Hi all! I read R Extensions manual. But still I am not sure how to call R functions from C. Would any of you give me a sample C code to show how to call R functions - for instance, time series functions - from C in the embedded way of C code? [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

....1.0, 3.1.1, and R-devel. I would assume from the documentation that there should be a way to get a clean check, without the timing diffs.

I was recently testing R and RStudio on a high dpi 4K monitor under Windows and noticed that the plot window cannot be scaled or zoomed without affecting the relative sizing of all plot elements (line widths, font sizes, legend spacing etc). RStudio seems to try to overcome this by enabling dpi scaling for the plot window on high dpi screens, but this results in really fuzzy text and graphics

Hello, I've been searching for a method for identify outliers for quite some time now. The complication is that I cannot assume that my data is normally distributed nor symmetrical (i.e. some distributions might have one longer tail) so I have not been able to find any good tests. The Walsh's Test (http://www.statistics4u.info/ fundsta...liertest.html#), as I understand assumes that the

...the screen. We also use all those pixels. Your use cases, of course, may vary. Which, in part, is why R has so much control over the types of graphic devices you create, and how you choose to control them. Regards, Brian -- Brian G.

Hi, I am a beginner to R language and currently exploring R to use it for machine learning use case. My requirement is to include R-core package in my embedded linux box which runs on customized Monta Vista Linux with kernel 2.6.32 and it has multi-core MIPS processor. I hope, there is NO pre-compiled R package for Monta vista linux and mips processor. So, i am trying to do cross compilation

Dear Colleagues/Developers/R enthusiasts, Would it be possible to develop a code of conduct (CoC) document for R lists, CRAN submissions that all developers/maintainers to follow? This may help all of us to better communicate and move forward together. There is a similar effort from Python community, here are the links: * https://mail.python.org/pipermail/scipy-dev/2017-August/022044.html *

So I don't see the point in asking already overworked volunteers to take on and police more formal policies that really seem unnecessary. Regards, Brian --? Brian G.

Dear R community, I am in a quest for a co-mentor, expert in R, for the following GSoC18 project proposal: https://github.com/rstats-gsoc/gsoc2018/wiki/Sampling-and-volume-approximation Thank you in advance for your feedback. Best, Vissarion Fisikopoulos

Hi - I'm wondering if there is any existing package in R that facilitates ACD (Autoregressive Conditional Duration) model. I googled. Apparently there were packages dynamo and fACD. However, they do not seem to be on any CRAN. I am wondering if anyone could point me to an existing package (if any). Thank you. -r

Hello, I have a simple question. I am trying to load data into a zoo object. I have the data in CSV format as follows SYMBOL DATE TIME PRICE XX YYYYMMDD HH:MM:SS n.nn and there are multiple symbols in this one data frame. My question is, do I need to merge DATE and TIME before loading them or can I specify multiple index.column or index.name fields?

Hi, I'm trying to use the library mclust for gaussian mixture on a numeric vector. The function Mclust(data,G=3) is working fine but the fitting is not optimal and is using modelNames="E". When I'm trying Mclust(data,G=3,modelName="V") I have the following message: Error in if (Sumry$G > 1) ans[c(orderedNames, "z")] else ans[orderedNames] : argument is

Hello, Are there any good tools available for monitoring the performance of R? I'm wanting to capture things such as time elapsed in evaluating an expression, memory usage over time (or operation), and so on. I could build my own but would like to follow established practice, if there is one. Thank you, Patrick [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi I want to include ascii art in a function documentation which should look as follow: ,---- | +------+------+------+ | | 1/16 | 1/16 | 1/16 | | +------+------+------+ | | 1/16 | 8/16 | 1/16 | | +------+------+------+ | | 1/16 | 1/16 | 1/16 | | +------+------+------+ `---- to keep the monospaced font even in html, I decided to use \code{}: ,---- | \code{+------+------+------+} | | \code{|

Hello, I am trying to write the default "OrchardSprays" R data frame into HDFS using the "rhdfs" package. I want to write this data frame directly into HDFS without first storing it into any file in local file system. Which rhdfs command i should use? Can some one help me? I am very new to R and rhdfs.

Hello, I want to use a function from another package (which is GPL>=3), about 20 lines of code, in my own package. I somewhat hesitate to depend on the entire package just for this single function, but of course I want to credit the original authors. What would be the best way to do that? Where should I put that credit? Or should I proceed completely different? Best, Felix

Hi, I realized that when I have irregular series to feed into lineChart, the interval of each point in the chart does not seem to take care of irregular time interval I specified in my input xts time series. But rather, lineChart seems to take each point as equal spaced time series. For example, I have the following code: library(quantmod) options(digits.sec=3) t0 <-

Hi, I'm getting some strange behaviour when trying to use the power operator (a^b) when a is large and b is less than one: big <- .Machine$double.xmax big big^0.5 sqrt(big) > big <- 1.797693134862315708384e+308 > big^0.5 [1] Inf > sqrt(big) [1] 1.340781e+154 I'm guessing that this behaviour is not expected, or am I missing something about ^?
