how to pass arguments into function within a function in r

Question

I am writing function that involve other function from base R with alot of arguments. For example (real function is much longer):

myfunction <- function (data         


        

Answer 1

Try three dots instead of four, and add the ellipsis argument to the top level function:

myfunction <- function (dataframe, Colv = NA, ...) { 
    matrix <- as.matrix (dataframe) 
    out <- heatmap(matrix, Colv = Colv, ...)
    return(out)
}
