Hello... I would like to use R for 'pipelining' data among several programs. I'm wondering how I can use R to call another program, feed that program a set of parameters, and retrieve the output. E.g., I have an executable that, when opened, prompts the user to enter a set of parameters. The program then executes & prompts the user for the name of an output file. I need to

Hi, I am trying to figure a way to allocate a string SEXP so that gc() won't ever collect it. Here is a little bit of a background. Suppose I want to write a .Call-callable function that upon each call returns the same value, say mkChar("foo"): SEXP getFoo() { return mkChar("foo"); } The above implementation doesn't take advantage of the fact that

I have used Sweave a lot the latest year, but never really used any long function calls. If I have code which look like this ------------------------------------------------------------- gof <- benthic.flux(ID="Gulf of Finland", meas.conc=conc, bw.conc=bw.conc, time=times,

Can anyone point out why this is not working? y<-read.table(pipe(' awk '{ n = $1; sub( ".*" $1 " " ,"") ; while ( n-- ) print }' temp.txt ')) [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello, This code works fine but is so fast I can't see anything but the last plot. for (i in nrow(X)){ plot(as.numeric(d[i,])) } I'd like to view a plot every 500 milliseconds, nrow(X) = 400. How?

Hi, for presentation purposes I would like to clear to whole console window (like in a UNIX terminal: 'clear'). Is there such a function? If not, I could image that is not too hard to write such a function. Cheers, Hans

The release schedule has now been set with a release date on April 18. The detailed procedure can be found at http://developer.r-project.org/ (it is not quite there yet, but will appear after a short propagation delay.) The main point for non-developers is that we start making alpha tarballs on March 21 and beta tarballs on April 4. Only very simple and/or critical bugs are fixed in the last

How precise is R numerically? For example I wrote the following function for calculating the volume of the ball inscribed in the unit cube in m dimensions. In order to see what happens in 40 dimensions, I created an output of 24 digits. But how many are precise? Thanks Josef Eschgf?ller Ferrara --------------------------------------- Vol = function (m) {if (m<=1) 1 else Vol(m-2)*pi/(m+m)}

I have been using the fork package on a cluster to spawn jobs. I have noticed that I end up with many "R defunct" (zombie) processes following the use of fork that do not die completely until I close down R. Initially, I thought it may be my code but I ran the example from the latest fork package (see code below) on R.2.3.1 and ended up with the same problem. The code from the

Can anyone please help me understand whats happening here? Thanks Tom getAmpRatio<-function(v_amps){ #calculates the amplitude ratios between the 3 largest amps and the rest bigamp<-0 map<-rep(TRUE,length(v_amps)) for(iLoc in 1:3){ bigamp<-bigamp+max(v_amps) map[which.max(v_amps)]<-FALSE v_amps<-v_amps[map]

Hi, I am using the following command to print to a file (I omitted the file details): cat( paste( paste(orientation, start, end, names,"\n"), paste(start, end, "exon\n"), sep="")) where "orientation" and "names" are character vectors and "start" and "end" are integer vectors. The problem is that R coerce the integer vectors

Hi Dumb question time again, for which I apologise. I have a variable that contains the following numerical text "04010". This is the name to access a list: > as.list(KEGGPATHID2NAME)$"04010" [1] "MAPK signaling pathway" Marvellous! Except I want to do that when "04010" is assigned to a variable called path and I can't figure out how to do it!

Dear all, Thanks to those 3 people who sent me answers to my question. Got the problem solved. Great! Now, another question of mine is: I would like to run an R script from the Linux prompt. Is there any way possible to do this? The reason is, the calculation that I'm doing takes a few hours, and I would like to automatize it. Or does it mean that I have to run source within the R

Hi All, I am looking for references on R as a programming language (apart form the standard R-lang.pdf and the other manuals), reference that would cover _in_depth_ things like loops, code optimisation, debugging tools etc... and is as up-to-date as possible. Can anyone suggest any book or other reference apart from the "green book" and the V&R "S-programming"? Cheers,

Please read this first: http://www.perceptualedge.com/articles/visual_business_intelligence/dual-scaled_axes.pdf It's a reasoned discussion of why it's a bad idea and proposes some alternative methods. Another good article is: K. W. Haemer. Double scales are dangerous. The American Statistician, 2(3):24?24, 1948. People have been advising dual-axis plots for (at least) 60 years! Hadley

Hello world, short question: is there a possibility to get a list of arguments of a function *with* variable/parameter types? formals() gives me the names of the parameters, but says nothing about the parameter type it expects (I know I can always use the help function). I would like somthing like $x: vector or data.frame... Thanks in advance... Georg -- Georg Hoermann, Fachabteilung

Dear All, I saved by mistake the environment I was working in after typing q(), and now I get the annoying message: [Previously saved workspace restored] I have already deleted all the objects in the environment, saving it as an empty environment, so it's just a matter of nitpicking I suppose. The message does not appear if I start R from any other place in the directory tree. I am
