Printing data as a narrative or form letter rather than as a table
How would one print the information in a table without having to view it as a table? I have a dataframe with about 30 columns and 50 rows. About 7 rows contain human subjects where something is just not right and I need to manually work out what is going on with them and maybe even call them to ensure we have the data correct. It is really inconvenient to view the 7 patients in a table. Instead, I

Ferret on Windows?
...up, with weird "Invalid char" errors. I have pasted the page below. If I comment out the require ferret, the page loads. Of course, act_as_ferret does blow up. My unit tests do work fine however! I can query my model using the ferret calls. Any recommendations?

Reusing story snippets
I find myself doing this: Scenario "logged in user visiting the home page" do Given "A logged in user" do a_logged_in_user end When "..." Then "..." end The a_logged_in_user method is a helper method in helper.rb which sets up the state so that the user can browse the website. Later in the story of course, I can just do ''Given

plot the number of replicates at the same point
...x y 1 1 1 1 1 2 1 3 1 3 1 4 ...... In the plot that produced, I don't want to show the usual circles or points. Instead, I want to show the number of replicates at that point. e.g. at the position of (1,1), there are 2 obsevations, so a number '2' will be displayed in the plot. Is my narrative clear? Is there a way to make the plot in R?

Reappearing emails
...ubmit this to the IMAP gods to see if anyone had heard of this and/or if there is some newer version that might resolve the problem. This particular customer contacted his email vendor and asked them to analyze the problem. The actual log data is gigantic, so I just pasted in the vendor's narrative below in case it helps. Otherwise, as I said, I will capture a similar interaction at the wire level and follow up here. Vendor's narrative: You had 8 messages in the Inbox, and moved two to Trash. The server notified the app on the push connection (for Inbox) that there are now 6 messages...

Has many through join table issues
I''m trying to wrap my caffeine soaked brain around has_many :through following along at: http://rails.techno-weenie.net/tip/2005/12/23/teaching_your_blog_model_new_tricks_with_has_many_through I think my models are a little more complex than what fits this narrative. I have a directory of members, each member can belong to multiple categories. The category table references itself to build a category list, joined with parent_id. Top level categories will not have members, only subcategories. ie. Finance is top level (no member associated). Accountants, f...

RailsExampleGroup
So I have a describe which is a subclass of RailsExampleGroup. I inserted some data into my database, and reconnect! my connection. Before reconnect, finding the data I just created is fine. The data cannot be found, after reconnection, the data is gone. It''s not in the database. It looks to me the data is not actually inserted into the DB at all, just somehow buffered somewhere. Would

Wine and Baldur's Gate
Well, Now that I've made it through the actual install, I figured I'ld take Baldur's Gate for a spin. The main screeen, where you select to play the game, change the configuration, etc, comes up fine. There's a slight pause after clicking 'Play' while BGMain.exe starts and X is set yo 640x480 (I'm guessing this has something to do with DETACH_PROCESS?), but

Rspec not loading fixtures
I am taking over a code base and am trying to run the tests. I am somewhat new to RSpec so this might be a trivial problem. Basically I can tell that the fixtures are not getting loaded. All 100 tests fail with a similar error. But I don''t know why. Below is the code, with my narrative with *** before it... Can you see anything or give me a clue where to look. So far I am coming up empty... Thanks! Pito Salas **** In spec_helper.rb, which I know is running, I see: Spec::Runner.configure do |config| config.global_fixtures = :all end **** One of the tests in spec/controllers...

Iterative regression through a series
...oefficients and standard errors it generates to two vectors, say TIME.coef and TIME.SE. I'm not sure if lapply() can be bent to my will, or if a for loop would be too inefficient, or what.  I'm not new to R, but I'm fairly new to this kind of programming. This is a bungled mess of a narrative, and I apologize.  Please feel free to use TIME=1:100 and PRICE=rnorm(100,8,2). Here's an attempt, which has failed for reasons I can only imagine.  Any help getting this to work would be greatly appreciated.  Any help doing this without loops would be even better. > Time=1:100 > Pr...

Creating a vignette which depends on a non-distributable file
...... Also very often while it might make sense to analyse an entire data set as part of a typical work flow, for illustrative purposes a much smaller subset or simulated data might be relevant; again a strategy would be to illustrate the problematic steps with simulated data, and then resume the narrative with the analyzed full data. A secondary consideration may be that if your package _requires_ MSigDB to function, then it can't be automatically tested by repository build machines -- you'll want to have unit tests or other approaches to ensure that 'bit rot' does not set in wi...
