Hi All, I am developing a package that requires information about the location of a set of files that will be used often in the calculations. In my current version, I define the location in the main file that calls all the subfunctions. This works fine when you are installing from source, but will not work so well if I want people to be able to install binary versions of the package. Therefore, I

So I have a list variable, and each item has a name. Is it possible to return just the names in the list and not the contents of each one? Example: Currently, if I have a list variable "matrices", and it contains 3 matrices, "M1", "M2", and "M3", if I type: matrices, R returns $M1 -> listing of numbers in matrix; $M2 -> listing of numbers in matrix,

Hi All, I'm hoping someone else can help me out with this. I am doing some matrix algebra using sub-parts of matrices, and sometimes I need only a single row/column of the original matrix. However, whenever I pull out only a single row/column, R returns a row vector, but often this will break my matrix algebra. Is there any *easy* way to get R to remember what the single row/column came out

Hi All, I don't know if such a thing exists, but I am looking for a way to better keep track of where data is going, how it is being modified, and what functions are acting upon it when I give the data over to a function that calls many subfunctions (as happens in my current package I am working on), or in an R script I am using to do multiple processing steps on data. Currently I find it

Say I have a tab-delimited table I want to read into R. What should I expect to happen if some of the entries contain the character " ' "? I thought it would read the file fine, but that is not what happens. Instead, all the values in between two " ' "s get read into one field, and things are just seriously messed up. Is this a bug, and besides removing the offending

Doing package development on a Windows 7 machine, and I want to tell R check not to worry about the "suggested" packages. I realize this can be done using the ~/.R/check.Renviron file, but what directory corresponds to "~"? Is that supposed to be the user directory? Or is it some other directory? I have this _R_CHECK_FORCE_SUGGESTS_=false (have also tried FALSE) in

Hi All, I was wondering if there would be any interest in adding an option to the "save" function in R that I think would be useful. I was thinking that it might be useful to have an option that would generate a ".sessionInfo" variable that contains the output of "sessionInfo()", and adds it to the list of objects to be saved. This way, whenever an RData object is

Does anyone have a recommendation for a good SIP phone with a busy lamp field? I need my operator to be able to see extension status for about 20 extensions and transfer via HOLD + extension button. I've got a pair of SNOM 360s with the sidecar, but I'm very disappointed with them. The buttons are cheap and rubbery like a Sipura 841, the handset cord is short and cheap, the audio quality

Hi I have a tab delimited file with fillowing content: "swissProtID" "entrezID" "bitVec" "Q62924" "---" "00000000100010000000000000000000" "P18897" "---" "00000000000001000100000000000000" "Q62736" "---"

Hi I am trying to read genbank est flat files. Is there any function in R to do that. I was looking for something similar to SeqIO.parse(input_handle, "genbank") in bioPython that convert the genebank sequence into fasta sequence. (One option is to call biopython from R but I am not familiar with python functions so I want to avoid that and I am keeping it as last resort) Thanks and

Hi Is there any function to do bitwise or/and/xor on long bit vectors? "aaaaa" "0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000......................" "bbbbb" "0000000000000000000000000000001000000000000100000000100000001100......................" "ccccc"

Currently (R-2.7.1 on Windows) bringToTop(stay=TRUE) when run before a device is opened, gives the error message > bringToTop(stay=TRUE) Error in bringToTop(stay = TRUE) : can only bring windows devices to the front > In the same circumstances, a call to par() opens a device. My request is to modify bringToTop(). If bringToTop() determines that it is running in an interactive

Hi all who know R on Windows, Quick question: Is there a way to do "bringToTop(stay=TRUE)" without giving "focus"? I would like to pop a graph window but I would like to preserve focus in the window which I was in before. Thanks for any lead, Chris

Full_Name: Henrik Bengtsson Version: R v1.7.1 OS: WinXP Pro Submission from: (NULL) (130.235.2.229) bringToTop() does not work if some windows has been closed. Example: graphics.off() x11() # opens Figure 2 x11() # opens Figure 3 dev.set(2) dev.off() # closes Figure 2 bringToTop(3) # Gives an error # Error in bringToTop(as.integer(which)) : invalid value of `which'

PROGRAMMERS FOR STARTUP We are a startup company in Louisville, KY, looking for two programmers. Realizing that Ruby is a relatively new language, experience on a major Ruby project is not necessary. We are more concerned with intelligence, work ethic, and general programming knowledge (although obviously we expect you to know some Ruby). Some C experience will probably help too. Initial work

Hola! I have problems running Rcmd check (windows 98, R1.3.0) It ckoks on an example running a function which calla bringToTop(). This makes an error because Rcmd check runs the examples with the postscript device, and bringToTop does not make sense with that device. Howevere, my function is for interactive use, and needs bringToTop. How can this be used in examples and still have the

Hi, I am trying to call a C function, that I wrote to parse a flat file, into R. The argument that will go into this function is an input file that I need to parse and write the desired output in an output file. I used some hit and trial approach but i keep on getting the "file not found" or "segmentation fault" error. I know that the error is in passing the argument but I

When I want to pick up a ringing line, I dial *8 and hit New Call softkey on my Poly 501. For some reason, if I pick up the hand set and dial *8, it seems to ignore or drop the 8 digit. I've confirmed that this happens with all of my 12 Polycom 501s. Does anyone know what would cause this or how to fix it?

Hello, After I plot something how do I reactivate the console (and not the plot window) so I don't have to click on the console each time to go to the next command? Example that does not work: fun = function(x){ plot(x); dev.set(dev.prev())} fun(1:4) ...and another that does not work: fun = function(x){ plot(x); dev.set(NULL)} fun(1:4) Again, by 'not work' I mean I can't seem
