similar to: Sys.putenv environment variables disappear (PR#1371)

Environment variables set with Sys.putenv() "disappear" spontaneously (and somewhat randomly) when I load large datasets. This was reported in R-help by Dave Kane on June 4, 2001; I have not seen any further discussion. I'm not sure if I can report it as a "bug", since it is not entirely reproducible. Could someone try this and see if you have trouble too? The following

R> order(1, na.last=NA) Error in apply(sapply(z, is.na), 1, any) : dim(X) must have a positive length This bug appears unrelated to PR#1906, and so the fix of 8/15 doesn't help. It comes from the line inside order(): ok <- !apply(sapply(z, is.na), 1, any) where z=list(1) in my example. sapply() returns a single-element vector, not a matrix, making apply() unhappy. This might

Greetings: I would like comments on this example and after fixing it up, I need help from someone who has access to insert this in R's help page for plotmath. I uploaded a drawing http://pj.freefaculty.org/R/Normal-2009.pdf that is created by the following code http://pj.freefaculty.org/R/Normal1_2009_plotmathExample.R This will be a good addition to the plotmath help page/example.

I'm using R-2.6.2 on Fedora Linux 9. I've been experimenting with plotmath. I wish it were easier to combine expressions in plotmath with values from the R program itself. There are two parameters in the following example, the mean "mymean" and standard deviation "mystd". I am able to use bquote to write elements into the graph title like mu = mymean and R will

The result of rowsum() in R doesn't have the dimnames I'd expect, e.g.: > rowsum(matrix(1:12, 3,4), c("Y","X","Y")) [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] 1 2 5 8 11 2 4 10 16 22 whereas S-Plus gives the more useful result: [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] X 2 5 8 11 Y 4 10 16 22 This is because R's rowsum() code gives the

Dear R users, glm.fit() gave me the same AIC's regardless of TRUE or FALSE intercept option. > myX <- as.matrix(1:10) > myY <- 3+5*myX > foo <- glm.fit(x=myX, y=myY, family = gaussian(link = "identity"), intercept=TRUE) > foo$aic [1] 38.94657 > foo <- glm.fit(x=myX, y=myY, family = gaussian(link = "identity"), intercept=FALSE) > foo$aic [1]

An NA in the rownames of a matrix (or dataframe) causes misalignment when the matrix is printed: R> x <- matrix(1:12, 3,4, dimnames=list(letters[1:3], LETTERS[1:4])) R> rownames(x)[2] <- NA R> x A B C D a 1 4 7 10 <NA> 2 5 8 11 c 3 6 9 12 The bug is in function Rstrlen, in src/main/printutils.c. MatrixRowLabel and MatrixColumnLabel (same file) rely on Rstrlen

Hi All, I have a quick question about using plot.Predict now that the rms package uses lattice. I'd like to add tick marks along the regression line, which is given by data=llist(variablename) in the plot call. The ticks show up fine, but I'd like to alter the color. I know the ticks are produced by scat1d, but after spending a fair bit of time going through documentation, it still

Hi R list, I like the default ticks that are set up using grid.xaxis() or grid.yaxis() with no arguments. Finding good values for the 'at' argument is usually not a trivial task; the default behavior of these functions seems to work well. The problem with this strategy is that I cannot figure out how to "recover" the positions of these ticks when you do NOT specify the

Here's another example of my plotmath whipping boy, the Normal distribution. A colleague asks for a Normal plotted above a series of axes that represent various other distributions (T, etc). I want to use vectors of equations in plotmath to do this, but have run into trouble. Now I've isolated the problem down to a relatively small piece of working example code (below). If you would

I've been testing plotmath. But I'm getting some funny output one one computer. The problem is that characters are 'jumbled' and overstrike when symbols are introduced. Sample code: mu <- 440.0 sigma <- 12.5 myx <- seq( mu - 4*sigma, mu+ 4*sigma, length.out=500) myDensity <- dnorm(myx,mean=mu,sd=sigma) # Here's one way to retrieve the values of mu and sigma and

Dear R users, I have the following data: x <- data.frame( myX = c(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) ) y <- data.frame( myX = c(1,2,3,4,5,6,7) ) How can I get the difference between data frame x and y? In this case, I want to get values 8 and 9 I know in SQL we can use minus operator, but I have no idea how to do so in R. I tried all.equal, diff, and identical, but they don't give me the actual data

Hi, all, I've been converting code from S-Plus ("S" for short) to R for a few weeks. Here are some differences I've found, aside from the big well-known ones (scoping, models, data storage) and the contents of Kurt Hornik's FAQ section 3.3.3. Let me start with the ones that seem like serious bugs or deficiencies: 1) LETTERS[c(NA,2)] in S is

In R-1.5.0pre (2002-04-08) on Solaris 2.6, the window that X11() creates has a title like: R Graphics: Device 2 (ACTIVE) o iyeP )( y except the funny characters at the end have umlauts and other accents (i.e. extended ASCII characters), and they may be different each time X11() is invoked. There is no loss of functionality; it just looks a little ugly. I saw this behavior in R-1.3.?, it

Hello, I tried to call an external function of R from the following code in C++: void prodgdot(double *x, double *y, int *n, double *output) { int i; *output=0; for (i=0;i<*n;i++) { *output+=x[i]*y[i]; } } I compiled it using from my working directory in linux terminal and I think it's ok: giba at giba-desktop:~/mysrc/meus_testes_iniciais$ R CMD SHLIB

The summary stats for the xin and yin variables below are correct. However, if I use plot(xin,yin), an exception is thrown saying that "object xin is not found." Also, it is apparent that I can't successfully replace the x and y vectors with values from xin and yin. The four plots on one panel are showing but the range of x and y is only [0,1], and therefore, it seems like an

Hi, I asked this question 2 years ago, and would like to know if the answer has changed. In S-Plus, I build databases of many large objects. In any given analysis, I only need a few of those objects, but attach'ing the whole database is fine since objects are only read as needed. How can I do the same thing in R, without reading the entire database? One possibility is to treat

Hi, The result of rowsum() in R doesn't have the dimnames I'd expect, e.g.: > rowsum(matrix(1:12, 3,4), c("Y","X","Y")) [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] 1 2 5 8 11 2 4 10 16 22 whereas S-Plus gives the more useful result: [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] X 2 5 8 11 Y 4 10 16 22 This is because R's rowsum() code gives
