(R 1.9.1; Windows 2000;) I'm just comparing ease of use, speed, etc for methods of transferring data frames in the Excel, MySQL, R triangle. It turns out that going from Excel to R (when doing this carefully). Using the clipboard is actually quite fast and efficient (2 seconds for transferring 120 000 cells on a common desktop computer as compared to much longer for going the RODBC route,

This might be easy (but I didn't find an answer in the archives). I'm trying to make nice looking images (using image()). To make them look nice (not jagged), it usually takes me at least 100x100 points. This can be slow for frequent redraws. Is there a smarter (less point intensive) way? I was thinking in terms of hexabins, for example, which for much less jagged looking regions,

(R.1.9.1; win2000) Since it's about the tenth time I had to write an "if" around this to catch the error ... Let's look at the line myfit<-lm(res~groupvar,data=Data) Here res is of numeric type and groupvar is a factor. On first sight, it would be logical that if groupvar had only one (single) level we would get: Error in "contrasts<-"(`*tmp*`, value =

Hi to all who suffer from rterm not shutting down in xemacs/ESS on windows NT or 2000. Also hi to those who could eventually help. Here is some more information which could help and some ENCOURAGEMENT to contribute to a solution. 1. It may be an xemacs problem but it is more likely an interaction between rterm/comint/and xemacs. In fact, the problem started occurring around version R 1.6.0. I

There is a little problem in handling logicals in RMySQL: # here is the MySQL connection > con <MySQLConnection:(1816,0)> # here is the data frame > print(a<-data.frame(x=c(TRUE,FALSE),y=c(FALSE,TRUE))) x y 1 TRUE FALSE 2 FALSE TRUE # as promised, the two data frame columns are identified as logicals and # the field types are set to tinyint > field.types <-

Maybe someone out there has done this already .... (which would save me some time): For a repetitive chemometric task I need to retrieve spectra from a Nicolet IR acquisition system into R and analyze them there. The raw spectra are in files ending in the extension .spa. I can use the Omnic software to export them to .csv, but I would like to skip this step since it is manual. Has anyone of you

Hi all, I''m still not quite happy with the NA and factor handling of lm and predict.lm in R1.6.1 (forcing me to use my not very skillfully crafted patches). Here is the problem 1: >
