\title{Get record evaluation result from booster}
\usage{
lgb.get.eval.result(
  booster,
  data_name,
  eval_name,
  iters = NULL,
  is_err = FALSE
)
}
\arguments{
\item{booster}{Object of class \code{lgb.Booster}}

\item{data_name}{Name of the dataset to return evaluation results for.}

\item{eval_name}{Name of the evaluation metric to return results for.}

\item{iters}{An integer vector of iterations you want to get evaluation results for. If NULL
(the default), evaluation results for all iterations will be returned.}

\item{is_err}{TRUE will return evaluation error instead}
}
\value{
numeric vector of evaluation result
}
\description{
Given a \code{lgb.Booster}, return evaluation results for a
             particular metric on a particular dataset.
