rm(ls()=='function')

[Jonathan Rosenblatt]

Don't run the code in the subject.

My question is how can one remove from the workspace all objects of a given class? Say, function.

OK... possibly solved it...

function.ind <- unlist(

  lapply(

    lapply(

      mget(ls()),

      class)

    , function(x) x[[1]]=='function')) 

rm(list=ls()[function.ind])

you can use

as.list(.GlobalEnv) to get a list of all objects in your environment (instead of the list of names you get by ls() ). you can then apply the class() function to that list, and so on. I'm not sure if the code gets less messy than yours, but I think it is logically cleaner.
