Hi everyone, I've run into a bit of strange problem with implicit vs explicit printing and the call stack. I've included an example at the bottom of this email. The basic problem is that I have an S3 object with a print method. When the object is implicitly printed (ie. typed directly into the console) the function arguments in the call stack are exploded out to their actual values,

A problem that I've encountered when using do.call a lot is very large stack traces, eg: f <- function(x) stop() do.call(error, mtcars) traceback() f <- function(x) browser() do.call(f, mtcars) I have hacked together my own version of traceback to fix this by limiting the length of each line to 80 characters, but I can't see any way to do something similar for browser. Any

Hi all, A couple of ideas for improving seq_along: * It would be really useful to have a second argument dim: seq_along(mtcars, 1) seq_along(mtcars, 2) # equivalent to seq_len(dim(mtcars)[1]) seq_len(dim(mtcars)[2]) I often find myself wanting to iterate over the rows or column of a data frame, and there isn't a particularly nice idiom if you want to avoid problems

Would this return a quosure? (i.e. a single sided formula that captures both expression and environment). That's the data structure we've adopted in tidyeval as it already has some built in support.

Hello, I am trying to generate a confidence interval (90 or 95%) of a regression line. This is primarily just for illustration on a scatter plot (i.e. I am trying to make this http://www.ast.cam.ac.uk/~rgm/scratch/statsbook/graphics/anima4.gif). I have been trying to use the predict.lm function, with interval set as "confidence", but this still seems to be giving me a prediction

What do you prefer/recommend for double-banger function names: 1 scale.colour 2 scale_colour 3 scaleColour 1 is more R-like, but conflicts with S3. 2 is a modern version of number 1, but not many packages use it. Number 3 is more java-like. (I like number 2 best) Any suggestions? Thanks, Hadley

Dear useRs, Here is a weird behavior of transform function: mtcars1<-matcars transform(mtcars1,t1=3,t2=4) Error in data.frame(`_data`, e[!matched]) : arguments imply differing number of rows: 32, 1 instead, this works: mtcars1$t1<-0 transform(mtcars1,t1=3,t2=4) also works if applied in turn: transform(mtcars1,t1=3) transform(mtcars1,t2=4) I often need to use this

Hello Everyone, I have recently been introduced to the ggplot package by Hadley Wickham and must say I am quite impressed so far at how easy it is to make attractive plots, but one thing I am struggling over is how to consolidate legends. I have 3 plots that I would like to put on a single page and all 3 map the same dimension of the data to the colour aesthetic. Right now, when I plot all

Hi all, Is there any chance that readRDS and saveRDS might one day become read.rds and write.rds? That would make them more consistent with the other reading and writing functions.

Hi all, Can anyone help me understand why an implicit print (i.e. just typing df at the console), is so much slower than an explicit print (i.e. print(df)) in the example below? I see the difference in both Rstudio and in a terminal. # Construct large df as quickly as possible dummy <- 1:18e6 df <- lapply(1:10, function(x) dummy) names(df) <- letters[1:10] class(df) <-

I am trying to plot a graph but the points on the graph should be different symbols and colors. It should represent what is in the legend. I tried using the points command but this does not work. Is there another command in R that would allow me to use different symbols and colors for the points? Thank you kindly. data(mtcars) plot(mtcars$wt,mtcars$mpg,xlab= "Weight(lbs/1000)",

Hi all, Because str uses the generic version of length and names, it's currently very easy to create objects that break str: a <- structure(list(1:5), class = "a") length.a <- function(x) 2L str(a) b <- structure(list(1:5), class = "b") names.b <- function(x) character() str(b) These are obvious toy examples, but it is a real problem if you want to create

Same thing happens with S3 if you redefine print(). I thought that code was actually calculating the function to call rather than the symbol to use, but apparently not. Shouldn't be too hard to fix. luke On Tue, 30 Jun 2015, Hadley Wickham wrote: > On Tue, Jun 30, 2015 at 2:20 PM, Duncan Murdoch > <murdoch.duncan at gmail.com> wrote: >> On 30/06/2015 1:57 PM, Hadley

Suppose you have a vector of data in x and response values in y. How do you plot together both the points (x,y) and the curve that results from the fitted model, if the model is not y ~ x, but a higher order polynomial, e.g. y~poly(x,2)? (In other words, abline doesn't work for this case.) Thanks, --Paul -- Paul Lynch Aquilent, Inc. National Library of Medicine (Contractor)
