Remove all objects from the workspace

Source: R/rmAll.R
rmAll.Rd

Deletes all objects from the workspace, with an optional confirmation prompt.

Usage

rmAll(ask = TRUE)

Arguments

ask

Set to TRUE (the default) to display the current workspace contents and ask for confirmation before deleting. Set to FALSE to delete immediately without prompting.

Value

Invisibly returns 1 if objects were deleted, 0 if the user declined or the workspace was already empty.

Details

Removes all objects from the workspace. When ask = TRUE, the list of objects is printed and the user must type y to confirm before anything is deleted. This is similar to rm(list = objects()), but with an interactive safety check.

  # interactive: displays workspace contents and asks for confirmation

  # non-interactive: deletes immediately without prompting

}
