Dear R Experts,
I am running a cluter analysis using kmeans and have come across an error to
which I am unable to find a solution. First, let me describe the problem:
THE R CODE IS:
--------------------------------------
# NRM is a 100 x 100 numerical matrix
infile = 't:\\NRM\\NRM'
groups = 7
outfile = 't:\\NRM\\cluster.groups'
print( paste(infile, groups, outfile, sep=' '))
pairs <- read.table(file=infile, header=TRUE, sep='')
names(pairs) <- row.names(pairs)
dist.pairs <- dist(pairs)
clust <- kmeans(dist.pairs, groups)
write.table(clust$cluster, file=outfile, quote=FALSE)
THE ERROR IS:
----------------------------------------
Error in vector("integer", length) : invalid 'length' argument
Calls: kmeans -> do_one -> switch -> integer -> vector Execution
halted
I ran this code on a WindowsXP R6.2.6 host and it ran fine with acceptable
results. However, the error ocurrs when I run it on CentOS (redhat 4.1.1-52)
R2.7.2. The following search queries yielded no pertinent results from the
web(Google), Google groups, R-help archives (Nabble and Namazu), and R-FAQ:
1. kmeans
2. invalid length argument
3. vector
?vector says that the length argument must be non-negative integer. But I
don't know how to access that call to vector to see what is actually being
used as an argument.
Any help on this matter will be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.
