prioritize: Re-attach packages to prevent masking

In needs: Attaches and Installs Packages

Description

prioritize detaches packages from the search path, then re-attaches them, placing them at the beginning of the search path to prevent masking. This allows for the loading of packages with conflicting function names in any order.

Usage

prioritize(...)

Arguments

...	Packages, given as unquoted names or character strings. Earlier arguments will be attached later (and therefore get a higher priority).

Details

If you find yourself calling this function a lot, you're probably doing something wrong.

Examples

## Not run: 

# loading plyr after dplyr causes badness
