similar to: Reading DESCRIPTION files to create dependency diagram

Thank you Gabriel, Just for future readers. Below is a base R way to address this common problem, as instructed by you (+stopifnot to suppress print). Rscript -e 'stopifnot(file.copy("DESCRIPTION", file.path(tdir<-tempdir(), "PACKAGES"))); db<-available.packages(paste0("file://", tdir));

Hello, All: tools::package_dependencies('Ecfun') failed to find how my development version of Ecfun was using rJava, which generated errors in "R CMD build Ecfun". This is because package_dependencies by default uses CRAN and ignores locally installed packages. What do you think about having this function check both locally installed and CRAN versions? It can

I tried to update my package {pracma} on CRAN from 2.4.2 (2022-09-21) to version 2.4.4 (2023-11-08). This package reverse depends / imports / suggests on 350 packages on CRAN and 25 packages on Bioconductor. The only changes are small corrections on some help files, a new function for stereographic projection, and `gcd` and `Lcm` require integer inputs now (these functions are not used in the

Hi I am trying to install the package "pheno", but it needs the package "nprq" by Roger Koenker et al. which I can I find this package?

Hi I know this only affects a small number of subscribers, so I apologize to the "Non Stellenbosch University subscribers" for the noise. Two weeks ago, four R users met and discussed the possibility of forming an interest group of R users at SUN. The interest group (R at SUN) has the aim of: ? Promote the use of R at SUN (Stellenbosch University); ? Organize Hons stats courses using

Hi Dirk, Thanks for the explamnayion - Debian is running in a VM (and nothing really installed on it) , and I think the easiest is for me just to install Debian 10 and to use that one.

Hi I just installed the pastecs package and I am wondering: is there an english (or german) translation of the file pastecs.pdf?

Hi I have a large dataset which follows a multimodal distribution. And I would like to identify the maxima. As the data is obtained from a stochastic simulation, not all maxima in the data are "real maxima of the dirstribution" but rather small random fluctuations. Unfortunately, it is not possible for me to run more simulations to smooth the obtained distribution. What I am doing

Hi I upgraded to R 2.10.0, and I encounter a problem with some packages on R, installed via apt-get.. They are still compiled by 2.9 and give me an warning when I load the packages. Will these packages be recompiled with R 2.10, or should I rather switch to self-compiling? Cheers, Rainer -- Rainer M. Krug, PhD (Conservation Ecology, SUN), MSc (Conservation Biology, UCT), Dipl.

Hi is there an easy and fast way, to generate a BibTeX file of all installed / loaded packages and R? I know about toBibtex(citation()) to extract the BibTeX for a single package, but how can I generate a file containg citations for all installed / loaded packages?

Hi Let's assume, I have a dataset of 1000 datapoints, which represent daily recordings of a measurement. They are stored as a ts object (see example below) Now I want to represent them as a barplot. I found the barplot in the zoo package, but I have one problem: the x-axis labels. I would like to have the x-axis labels as either years only (located at the beginning of the year), or
