search for: melvin

If one specifies new options in a package, using the options() function, where does/should one document these new options? E.g. suppose that I put the line options(melvin=42) in a file zzz.R in the R directory of the package source, where the package contains functions foo(), bar(), clyde(), and irving() which all query options("melvin") and take some action based on the value of ``melvin''. The user can of course change the value of ``melvin'...

This may be an FAQ, but a (perfunctory) search failed to turn it up. Suppose I have a function foo(...){<something>} and I want to obtain, inside foo, the names of items comprising the ``...''. E.g. if I call foo(melvin,clyde,irving) I want to be able to loop through the ``...'' and successively obtain the text strings "melvin", "clyde", and "irving". Is there any way to do this? I know that if I had a function foo(x,y,z){<something>}, and I called foo(melvin,clyde,ir...

...bar(y,foo) so that in the code of bar() I could have assignments like clyde <- get("f1",envir=environment(foo)) So rather than assigning f1, ..., fk in the body of foo, I would like to assign them in the environment of foo. I want to do something like environment(foo) <- melvin where melvin contains f1, ..., fk. But how do I create ``melvin'' so that it is acceptable to the foregoing assignment? One way I ***could*** go about it would be to create melvin as a list: melvin <- list(f1=f1,f2=f2,etc.) Then I could do attach(melvin) environment(foo) <...

...d be possible (modulo a number of caveats) to read an excel (yuck!) file into R using RODBC. I have obtained and installed ODBC and the RODBC package, but cannot for the life of me figure out how to go about it. Can anyone give me a simple recipe? I have an excel file on cdrom, say: /mnt/cdrom/melvin.xls I have started R and loaded the RODBC package. I want to create a data frame ``melvin'' by reading in /mnt/cdrom/melvin.xls. What (in monosyllables --- step by step) do I do next? cheers, Rolf Turner rolf at math.unb.ca

I've just installed version 1.4.0 of R, and am experiencing a puzzling phenomenon with the library() function. I have .lib.loc set as follows: > .lib.loc [1] "/usr/local/lib/R/library" "/home/faculty/rolf/Rlib" If I invoke > library(melvin) I get the error message Error in library(melvin) : There is no package called `melvin' but if I invoke > library(melvin,lib.loc="/home/faculty/rolf/Rlib") the package ``melvin'' gets loaded with no problems. What gives? Is the .lib.loc object not being used in 1....

Dear R list members I am trying to improve a boxplot with 2 data sets. I run somethinkg like boxplot(data1 ~ month, add=F, col = "red", ...) boxplot(data2 ~ month, add=T, col = "blue", ...) The problem is that the data from February are missing for data2, so R think that must take little more space between the data classes in data 2 and then both data gropus are not aligned.

I've built R functions to ``effect'' a particular distribution, and would like to find out if that distribution is already ``known'' by an existing name. (I.e. suppose it were called the ``Melvin'' distribution --- I've built dmelvin, pmelvin, qmelvin, and rmelvin as it were, but I need a real name to substitute for melvin.) The distribution is really just a toy --- but it provides a nice (and ``non-obviouse'') example of a two parameter distribution where both the mome...

Dear forum, I would like to use the kernel2d or spkernel2d in the Splancs-package, but it does not recognize my polygon data. "Error in kernel2d(as.points(ptsbin), polygonprov, h0 = 2, nx = 100, : " is the error message. Invalid poly argument The data are defined as follows: polgonprov<-list(x=polyprov$X, y=polyprov$Y) with X and Y coordinates in the Lambert1972

Any useful information that I've left out is an oversight on my part, so just ask if additional info is needed. Any hints on my next steps would be appreciated.
