Is it good practice to name variables differently when defining more than one function?
- by John
For example, in this simple function where fun1 takes as input two numbers, adds them together and passes them to function 2 for printing the output. var1_in is local to each function, so is it OK to use the name var1_in in both functions, or is it better practice to call them different things?
fun1 <- function (var1_in, var2_in) {
var3 = var1_in + var2_in
fun2(var3)
}
fun2 <- function (var1_in) {
var4 = var1_in
print(var4)
}
