similar to: DOH! RE: R 2.1.0 for Windows installation error? atanh not in R.dll?

Could someone please tell me what I did wrong to create this message or what I should do to correct this problem? I downloaded 2.1.0 Windows binary and installed into C:/R/rw2010, using the installer. I ran md5check.exe in C:/R/rw2010/bin/ and got "No errors." The problem is this: When I start up Rgui.exe from its shortcut (target= C:\R\rw2010\bin\Rgui.exe --save -sdi, Start in

I was just looking for an easy way to convert between COM datetime and chron datetime (both ways.) I found examples on the list, but they involved origin. Does anyone have functions for converting COM datetime <-> chron datetimethat work "safely"? David L.

Hi again, I've just uninstalled R2.01 and installed the new R2.10 on my WindowsXP machine. I then attempted to install the vegan package from source files, as I learned to do last week, with the help of some of you. I have updated my path variable to the new R directory (R/rw2010/bin instead of R/rw2001pat/bin), and I've still got the HTMLHelpWorkshop files installed, as well as Perl

But that doesn't put the result into the history buffer, to be written to a file only later when I savehistory(filename). Bert Gunter also suggested ?capture.output and ?textConnection, but I cannot see how to get text into the history buffer as comments, but with evaluated expressions (values). I know how to use paste, sink, write, etc. but nothing that I can see inserts into the history

?unique says Value: An object of the same type of 'x'. but if an element is equal to one with a smaller index, it is removed. However, I need to keep the one with the LARGEST index. Can someone please show me the light? I thought about reversing the row order twice, but I couldn't get it to work right (My data frame has 125000 rows and 7 columns, and I'm

I'm using v 1.9.1 under Windoz XP. Can I do the equivalent of "ls -l" on my R objects? R's "ls()" lists only the names. Thanks! David L. Reiner Rho Trading 440 S. LaSalle St -- Suite 620 Chicago IL 60605 312-362-4963 (voice) 312-362-4941 (fax) [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I'm trying to use/modify some code I found (at Omegahat, but I've seem similar usage elsewhere.) It contains the lines: if(any(origin(chronDate)!=orig)) origin(chronDate) <- orig Let's say: > require("chron") [1] TRUE > chronDate <- chron("11/15/2005", format="m/d/y", origin.=c(12,31,1899)) > orig <- c(month=12, day=31,

I'm having trouble with the standard deviation distribution as shown on http://mathworld.wolfram.com/StandardDeviationDistribution.html . (Eric Weisstein references Kenney and Keeping 1951, which I can't check.) I believe the graphs they show, but when I code the function in R, according to the listed formula, I get very different graphs. Would someone please point out my error or tell

Hi: I'm trying to create a package to pass to someone else to use a group of functions with help files. I'm working on Windows XP. Step One: I use the example > ## two functions and two "data sets" : > f <- function(x,y) x+y > g <- function(x,y) x-y > d <- data.frame(a=1, b=2) > e <- rnorm(1000) > >

Could someone please suggest a more clever solution to the following problem than my loop below? Given X a 2xN matrix X, and I a k-subset of N, Generate the (2^k)xN matrix Y with columns not in I all zero and the other columns with all choices of an entry from the first or second row of X. For example, with X <- matrix(1:8, nrow=2) I <- c(1,3) X is 1 3 5 7 2 4 6 8 and Y should be 1 0 5

Could someone please help me by giving me a reference to how one computes standard errors for the coefficients in an orthogonal linear regression, or perhaps someone has some R code? (I would accept a derivation or formula, but as a former teacher, I know how that can rankle.) I tried to imitate what's done in the code for lm() but went astray somewhere and got nonsense. (This type of

pretty() works well for numbers and axTicks() can help for potting log axes, but has anyone written a pretty for chron objects (or other date or date-time classes)? It would have natural units of years, months, .., days, hours, (minutes?), and it would choose the appropriate unit based on the date(time) range. I have searched the archives and documentation to no avail. (I wrote one of these back

I'm getting warnings when I plot a zoo object: > dts <- chron(rep("2007-09-10", 5), paste("00:0", 0:4, ":00", sep=""), c("y-m-d", "h:m:s")) > dat.zoo <- zoo(1:5, dts) > plot(dat.zoo) Warning messages: 1: In v[[perm[1]]] : partial match of 'm' to 'month' 2: In v[[perm[2]]] : partial match of 'd'

This is a windows-specific question. After generating a plot, I can print from scripts or the command line with > dev.print(win.print,printer="local windows printer name") I would like to print in landscape mode. From the menus, I can accomplish this by changing the properties of the printer before clicking "print". However, I tried adding

I just noticed a change in the behavior of list.files from 2.6.1pat to 2.7.0 (I noticed it in 2.8.1 and traced back.) Previously, if the directory ended with a slash, and full.names=TRUE, the names returned had a single slash at the end of the directory, but now there are two. I noticed since I was getting a list of certain files and then grepping in the list for a full name formed with a

Hi everybody, I have trouble in installing packages from source code by following Section 5.1 in manual R-admin.pdf . I am using R 2.1.0 and Win NT. Following the Windows toolset section in the manual, I download the tool set package from: http://www.murdoch-sutherland.com/Rtools/tools.zip and unzip under C:\tools I also downloaded Perl (Windows Port) and installed it.

I'd like to insert (for example) the current datetime into a comment so it goes into the history. I can of course cut and paste the results of date() into a comment line, but it would be easier and more powerful to be able to type something like > hstamp() and have it go into the history. More generally, I would like to put any expression to be evaluated into this function. For

I have a data.frame which I believe is melted already and am having trouble casting it to 'wide' format.
