Replicate expression and return results in a list.
Evalulate expression n times then combine results into a list
rlply(.n, .expr, .progress = "none")
.n |
number of times to evaluate the expression |
.expr |
expression to evaluate |
.progress |
name of the progress bar to use, see |
This function runs an expression multiple times, and combines the
result into a list. If there are no results, then this function will return
a list of length 0 (list()
). This function is equivalent to
replicate
, but will always return results as a list.
