R: Execute a Function Call

do_call {brms} | R Documentation

## Execute a Function Call

### Description

Execute a function call similar to `do.call`, but without deparsing function arguments. For large number of arguments (i.e., more than a few thousand) this function currently is somewhat inefficient and should be used with care in this case.

### Usage

    do_call(what, args, pkg = NULL, envir = parent.frame())

### Arguments

`what` | Either a function or a non-empty character string naming the function to be called.
`args` | A list of arguments to the function call. The names attribute of `args` gives the argument names.
`pkg` | Optional name of the package in which to search for the function if `what` is a character string.
`envir` | An environment within which to evaluate the call.

### Value

The result of the (evaluated) function call.
