Hi R user! What is the fastest way to export a large matrix or vector to a MySQL database? The use of data.frame() and dbWriteTable() makes the process slow, so is there any <direct> alternative? Regards Meinhard Ploner

Hi! I have R 1.9.1, Mac OS X 10.3.5, GNU Emacs 21.2.1 and ESS 5.2.3. I installed today the ESS by not changing ess-site.el, but creating .emacs in $home with the single line: $ cat ~/.emacs (load "/usr/local/lib/ess-5.2.3/lisp/ess-site") If I start now emacs and then R (with M-x R) then I get: > options(STERM='iESS', editor='emacsclient') but using fix() oder

I have a graphic image in a file (say a *.jpeg or *.png file) and want to put it into a plot. I have segmented the plot area by means of the layout function and successfully plotted my data in the appropriate segments. I cannot find how to put my graphic image onto the same plot. Searching the archives has shed little light on my challenge. Many thanks in anticipation. Gordon > version

Hello! Maybe "frame" is not the right term in this context. I explain my problem by example code: fun2 <- function(objName, add) { ## the object "objName" should be increased by "add", ## but the evaluation should be done in the calling function (here: fun1) ## ...... what's the right code?? } fun1 <- function() { x <- 1 fun2("x",

It seems that R 1.3.1 is not very stable for Mac OS X. I installed it some days ago and had about 10-20 crashes in the last days. In S-Plus I never had these problems (or seldom), but I worked on Win NT. Who can help?

It's possible to overlap an external image (jpg or pdf) with a plot generated with R? Specifying the image as the background of the plot might not be possible... any idea? thanks Meinhard Ploner

It's possible to create a package with functions and data, from which the use library(pkg-name) "attaches" not only the functions, but also the data? I want avoid to use data(dataset, package="name") because this makes a global copy of the data-set ... Anyone could help me? Meinhard

Hello! What is wrong on my system? I have downloaded today R 1.9.1 on my PC with Windows. plot.table isn't available in package <base> and neither in package <graphics> (as suggested after ?plot.table). Kind regards Meinhard Ploner [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

hi! I tried to build a very simple package with NAMESPACE file, such that datasets are loaded only dynamically. > a2 <- function(x=a1) x+4 > a1 <- 1:10 > package.skeleton("aaa", list=c("a1", "a2")) Then I modified the help files and added the file NAMESPACE with these 2 lines: useDynLib(aaa) export(a1, a2) Then "R CMD BUILD aaa" works

Hi! Since August I am using emacs on my Macintosh to edit the R objects. I have installed R 1.9.1, Mac OS X 10.3.5 and GNU Emacs 21.2.1. However there are some issues I haven't resolved: a) switch the caps lock key to the meta key (and when this is not possible, switch the alt/option key to the meta). The switch should work only within emacs! b) having different colors for the code,

i was searching for the source of bca.ci, a function of the package boot. I tried require(boot, keep.source=TRUE) but again the source was not viewable. How should i do?

I am new on R, so I have a maybe naive question: if I have many large data.frames and I use only one or two per session, what's the best way? If all are stored in the actual .Rdata, the system gets slow. On the other hand, I wouldn't like to make a separate package for the data. Should I save it with save() and then remove it with rm() ? Could I reload it then? Thanks for suggestions
