The `edit_code` function prompts the user to provide a plain English description of how the code in a given file should be modified. The function then generates the modified code based on the user's input and writes it back to the specified file.

Usage

edit_code(filename, chatlog_id = ".__CURRENTCODEFILE__", ...)

Arguments

filename

A character string representing the name of the file containing the code to be edited.

chatlog_id

An optional character string representing the chatlog ID. Defaults to ".__CURRENTCODEFILE__". This ID is used to maintain the conversation history with the AI.

...

Additional arguments to pass to the chat_completion() function.

Value

Returns the name of the file containing the modified code.

Examples

if (FALSE) {
# Edit code in an existing file based on user input
modified_code_file <- edit_code("example_code.R")

# Check the content of the modified code file
cat(readLines(modified_code_file))
}
