Dear R Gurus, As you probably know, dist calculates the distance between every two rows of data. What I am interested in is the actual two rows that have the least distance between them, rather than the numerical value of the distance itself. For example, If the minimum distance in the following sample run is d[14], which is .3826119, and the rows are 4 & 6. I need to find a generic way to

Hi, I am wondering if some experienced users would help put the ready-to-run code of the examples in the manuals. It would help new users learn R faster by putting all the examples in an ready-to-run R script file. Can somebody help do so sometime and post the code along with the pdf manuals? http://cran.r-project.org/manuals.html Regards, Peng

I don't find a function to print a string to file. Would somebody let me know what function I should use?

Some examples in the help page are too long to be copied from screen. Could somebody let me know some easy way on how to extract the example to a file so that I can play with them?

I found this paper on ANOVA on unequal error variance. Has this be incorporated to any R package? Is there any textbook that discuss the problem of ANOVA on unequal error variance in general? http://www.jstor.org/stable/2532947?cookieSet=1

Hi, x=matrix(1:60,nr=6) I can refer the last 2 rows by x[5:6,] If I don't know the total number of rows is 6, is there a way to refer the last 2 rows? Regards, Peng

Hi, I'm learning the tutorial. http://llvm.org/docs/tutorial/ I'm wondering if there is already a git repository of the examples in the tutorial so that I don't have to copy the code from the webpage. Thanks! -- Regards, Peng

read.table terminates the program if the input file is empty. Is there way to let the program continue and return me a NULL instead of terminating the program? $ Rscript read_empty.R > read.table("empty_data.txt") Error in read.table("empty_data.txt") : no lines available in input Execution halted $ cat read_empty.R read.table("empty_data.txt") $ cat

Hi, I don't quite understand what are the return values of aov. I know that it has 'coefficients'. But I need to know what all the other return values are. Can somebody let me know how to figure them? Value: An object of class 'c("aov", "lm")' or for multiple responses of class 'c("maov", "aov", "mlm",

Is there a function in R that corresponds to the function ``map'' of perl? It could be called like: vector.a <- map( vector.b, FUN, args.for.FUN ) It should execute for each element ele.b of vector.b: FUN( vector.b, args.for.FUN) It should return a vector (or data.frame) of the results of the calls of FUN. It nearly works using: apply( data.frame( vector.b ), 1, FUN,

Hi, I am wonder if there is a function similar 'apply' but it could accept multiple arguments? For example, I have the following matrix. x=matrix(1:6,nr=2) y=matrix(1:6,nr=2) I want to find a function that can be used to compute the linear regression for each pair of rows in the two matrices? multiple_apply(x,y,1,function(u,v){lm(u ~ v)} That is, I wound like something like the above

Hi, > x=c(rep(1,3),rep(3,2)) > x [1] 1 1 1 3 3 > duplicated(x) [1] FALSE TRUE TRUE FALSE TRUE > As shown in the above code, 'duplicated' doesn't return 'F' for the first '1' and first '3' in 'x'. I am wondering if there is a function that can return an indicator for any element whether it appears in a vector twice or more. Regards, Peng

Hi, I am wondering how to pop up the graphics window from Rscript. I run the following code, but I don't see the graphics window, even transiently. Regards, Peng $ Rscript plot.R > x=1:10 > y=1:10 > plot(x,y) >

I can exclude columns by column number using '-'. But I wondering if there is an easy way to exclude some columns by column names. > x=cbind(c(1,2),c(3,4)) > x [,1] [,2] [1,] 1 3 [2,] 2 4 > colnames(x)=c('a','b') > x a b [1,] 1 3 [2,] 2 4 > x[,-'a'] Error in -"a" : invalid argument to unary operator > x[,-1] [1] 3 4

Hi, I have llvm installed through MacPorts. But I don't see macports installed. Are there supposed to be manpages of commands like lli installed? -- Regards, Peng

Hi, I'm wondering if R provide a vi mode in the command line just like other shells such as bash do. Can somebody let me know? Regards, Peng

This works great. > You can also try using the gllvm wrapper: https://github.com/SRI-CSL/gllvm ; it's quite reliable and easy to use in my experience. Just to be sure. Only one version of bc file will be generated that corresponds to the compiler options provide at configure? The original approach using ld.gold will provide several .bc files that correspond to different stages of the

There are a few version of apply() (e.g., lapply(), sapply()). I'm wondering if there is one that does not return anything but just silently apply a function to the list argument. For example, the plot function is applied to each element in 'alist'. It is redundant to return anything from apply. apply(alist,function(x){ plot each element of alist})

There are a number of functions that are dispatched to from split(). > methods('split') [1] split.data.frame split.Date split.default split.POSIXct Is there a way to figure out which of these variants is actually dispatched to when I call split? I know that if the argument is of the type data.frame, split.data.frame will be called? Is it the case that if the argument is not
