- When I ask for the names of the available variables
in XLisp using
.XLisp("variables")
I expect the result to be a character vector.
Instead, it is a list of R values of class XLispSymbol objects.
What's this about?
-
The value of the XLisp function
variables
is a "list" of XLisp symbol values.
These are converted to an R list, with each element
converted to an string with the class XLispSymbol
tagged onto it to indicate that it is a symbol and not
a simple string.
