What do you prefer/recommend for double-banger function names: 1 scale.colour 2 scale_colour 3 scaleColour 1 is more R-like, but conflicts with S3. 2 is a modern version of number 1, but not many packages use it. Number 3 is more java-like. (I like number 2 best) Any suggestions? Thanks, Hadley

Hi all, all.equal is generally very useful when you want to find the differences between two objects. It breaks down however, when you have two long strings to compare: > all.equal(a, b) [1] "1 string mismatch" Does any one know of any good text diffing tools implemented in R?

Hi all, Is there a better to way to subset the ROWs (in the sense of NROW) of an vector, matrix, data frame or array than this? subset_ROW <- function(x, i) { nd <- length(dim(x)) if (nd <= 1L) { x[i] } else { dims <- rep(list(quote(expr = )), nd - 1L) do.call(`[`, c(list(quote(x), quote(i)), dims, list(drop = FALSE))) } } subset_ROW(1:10, 4:6) #> [1] 4 5 6

Hi all, Would someone mind pointing to me to the inspiration for the use of the L suffix to mean "integer"? This is obviously hard to google for, and the R language definition (https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/R-lang.html#Constants) is silent. Hadley -- http://hadley.nz

The San Francisco Bay Area useR Group is very excited to host Hadley Wickham on Sep 17 for our Fall kickoff meeting. Details at http://www.meetup.com/R-Users/calendar/10446894/ This year we are moving our regular meeting monthly meeting to the 2nd Tuesday of each month. Also, we hope to rotate the venue around the Bay Area. Hadley's presentation will be on the Cal Berk...

Is it conceivable that Julia could be ported to use R syntax in a way that would allow the vastly larger numbers of R programmers to seamlessly switch? Or equivalently, could an iteration of R itself do this?

I suspect this will have suboptimal performance since the TRUEs will get recycled.

a <- data.frame(b = rep(1:5, each=2), c=factor(rep("a",10), levels=c("a","b"))) levels(subset(a, b=1, drop=T)$c) # [1] "a" "b" Is this a bug? Thanks,, Hadley

This is admittedly a contrived example, but... data(housing, package ="MASS") x <- housing$Type + housing$Sat match(x, unique(x)) Hadley -- http://had.co.nz/

"[.ggobiDataset" <- function(x, ..., drop=FALSE) { x <- as.data.frame(x) NextMethod("[", x) } "[[.ggobiDataset" <- function(x, ..., drop=FALSE) { x <- as.data.frame(x) NextMethod("[[", x) } "$.ggobiDataset" <- function(x, ..., drop=FALSE) { x <- as.data.frame(x) NextMethod("$", x) } > class(x) [1]

We're pleased to announce a one day course covering static and dynamic graphics using R, ggplot and GGobi. The course will be held just before the JSM, on Saturday, 28 July 2007, in Salt Lake City. The course will be presented by Dianne Cook and Hadley Wickham. In the course you will learn: * How to build presentation quality static graphics using the R package, ggplot. We will cover plot creation and modification, and discuss the grammar which underlies the package. * How to explore your data with direct manipulation/dynamic graphics using GGobi and...

Hi all, Is there any chance that readRDS and saveRDS might one day become read.rds and write.rds? That would make them more consistent with the other reading and writing functions.
