I have been working with R extensively for several months. I switched from SAS and Matlab to R. My question is Can anyone explain the benefits and detractions of the 'Date' package verses the 'date' package and verses 'POSIX' dates. I have noticed several other packages use one or the other. Rmetrics seems to standardize on POSIX. I can only see differences in default formats, and the starting counting number be it 1 1 1...

Hi, I'm making a multipanel lattice densityplot figure with 2 factors (3 and 20 classes in each factor) with the following statement (the type="percent" is there to prevent plotting the actual points which detract from the figure - is there another way of doing this?): densityplot(~End-Begin | Type * Chromosome, data=Mon, layout=c(5,12), xlab="Element Length",type="percent", col="grey60", strip=strip.custom(style=3, bg="grey90", par.strip.text=list(cex=0.5))) Plottin...

...nk this is because the vfs module isn't able to seek on the pipe it opens to the flac process. I'm still trying to work out what the audiotron is doing in terms of seeks etc. Needless to say, this is quite annoying, I flac'd my cds for audio quality, and hearing the first second twice detracts quite a lot. :) So on to the question. I assume that it should be possible to write a samba VFS module that talks directly to libflac, rather than opening pipes etc to the cmdline process, and perhaps this would give me the ability to do more or less proper seeks.... does this sound possible?...

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi alls, i have to code a family of bar charts. After reading the doc, i cannot understand if it is possible to shade the bar colors and how. With shading i don't mean `density`. I mean something like that: http://www.advsofteng.com/images/colorcylinder_g.png Thanks and br - -- Federico -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6

Thank you Frederick for your comments: They are really well justified. > I think a "forum" or bulletin board system would be a detraction from the project and a distraction for the project leaders. Users have Stack Exchange - it's better than any forum we could create, and it > takes care of itself. An excellent idea would be to add in the R Project Webpage a link to RSeek, in order to put all together. This can be done i...

...from Darwin? Blasphemy! (3) The CMake open source community is too responsive! I file bugs and they fix them. This is unacceptable. Since they fix my bug reports I can't claim to my boss that I'm blocked on someone outside the company fixing something anymore. This is a really big problem detracting from my foam sword fighting practice time. (4) People expect it to work. With the autoconf build everyone kinda expected it to fall over in anything other than non-basic uses, and we were all ok with it. With CMake people expect things like 3-stage clang builds to just work out of the box. It i...

...panels? Why? Like/dislike? For some family and friends who I host a site for I found the setup of an additional server quite easy. A simple one page explanation of adding/deleting ftp, mail, or shell users, protecting directories, etc seems to suffice. I feel control panels are not needed and detract from being a knowledgeable admin. I can see if you are very new to running a centos server it would be helpful, but in the end run it seems to keep people from learning how to manage things. From a tech view, paid by the hour, I imagine those guys and gals love control panel issues... more mo...

...in every script I write. It is ultimately a matter of readability and syntactic sugar I guess. As an example, I work in the bioinformatics domain and write R scripts for pipelines with calls to various programs that require a lot of parameters to be set/varied. Seeing "paste" everywhere detracts from reading the code (in my opinion). This may not be a very strong argument, but to give a bit more objective reason, I claim its more readable/intuitive because other big languages have also picked up this convention (C++, java, javascript, python, etc.).

I don't object to compile time checking *as long as it doesn't severely detract from brevity*. At the same time, I do object to *preventing* runtime format strings. When we have C++14, we can make every member of StringRef constexpr, and at that point we will get compile time checking mostly "for free" without preventing runtime format strings. For example, given...

Dear R Developers, I am writing for doing the following suggestions: * Bugs: o Add in Bugzilla an Area in order to request membership for bug reporting, which shall itself include another area to introduce a little dissertation for justifying "Why someone would like to be a member of Bugzilla" for being able to report proper bugs, and avoid spam. o Now, new R serious

I am using a standard Centos 5.4 setup, with kernel-xen-2.6.18-164.15.1.el5 and xen 3.1.2-164.11.1.el5. I have just succeed in migrating an existing XP to this setup and installed successfully gplpv 0.11.0.213. On an other 2003 VM, I am using 0.10.0.134 since several months without any problem. Looking at http://www.meadowcourt.org/downloads/, it seams there is a lot of version in that

No I am not as can be conspicuously seen in what I wrote. Lamar your introduction of non-relevant matters can not detract from the essential point I made:- (1) removing sub-version numbers is wrong; and (2) changing the ISO naming structure from {major version}-{sub-version}-{build number}-{architecture}-{media}.iso is an illogical unwise change because anyone looking at {major version}-{sub-version} instantly kn...

In the absence of a web page, please can we list here the individual and organisational members who are *happy* for their membership to be known? This should not defocus from technical discussion, neither it is intended to detract from this list. However I do see people wondering about membership ? especially since the transfer of ZEVO ? so a publicly available shortlist will be useful.

...language and Tk is its GUI toolkit. In the context of R, the main attractions are - portability X/Win3.1/Win32/Mac - ease of implementation (people say...) - nice GUI model of Tk - possibility of making language bindings, i.e. extending R itself into a GUI programming language The potential detractions are (we hope that these will be less important or at least diminish with time, of course) - inefficiency? - the Tcl language, which many aren't too happy with I guess that a sensible prioritization/sequencing of the work could be (not that I'm trying to take control or anything...)...

First off BackgroundRb rocks!!!!. Top marks Ezra, it''s gone a long way to stopping us from doing a nasty curl/cron hack :) Okay so here''s what we''re using it for. We''re synchronising data from a Filemaker database, via web service equest, into a mysql database via a rails model called ''Syncer'' [How''s that for an oddball use case!].

Hi, I've been sorting out a network boot strategy for a mixed network (NT/2K based server, booting linux clients). As I'm running (not by choice) Windows based servers, I have been trying to use Philippe Jounins excellent tftp server. Have you had any reports of problems with the latest version of his server (v2.51 tftpd32j.zip) ? I was getting an error about the server not supporting
