qenv: Instantiates a 'qenv' environment

In teal.code: Code Storage and Execution Class for 'teal' Applications

Instantiates a qenv environment

Description

Instantiates a qenv environment.

Usage

qenv()

Details

qenv class has following characteristics:

• It inherits from the environment and methods such as $, get(), ls(), as.list(), parent.env() work out of the box.

• qenv is a locked environment, and data modification is only possible through the eval_code() and within.qenv() functions.

• It stores metadata about the code used to create the data (see get_code()).

• It supports slicing (see subset-qenv)

• It is immutable which means that each code evaluation does not modify the original qenv environment directly. See the following code:

  q1 <- qenv()
  q2 <- eval_code(q1, "a <- 1")
  identical(q1, q2) # FALSE
  

Value

qenv environment.

q2 <- within(q, a <- 1)
