I hope this question is not a duplicate, because I searched it didn't find any answer(If its a dupe, please let me know I shall remove it).
I am trying to print/display the contents of an environment, but I am unable to do it.
library(rlang)
e1 <- env(a = 1:10, b= letters[1:5])
When I use print
, It just give me memory address not the contents(names and values) of that environment.
> print(e1)
<environment: 0x00000000211fbae8>
Note: I can see the env. contents in R studio Environments tab, I am using R version: "R version 3.4.2" and rlang: rlang_0.2.0
My question is : What is the right function to print contents of an environment, Sorry the question may be naive, but I am unable to figure out. Thanks in advance
We can use get
with envir
parameter to get values out of specific environment
sapply(ls(e1), function(x) get(x, envir = e1))
#$a
# [1] 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
#$b
#[1] "a" "b" "c" "d" "e"
where
ls(e1) # gives
#[1] "a" "b"
