similar to: replacing characters in matrix. substitute, delayedAssign, huh?

Hello, ?delayedAssign presents substitute() as a way to look at the expression in the promise. However, msg <- "old" delayedAssign("x", msg) msg <- "new!" x #- new! substitute(x) #- x (was 'msg' ?) Here, we just got 'x'... shouldn't we got 'msg'? Same result when the promise is not evaluated yet: delayedAssign("x",

The help files for delayedAssign and substitute both say that substitute() can be used to see the expression associated with a promise. However, I can't see how to do that. When I try the example in help file for delayedAssign I don't see substitute() extracting the promise, e.g.: > msg <- "old" > delayedAssign("x", msg) > msg <-

Duncan, Thank you for the clarification on how delayedAssign works. Should R-level interfaces to promise objects ever become available, I expect they would at time come in handy. On the subject of substitute and delayedAssign, I do have a follow-up question for the list. I'm trying to convert a named list of expression objects into an environment of promise objects. After conversion, each

I'm not sure if this is a known peculiarity or a bug, but I stumbled across what I think is very odd behavior from delayedAssign. In the below example x switches values the first two times it is evaluated. > delayedAssign("x", {x <- 2; x+3}) > x==x [1] FALSE > delayedAssign("x", {x <- 2; x+3}) > x [1] 5 > x [1] 2 The ?delayedAssign documentation says

I noticed something recently that I thought was odd: delayedAssign("x", { Sys.sleep(5); 1 }) x ## Hit Ctrl-C within the first second or 2 gives me: > delayedAssign("x", { Sys.sleep(5); 1 }) > x ## Hit Ctrl-C within the first second or two > x Error: recursive default argument reference > My only problem here is that now I'm stuck---there's no way

The last two lines of example(delayedAssign) give this: > e <- (function(x, y = 1, z) environment())(1+2, "y", {cat(" HO! "); pi+2}) > (le <- as.list(e)) # evaluates the promises $x <promise: 0x032b31f8> $y <promise: 0x032b3230> $z <promise: 0x032b3268> which contrary to the comment appears unevaluated. Is the comment wrong or is it supposed to

Hi R-experts I have many text files to read and combined them into one into R that are output from other programs. My textfile have unbalanced number of rows for example: ;this is example ; r help Var1 Var2 Var3 Var4 Var5 0 0.05 0.01 12 1 0.04 0.06 18 A 2 0.05 0.08 14 3 0.01 0.06

Dear All Sorry for this simple question, I could not solve it by spending days. My data looks like this: # data set.seed(1234) clvar <- c( rep(1, 10), rep(2, 10), rep(3, 10), rep(4, 10)) # I have 100 level for this factor var; yvar <- rnorm(40, 10,6); var1 <- rnorm(40, 10,4); var2 <- rnorm(40, 10,4); var3 <- rnorm(40, 5, 2); var4 <- rnorm(40, 10, 3); var5 <- rnorm(40, 15,

Dear all, I am trying (!!!) to generate pdfs that have 8 plots on one page: df = data.frame( day = c(1,2,3,4), var1 = c(1,2,3,4), var2 = c(100,200,300,4000), var3 = c(10,20,300,40000), var4 = c(100000,20000,30000,4000), var5 = c(10,20,30,40), var6 = c(0.001,0.002,0.003,0.004), var7 = c(123,223,123,412), var8 = c(213,123,234,435), all = as.factor(c(1,1,1,1)))

Hi R users, I have a question about plotting. The following two datasets are an example. What I have in mind is like the attached figure, but just have two rows, top row is for DF1, bottom row is for DF2. The top and bottom rows, have x-axis as var1, var2, var3, etc, while the y-axis represents A. For each row, only the leftmost panel has y-axis ticks and label. For the two rows, only the bottom

Dear everyone, I have looked all over the internet but I cannot find a way to solve my problem. In my data I want to sum a couple of variables. Some of these variables have NA values, and when I add them together, the result is NA dat <- data.frame( id = gl(5,1), var1 = rnorm(5, 10), var2 = rnorm(5, 7), var3 = rnorm(5, 6), var4 = rnorm(5, 3), var5 = rnorm(5, 8) ) dat[3,3] <- NA dat[4,5]

Hi, I am using R 1.9.1 on on i686 PC with SuSE Linux 9.0. I have a data.frame, e.g.: > myData <- data.frame( var1 = c( 1:4 ), var2 = c (5:8 ) ) If I add a new column by > myData$var3 <- myData[ , "var1" ] + myData[ , "var2" ] everything is fine, but if I omit the commas: > myData$var4 <- myData[ "var1" ] + myData[ "var2" ] the name

Hi, Suppose I have a data.frame like this Lines <- "var1 var2 var3 var4 var5 var6 0 2 1 2 0 0 2 3 7 6 0 1 1.5 4 9 9 6 0 1.0 6 10 22 3 3 " DF <- read.table(textConnection(Lines), skip=1) names(DF) <- scan(textConnection(Lines), what = "", nlines = 1) How do I find the

Let say, I have a matrix with 8 rows and 6 columns:  >  df1  <- matrix(NA, 8, 4)  > df1       [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4]  [1,]   NA   NA   NA   NA  [2,]   NA   NA   NA   NA  [3,]   NA   NA   NA   NA  [4,]   NA   NA   NA   NA  [5,]   NA   NA   NA   NA  [6,]   NA   NA   NA   NA  [7,]   NA   NA   NA   NA  [8,]   NA   NA   NA   NA  Now I want to get **all possible** ways to fetch 6 cells at a

I try it again Dear R Users! I have a dataframe with duplicatecases. Var1 duplicated by var2. var1 var2 var3 var4 var5 1 4 500 1 2 1 3 200 2 5 1

I have a dataframe called "data" with 5 records (in rows) each of which has been scored on each of many variables (in columns). Five of the variables are named var1, var2, var3, var4, var5 using headers. The other variables are named using other conventions. I can create a new variable called var6 with the value 15 for each record with this code: > var6=var1+var2+var3+var4+var5
