I've noticed that the arguments and result list of prcomp in the mva package (with 61.1) are not quite the same as in the Blue Book and in Splus. Is this intentional or can I change it? If I change it who should I send the code to? Paul Gilbert -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-devel mailing list -- Read

I am trying to get our database interface (PADI) working with R. The code does some memory allocation and for Splus there is an ifdef which controls whether malloc or S_alloc is called. I did nm R.binary | grep alloc to see if this was supported and I find there are some choices: [2490] | 446036| 272|FUNC |GLOB |0 |7 |R_alloc [806] | 693956| 312|FUNC |LOCL |0 |7

In an effort to encapsulate my dependence on class in order to deal with oldclass/class in Splus I defined the functions tfclass <- class "tfclass<-" <- function(x, value){ class(x) <- value ; x } and also the function classed <- function(x, cls) {class(x) <- cls; x} This last allows me to end a function definition with ... classed(somecalc,

"[<-" in R 0.63 does not appear to strip attributes, whereas Splus and previous versions of R did.

I need the function all.equal which is in Splus but not yet in R. Below is a first cut. Comments would be appreciated.

I have a problem with my dynamically loaded code in R not finding pow_ii, which for some time I thought was because library f2c is not on my Sparcstation. However, I have now been experiencing the same problem in Linux, with all the proper libraries in place. My incomplete understanding of elf and shared libraries does not help, but when compiling a complete program I usually muddle through.

I just tried to load r-devel (using rsync -r rsync.r-project.org::r-devel) and I get "operation not permitted" when I try ./configure. It appears the permissions and sticky bits are messed up again.

> R code works but the shared objects built from fortran code do not find > the appropriate libs with functions like __pow_ii or __epx at runtime. I used to have endless trouble with __pow_ii which as I recall could be be fixed by the correct incantation of the mix of compiler libraries and LD_LIBRARY_PATH. It seemed to be extremely sensitive and never easy to get right. The problem is

I would like to write data so that I can re-read it and reproduce results, preferably in both R and Splus. In the past when I have done this my data has been relatively simple and I've just scan()ed it. Now I have a fairly complicated structure I would like to preserve and I've been trying to use dput and dget. Is there a better way? If not, the following truncation by dput, which I

I've sometimes thought it would be useful to have another mail list called "no I haven't read the documentation but someone can save me a lot of time," or perhaps just "newbie" for short. This can be very useful for people just getting started in R and with school starting soon I expect the help list may become overwhelmed. Of course, I think that people should read all

I've been trying to build a bundle with the R-devel snapshot from yesterday. (Yes I know it is unstable and just tell me if I shouldn't be trying to do this yet.)

What is the Rd file alias and usage syntax for an S4 assignment method?

Perhaps this is not a bug but rather my misunderstanding of lty and col.
