Hello: How can I work around the conflict between the S3 and S4 illustrated in the example below? I'm developing a package that requires a function in 'stats4', but when 'stats4' is attached, it breaks my AIC function. I could give my AIC function another name so it no longer uses the generic dispatch, but I wonder if there is another way. Thanks,

Most of my animations that used to work on windows() version 2.11.1 and earlier now flash as if the double buffering is turned off or buffer swapping is triggered by other events than in the past. The simplified example below using symbols should illustrate the problem in a windows environment. windows() radius <- 8 n <- 6 ang <- seq(0,2*pi,length=n+1)[-(n+1)] ca <- cos(ang) sa

Hello: What do you suggest I do to overcome "LaTeX Error: File 'inconsolata.sty' not found", which I got running "R CMD check" on a package using Rtools I downloaded yesterday? I found a similar question to R-Help Nov. 3 (URL below), but I've not yet had success in replicating the solution outlined there. I tried several different sets of

Hello All: I'm still unable to get Rprofile.site to set, e.g., options(max.print=222), as I did with previous versions of R. I just found similar questions posed by Trevor Miles and Ross Bowden with replies by Uwe Ligges and Duncan Murdoch. In addition to the things I tried documented below, I also copied Rprofile.site into "R_HOME/etc/i386" and

Dear R-developers, A student asked me today of how to specify the limits of the x-axis. I knew that he should use xlim, but I tried to encourage him to have a try himself with the various help functions. I do not judge if he used the correct search strategy or right key words, but anyway here is what he tried: he looked at ?plot. There xlim is not mentioned. He checked ?par. There you find

Using R 2.5.1 on Windows XP Professional, and PBSmapping package version 2.51, I have encountered some behavior which puzzles me. I am including the package's listed maintainer on this email but also seek the thoughts of the R-help community. I have a set of EventData, which I want to plot as points, and to color the points according to some criterion. It turns out that some of my

Hello, All: The "writeFindFn2xls" function in the "sos" package tries to write an Excel file with 3 sheets ('PackageSum2', 'findFn', 'call'). Unfortunately, it is often unable to do this because of configuration problems that are not easy to fix. I've found 3 contributed packages that provide facilities to write Excel files with

Suppose I have data such as the following set.seed(12345) tmp <- data.frame(var1 = rnorm(100), var2 = rnorm(100), var3=rnorm(100, 10, 30)) tmp1 <- data.frame(vars = with(tmp, c(var1, var2, var3)), type = gl(3, 100)) var3 is on a different scale, but I create the following plot, which looks terrible as a result bwplot(~ vars|type, tmp1, layout = c(1,3), ) Of course, I can

How can one interrupt the following gracefully: while(TRUE){ Sys.sleep(1) } In R2.11.1 under Emacs+ESS, some sequence of ctrl-g, ctrl-c eventually worked for me. Under Rgui 2.11.1, the only way I've found was to kill R. Suggestions on something more graceful? Beyond this, what would you suggest to update a real-time report when new data arrives in a certain

Hello, All: If I use LazyData with the Ecdat package on R-Forge, "R CMD check" reports "no visible binding for global variable 'nonEnglishNames'", where 'nonEnglishNames' is a dataset in Ecdat used as the default argument for a function. With LazyData, that NOTE disappears. However, then I get, "Warning: objects 'Hstarts',

Hi, All: How do I get information about the "R CMD check / build / install" process, especially regarding what software to install and how to configure it under Windows XP?

Hello: The example "integrate(dnorm,0,20000)" says it "fails on many systems". I just got 0 from it, when I should have gotten either an error or something close to 0.5.

Hi, All: Is there a way to identify whether any users are using a particular package in a shared network R installation? I ask, because we have such a multiple-user installation and when I tried to install a package using Rgui that was in use by Rterm on a single-user installation, 'install.packages' deleted the existing package but failed to install the new version;
