search for: apropos

Martin and I have `written' a function apropos() for finding all objects with names matching pattern. I attach code and documentation. Perhaps one could include it in the distribution proper. We are not sure about returning the position in the search list along with the matching names found. Martin thinks it should be on by default, I think...

Hello, I'm starting working myself in the use of R, reading M. J. Crawley, The R Book. The problem I do encounter is concerning the commands apropos and find: > apropos(edit) Fehler: is.character(what) is not TRUE > find(edit) Fehler: is.character(what) is not TRUE I get the same error message typing anything else instead of "edit". The command ?edit seems to work well. What could be the reason for that I can't use apopo...

Hello all, I've had the following apropos alternative in my ~/.Rprofile for some time, and have found it more useful than the current version. Basically, my version ignores case when searching. If others find this useful, perhaps apropos could be suitably patched (and I'd be willing to create such a patch). + seth Here is my version...

The old apropos started with: if (!is.character(what)) what <- as.character(substitute(what)) The new one has: if (character.only) stopifnot(is.character(what)) else what <- as.character(substitute(what)) i.e., the check for is.character(what) is missing. This has the effect th...

A further improvement to apropos() would be to sort the output. Currently, the output of apropos is in the order found on the search list and this will rarely be useful to the user. All that is needed is a sort(x) at the end of the function. + seth -- Seth Falcon | Computational Biology | Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center...

Some time ago I tried to find out how to compute remainders in R. I now know that it is done with %%, which is documented in help('+'), but before someone told me that I tried: help('remainder'), help.search('remainder'), apropos('remainder') help('modulo'), help.search('modulo'), and apropos('modulo') all of which yielded nothing. I then tried help.search('mod') which yielded many pages of output, none of which seemed to be relevant to remainders. 1) Easy to implement small sugges...

If changes to sprintf behavior are being considered, would it be possible to allow some of the other K&R conversion specifiers? xX - for integer to hex conversion, and c - for ascii value to character conversion would all be useful for me.

The situation is that I know there is a function and know approximately what the name is, and want to find the exact name. Is there a way of searching for near-matches (similar to unix apropos). For example, I know there is a function called something like allequal (or allequals or AllEquals or...). But ?allequal, etc, return nothing, only if I remember the name can I get help via ?all.equal. Thanks -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/searching-help-for-partial-matc...

Since today is American Thanksgiving, I want to thank: (a) R-core for all of their efforts to produce what is, IMHO, the best statistical software around, not simply for the convenience of doing more, better, quicker, but also because it changes the landscape in the way one thinks about data analysis. It's a fantastic playground for a statistician and I enjoy using it

Dear list, Is there any functionality in R that would allow me to parse config files? I have trie ??config and apropos('config') without succes, and also search the R package site. Mvh. Marie [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
