What is the difference between S and R?

Since S and R are not completely the same, there are delicate differences between S and R, which an S book may be confusing if I want to learn R. One example is Statistical Models

tapply and empty subsets
I am using tapply to compute means by group, as in > tapply(y, z, mean) 1 2 3 21.00757 20.50031 NA where y is a vector and z a factor with levels 1:3. I would like to get a zero instead of the NA I get when a subset is empty. The problem is that FUN is not applied to empty cells of the ragged array. (Of course I am willing to define a function my.mean that returns

non-interactive call to R (running an R package as a stand-alone application)
Is there a way I can have R automatically execute the commands in a source file without ever having to use R interactively? If so, what arguments should I pass to the UNIX call to R? I need to do this to run several R jobs in parallel. An alternative may be to have R and an R package behave as a stand-alone application that can be called from the UNIX command line. Is there any documentation on

Two math expressions in plot
Hello! I am trying to put two math expressions in the title of a plot. As you can see below, I can place correctly one expression at a time, but not both. Ideally I would like to have them separated by a comma.

Summing elements in a list
Hi, Suppose that I have a list where each component is a list of two matrices. I also have a vector of weights. How can I collapse my list of lists into a single list of two matrices where each matrix in the result is the weighted sum of the corresponding matrices. I could use a loop but this is a nested calculation so I was hoping there is a more efficient way to do this. To help clarify,

quantile function
I am trying to `cut' a continuous variable into contiguous classes containing approximately an equal number of observations. I thought quantile() was the appropriate function to use in order to find the breakpoints, but I end up with classes of different sizes - see example below. Does anybody have an explanation for that? And what is the `recommended' way of computing what I am looking

knitr customization
I am trying to transition from Sweave to knitr, but there are a few things about customization of the appearence of R input and output that I did not get yet. Maybe somebody on the list can help me. In my Sweave presentations I used a slanted font for the R input and a normal font for the output, both in a small font. I also indented everything by an extra 2em. All this was achieved by the

Suggestions for statistical computing course
Dear R-helpers, I am planning a course on Statistical Computing and Computational Statistics for the Fall semester, aimed at first year Masters students in Statistics. Among the topics that I would like to cover are linear algebra related to least squares calculations, optimization and root-finding, numerical integration, Monte Carlo methods (possibly including MCMC), bootstrap, smoothing and

Means of Monte Carlo simulated lists
Hello, I am doing simulations, and I generate a list at each iteration (with three component matrices in the example below), saving the results in a list. For example, after two iterations, I have something like > str(sim.theta) List of 2 $ :List of 3 ..$ : num [1:6, 1:4] -3.67 -1.07 -2.99 -18.38 -3.26 ... ..$ : num [1:6, 1:6] -7.56 -3.14 -4.99 1.03 2.79 ... ..$ : num [1:6, 1:4]

Synchronizing R libraries on N machines?
Hello! I am using R on two different machines (under Ubuntu and OS X, but this is probably irrelevant) and I would like to keep the two installations 'synchronized', in particular in terms of installed packages. For example, if I install package xxx on my Linux machine, I would like to find it installed also on my Mac, and vice versa. I imagine this to be a fairly common problem, so I

Shared libraries for use with R
I am moving my first steps in writing and compiling C code and calling it from R. (I am also new to shared libraries...) My problem is that my C code uses a C function contained in another library (".a", not ".so" - is that the problem?). This is how I compile the file with the functions I want to call from R: cd /export/home/gpetris/ R SHLIB tryit.c cc

Example scripts for R Manual
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
