Hi

I would like to have a data.frame, where one column contains functions,
and another one lists. i.e.:

FUN <- function(l) {return(l$a+l$b+l$c}
LIST <- list(a=1, b=2, c=3)

d <- data.frame(fun=FUN, no=LIST, value=2, b=TRUE)

FUN <- function(l) {return(l$a*l$b*l$c}
LIST <- list(a=4, b=5, c=6)

d <- rbind(d, data.frame(fun=FUN, no=LIST, value=2, b=FALSE)

I would like
d$FUN[1](d$l[1] == 6
to be TRUE

I want to use it to save a parameterset for a simulation model, which
consists of functions, lists, and vectors of different length.

Is this possible?


Cheers,

Rainer
