Off-Topic: LaTeX package listings
Hola!
I ask here since I learnt from this list that the LaTeX package listings
should be good
for typesetting R code. I encountered one problem:
\begin{lstlisting}
X %*% V
\end{lstlisting}
in the output the * in %*% disappears! same with %/%, etc, the /
disappears.
Any ideas?

Incompatibility with VGAM
I just discovered that when the VGAM package (not on CRAN) is loaded,
glm() doesn't work. This is because VGAM defines a family function()
which gets found
by glm() in place of the family function from stats.
Then VGAM:::family returns an object which doesn't have a $family
component, (it has a component
$vfamily).
I thought namespaces should protect us from this happening?

R-intro
Hello!
I was reading R-intro and I have some suggestions:
R-intro.html#A-sample-session
rm(fm, fm1, lrf, x, dummy)
suggestion
rm(fm, fm1, lrf, x, y, w, dummy)
The next section will look at data from the classical experiment of Michaelson and Morley to measure the speed of light.

FDR analyses: minimum number of features
Dear List,
We are planning a genotyping study to be analyzed using false discovery
rates (FDRs) (See Storey and Tibshirani PNAS 2003; 100:9440-5). I am
interested in learning if there is any consensus as to how many
features (ie. how many P values) need to be studied before reasonably
reliable FDRs can be derived. Does anyone know of a citation where
this is discussed?

as.list.matrix
I found the need of converting a matrix into a list of its columns
(for use with do.call), and was surprised there was no method
as.list.matrix, it could easily be a part of as.list default
I wrote
my.as.list.matrix <- function(mat) {
if(!is.matrix(mat))stop("Argument must be a matrix")
n <- NCOL(mat)

read.spss (package foreign) and character columns
Dear R users!
I am using R Version 1.7.1, Windows XP, package "foreign" (Version: 0.6-1),
SPSS 11.5.1.
There is one thing I noticed with "read.spss", and I'd like to ask if this
is considered to be a feature, or possibly a bug:
When reading character columns, character strings seem to get filled with
blanks at the end.
Simple example:

mixtures as outcome variables
Dear R-users,
I have an outcome variable and I'm unsure about how to treat it. Any
advice?
I have spending data for each county in the state of California (N=58).
Each county has been allocated money to spend on any one of the
following four categories: A, B, C, and D.
Each county may spend the money in any way they see fit. This also means
that the county need not spend all the money that

re ad.spss (foreign) conflict with SPSS 17 files.
SPSS seems to have changed its default datafile format, resulting in issues
for read.spss(). In Windows this results in a warning, in Debian the import
completely fails:
Debian (R version 2.8.0 (2008-10-20) i486-pc-linux-gnu, foreign_0.8-29)

converting factor to numeric
Hola!
The R FAQ says:
7.12 How do I convert factors to numeric?
It may happen that when reading numeric data into R (usually, when
reading in a file), they come in as factors. If f is such a factor
object, you can use
as.numeric(as.character(f))
to get the numbers back. More efficient, but harder to remember, is
as.numeric(levels(f))[as.integer(f)]
In any case, do not call as.numeric()

read.spss (package foreign) and SPSS 15.0 files
Hello,
does anyone have experience with reading SPSS Version 15.0 files into R (version 2.4.1, WinXP)?
I have long been sucessfully reading SPSS files with read.spss from the wonderful foreign package, but somehow after upgrading from SPSS14 to SPSS15 I seem to have problems.
Trying a simple example, where test.sav is a SPSS 15.0 data file consisting of x1=c(1,2,3) and

Removing constants from a data frame

x<-data.frame(v1=1:4, v2=c(2,4,NA,7), v3=rep(1,4),
v4=LETTERS[1:4],v5=rep('Z',4))
or a much larger frame, and I wish to test for and remove the constant
numeric columns.
I made:
is.constant<-function(x){identical(min(x),max(x))}
and
apply(x,2,is.constant) # Works for numerics
x[,-which(apply(x,2,is.constant))]

Minor nuisance with rw1071
Hola!
Starting with rw1071, just after starting Rgui the scope is not with
Rconsole, but some other place. This means I have to do a mouse click
in the Rconsole before starting to write the first command. Since I
always forget this, I end up writing the first command twice.
This is of course only a minor nuisance, but why is focus no longer
set to Rconsole window when start-up?
