foreach (or virtually anything you might use for concurrent programming) only really makes sense if the work the "clients" are doing is substantial enough to overwhelm the communication overhead. And there are many ways to accomplish the same task more or less efficiently (for example, doing blocks of tasks in chunks rather than passing each one as an individual job). But more to the

Hello everyone, I have a plot and I want to but a (formatted) box containing text and numbers, say: Mean: 0.1 St.Deviation: 1.1 Skewness: 1.1 Kurtosis: 0.5 I know there is a way to do this, there is a function in some library, but it's been years since I used this function, and I do not remember where I found it. Could anyone help out? Thank you in advance! Sergey -- Kniven sk?rpes bara

Hello, everyone I wonder if there is in R somewhere a function similar to cumsum(). The function calculates a statistic (say mean or standard deviation) buy adding consequtively one more data point. So, say I have a timeseries of 100 observations. I start by calculating mean of first 30 observations Then I add one observation and calculate mean of 31 observations Then I add one more observation

Hello, If I want to see how, say, apply function is written, how would I be able to do that? Just typing "apply" at the prompt does not work. Thank you for help! Sergey

Dear members of R forum, Say I have a list: L <- list(1:3, 1:3, 1:3) that I want to turn into a matrix. I wonder why if I do: do.call(cbind, L) I get the matrix I want, but if I do cbind(L) I get something different from what I want. Why is that? How does do.call() actually work? I've read in do.call() help file this sentence: "The behavior of some functions, such as

Hello everyone, I have versions 2.7.2 and 2.10.1 installed on a machine that has no access to internet. In 2.7.2 I can use ? to get help on functions, which in 2.10.1 that does not work, all I see is "starting httpd help server...done" and then nothing. Have I downloaded 2.10.1 incorrectly (=forgot to tick some box for local help file repository) or is the internet help now the

Hello, everyone I wonder if it is possible to PHYSICALLY open an Excel file from R. The reason I ask is, I produce regularly an Excel file in R, and then I want to make it look good, so I have a VBA routine in another Excel file that works on the regular Excel file. This formatting file executes VBA code on open, so all I need to do is physically open it (no reading/writing at all). I wonder if

Hello, everybody Two questions: 1) I am new to maillists, and particularly to r-help maillist. Where specifically do I go online to see my question and answers to it??? If I use the searchable archives, or archives by Robert King, I see my question but not the answers, though I know that at least one persion posted the answer to r-help. Why do not I see the answers? 2) I need to produce 104

Hello, everyone I run Eclipse Ganymede and R 2.7.2 at work. I have one R script file where I open in memory a new xls file (using xlsReadWritePro), call other R scripts, which are in the same folder as the main R script, which get data from an existing xls file, process data, and output results in the xls file which is in memory. That is the idea. But I cannot make it work. First, I do not

Hello, everybody Say I have nm1 <- c(rep(1,10), rep(0,10)) then I can do: diff(nm1) to see where I have shift in value but what if I have nm2 <- c(rep("SPZ8", 10), rep("SPX9", 10)) how can I produce the same ouput as diff(nm1) does, that is zeros everywhere except for one place where SPZ8 changes to SPX9 (there should be 1 there)? What if I have a matrix of characters

I have the code for the bivariate Gaussian copula. It is written with for-loops, it works, but I wonder if there is a way to vectorize the function. I don't see how outer() can be used in this case, but maybe one can use mapply() or Vectorize() in some way? Could anyone help me, please? ## Density of Gauss Copula rho <- 0.5 #corr R <- rbind(c(1,rho),c(rho,1)) #vcov matrix id <-

Hello, I thought I understood filter() with the help from Prof. Grothendieck, but I guess I did not. For example, how does this work: filter(1:10, c(0.1, 0.5, 1, 0.5), "recursive", init=c(1,2,3,4)) Time Series: Start = 1 End = 10 Frequency = 1 [1] 7.10000 6.71000 9.22100 15.87710 21.45821 28.66037 41.08274 55.83522 74.51437 100.78197 If I understand it correctly, the time
