I know this is not really an R question - it is a query about a recent book on R ("R In Action") by Robert Kabacoff, (Manning Publications 2011). There are many references to interesting topics in R in the book, BUT, I do not find a bibliography/list of references in the book! Does anybody know if there are errata for the book available some place? Thanks, Ravi -- View this message

Hi Folks, I have created a website with over 70 R tutorials on a wide range of subjects. The site is aimed at data analysts who have an idea about what they would like to do, but don't know how to do it in R. The site should be particularly useful for users of statistical packages like SAS, SPSS, Stata, and Systat who would like to get up and running in R quickly. However, I think that it

Hi, I'm trying to connect to a Teradata database via RODBC on a Linux 64 machine (Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5).

We are new to R and evaluating if we can use it for a project we need to do. We have read that R is not well suited to handle very large data sets. Assuming we have the data prepped and stored in an RDBMS (Oracle, Teradata, SQL Server), what can R reasonably handle from a volume perspective? Are there some guidelines on memory/machine sizing based on data volume? We need to be able to handle

Hi, I am working on an old Unix system, UNIX SVR4 MP-RAS, running a Teradata database. Due to the age of the system (notably the C compiler, which won't handle v3 source code), I have built Samba 2.2.12 I want to use this to share Unix directories out to XP clients as network drives, for read-write access, keeping the file ownership as strict unix users.

Hi -- I''m on the road, so I haven''t laid eyes on it yet -- but word on the virtual street is that "Ruby for Rails: Ruby techniques for Rails developers" is now out in paper. It will probably take a little longer to trickle to your neighborhood Barnes and Noble... but you can order it now from the publisher. See http://www.manning.com/black. And trickle it will, too.
