search for: capitals

Hello list, I'm following the paper (http://www.jstatsoft.org/v27/i02/paper) on how to use "plm" to run panel regressions, and am having trouble with what I believe should be something very basic. When I run the command (p.9 in the paper): R> dynformula(emp~wage+capital,log=list(capital=FALSE,TRUE),lag=list(emp=2,c(2,3)),diff=list(FALSE,capital=TRUE)) I see: emp ~ wage +

each loop inside a mixed hash I need to determine if the value is an instance of String How ? hash.each do |k,v| if v ( instance of ) String hash[ k ] = v.capitalize enf end

Martin Maechler has suggested that I post this comment to r-devel. It was originally posted to bioconductor. --------------------------------- I'd like to raise the issue of a capitalization convention for naming objects in R. Almost everything in R used to be lowercase but recently there is increasing use of mixed upper/lower case to define names. There is potential for using the

Hey fellas: In the context of the gambler's ruin problem, the following R code obtains the mean duration of the game, in turns: # total.capital is a constant, an arbitrary positive integer # initial.capital is a constant, an arbitrary positive integer between, and not including # 0 and total.capital # p is the probability of winning 1$ on each turn # 1-p is the probability of loosing 1$ # N

Hi, from example(capitalize) of the Hmisc package (v 0.8.3) you get: > capitalize(c("Hello", "bob", "daN")) [1] "Hello" "Bob" "daN" Is that "daN" correct? If so, then this behavior that only *all lowercase strings*, which the code indicates, will be capitalized is not documented. > Hmisc::capitalize function

I’d like to discuss revising the LLVM coding conventions to change the naming of variables to start with a lowercase letter. This should not be a discussion on the pain of such a transition, or how to get from here to there, but rather, if there is a better place to be. My arguments for the change are: 1. No other popular C++ coding style uses capitalized variable names. For instance here

Hi there, Being a relatively happy Rails user I suddenly noticed that string#capitalize and friends do not play well with international characters well. Sample console session: $ ./script/console Loading development environment (Rails 2.2.3) >> $KCODE => "UTF8" >> "яблоко".capitalize => "яблоко" Where "Яблоко" was expected (Russian word

Dear R users I get different F-statistic results for a "within" model, when using "time" or "twoways" effects in plm() [1] and when manually specifying the time control dummies [2]. [1] vignette("plm") [2] http://cran.r-project.org/doc/contrib/Farnsworth-EconometricsInR.pdf Two examples below: library("AER") data("Grunfeld", package =

8. You have join to this mail a text file with the few characters that don't = match. On Swat, it's easier. = I use Swat from my win98 box. When I write a share comment with some chara= cters, there are not translated properly inside smb.conf file. = When I read my smb.conf file, I noticed that for example a cp1252 characte= r like (0xC1) has been changed onto an ISO8859-15 character

Taking the Grunfeld data, which is built-in in R, for example, (1)How can I construct a dataset (or dataframe) that consists of the data of all firms in 1951? (2)How can I calculate the average capital in each form over the period 1951-1954? What I can imagine is to categorize the data by firm, and then select the data between 1951 and 1954 for each firm, but how can I do it? Thanks, Miao

Dear R world, Do you know about a function that would capitalize in the correct manner first and family names? I found in the cwhmisc only the CapLeading function, but it just does not do the job, taking care only to capitalize the first letter of a word. I am looking for a function that would recognize " |'|Mc|-" and capitalize the first letter following these characters. An

Hi there guys. I'm new to the list. I have googled and yahooed, and been to several other mailing list to see if I can find help there. But with no luck. I'm trying to setup a share for several departments for our company. So when I installed RedHat 9.0 I created a 30Gb partition. Please bare with me as I explain what I would like to do. I have a directory drwxrwx---- 5 root

Hi, im new to the list, so bear with me if this was discussed earlier! For historical issues we need to maintain usernames in all capitals ie. CD our test environment is running centos 3.4 - our live environment is on redhat 8.0 the useradd program won't allow me to create a new user with capitals, and usermod wont change a lower case user name to upper case! What is my options now ? - do i have to hack the package or is there...

Hello, I am wordering how Samba treats the user/account name of a logged in W95 and/or W9x Client? I have the following problem: We want to switch our file- and printer services from netware to samba 2.2.5. The client need also to connect to a netwarebased oracle db 7.x. When I log in to Samba as PDC with capital letters in the username box I am able to use the Software System which is based

I have a txt file (attached) that defines equivalents among characters in latin1 (or iso-8859-1), numeric &#xxx; codes, HTML entities and latex equivalents. A portion of the file is shown inline below, but may not be rendered well in this email. I'd like to read this into R to use as a character translation table, but am stuck on two things: - The 5 fields in the file are

What is the easiest way to change within vector of strings each letter after a space into a capital letter? E.g.: c( "this is an element of the vector of strings", "second element" ) becomes: c( "This Is An Element Of The Vector Of Strings", "Second Element" ) My reason to try to do this is to get more readable abbreviations. (A suggestion would be to

The users will enter students names on forms. How do I intercept the first and last names and have them stored capitalized when the user inputs them in lower case? Do I mess with the form html, skipping form_for helpers and using conditional clauses in the view? Do I need to separate out the individual attribute and update it separately in the controller actions that save/updates the

According to the documentation<http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveSupport/Inflector.html#method-i-humanize> of ActiveSupport::Inflector: *humanize*(lower_case_and_underscored_word) Capitalizes the first word and turns underscores into spaces and strips a trailing “_id”, if any. * Example: humanize("employee_salary") # => "Employee salary"* I would

...ember/g; we're not using Objective-C ;-)] Leading _ is incompatible with leading capital (it gives you a reserved identifier and thus undefined behavior). I have seen this cause inscrutable compilation failures in practice. (With Chandler's approach for initialisms we may still get leading capitals.) Trailing _ is better, but still suffers from bugs where the wrong entity is used: class A { bool m_; A(bool m) : m_(m_) {} // oops, but we diagnose }; Capitalizing member names has the same problems as capitalizing local variable names: struct MyRAIIThing { Sema &Sema; // =( }; ----...

Hello, I have a strange problem with samba 3.0.1 on suse 8.1, when I mount an NT shared directory the accented capitals letters are not recognised.
