OK, so the consensus is (1) One cannot make strptime accept ISO8601-compliant zone designators (2) The lubridate package can (3) Or one can hack away with regex. Lubridate it is, then. But I do regard strptime's inability to process ISO8601-compliant zone designators as a bug. On Mon, 6 Nov 20...

A student is trying to cluster some data. Tree-building things seem to be pretty hopeless (we've tried most of the ones in R, I think). Multi-dimensional scaling produces somewhat tantalising results: things do clump together somewhat, but the clusters overlap a lot. I was wondering if these was an artefact of squee...

What's the reommended way, in R, to determine the strength of association between a discrete variable and a continuous variable? Yes, I have read the manuals, trawled the archives, &c.

I have some data that includes timestamps like this: 2017-02-28T13:35:00+03:00 The documentation for strptime says that %z expects an offset like 0300. I don't see any way in the documentation to get it to accept +hh:mm with a colon separator, and everything I tried gave me NA as the answer. Section 4....

"It would be really really helpful to have a clearer idea of what you are trying to do." Amen! But in R, "constructing" objects by extending them piece by piece is generally very inefficient (e.g. https://r-craft.org/growing-objects-and-loop-memory-pre-allocation/), although someti...

I have found XLispStat's spinning plots illuminating. I'd like to do the same thing in R. A dozen or so probes with help, help.search, apropos haven't turned up anything, and I've even resorted to grepping through the entire R source distribution looking for 'spin.*plot', to no avail....

While reading through some of the R source code, I have come across forms such as m$... m$... <- e and I wondered what they meant. ?"$" mentions x$name, but not $... All it says is The operators `$' and `$<-' do not evaluate their second argument. It is translated to a st...

I'm now inclined to go with 'search for "convert GRIB to CSV". https://confluence.ecmwf.int/display/CKB/How+to+convert+GRIB+to+CSV is the first line. I know that's not an R solution, but using software specifically developed for encoding, decoding, extracting, &c GRIB file by the Eu...

There is also the package solrad that might do some of this. It is more intended for calculating solar radiation, which is probably not what you want, but may do other things you may find helpful. > On Jan 30, 2024, at 5:44?AM, Enrico Schumann <es at enricoschumann.net> wrote: > > On Tue, 30 Ja...

Richard, Many thanks for your email. I had attached the grib file to the original email to R help team but it seems you did not receive it. Unfortunately, I do not know how to reduce the volume or extract some of the grib file data to send it for you. The file has the volume of 6 Megabyte. I can send it by email. The file...

The matrix equivalent of x <- ... v <- ... x[length(x)+1] <- v is m <- ... r <- ... m <- rbind(m, r) or m <- ... k <- ... m <- cbind(m, c) A vector or matrix so constructed never has "holes" in it. It's better to think of CONSTRUCTING vectors and matrices rather...
