Hi, Lately my Latex engine used for checking packages stop working, and I can not figure out how to fix it. When creating my package (caMassClass) I get the * checking caMassClass-manual.tex ... ERROR LaTeX errors when creating DVI version. This typically indicates Rd problems. message. I look in caMassClass-manual.log file and find ! LaTeX Error: File `Rd.sty' not found.

Hi, I was playing with Mandelbrot sets and come up with the following code, I thought I would share: library(fields) # for tim.colors library(caTools) # for write.gif m = 400 # grid size C = complex( real=rep(seq(-1.8,0.6, length.out=m), each=m ), imag=rep(seq(-1.2,1.2, length.out=m), m ) ) C = matrix(C,m,m) Z = 0 X = array(0, c(m,m,20)) for (k in 1:20) { Z =

Hi, Today, I performed automatic updates of packages and somehow lost "class" package. I loaded a library that depended on it and got: Error: package 'class' could not be loaded In addition: Warning message: there is no package called 'class' in: library(pkg, character.only = TRUE, logical = TRUE, lib.loc = lib.loc) I tried to load it by instal-package: class (VR) and

Hi, I am trying to write a function to read in a whole text file as a single string ( so I can calculate its "sha1" hash function using package "digest"). I need a single string containing the whole file, and so far I was using paste(readLines(fileName), collapse = ""). Unfortunately this function gives me warnings : incomplete final line found by readLines on

Hi, I am looking for functions that would allow me to access raw binary data of R vectors. One way would be to use: x = (1:10)*pi writeBin(x, "temp.bin") r = readBin("temp.bin", "raw", n=length(x)*8) Other to write my own C code. Is there any other simpler way? I this message is a rewording of my yesterday message "Looking for function for Double to

Hi, I suddenly started getting strange errors while working on my caTools package: >RCMD install C:/programs/R/rw2011/src/library/caTools ...... preparing package caTools for lazy loading Error in file(file, "r", encoding = encoding) : all connections are in use Execution halted make: *** [lazyload] Error 1 *** Installation of caTools failed *** I searched

Hi, I run into a problem with "R CMD Rd2dvi" command: it gives me "File `Rd.sty' not found" error (See the output message on the bottom). I get the same error when running "RCMD check". My system is: Windows 2000, R version 2.0.1, MiKTeX version 2.4. I do have a Rd.sty file in R_HOME/share/texm directory. I looked through newsgroups for any related discussions

Hi, I run into following problem. It seems to me that operation in the 3rd line should be valid. > b = matrix(as.raw(0), 8,8) > q = as.raw(1:8) > b[1,] = q Error: incompatible types in subset assignment > length(b[1,]) [1] 8 > typeof(b[1,]) [1] "raw" > length(q) [1] 8 > typeof(q) [1] "raw" Is this a bug or a "feature"?

Hi, I need to split a string into 2 strings, with the split point defined by the last occurrence of some substring. I come up with some convoluted code to do so: str = "Chance favors the prepared mind" sub = "e" y = unlist(strsplit(str,sub)) z = cbind(paste(y[-length(y)], sub, sep="", collapse = ""), y[length(y)]); y z z[1] z[2] Is there a simpler way

Hi, Consider the following code: require(XML) xmlFile = paste( "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"ISO-8859-1\"?>\n", "<mzXML xmlns=\"a\" xmlns:xsi=\"b\" xsi:schemaLocation=\"c\">\n", "<parentFile a=\"a\" b=\"b\" />\n",

Hi, I am trying to debug my code and looking for any tool to help me out with it. My main problem is with the error messages I can not figure out where they come from (what function produced them) and what do they mean. Is there such a think as list of error messages produced by R and standard R packages, and what do they mean? Or any tool to extract information which function produced the

Hi, I have a C code which produces array of integers and potentially a string, and I have problems passing the string out. Here is the relevant part of the code: 1 PROTECT(Ret = allocVector(INTSXP, n)); 2 ret = (int*) INTEGER(Ret); /* get pointer to R's Ret */ 3 for(i=0; i<n; i++) ret[i] = data[i]; 4 Free(data); 5 i=1; 6 if (comment) { // comment was found 7 n

Hi, A minor announcement. I just added two functions for reading and writing GIF files to my caTools package. Input and output is in the form of standard R matrices or arrays, and standard R color-maps (palettes). The functions can read and write both regular GIF images, as well as, multi-frame animated GIFs. Most of the work is done in C level code (included), so functions do not use any

Hi, The latest version of R had some changes to functions "readbin() and writeBin() [which] now support raw vectors as well as filenames and connections.". As a result I am working on retiring "raw2bin" and "bin2raw" functions from "caTools" package which do exactly the same. Thanks to Prof. Ripley for bringing this change to my attention. Which brings me

Hi, I am looking for a way to search a file for position of some expression, from within R. My current code: sha1Pos = gregexpr("<sha1>", readChar(filename, file.info(filename)$size))[[1]] Works fine for small files, but text files I will be working with might get up to Gb range, so I was trying to accomplish the same without loading the whole file into R. I realize this is

Hi, Consider the following example: sort(10:1, partial=3) ## 1 2 3 7 6 5 4 8 9 10 sort(10:1, index=T) ## $x: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 ## $ix: 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 sort(10:1, partial=3, index=T) ## 1 2 3 7 6 5 4 8 9 10 The first 2 calls gave expected returns; however, the third one did not returned an index as requested. I could not find anything about it in

Hi, I am trying to write a package(A) for myself and need to use a function from another package(B) which is in R already(need to install it before use). Could anyone tell me how to implement that? Also I hope that my package gives an ERROR message(something like "STOP, please install package B first") if the package B is not installed yet. It is my first time to write a package. Thanks

Hi, A new version of "caMassClass" package was released today. The package contain pipeline for processing and classification of protein mass spectra data. The main change is off-spinning from the library collection of generic functions into a new package "caTools". This package, which might be useful to broader group, is much smaller than "caMassClass" and has fewer
