I have pretty big data sizes, like matrices of .5 to 1.5GB so once i need to juggle several of them i am in need of disk cache. I am trying to use bigmemory package but getting problems that are hard to understand. I am getting seg faults and machine just hanging. I work by the way on Red Hat Linux, 64 bit R version 10. Simplest problem is just saving matrices. When i do something like

Could someone give me an idea on how to do rolling ranking, i.e. rank in the moving window of last 100 numbers in a long vector? I tried naive solution like roll.rank<-function(v, len){ r<-numeric(length(v)-len+1) for(i in len:length(v)) r[i-len+1]<-rank(v[(i-len+1):i])[len] r } However, it turns out pretty slow even on my rather able Linux box. For

I'm trying to use the rgl package on R-2.7.1 running on top of Ubuntu Hardy amd64. using open3d() and plot3d() I get a plot, but it is not interactive. Furthermore, changes to par3d("FOV"=my.new.value) do nothing. I suspect something is wrong with the rendering engine or interface to it. I do have an Nvidia driver installed and compiz works correctly on the desktop. I've

Dear List, I'm not an expert on Linux but I have been using Ubuntu and R sice two years ago. I've just installed Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex (8.10, Kernel: 2.6.27-7-generic) from the scratch and then installed R, following the instruction given on: http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/README, and everything worked fine. However, after the installation I realized that the installed

I'm using Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex) and R 2.7.1. I've built a package from source (a modified version of gbm) and it contains some C++ code. I now want to cross-compile it to get a Windows version. I installed R using sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install r-base sudo apt-get install r-base-dev So far as I can tell, I've also followed all the instructions in the guide

I added "plogis" to the derivative table in the development version of R; the patch against yesterday's R-devel src/deriv/main.c is available at http://www.zoology.ufl.edu/bolker/deriv_patch.txt . I pretty much followed the framework of the other symbols; here was my incantation - } else if (CAR(expr) == PlogisSymbol) { - ans = simplify(TimesSymbol, -

I just upgraded to Ubuntu 8.10 (i386) from 8.04. After the upgrade, I ran update.packages(.libPaths()[1]) in R to get the packages installed from source up to date too. Unfortunately, two packages could not be updated: mclust and mboost. In both cases, the error I got mentioned lf77blas. Here's the output for mboost: * Installing *source* package 'mboost' ... ** libs gcc -std=gnu99

I have just encountered the problem with rgl where plot3d figures don't interact with the mouse. My plots zoom in and out with the mouse wheel but the mouse buttons do nothing. I can't rotate the plot. This has been mentioned and discussed here and in other lists before, and the solution is to turn off Ubuntu's fancy graphics. Back in March, Ben Bolker said: """

I started to look at ways to improve times of certain very parallel tasks and thought that foreach should be a valid candidate to do the job. So, i opened foreach tutorial by Steve Weston and started timing examples from it. First example from tutorial is  >system.time(for(i in 1:100000) sqrt(i))    user  system elapsed     0.06    0.00    0.06  > system.time(foreach(i=1:100000) %do%

Hello, I am using rbetabinom ( to generate beta binomial random variables) function available in the "emdbook"package written by Professor. Ben Bolker for my research study. I have no questions with this function. However, I am looking for the theoretical method/algorithm of the function "rbetabinom " . Morris (1997), American Naturalist 150:299-327 is given as the reference

Hi, do you have any suggestions how to make 3D scatterplot, BUT under linux. Worth mentioning is the fact that 'scatterplot3d' does not load under Ubuntu 8.10. Do you know any alternatives?? I tried cloud or persp but X,Y and Z axes are emprical in my case, and cannot be replaced by any seq(...). Thanks in advance, robert -- View this message in context:

Dear R and lme4 users- I am trying to fit a mixed-effects model, with the glmer function in lme4, to right-skewed, zero-inflated, non-normal data representing understory grass and forb biomass (continuous) as a function of tree density (indicated by leaf-area). Thus, I have tried to specify a Gamma distribution with a log-link function but consistently receive an error as follows: >

It's my vague impression that View() is workable on Windows and maybe on MacOS, but on Ubuntu Linux 9.04 (intrepid) it seems completely unstable. I can reliably crash R by trying to look at a very small, simple data frame ... I was going to try to run with debug turned on, but my installed version (2.9.0) doesn't have debugging symbols, and I'm having trouble building the latest

I'm trying to keep debugging of a development package relatively sane. I see that some packages manage to incorporate what appears to be Subversion (SVN) revision information in the package description; for example, > library(MASS) > sessionInfo()$otherPkgs$MASS$Revision [1] "$Rev: 3016 $" which looks like an auto-generated revision number. On the other hand, the rgl

All: I have been looking through the string of posts regarding this same issue, but I haven't been able to fix this problem. I am running Ubuntu 10.4 64bit, R version 2.10.1 I cannot install certain packages (e.g. "vegetarian") and each time it says basically the same thing (regardless of the package): ################################################################ ... leaving

I fired up a new machine last night and loaded Ubuntu 8.10 on it. I then had to add in the usual compiler stuff which is not loaded by default: make, emacs, fortran, c++, etc. I'm having trouble compiling R 2.8 however. I get a message that it cannot figure out how to link f77 and C. I've pulled in "gfortran". A google search on "fortran ubuntu 8.10" shows

Hi I am having problems with the rendering of scientific symbols (mu and degree) in my plots. Whenever I use these symbols they are rendered changed (mu is changed to the proportionality symbol and degree is changed to something resembling a gamma) in the X-device. If I make a pdf of the plot and open the file in Evince or Okular symbols are also rendered wrong, however if I open the file
