Dear all,
Frequently I want to call a print.summary.* function from a wrapping
function of my own. This often leads to trouble, because from within this
wrapping function the print.summary.* will not *see* the information it
needs. Calling print.summary from the uppermost level is no problem (of
course :-) ).
Question:
Is there a commonly agreed to way to program such functions that they will
work under all circumstances?
Otherwise I would call them "top-level-functions-only", and not true
functions. The trouble is that there is no easy way to these two kind apart.
PS: How about R in this respect?
Kind regards
--Christian
