...*** 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 the scores within the i-th district. I then have trouble figuring out how to put these results into a column of the data frame in the proper order. Is there a slick-quick-sexy way of doing this (without resorting to looping)? Am I missing something obvious? Thanks for any help bestowed. cheers, Rolf Turner rolf at math.unb.ca

I am wondering what the list's opinion is on the Apple to Intel switch. This is going to put a slick desktop that runs on top of BSD directly into the mainstream.

...sk. Saw the Asterisk TAPI wiki page and also ran across this: http://www.fonality.com/pop.cgi?page=pop_pbxtray.tt (PBXtray) It looks like Fonality has managed to make an app that does screen pops and allows click to dial. Has anyone else been able to get this all to work successfully? Looks pretty slick.

...late an additional repo/cache that mock would look at when building the second so I could queue both? Although I haven't tried, I presume I could drop the output from the first build into a dir, createrepo it and add that into the config file then build the next package but that's not very slick :) Thanks! jlc

...se into a single dataframe D, notionally D <- "d1 on the left, d2 on the right" which contains all the columns except that duplicates only occur once (and, preferably, in the order of occurrence on d1 -- i.e. remove them from d2 if already dound in d1).

Today, I was looking for an elegant (and efficient) way to get a named (atomic) vector by selecting one column of a data frame. Of course, the vector names must be the rownames of the data frame. Ok, here is the quiz, I know one quite "cute"/"slick" answer, but was wondering if there are obvious better ones, and also if this should not become more idiomatic (hence "R-devel"): Consider this toy example, where the dataframe already has only one column : > nv <- c(a=1, d=17, e=101); nv a d e 1 17 101 > df &l...

I just finished posting an article on creating a lightweight but very functional web grid that does a slick job of live updating whatever content you put in. Much like Rails itself, I pulled the code from an active project effort, in the hopes that others would find it useful. http://unspace.ca/discover/datagrid Or, for the impatient, give the demo a shot: http://unspace.ca/datagrid Feedback welcome...

Suppose I have a square matrix P P <- matrix(c(.3,.7, .7, .3), ncol=2) I know that > P * P Returns the element by element product, whereas > P%*%P Returns the matrix product. Now, P^2 also returns the element by element product. But, is there a slick way to write P %*% P %*% P Obviously, P^3 does not return the result I expect.

Each RDS is 40 MBs. What's a slick code to compare them row by row, IDing row numbers with mismatches? Thanks in advance. //

...mn numbers and thereby retrieve the corresponding elements? E.g., providing the 2 vectors c(1,2,3) and c(1,3,1) should return the matrix values c(1,8,3). I ran a couple of times into this problem and always used some awkward transformations to get around it. But as I know R, there is probably some slick way to do this. Thanks!!! Werner

Hello, Does anyone know of a "slick" way to get R to convert a string which is all upper case to a string where the first letter in each word is upper case and all others are lower case? I suspect the solution is to begin by parsing the string, convert the appropriate letters to upper and lower case using "toupper"...

I sometimes buy myself a default value for a hash using something like this: h = Hash.new{|h,k| h[k] = ""}. I can now pass ''h'' any key and if a value has not yet been associated with that key I receive an empty string. I would love to do something similar in my partials so that I wouldn''t have to worry about passing in every variable that is referenced.

...lly CGI files and the developers' routine is: while (web page not quite right) { 1. Edit file 2. Save 3. Click Reload on web browser 4. Check results } They go around that loop many times during a typical development run. However, for some staff who are using the editor Visual Slick Edit, we have a problem at Step 3. The web server returns a "500 Internal Server Error" message. However, if one waits approximately 10-15 seconds and clicks Reload again, the web page loads as expected. At the same time as the '500 Internal Server Error' is sent to the browser...

Friends- I am almost finished with a custom live cd called Rubuntu ;-) This is an ubuntu live cd variant that comes preloaded with ruby and rails developers in mind. I already have it working with all the basics but I was wondering what extras people would like to see on this distro. What editors with what configurations? What other tools do people really like for rails development on a

...Ds doing an average of ten events each, I'd run this trimming procedure and end up with a data frame containing 100 rows (one for each ID), where each row record that ID's first event. I can think of slow, clumsy, for-loop ways to trim the data frame, but I'm hopeful that there is some slick "R" way to do it that someone here can help me find. But so deep is my ignorance that I can't even come up with useful search terms to use on Rseek.org (I investigated "merge" but had no luck there). Grateful for any ideas/tips/pointers, Dylan [[alternative HTML version...

...d the MATLAB convention to some degree). Or, looping from 0 -> 1 by 0.01? I've dug through what [R] documentation I have, and all I can find is the somewhat obtuse. For example, I can use x <- seq(0,1, by=.01) But not for(x in (0,1,by=0.01)) { print(x) } What about things that are slickly handled in C++, like for (node=start; value<threshold && node!=end; node=node->next) { ... } OK - I'm stumped (and happy to humiliate myself with what has surely got to be trivial). I'm happy with a simple basic counter at this point.

I''m checking out backgroundrb for a calculation process I estimate will take 2-3 minutes and be ran on-demand only via Rails. Very easy and slick. But I have a question. The connections never close, if I do a netstat they just keep piling up. Do I need to do some housekeeping somewhere? I noticed the @ connection.close statements are commented out in favor of a # FIXME type deal. Even if I store read_from_bdrb in an intermediate variab...
