I am trying to install Rpy to test it out as an R interface for a project that I am working on. However, I get the following error. Any clues as to what might be going on? I have alo tried RSPython, but I gave up due to errors. RSPython segfaults when started from R and gives an error message I can;t remember from python. Thanks, Brett >>> import rpy Traceback (most recent call

Hi, I'm planning to write some code in Python using R functions. I'm aware of the two R<->Python packages - Rpy and RSPython. Rpy seems easier to get up and running with, but does anybody have any comments regarding which would be a better system to work with in the long run? Thanks, ------------------------------------------------------------------- Rajarshi Guha <rxg218 at

I am a long time user of R for financial time series analysis (xts, zoo, etc) and for my next project I am thinking of adding the Python language to the mix. The reason for adding Python is primarily its non-statistical capabilities. So my questions are what have people's experiences been with using interop between R and Python. I see there are two items, rPy and RSPython. It looks like rPy

Hello, I don't know if this question ought to go here, or rather on R-devel, so please bear with me. I'm interfacing to R via RPy (rpy.sf.net) and an embedded Python interpreter. This is really quite convenient. I use this approach to calculate the correlation coefficient of 1 independent dataset (vector) with 4 dependent vectors. It'd be nice if that could be done in 4 parallel

Hello. I'm not a regular subscriber in this mailing list, but I think that this announce may interest somebody. Please, forgive me if this is the wrong place. Based on the code of RSPython, but modifying it a little, I wrote an interface for using R from Python. The main reason for writing it was to make it robust, in order to avoid segmentation faults. Also, it is (IMMO) a very

I put a copy of R 1.8.1 for Windows on our FTP site at: ftp://ftp.odot.state.or.us/outgoing/Test/. It should be there for a few days before it gets deleted.

Hello, My platform is SuSE 8.1. After downloading and unpacking R version 1.7 I tried building with shared libs enabled. (./configure --enabl-R-shlib). My goal is to use RSPython but I am now in my own private segmentation fault hell. The R build worked fine: make, make check, make install cool. The RSPython build worked fine. Thinking I'm good to go, I run python. But when I import RS

A question for a (experienced) user of the RPython package on linux. I'm trying to call R from python on a linux (Suse 7.3) box. After installing R CMD INSTALL -c RSPython_0.5-2.tar.gz I start python and do: >>> import sys >>> sys.path.append('/usr/local/lib/R/library/RSPython') >>> sys.path.append('/usr/local/lib/R/library/RSPython/Python')

Hi, I'm running Ubuntu Jaunty, downloading R and Rpy from this repository: deb http://cran.uk.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu jaunty/ When was automatically upgraded, Rpy (which should be downloaded from the same repository) seems to have stopped working. I've tried re-installing the python-rpy package manually. I get the following error when I try to import rpy: >>> import

Hi CRAN people, There is an issue with python-rpy on Ubuntu, when installed from the CRAN repository. (I read the info on http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/ and saw the note that this package is experimental but you are happy to receive feedback on it.) After adding the appropriate CRAN repo: % sudo apt-get install python-rpy [ ... installs various dependencies ... ] % echo import rpy |

Hello All, I've been using R for a while and decided to test R from the svn trunk. I know that trunk is not stable, but I wanted to see if I can install and run the latest rpy on my Ubuntu 7.10 box. It installed ok, but I got the runtime error message: $ python Python 2.5.1 (r251:54863, Mar 7 2008, 04:10:12) [GCC 4.1.3 20070929 (prerelease) (Ubuntu 4.1.2-16ubuntu2)] on linux2 Type

Hi. On all of my machines, except for a netbook cursed with the GMA500 chipset, the R packages are synced to lenny-cran. I have been using rpy in a chroot using the official lenny R packages (2.7.1) given that i have not been able to find compatible rpy deb packages to work with lenny-cran. I am able to build the rpy deb package from source in a 32-bit lenny chroot (with the stock R packages)

I'm curious if there are users of RPy on this list. I've recently created a gui front end using Tkinter for some python scripts I've written for some of our internal operations and I am quite pleased with how this program works. I wonder if it is possible to also get this gui to run R functions through the use of RPy. Going even a step further, I wonder if it is possible to get this

Right now, I am using SAS and S+/R. As a new year resolution, I am planning to learn a scripting language. from statisticians' point of view, which scripting language is worth to learn, perl, python, or any other recommendation? (Most likely, I will be learning it in windows.) Since I am not in research, I will prefer one widely used in industry and related to statistical work. if you

Recorded here so others may avoid my mistakes. I have a bunch of files containing fixed width data. The R Data guide suggests that one pre-process them with a script if they are large. They were 50MG and up, and I needed to process another file that gave the layout of the lines anyway. I tried rpy to not only preprocess but create the R data object in one go. It seemed like a good idea; it

I develop quite a bit of R code that I tend to distribute, or let other people embed in their software. One of the things I'd really like to do is find a way to load an R library I've developed, and call one function with arguments. Currently, I achieve that by building a separate R client file, which reads in the command line arguments, loads the library, and calls the main
