Question

I have created one function Dummyfunc which calculates fold-change for different samples.
I am using gsva function inside this Dummyfunc function. I want to access all the arguments of the gsva function from my Dummyfunc so that I can change the values of the arguments as per the need.
So far I have tried doing like this :-

Dummyfunc <- function(method="gsva",verbose=TRUE,kernel=){
gsva(method=method,kernel=kernel,verbose=verbose)
}

But can it be done in automated fashion so that all arguments of gsva function can be accessed from Dummyfunc

Answer 1

I’m not really sure what you are after, but would about using .... For example:

Dummyfunc = function(...)
     gsva(...)

or

Dummyfunc = function(method="gsva", verbose=TRUE, ...)
     gsva(method=method, verbose=verbose, ...)

We use ... to pass any additional arguments.
