Hi, I've recently taken over maintenance for the "xtable" package, and have set it up on R-Forge. At the moment I'm pondering what the best way is to handle submitted patches. Basically, is it better to: 1) Be non-restrictive regarding committer status, let individuals change the code with minimal pre-commit review, and figure changes can be reviewed before

I'm having trouble returning a rolling n period highest value for a data set. For each day I want to calculate the highest value over the last 3 days. I am using the following packages: zoo, xts, quantmod and TTR.

Let's say I had a matrix like this: library(Ryacas) x<-Sym("x") m<-matrix(c(cos (x), sin(x), -sin(x), cos(x)), ncol=2) How can I use R to obtain the eigenvalues and eigenvectors? Thanks, John [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, I am new to R and I want to know how to use C code which contains two functions one called inside another.I know that how to use C code in R if it has only one function but dont know how to do it in above case. I want to use the same in R .My C code is as follows. //#include <R.h> void sayHello(); void g(); void sayhello() { Rprintf("Hello world %d\n",global); } void

Hi, > history() gives Error in savehistory(file) : no history available to save although I can scroll throu history with C^uparrow an C^downarrow. How can I make history() work and/or show the current history in a file, so that I can choose from previous commands? The web did not throw up anything useful. TIA --Christian -- Christian W.

foreach (or virtually anything you might use for concurrent programming) only really makes sense if the work the "clients" are doing is substantial enough to overwhelm the communication overhead. And there are many ways to accomplish the same task more or less efficiently (for example, doing blocks of tasks in chunks rather than passing each one as an individual job). But more to the

Dear All, I have to get the value of say 90th percentile of precipitation time series.. The series is of daily precipitation value of 96 years, I have to to get 90the percentile value of daily precipitation each year. If you know the R code or command for this please let me know. I would appreciate your early response. Thanking you, Sincerely, Ajay.

Hi,    I have a file containing gene expressions written using the tillingArray package. I used load() and attach() to get the data into R. Both of them works fine. Now I want to see the contents of the file. How can I see the contents of the file? Thankyou for your time. Regards, Ambuj The INTERNET now has a personality. YOURS! See your Yahoo! Homepage.

Hello, just a couple of short questions that would be much appreciated. Is there a way of putting a vectors inputs in size order from low to high? And if I had a random list or TRUE and FALSE, is there a way of finding the 100th TRUE? Thank you very much, Elliot Welch elliot.welch at virgin.net Sent from my BlackBerry? smartphone

Dear All, I have large matrix (46000 x 11250). I would like to do the linear regression for each row. I wrote a simple function that has lm() and used apply(mat,1,func). The issue is that it takes ages to load the file and also to finish the lm. I am using LINUX 64 bit with 32G mem. Is there an elegant and fast way of completing this task? Thanks in advance. Kind regards, Ezhil

Greetings! As part of my research project I am using R to study temperature data collected by a network. Each node (observation point) records temperature of its surroundings throughout the day and generates a dataset. Using the recorded datasets for the past 7 days I need to build a prediction model for each node that would enable it to check the observed data against the predicted data. How can

Hi, The answers to my previous question about nominal variables has lead me to a more important question. What is the "best practice" way to feed nominal variable to an SVM. For example: color = ("red, "blue", "green") I could translate that into an index so I wind up with color= (1,2,3) But my concern is that the SVM will now think that the values are

Hi, I have a very basic question about install packages from CRAN on unix. I only installed on Windows before. Should I use the command install.package? The error message I got is syntax error near unexpected token `"mvtnorm"' Is it because I didn't set the path? Which path should I specify? Thanks, Cindy [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi all, Trying to do what my subject says. As I'm trying to be better about making packages out of my code, I'd like the packages themselves to be better, which means *.Rd- documenting my code. The thing is, from years of programming other languages prior to landing in the R pond, I've grown accustomed to documenting my functions inline. I'm not just used to it, but I like

Hi all, I'm putting together some common code + data into a custom package, everything is working out fine, but the ``R CMD INSTALL MyPackage`` call seems to take a particularly long time in the "**data" step: $ R CMD INSTALL MyPackage/ * installing to library ?/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/ library? * installing *source* package ? MyPackage? ... ** R ** data

I am experimenting with parallel processing using foreach and seem to be missing something fundamental. Cool stuff. I've gone through the list and seen a couple of closely related issues, but nothing I've tried seems to work. I know that the results from foreach are combined, but what if there is more than one variable within the loop? Below is a snippet (non-functioning) of code that I

Hi, Essentially: subject line says it all. I've created a package that wraps an external c++ library (which I didn't write) that only successfully compiles on 64bit machines. I'd like to make the package broadly available, but is there a way to get it on CRAN if the 32-bit builds break by specifying its 64-bit only somehow? Luckily, I've ./configure'd my
