Dear all I'd like to make a beeping sound in R, but alarm() doesn't beep? I checked ?alarm but I couldn't find any pointers to system configuration. Any ideas?

WinXP, R 2.10.1 I just updated R, and now have trouble. Perhaps it was the method I used to keep all the packages. I copied all the new packages from 2.10.1 back into the 2.10.0 folder, then copied them and all the others I've previously added from the 2.10.0 folder and pasted them back into 2.10.1's appropriate folder. Is this the source of my troubles? I am trying unsuccessfully to

Hi, I have this problem: X is hazardous variable N(mean 2, sd=3) >>question 1) Find the c value, so that P(X>c)=0.10. using R >>question 2) Graph the function N(2,3) and with this graph, explain what you do in question number 1. I just found question number one but not the second one. So, I'd like to make a plot form this distribution N (2,3) using the functions plot and

Dear list subscriber, I am quite puzzled by the behaviour of processing Sweave files within an R session, i.e. Sweave("foo.Rnw") versus R CMD Sweave foo.Rnw In the former the environmental variable 'SWEAVE_STYLEPATH_DEFAULT = TRUE' is obeyed (this is set in etc/Renviron.site as well as under the users home directory in .Renviron). That is the hard-coded path to Sweave.sty is

Dear all, There seems to be a problem with named chunks in Sweave with the version of R under development (downloaded yesterday). When I sweave the file toto.Rnw described at the end of this mail (Ubuntu 10.04 LTS), the function Sweave returns an Internal error: > utils::Sweave("toto.Rnw") Writing to file toto.tex Processing code chunks ... 1 : echo term verbatim (label=a) 2

Dear R-users, I am trying to make a plot with ggplot-geom_tile(), but cannot remove some unwanted (white) lines through my plot.

Hi, I am having a trouble parsing dates using strptime() that I get in the format of year and week number. The data looks like this "201127" which means year 2011 and week 27. I would like to graph this using ggplot but then I get a gap between 201054 and 201101 so I thought I would just easily convert it. I tried to use strptime and as.Date and the format string of %Y%W but it seems

When building packages these days I keep getting warnings from "R CMD build" to the effect that INDEX is not up to date. The INDEXes always seem to be up do to date to *me*. Then I thought to compare the INDEX from the package source with the INDEX in the installed package (after building with the --force flag set). Doing a diff on the old INDEX (saved outside the source package

Dear all, When I use the cacheSweave package together with the Sweave option keep.source = TRUE, all the LaTeX code before the Sweave code chunk is included in the TeX file to be compiled. For example, with the following Sweave file \documentclass[12pt]{article} \usepackage[nogin]{Sweave} % Sweave options \SweaveOpts{keep.source=TRUE, strip.white=TRUE, eps=FALSE, pdf=TRUE} \begin{document}

This question seemed to me to be more appropriate for r-devel than for r-help. My apologies if this is not the case. Recently I installed ``cairo'' on my lap-top so that I could make use of the (newish) polypath() function, with on-screen graphics. (The polypath() function does not work with X11(type="Xlib").) The installation went smoothly, X11(type="cairo") works

Dear R users, I have just upgraded R from 2.11 to 2.12 on Ubuntu 9.04 (see more informations at the end) from the cran apt-get repository. One of the new things concerning the install.packages() function is stated here : install.packages() and remove.packages() with lib unspecified and multiple libraries in .libPaths() inform the user of the library location used with a message
