Hi, I am new to R and I'm looking to perform some method comparison analysis and would be grateful for some help regarding package installation.

I have tried numerous approaches but to no avail. this is the first time I have tried to

All, I'm running R v2.7.1 on Mac OS X. When I go to the R package installer GUI, I am not prompted to select a repository. The usual screen is there but the columns for package, installed version, and repository version are all populated via blank entries. If I select "Get List" the error below occurs. The same thing occurs if I go form the command line via install.packages.

I cannot access internet through R. My IT-guys told me that I should set the proxy and the port and then everything will be fine. Where can I set them? I use R 2.6.2 under Windows 2000 and these settings are those of the Internet Explorer (no password). I read http://cran.at.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/rw-FAQ.html#The-Internet-download-functions-fail_002e but staring R by "C:\Program

Hello everyone, I get (reproducible) segfaults when I try to update my packages, and was wondering whether anyone knows why this might be happening. I am trying to update my packages: 1. I start R via sudo in a terminal 2. I type update.packages() - a Tcl/Tk list pops up, I select a mirror 3. R segfaults. Maybe I need to update to a newer version of R or something? Slightly OT, but does anyone

Dear all, I installed my R-2.9.2 on my ubuntu version 9.04 successfully using the command sudo apt-get install r-base-dev The problem is that I cannot install any package.

Dear R-Users, I'm trying to setup a personal repository for a few packages I'm working on. I am on R-Forge but I still need to have various versions of my package that R-Forge does not build (for R 2.8.1 for example). So I followed the instructions in this document: Hhttp:// cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-admin.html#Setting-up-a-package-repository and used this function as

Dear WizaRds, I wrote a small function in R and would like to create a package. The necessary documentation is done, Rtools etc. are installed and I am still unable to complete the process under Windows. I did extensive research in the archives and read the Murdoch-Sutherland website on the Rtools and MikTeX hints. I realize that I understand only half or less of what is said there

Hi, I'm writing a package called rNMR and I'd like to be able to save a workspace with rNMR loaded, exit R, and then load the workspace, loading rNMR at the same time. This is no problem on Windows but on Linux and Macs I can't get it to work. Here's the deal. rNMR has includes a .onLoad function: .onLoad = function(lib,pkg){ print("rNMR version 1.0") } and

Dear list (re-posting from r-help as r-devel is probably more appropriate), I was able to successfully compile R on our AIX box at work using the GNU compilers following the instructions on the R Administration guide. The output can be seen at here (https://gist.github.com/nguyenvinh/504321ea9c89d8919bef) and yields no errors . However, I get a segfault whenever I try to use the

Hi, useRs- I have been building a set of functions over time and now my R_GlobalEnv becomes too crowded. I would like to put all my functions under the same namespace/environment. Ideally, I would like to call them using "env::func" as in C++. The following code almost do the jobs I want - except that I need to add "env$" before defining each function. I can't do

Dear All: I have a question regarding the behavior of functions. Say I define a function that returns another function : A <- function(parameters) { # calculations w/ parameters returning 'y' tmpf <- function(x) { # function of 'y' } return(tmpf) } The value of the parameters are stored in an environment local to the function. Then I call x<- something

I tend to use the same tool-chain across various hosts so I made this very simple patch that allows you to pass the cross-compiler name to make ( e.g. make CROSS_COMPILE=i686-nptl-linux-gnu-). I'm not sure if patches should be attached or just pasted inline so I did both this time. BTW, it's relative to syslinux 4 but the same changes work with syslinux 3 although the patch won't

Dear List, The following code produces a list, which is what I what: set.seed(123) tmpf <- function() { x <- rpois(rpois(1,4),2) } n <- 3 m <- replicate(n,tmpf()) m [[1]] [1] 3 2 4 [[2]] [1] 0 2 4 2 2 5 2 [[3]] [1] 2 0 4 1 0 Now I need something that would to extract iteratively (or as many times as the size of 'n') the values that are greater than 2 in each component of
