similar to: R 'function' as "subroutine"

Greetings All, Out of curiosity, I've just done a very primitive experiment: Obj <- list(Fun=sum, Dat=c(1,2,3,4)) Obj$Fun(Obj$Dat) # [1] 10 That sort of thing (much more sophisticated) must be documented mind-blowingly somewhere. Where? Where I stand right now: The above (and its immediately obvious generalisations, like Obj$Fun<-cos) is all I know about it so far. Ted.

Hi Folks, I see that people have been discussing the win.metafile device on the list since before 2000. Yet I have never seen this on a Linux distribution of R. Is this because the device works by making calls (GPL calls of course!) to a proprietary Windows library? In that case I can understand that it would be far from kosher to implement it on Linux. But I'd like confirmation. I must

Hi, I would like to draw 10 uniformly distributed sample points from a circle with redius one and centered at (0,0). Is there any R function to do that?   Thanks, [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I have started to read r-help on Gmane using Thunderbird as a reader. Before that I had messages sent to gmail account. The first post through Gmane needed moderator approval, but then I got a message from Your friendly autoauthorizer at Gmane.org saying You are now authorized to post to the gmane.comp.lang.r.general newsgroup. But my messages are still needing moderator approval, which I

I just installed R on my 64 bit SUSE Linux system -- I compiled with the default x windows support on.. This may be a newbie question (apologies in advance)-- but how does this show up in X? I have SSH'd in to my box and set my display -- I can run xcalc OK -- but when I hit the R binary it just goes to the command line -- if does not give me an x-window. I suspect I need another

Lets say you had 4 servers and you wanted to setup replicate and distribute. What methoid would be better: server sdb1 xen0 brick0 xen1 mirror0 xen2 brick1 xen3 mirror1 replicate block0 - brick0 mirror0 replicate block1 - brick1 mirror1 distribute unify - block0 block1 or server sdb1 sdb2 xen0 brick0 mirror3 xen1 brick1 mirror0 xen2 brick2 mirror1 xen3 brick3 mirror2 replicate block0 -

Hi Folks, Maybe I've missed it already being available somehow, but if the following isn't available I'd like to suggest it. If you're happy to let plot() choose its own limits, then of course plot(x,y) will do it. If you know what limits you want, then plot(x,y,xlim=c(x0,x1),ylim(y0,y1) will do it. But sometimes one would like to a) make sure that (e.g.) the y-axis has a

Dear R-listers, I want to reperfrom a poisson distribution test that presented in a recent-published biological research paper (Plant Physiology 2008, vol 148, pp. 1189-1200). That test is about the occurrence number of a kind of gene in separate chromosomes. For instance: The observed gene number in chromosome A is 36. The expected gene number in chromosome A is 30. Then, the authors got a

Hi Folks, I'm wondering if there's a compact way to achieve the following. The "dream" is that, by analogy with rep(c(0,1),times=c(3,4)) # [1] 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 one could write rep(c(0,1),times=c(3,4,5,6)) which would produce # [1] 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 in effect "recycling" x through 'times'. The objective is to produce a vector of

Greetings, Folks. I'd appreciate being shown the way out of this one! I've been round the documentation in ever-drecreasing circles, and along other paths, without stumbling on the answer. The background to the question can be exemplified by the example (no graphics window open to start with): set.seed(54321) X0 <- rnorm(50) ; Y0 <- rnorm(50)

I am interested in studying the binary representation of numerics (doubles) in R, so am looking for possibilities of output of the internal binary representations. sprintf() with format "a" or "A" is halfway there: sprintf("%A",pi) # [1] "0X1.921FB54442D18P+1" but it is in hex. The following illustrate the sort of thing I want: 1.1001 0010 0001 1111

Hi Eli: >> semantics of the fork intrinsic... thinking about it a bit more, I think >> you're going to run into problems with trying to keep around a return block >> through optimizations: How about this? Make all control flow explicit (duh). declare i8 coro.suspend([...]) returns: 0 - resume 1 - cleanup anything else - suspend Now we can get

Hi again! Following up my previous posting below (to which no response as yet), I have located a report which situates this type of question in a longitudinal modelling context. http://www4.stat.ncsu.edu/~dzhang2/paper/glm.ps Generalized Linear Models with Longitudinal Covariates Daowen Zhang & Xihong Lin (This work seems to originally date from around 1999). They consider an outcome Y,

Think I'm missing something to understand what is going on with hist(...) http://n2.nabble.com/What-is-going-on-with-Histogram-Plots-td3022645.html For my example I count 7 unique years, however, on the histogram there only 6. It looks like the bin to the left of the tic mark on the x-axis represents the number of entries for that year, i.e. Frequency. I guess it looks like the bin for

Hi Folks, I'm comparing some output from R with output from SPSS. The coefficients of the independent variables (which are all factors, each at 2 levels) are identical. However, R's Intercept (using default contr.treatment) differs from SPSS's 'constant'. It seems that the contrasts were set in SPSS using /CONTRAST (varname)=Simple(1) I can get R's Intercept to match

Hi Folks, I'm running Debian-4.0 Etch, installed last September from a DVD, and regularly updated as things arise. I have R version 2.4.0 Patched (2006-11-25 r39997) installed (initially at the time of first installation of Debian, as provided by Debian), along with a variety of packages. I'd like to be able to connect to the CRAN repositories for Debian R, for updates etc. When I visit

Greetings! I would like to be able to specify a fixed (say) lower limit for plotting, while leaving the upper limit "floating, when plotting. The context is that the maximum in the data to be plotted is unpredictable, being the consequence of a simulation, whereas I know that it cannot be less than (say) 0; and I want to fix the lower limit at 0 in any plot, leaving the upper limit to be
