The program in question is a shareware, free download, paid to get extended functionality, EULA. With winetricks I have installed : VBRUN6 (required), OLE2,

Dear all I have written a function to perform a very simple but useful task which I do regularly. It is designed to show how many values are missing from each variable in a data.frame. In its current form it works but is slow because I have used several loops to achieve this simple task. Can anyone see a more efficient way to get the same results? Or is there existing function which does

Hi I've recently started using Emacs as my text editor for writing R script. I am looking for a feature which I have seen on the standard R text editor for Mac OS. In the Mac OS editor when you start typing a function, the possible arguments for that function appear at the bottom of the window. E.g. if you type "table( " before you finish typing you can see at the bottom of the

Courtesy follow up back to the unix-dev list (mainly for those like me who searched the archives) Thanks to the very swift response of Darren, a patched auth.c did the trick Patch enclosed below (apply after the p20) I'm guessing he'll either update p20 or issue p21 soon.

Hi I'd appreciate some help with plotting odds ratios. I want to rotate the labels on the x-axis by 45 degrees. The usual way of doing this, using text - e.g. text(1, par('usr')[3]-2.25..) - gives no result when the y-axis is a log scale. I guess this is because, as the par help says, for a logarithmic y-axis: y-limits will be 10 ^ par("usr")[3:4] Does anyone know
