Hi, I just encountered a problem in R that may easily be fixed: If one uses attach for a data.frame e.g. 10000 times and forgets detach, then R gets incredibly slow (less then 10% of the original speed). My system: platform powerpc-apple-darwin6.0 arch powerpc os darwin6.0 system powerpc, darwin6.0 status major 1 minor 6.1 year 2002

Dear all, I have found the following (for me) incomprehensible behaviour of ISOdate (POSIXct): > ISOdate(1900,6,16) [1] "1900-06-15 14:00:00 Westeurop?ische Sommerzeit" > ISOdate(1950,6,16) [1] "1950-06-16 14:00:00 Westeurop?ische Sommerzeit" Note that in the first case I get the 15th of June back, not the 16th as I would have expected! This happened under R-1.7.1 on

Greetings everyone, I am new at R. My questions is rather basic. Looking R manuals looks like there should be a way to read MS excel files into R. Could somebody tell me which library should I use for that? Thanks in advance Victor H.

Dear R users, I want to share my joy with you. Please see the following excellent introduction to R "Statistiques avec R " by Vincent Zoonekynd http://zoonek2.free.fr/UNIX/48_R/all.html In paticular, you can see a lot of fascinating graphics examples of R from which you can get many hints. Soryy if this is already well-known, but the CRAN search did not show nothing with the keyword

Hi all, I hope this isn't a naive newbie question again. Here you can see column 264 of a data frame containing data of the same interview in May and September.

For reasons which I'll spare you, I'm writing a program to analyse R source code. This has led me to probe some of the darker corners of R syntax to find out what is supposed to happen. Now, from reading the R documentation (and the New S book &c) I know perfectly well that f(a, b, etc) <- x is supposed to turn into a <- "f<-"(a, b, etc, value=x) Except,
