hi there
i tried to use R from python
my pc is an intel 1600 with win98; python is python 2.2; R is rw1062, and R
(D)COM Server V1.2
when i use the sample code provided in the readme.html, no problem, but when i
try to read a file, a get a traceback error
(please see code enclosed)
has anyone ever tried to read file using python, or send commands from libraries
(MASS...) ?
is there a tutorial for Rcom ( well, i tried to find one with google, but it
didn't work :-(( )
thanks in advance ;-)
regards
emmanuel
the python code is the following :
---------------------------
---------------------------
Python 2.2.2 (#37, Oct 14 2002, 17:02:34) [MSC 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
Type "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more
information.
IDLE 0.8 -- press F1 for help
>>> from win32com.client import Dispatch
>>> sc=Dispatch("StatConnectorSrv.StatConnector")
>>> sc.Init("R")
>>> res = sc.Evaluate("2+2")
>>> res
4.0>>> res = sc.Evaluate("library(modreg)")
>>> sc.Evaluate("library(modreg)")
(u'methods', u'ctest', u'mva', u'modreg',
u'nls', u'ts', u'base')>>> sc.Evaluate("library(MASS)")
(u'MASS', u'methods', u'ctest', u'mva',
u'modreg', u'nls', u'ts', u'base')
##### no pb till here!!

>>> sc.Evaluate('do<-read.table("c:/data.txt",
header=TRUE)')
