An expression, involving the names of columns in a hyperframe, is evaluated separately for each row of the hyperframe.
# S3 method for hyperframe
with(data, expr, ...,
                         simplify = TRUE,
                         ee = NULL, enclos=NULL)A hyperframe (object of class "hyperframe")
    containing data.
An R language expression to be evaluated.
Ignored.
Logical. If TRUE, the return value
    will be simplified to a vector whenever possible.
Alternative form of expr, as an object of class
    "expression".
An environment in which to search for objects that are
    not found in the hyperframe. Defaults to parent.frame().
Normally a list of length
  \(n\) (where \(n\) is the number of rows) containing the results
  of evaluating the expression for each row. 
  If simplify=TRUE and each result is a single atomic value,
  then the result is a vector or factor 
  containing the same values.
This function evaluates the expression expr in each row
  of the hyperframe data. It is a method for the generic
  function with.
The argument expr should be an R language expression
  in which each variable name is either the name of a column in the
  hyperframe data, or the name of an object in the parent frame
  (the environment in which with was called.)
  The argument ee can be used as an alternative
  to expr and should be an expression object (of
  class "expression").
For each row of data, the expression will be evaluated
  so that variables which are column names of data are
  interpreted as the entries for those columns in the current row.
For example, if a hyperframe h has columns
  called A and B, then with(h, A != B) inspects
  each row of data in turn,
  tests whether the entries in columns A and B are
  equal, and returns the \(n\) logical values.
# NOT RUN {
  # generate Poisson point patterns with intensities 10 to 100
   H <- hyperframe(L=seq(10,100, by=10))
   X <- with(H, rpoispp(L))
