similar to: problem with installing a local zip file : GFCURE

Dear R-help, I am using R 2.14.1 on Windows 7 with the 'gfcure' package (cure rate model). I have included the treatment variable in the cure part of the model as shown below: Ø ref_treat <- gfcure(Surv(rem.Remtime,rem.Rcens)~1,~1+strata(drpa)+factor(treat(delcure)),data=delcure,dist="loglogistic") >From that I can obtain the coefficients, standard errors etc as per

Dear All, Are there R packages that can estimate survival model with long-term survivors? This is sometimes known as "cure" model or "split-population" model. Thanks. Shige [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, I downloaded a package with .gz extension, which presumably works for Unix, when I installed it directly on windows, it has the error msg: Error in gzfile(file, "r") : cannot open the connection In addition: Warning messages: 1: In unzip(zipname, exdir = dest) : error 1 in extracting from zip file 2: In gzfile(file, "r") : cannot open compressed file

Dear List, Does somebody know how to get the filename lists in the ziped when "gzfile" or "unz" command is used ? Thanks for your help. Shawn Lee -- The information contained in this communication and any atta...{{dropped}}

Can one write a zip file from R? I want to create a file with a name like "dat.zip", being a zip file containing "dat.csv". I can create "dat.csv", then call "system('zip -r9 dat.zip dat.csv')". Is there a better way? I can use "gzfile" to write a gz file, but I don't know how to give that a structure that would

Hi Sorry, I am clearly missing something here. I want to read this file directly: ftp://ftp.sanger.ac.uk/pub/mirbase/targets/v5/arch.v5.txt.gallus_gallus. zip I tried using read.table(gzfile("ftp://ftp.sanger.ac.uk/pub/mirbase/targets/v5/arch.v5 .txt.gallus_gallus.zip")) But I got an error: Error in open.connection(file, "r") : cannot open the connection In addition:

Hi I have been trawling the web, FAQs, and R manuals for help on the following issue, but have failed and was wondering if anyone has a solution to the following problem: After having installed R 2.6.2 for Windows (binary), I tried to install various packages. Every time I try loading a package (any package) via the built-in menu, I run into the following error message. >

Is it just me, or did a corrupt PACKAGES.gz file get installed in the bin/windows/contrib/3.2 directory of CRAN mirrors recently? gzfile() complains about it and Cygwin's gzip cannot decompress it. I tried the following repos <- "https://cran.rstudio.com" v <- "3.2" pkgs.gz <- paste(sep="/", repos, "bin/windows/contrib", v,

Hi, I'm running into more issues when reading data from a gzfile connection. If I read the data sequentially with successive calls to readBin(), the data I get looks ok. But if I call seek() between the successive calls to readBin(), I get corrupted data. Here is a (hopefully) reproducible example. See my sessionInfo() at the end (I'm not on Windows, where, according to the man page,

When I read a .gz file with readLines() in 3.4.3, it returns text (and a warning). In 3.5.0, it gives a warning, but no text. Is this expected behavior or a bug? 3.4.3: > source_file = "1k_annotation.gz" > readfile_con <- gzfile(source_file, "r") > readLines(readfile_con, n = 5) [1] "#chr\tpos\tref\talt\t <truncated output here> Warning message: In

I don't understand why I can not close 'f'. This may be very simple, but I don't see why. Could somebody let me know? $ cat gzfile.csv "","V1","V2","V3","V4","V5" "1",1,5,9,13,17 "2",2,6,10,14,18 "3",3,7,11,15,19 "4",4,8,12,16,20 $ Rscript gzfile.R > f =

Hi, I am making multiple calls to gzfile() via read.table(), e.g. > x <- read.table( gzfile( "xxx.gz" ) ) After i do this many times (I haven't counted, but probably between 50 and 100 times) I get the error message: Error in open.connection(file, "r") : unable to open connection In addition: Warning message: cannot open compressed file 'xxx.gz' however, I

I realize that others have struggled with this issue...i.e. http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/~rking/R/help/05/01/9826.html i am on os.x 10.4 w/ R2.2, and am (perhaps foolishly) also on this quest... i would like to be able to install downloaded source (tar.gz'd) files from within an R session, and have it work in a X-platform way..i am often not connected to the internet and have libraries

Dear all, In R-devel (2011-09-23 r57050), I'm running into a serious problem with seek()ing on connections opened with gzfile(). A warning is generated and the file position does not seek to the requested location. It doesn't seem to occur all the time - I tried to create a small example file to illustrate it, but the problem didn't occur. However, it can be seen with a file I use for

Hi, It seems like reading a line from a gzfile() connection changes the mode of the connection from text to binary (it also alters "can write", in case it matters). The following transcript, produced on RedHat 7.1, demonstrates this "feature" (note the evolution of file$text). Is this expected? Thanks, Vadim > file <- gzfile("foo.gz") file <-

Hello ... Are there any known problems or even gotchas to look out for when using a gzfile connection in read.csv/read.table in Windows? In the package PROcess, available at www.bioconductor.org/repository/devel/package/html/PROcess.html there are two files in the PROcess/inst/Test directory which are of the extension *.csv.gz. With both files, if I open up a gzfile connection, say: vv <-

Found the simpliest way of seeing I bug I encountered doing "R CMD check --use-gct": Just launch R (with --vanilla), and do this: > ?gctorture # this work > gctorture() > ?gctorture Error in gzfile(file, "rb") : can only weakly reference/finalize reference objects # this does not It seems that when gctorture() is on gzfile() doesn't work.

Hi everybody, I am using gzipped files quite extensively and cannot figure out how I can close (or reuse) connections. Example: > for(i in 1:300) {cat(i, "\n"); a <- readLines(gzfile("file.gz"), n=1) } 1 2 ... 46 47 Error in gzfile("~/tyyq/andmebaasiq/ETU/ETU1997.tsv.gz") : all connections are in use To use just gzfile without any open/close should

I get unexpected behavior from "readLines()" and "scan()" depending on how the file is opened with "gzfile" or "unz". More specifically: > file <- gzfile("file.gz") > readLines(file,1) [1] "a\tb\tc" > readLines(file,1) [1] "a\tb\tc" > close(file) It seems that the stream is rewound between calls to readLines.
