--no real usage--
name
| name of the R function. |
.Primitive
is not a real R object, but rather the result of a
syntactically pleasing print method for so called ``primitive''
internal R functions.
The advantage of .Primitive
over .Internal
functions is the potential efficiency of argument passing.
.Internal
.c .Internal # this one *must* be primitive! get("if") # just `if' or `print(if)' are not syntactically ok.
