RObject _ Thing = Thing -- replace a single element of an R object

Operator: _
Usage:

x_i = e
Inputs:
- x, a R object,
- i, a thing, the index (one-based);
- e, a thing, the replacement value;
Outputs:
- a R object, a copy of x with its i-th element replaced by e;

Description

Replace a single element of an R vector or list. Note that this only affects the return value; the original object x is not modified.

i1 : x = RObject toList(5..15)

--error or time limit reached in conversion of output to net: type 'debugError()' to run it again; will try conversion to string

o1 = 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15

o1 : RObject of type integer

i2 : x_1 = 3

--error or time limit reached in conversion of output to net: type 'debugError()' to run it again; will try conversion to string

o2 = 3, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15

o2 : RObject of type integer

i3 : x

--error or time limit reached in conversion of output to net: type 'debugError()' to run it again; will try conversion to string

o3 = 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15

o3 : RObject of type integer
