Hi Everyone, I want to get the commands history as a character vector instead of just displaying them, but the function history() just returns NULL. I checked the source code of 'history' and could not find a solution. Anybody has an idea? Thanks! P. S. My original problem is, when a user opens a graphics device like png() or pdf(), I want to know the file name used by this device. I

I have a big contingency table, approximately of size 60*2*500*500, and I need to count the number of cells containing a count of 1 for each of the factors values defining the first dimension. Here is my attempt: tab1<-with(pisa1,table(CNT,GENDER,ISCOF,ISCOM)) tab2<-apply(tab1,1:4,function(x)ifelse(sum(x)==1,1,0)) tab3<-apply(tab2,1,sum) Computing tab2 is very slow. Is there a faster

Dear R users, I've just posted a similar question about Illustrator. This time I would like to export the results of my statistic tables and my dataframes into Excel files. Up to now I've used write.csv(), but I have to resave every file in .xls in Excel. I would like to know if there is a function or package to export directly into *.xls. I have found xlsReadWrite which would be

My configuration is Windows XP, R-2.5.1patched. My standard browser in Windows is Firefox 2.0.6, and I am using htmlhelp. I have problems with starting the browser for displaying help. help("lm") works as it should when Firefox is already running. When I do help("lm") and the browser is not yet started, I get Error in shell.exec(url) :

I have problems with Rpad and R 2.10.0 (Windows XP and Windows 7, browser is Firefox) Just starting Rpad by library(Rpad) Rpad() opens the browser and displays the .html files and the .Rpad files in my home directory, but these files do not have links and are not clickable. Doing the same in R 2.9.2 gives clickable links in the browser. Furthermore, in both cases an empty graphics window

Hello, I am very new to R and data analysis in general. I am trying to generate values to append to my data frame using conditional statements. I am playing with this simple example: a <- c(1:4) b <- c("meep", "foo", "meep", "foo") d <- cbind(a, b) now what I want to do is , each time there is a "meep" in column 2 of d, print

A common process when data is obtained in an Excel spreadsheet is to save the spreadsheet as a .csv file then read it into R. Experienced users might have learned to be wary of dates (as I have) but possibly have not experienced what just happened to me. I thought I might just share it with r-help as a cautionary tale. I received an Excel file giving patient details. Each patient had an ID

Is there code for bivariate kernel density estimation? For bivariate kernels there is kde2d in MASS kde2d.g in GRASS KernSur in GenKern (list probably incomplete) but none of them seems to accept a weight parameter (like density does since R 2.2.0) -- Erich Neuwirth, University of Vienna Faculty of Computer Science Computer Supported Didactics Working Group Visit our SunSITE at

I just uninstalled R 2.7.2 on Windows XP after having installed R 2.8.0 The uninstaller removed the String values HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\R-core\R\Current Version HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\R-core\R\InstallPath despite the fact that they pointed to R 2.8.0 The uninstaller did not remove the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\R-core\R\2.7.2 (and all the values in that key) I think the

Dear all, does anyone know if it is possible to connect a Windows RExcel instance to a linux R instance? Within Rexcel, I find the option "Remote Server Address", but I wonder what the installation procedure on my linux (ubuntu) R looks like (if possible at all)? Thanks Philipp

Hello: First, RExcel completely rocks! Hat tip to the development team. However, I don't understand something very basic about it. Suppose I put the following code in two cells and choose the Run Code option plot(runif(20),runif(20)) text(.5,.5,"Hello") I get the expected plot. HOWEVER, if I put the following in a cell and hit Run Code, I get nothing. runif(20) HOWEVER, If I

I am looking for information on experimentation with the use of R in the teaching of statistics and science in schools. Any leads would be very welcome. I am certain that there is such experimentation. I've made this inquiry on r-sig-teaching, with no response. John.

Dear all, A hopefully simple question: how do I round a series of values (held in an object) to the nearest 5? I've checked out trunc, round, floor and ceiling, but these appear to be more tailored towards rounding decimal places.

I'm having trouble with the standard deviation distribution as shown on http://mathworld.wolfram.com/StandardDeviationDistribution.html . (Eric Weisstein references Kenney and Keeping 1951, which I can't check.) I believe the graphs they show, but when I code the function in R, according to the listed formula, I get very different graphs. Would someone please point out my error or tell

Hi,   I would like to make a program that reads excel files, and writes the cells of which contents is not a formula to another file. I don't think this is possible with RODBC, but it may be possible with rcom.     I read the documentation of the rcom package, but I was hoping somebody knows a good web resource for more eleborate info. I tried Googling, but alas (did you know rcom also is a
