search for: sexiness

Admit it, Rolf. Haven't you wondered if S, in a more private way, is sexier than R? OK, kidding aside, we have talked this to death. Just FYI, the conversation was stimulating for some of us and I have continued on my own and located functions I see as useful in the stringi and stringr packages to make my silly version ever less silly!

"Sexy code" may get a job done and demonstrate the code's knowledge of a programming language, but it often does this at the expense of clear, easy to document (i.e. annotate what the code does), easy to read, and easy to understand code. I fear that this is what this thread has developed "sexy" but not easily understandable code. While I send kudos to all of you, remember

Rold, We need to be clear on what makes an answer sexy! LOL! I decided it was sexy to do it in a way that nobody (normal) would and had not suggested yet. Here is an original version I will explain in a minute. Or, maybe best a bit before. Hee is the unformatted result whicvh is a tad hard to read but will be made readable soon: x <- list(`1` = c(7, 13, 1, 4, 10), `2` = c(2, 5,

Suppose I have a data frame with two columns ``district'' and ``score'' --- score is numeric; district may be considered categorical. I wish to append to this data frame a third column whose entries are the ranks of ``score'' ***within*** district. I've tried fiddling about with tapply() and by() but the result is a list whose i-th component consists of the ranks of

However, please note that I'm sure Rolf's was challenged / question was ment to work correctly for all factors `f` with levels

Ok, I give up: what's that supposed to look like? I tried to replace makeNstr with paste(rep(..)) but got garbage. (my own fault: I still like 10.3.9, so can't install a new enough version of R to install the Hmisc package) Carl

Sorry to append, but I just realised that of course ``` x |> ? pmap(c) |> ? reduce(c) |> ? unname() ``` also works and is a general solution in case your list has more than three elements. Here, we map in parallel over all elements of the list, always combining the current set of elements into a vector, and then reduce the resulting list into a vector by combining the elements

I have (toy example): x <- list(`1` = c(7, 13, 1, 4, 10), `2` = c(2, 5, 14, 8, 11), `3` = c(6, 9, 15, 12, 3)) and f <- factor(rep(1:3,5)) I want to create a vector v of length 15 such that the entries of v, corresponding to level l of f are the entries of x[[l]]. I.e. I want v to equal c(7, 2, 6, 13, 5, 9, 1, 14, 15, 4, 8, 12, 10, 11, 3) I can create v

Hi Rolf, this topic is probably already saturated, but here is a tidyverse solution: ``` library(purrr) x <- list( ? `1` = c(7, 13, 1, 4, 10), ? `2` = c(2, 5,? 14, 8, 11), ? `3` = c(6, 9, 15, 12, 3) ) x |> ? pmap(~ c(..1, ..2, ..3)) |> ? reduce(c) #> [1]? 7? 2? 6 13? 5? 9? 1 14 15? 4? 8 12 10 11? 3 ``` Here, we map over the elements of the list in parallel (hence pmap),

Hello Rails lovers! I have a few general discussions that I have yet to find terribly active. Perhaps all of the people busy on this front are...uh...busy on this front. So! Ajax-only apps. No degration. Yes! Forget about degradation for a moment. Not willing to? Ok, well...this question is for those who are willing... Imagine developing an app that is one page - all actions render partials

I have begun to use the reference function feature of sexy migrations, and I have noticed that the fixtures are actually not playing nice with this new feature. If I create a model, whose table has this line: t.reference :user the fixure will look like one: user: when it should be user_id, now, it may be possible (I don''t know, to define an object in the fixtures now, but when I run

I sent this earlier under with the subject "artificial sugar causes cancer" and I think some spam filters ate it.

Hey guys, Looking through my book and the web and I am not having any success returning data from a search. I need to have awk search for a string and print the first field which is no problem but now its returning two options as the input data has changed. The change is reliable, I only want the first field if it ends in a regex that I have, and I only want what that regex matches to be printed.

I have installed asterisk on numerous servers. Every install was done on Fedora and (White box Linux). I now have zap channels in one of the boxes (T-1). No matter what type of channel I call on (sip or zap) I get some really strange artifacts in the sound, almost like a skip in the playback. It seems to always be in about the same place in the recording. Usually in the beginning of playback. For
