Hello, I want to run an r script that contains code for a gui (rgtk) on the command line (windows 2000, 32 bits) using R2.10.1, but the Gui disappears a few miliseconds after I started the program. What switch should I use to prevent this? I tried r.exe, rterm.exe and rscript.exe with various combinations of switches, but none of them works.   TIA Cheers!! Albert-Jan

Hi, I need some help figuring out how to make a pop-up message box appear with error messages when running a script using Rterm. Windows XP R2.10.1 ...possibly with the ability to either continue or abort the script? Thanks. M -- [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear R-ers, I am a gratuate student from South China University of Technology. I fond the function 'sprintf' in R2.10.1 have a little bug(?): When you type in the example codes: > sprintf("%s is %f feet tall\n", "Sven", 7.1) and R returns: [1] "Sven is 7.100000 feet tall\n" this is very different from the 'sprintf' function in C/C++, for in

Dear useRs: I try to use mob from the party package (thanks Achim and Co.!) to model based recursive partition a data set. The model is a logistic regression specified with model=glinearModel and family=binomial(). Running mob results in a few warnings of the type: In glm.fit ... algorithm did not converge. As I speculate that this may be due to an insufficient number of iterations I am

Dear R-Help Group: R will not start on my imac running 10.6.2. I installed both R2.10.1 and 2.10.0 from pkg. It crashed on both. I tried both the R and R64 apps and both versions 2.10.1 and 2.10.0. I googled and found nothing on this. Below is part of report: Process: R [767] Path: /Applications/R64.app/Contents/MacOS/R Identifier: org.R-project.R Version: R

I am trying to use the "cast" function from the reshape package, where the formula is not passed in directly, but as the result of the as.formula() function. Using reshape v. 0.7.2 I am able to properly melt() by data with: > molten <- melt(x, id=1:2) then I can properly cast with this: > cast(molten, days ~ variable) but if I try > cast(molten,

Dear moderators, when I installed the latest version of R (R2.10.1) under Microsoft Vista (service pack 2), I ran into problems associating Rgui.exe with .RData files. On doubleckicking such files in explorer, they open in a Rterm window. Trying to associate Rgui.exe with the Rdata files via control panel / default programs does not work - Rgui is not added to the list of recommended programs. I

Hello dear R-devel list members. Following an old (2002) thread from R-help (and having myself needing to solve the same question): https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2002-October/026249.html I patched the {base} function "merge.data.frame" to have it work with a new parameter called "keep_order", and I hope you might consider including this patch (or some variation of it)

Hello, I need to have a "kaufmaennisches Runden" function. Is there already something like that? It means: rounding up the 5, instead of rounding it down. So, 245.455 would give 245.46 I found no option for this. Maybe there is a package for it? Oliver

Dear R Users, I'm trying to use the 'cast' function in the 'reshape' package to convert column-format data to gridded-format data. A sample of my dataset is as follows: head(finalframe) Latitude Longitude Temperature OrigLat p-value Blaney 1 -90 -38.75 NA -87.75 17.10167 NA 2 -90 135.75 NA -87.75 17.10167 NA 3 -90 80.25

Hi, I have a data frame with variables a, b, c (character vars) and t (time var, could be represented as POSIXct or character, depending on which is most useful. The format is "yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss CET"). Now, I want to sort the data frame in ascending order by a, b, c and then in descending order by t. Here's what I've got, but I'm not sure how to put the

Hi,   I am making a mock user interface in tcltk and I would like to add a 'check menu button' such as shown here: http://zetcode.com/tutorials/pygtktutorial/images/checkmenuitem.png   Does anybody know how to do this? I am quite new to R. Cheers!! Albert-Jan ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ All right, but apart from the sanitation, the medicine,

Hi,   I'm reading 100s of excel files and many of them contain links to external files (I hate that, but that aside). Every time such a file is opened, a menu pops up asking if I want to update the links. I never want to update the links. I used the macro recorder to see what code would be needed to suppress that message, but to no avail (I tried more variations, but one attempt is shown

Hi all, I'm an R novice. I have data that's already formatted as "molten" that reshape should be able to work with. For example, the following was read in with read.csv(filename,sep=" ", header=FALSE) V1 V2 V3 V4 V5 1 original book book.source1.txt 328900494 3039.525 2 original book book.source1.txt

Hello, A simple question perhaps, but how do I, within each row, find the first occurence of the number 1 in the df below? I want to use this position to programmatically create the variable 'year'. I'v come up with a solution, but I find it downright ugly. Is there a simpler way? I was hoping for a useful built-in function that I don;t yet know about. df <-

Dear All: For a few days now I have struggled with recreating a stable LaTeX/R/Sweave environment on a new Windows XP SP3 machine. Unfortunately it seems that I ran out of good ideas and I would like your expert opinion on how I should approach this task and be successful. In essence, I installed (several times) in this order the following: R2.10.1 (and then R 2.9.2), Adobe Acrobat Reader 9

Hi everyone. Long time listener, first-time caller here. I have a data set that's been melted with the excellent reshape package, but I can't seem to cast it the way I need to. Here's the melted data's structure: > str(mdat) 'data.frame': 6978 obs. of 4 variables: $ VehType : Factor w/ 2 levels "Car","Truck": 1 1 2 1 1 2 1 1 1 1 ... $ Year :

Hello, How can I tell RODBC to scan all the records of an xls file to determine the data type? If the first n records happen to be empty Rodbc assumes a character, and any numbers are made <NA>. And if, for instance, the first n records contain numbers, and later they also contain characters, those characters become NA. Cheers!! Albert-Jan

Hi,   I would like to recursively loop through al subfolders of a directory and do stuff with certain file types in those dirs. Is there a package/function that could do this? So it's more than Sys.glob. I'm looking for equivalent of Python's os.walk *) and I don't want to reinvent the wheel.   Thank you. Cheers!! Albert-Jan   *)
