<div dir="ltr">Despite a few minutes of Googling I am unsure of
whether this has been reported, but if it hasn't the following
reliably crashes R "seg fault", on, if it matters, my Linux box
<div><br></div>
<div>sample=data.table(a=1:50,b='N')<br></div>
<div>sample[50,b:=c(1,2,3)]<br></div>
<div><br></div>
<div>I don't know the guts of data.table to know whether it'd be
easy to error check without sacrificing performance. At the very
least maybe some helpful output?</div>
