evalfun: Evaluate function name with lists of arguments

In JeffWeinell/misc.wrappers: Miscellaneous Wrapper Functions for Spatial Population Genomics

Evaluate function name with lists of arguments

Description

This function determines which entries in the lists 'supplied' and 'passed' are arguments of the function 'fun.name', and then evaluates the function with those arguments. Entries with names that are not arguments of 'fun.name' are ignored, making it possible to include arguments for multiple functions called in a parent function with argument '...'. See examples.

Usage

evalfun(fun.name, supplied.list = NULL, passed = list(...), ...)

Arguments

fun.name	Character string with name of the function to be evaluated
supplied.list	Arguments and values of fun.name defined explicitely in a list
passed	A list with names equal to argument names in the set of names of some arguments with values to use for arguments. This list is typically formed by capturing the "additional arguments to be passed with '...'" in a parent function list(...).
...	Arguments and values of fun.name defined explicitely and not together in a list

Value

Value returned by evaluating the function with 'fun.name' and arguments in lists 'supplied' and 'passed'
