Dear r helpers; I'm interested in reading from and writing to large .xlsx files fairly regularly. (Why, the naysayers may ask - and the answer is basically colleagues and clients who prefer that format). I've tried out the XLConnect and xlsx libraries, but the java implementation they use just takes too much RAM for the files I'm working with. gdata leverages perl and works really

Hello everyone. Please, find the patch for Fedora 10 in the attachment(**). The distro-independent package will be put to kernel.org a bit later. I. Loading kernels from btrfs volumes Now you can load kernels and initrds from btrfs volumes composed of many devices. WARNING!!! Make sure that all components of your loading btrfs volume(*) are visible to grub. Otherwise,

You really do need ECC RAM, but for the naysayers: http://www.cs.toronto.edu/%7Ebianca/papers/sigmetrics09.pdf -- richard

x["V2"] is more efficient than using drop=FALSE, and perfectly normal syntax (data frames are lists of columns). I would ignore the naysayers, or put a comment in if you want to accelerate their uptake. As I understand it, one of the main reasons tibbles exist is because of drop=TRUE. List-slice (single-dimension) indexing works equally well with both standard and tibble types of data

At last, simple addition in R is now fast and easy!!! They said it could never be done, but they've never heard of Fortran. In order to add two numbers in R before you had to type: > 7 + 3 It was tedious to type and several hours could pass as you waited for your return value. So, imagine the excitement around your lab or office when you type in:

Hello, all. New to list. I hope this isn't an FAQ. I looked at the FAQs I could find, and didn't see it. I am doing contract work, and was requested to install FC2 on my machine (last October). Since doing that, I have tentatively concluded that the Fedora Core Project is more or less beta test, and not really suitable for development work. Please anyone correct me if I am wrong. So I

It was a little over two years ago that I saw Chris give a tech talk on LLVM at Google, and that was when I knew that there was a way that I could actually build the programming language that I'd been thinking about for so long. Well, the compiler is still not done, even though I've been plugging steadily away at it in my free time. However, a lot of progress has been made recently,
