RGoogleDocs/RCurl through proxy
Dear list, I am trying to use RGoogleDocs, but I am connecting through a proxy server. I know RCurl is used for the connection, which should be able to deal with proxies and such. How do I set this up for RCurl? And can I use those settings with RGoogleDocs as well? I have the name of the proxy server and the port number. (Windows XP). thanks, Remko

Faster union of polygons?
Dear R-helpers, thanks for yesterday's speeding-up tip. Here is my next query: I have lots of polygons (not necessarily convex ones, and they never have holes) given by x,y coordinates. I want to get the polygon that is the union of these polygons. This is my current method, but I am hoping there is a faster method (up to thousands of polygons, each with ca. 40 xy points). Example:

interpSpline with dates?
Dear R-helpers, can I use a POSIXct date as the x variable in interpSpline? The help page says x and y need to be numeric... is there a workaround? example: library(splines) testdfr <- data.frame(Date=seq(as.POSIXct("2008-08-01"),as.POSIXct("2008-09-01"), length=10)) testdfr$yvar <- rnorm(10) sp <- interpSpline(yvar ~ Date, testdfr) preddfr <-

SHLIB not working (Win Vista)

Running examples failed (but there are none).
Dear R-helpers, making a package (windowsXP), that includes a bunch of functions, but none have examples (all example code is within \dontrun{} blocks). I do R CMD check Maeswrap, all bits get OK-ed, except: "Running examples in 'Maeswrap-Ex.R' failed." When I run the 'Maeswrap-Ex.R' file myself, there are no problems. Any pointers? thanks Remko

Box-counting dimension and package 'fdim'
Dear R-helpers, I am looking for an implementation of the box-counting algorithm to estimate the box dimension of a cloud of points in 3D (aka fractal dimension, or similarity dimension). The package 'fdim' might be doing this, but the documentation is awful and I don't understand what is what there. Does anyone know of an implementation of this algorithm in R, or elsewhere, or

Sweave : some comments disappear
Dear R-helpers, when I have an R code chunk in a sweave file like this: <<>>= x <- 1:10 # this comment disapears x # this one does not! print(x) #mean mean(x) @ The first comment does not appear in the sweaved document, the second one does. How can this be? I have tried print=TRUE and keep.source=TRUE, but neither seem to affect this behavior. thanks, Remko

R-Fortran question (multiple subroutines)
Dear R-helpers, apologies if this is somewhere in a manual, I have not been able to find anything relevant. I run Windows Vista. I have some Fortran code in a subroutine, and have no problem calling this from R with .Fortran, compiling the code either with 'R CMD SHLIB' or independently with gfortran. But is it possible to have more than one subroutine in my source file, one depending

Possible bug in plot.POSIXct regarding x axis
I believe I have found a bug (or at least a misfeature) in plot.POSIXct. See the following example code. set.seed(1) x=seq(1,1e8,length=100)+round(runif(100)*1e8) y=as.POSIXct(x,origin="2001-01-01") plot(y) This plots some random (date)times against their indices. The y axis correctly shows appropriate values (years), but the x axis contains the single number '59:58' in the

How to tell if lattice is current device?
Dear R-helpers, I have a function that adds some segments to the current plot, but if I the current plot is made with any of the lattice functions (in my case, levelplot), I should use lsegments rather than segments. How can I tell if the current device was made with plot() or e.g. levelplot() or another lattice function? dev.cur() does not help me, it just tells me "windows 2".

gam confidence interval (package mgcv)
Dear R-helpers, I am trying to construct a confidence interval on a prediction of a gam fit. I have the Wood (2006) book, and section 5.2.7 seems relevant but I am not able to apply that to this, different, problem. Any help is appreciated! Basically I have a function Y = f(X) for two different treatments A and B. I am interested in the treatment ratios : Y(treatment = B) / Y(treatment = A) as

Is there a function to test if all the elements in a vector are unique
length(unique(c(1,2,2)))==length(c(1,2,2)) I use the above test to test if all the elements in a vector are unique. But I'm wondering if there is a convenient function to do so in R library.

Plot polygon in 3D with rgl
Dear R-helpers, an rgl-ers in particular, what is the easiest way to plot a section of a plane in 3D, that is given by the xyz coordinates of the outline? Suppose I have a polygon - which I know for sure is a set of coordinates on the same plane. One method I found is to use surf.tri from the geometry package, and then plot the triangles with rgl.triangles. This method is not perfect though,

Build a dataframe row by row?
Hi, Time for another of my "newbie" questions. Is it possible to build up a data.frame "row by row" as I go I'm going to be running a bunch of experiments (many in a loop) to test different things. I'm using AUC as my main performance measure. My thought was to add a row to a data.frame for each iteration and then have a nice summary report at the end. I found

vector as data.frame element?
It seems that an vector or other non elemental data type can not be assigned to an element in the data.frame. I'm wondering what is the walk around. > li=data.frame(a=c(0,1), b=c('x','y')) > li$b[[1]]= 'x' > li$b[[2]]<- c('y','z') Error in li$b[[2]] <- c("y", "z") : more elements supplied than there are to replace

Print methods
I've built a package that contains only two functions for a test run. They are: g <- function(x){ x <- x^2 class(x) <- "foo" x } print.foo <- function(x, ...){ cat("This is a test:\n") cat(x, "\n") invisible(x) } Simply testing these functions in the R workspace prior to a build yields: > g(1:5) This is a test: 1 4 9 16 25 Now, I

Arrange values on a timeline
I have a set of labels arranged along a timeframe in a. Each label has a timestamp and marks a state until the next label. The dataframe a contains 5 such timestamps and 5 associated labels. This means, on a continious scale between 1-100, there are 5 markers. E.g. 'abc' marks the timestampls between 10 and 19, 'def' marks the timestamps between 20 and 32, and so on. a <-

processing all files with certain extension in a directory
