If one is to create their own infix function, it needs to have the form %fun_name%
. Why isn't that the case with :=
of tidyverse
? Also, the same with the operator !!
, also form tidyverse
.
Why doesn't the infix function := from tidyverse need the % around it?

These operators are not functions. They are only meaningful when supplied as part of arguments to functions that use non-standard evaluation and know how to handle them. The R interpreter does not treat these operators as functions and you cannot call them directly. If you call
!!something
outside of a quasiquoted argument the interpreter treats it as:If you call
:=
outside of a quasiquoted argument you get an exception.As an aside, you can always overload base infix functions or define new S3 methods for them without needing
%
. The interpreter always treats these symbols as infix functions and they are not reserved. e.g:For some reason R does allows the definition of a function
:=
and will evaluate the resulting function as an infix function. However, this is not howrlang
ordata.table
actually implement:=
. Other symbols that begin with:
, e.g.:+
, or end with=
, e.g.!=
, are not interpreted as infix functions; I am not sure why this should be the case, as the symbol:=
is not used in base R. The interpreter's unique ability to evaluate it as an infix function is unexpected, at least to me.
