do_call: Execute a Function Call

In brms: Bayesian Regression Models using 'Stan'

Execute a Function Call

Description

Execute a function call similar to do.call, but without deparsing function arguments. For large number of arguments (i.e., more than a few thousand) this function currently is somewhat inefficient and should be used with care in this case.

Usage

do_call(what, args, pkg = NULL, envir = parent.frame())

Arguments

what	Either a function or a non-empty character string naming the function to be called.
args	A list of arguments to the function call. The names attribute of args gives the argument names.
pkg	Optional name of the package in which to search for the function if what is a character string.
envir	An environment within which to evaluate the call.

Value

The result of the (evaluated) function call.
