Question

I programmatically evaluated several models, whose names are in a vector models. How can I then use the function mtable with them, calling them programmatically?

Here is an example :

library(memisc)
a <- rnorm(100,0,1)
b <- rnorm(100,0,1)
c <- rnorm(100,0,1)
d <- rnorm(100,0,1)
mod1 <- lm(a ~ b)
mod2 <- lm(c ~ d)
models <- c("mod1", "mod2")
mtable(mget(models,envir=globalenv()))

I then get an error: "no method available for 'getSummary' for an object of class 'list'".

What can I do? I tried call and do.call but without success.

Answer 1

Using do.call:

do.call(mtable, mget(models,envir=globalenv()))
