Sina
