I've noticed a change in the way grep() behaves between the 1.9.0 release and a recent R-patched. On 1.9.0 I get the following output: > x <- dget(file = url("http://www.biostat.jhsph.edu/~rpeng/names.R")) > length(grep("^l\\w+tmean", x, perl = TRUE, value = TRUE)) [1] 84 And on R-patched (2004-06-11) I get > x <- dget(file =

Are the functions 'R_Unserialize' and 'R_InitFileInPStream' allowed to be used in R packages? I guess I'm just not clear on the implications of this comment in 'Rinternals.h': /* The connection interface is not yet available to packages. To allow limited use of connection pointers this defines the opaque pointer type. */ I have a function in the

After upgrading to R-2.3.1 on Linux Redhat, I was suprised by this: R> x <- c(721.077, 592.291, 372.208, 381.182) R> sum(x) - 2066.758 [1] 4.547474e-13 Now I understand that floating point arithmetic is not precise, but 1) the result is exactly 0 in R-2.2.1 (patched) on the same machine, 2) .Machine$double.eps = 2.2e-16, so the error seems quite large. Also note I get the same

When I build R-devel (or the alpha snapshots) on a system without makeinfo >= 4.7, I get a warning about not being able to build HTML/Info help pages after running 'configure' (but 'make' runs smoothly and there are no errors). However, when I run 'make install' I get an error, something like make[2]: Entering directory

Wandering in R archives, and seeing the message attached below, I noticed that: mapply(rep,times=1:4, MoreArgs=42) still segfaults on R 2.2.0, and thought I should be a good citizen and report it, even if I do not have an actual problem

I've noticed something recently in R-beta that has changed since R 2.4.1 and I'm not sure if it's a readline problem or an R problem. I am on a Linux FC5 system and in R 2.4.1 I could do load("my-directory/ and then hit TAB and it would list all of the files in 'my-directory', after which I could start typing the beginning of the file, hit TAB again, and it would

I've noticed what I think is curious behavior in using 'sub(fixed = TRUE)' and was wondering if my expectation is incorrect. Here is one example: v <- paste(0:10, "asdf", sep = ".") sub(".asdf", "", v, fixed = TRUE) The results I get are > sub(".asdf", "", v, fixed = TRUE) [1] "0"

As far as I can tell, 'isOpen' cannot return FALSE in the case when 'rw = ""'. If the connection has already been closed by 'close' or some other function, then isOpen will produce an error. The problem is that when isOpen calls 'getConnection', the connection cannot be found and 'getConnection' produces an error. The check to see if it is

In R 1.9.0 on Solaris/Sparc when I run, for example, install.packages("gregmisc", "~/R-local/lib"), instead of installing the `gregmisc' package in the directory /users/student/rpeng/R-local/lib the package gets installed in /users/student/rpeng/\~/R-local/lib, so the directory \~ is created in my home directory. This doesn't happen to me on Linux or Windows so I

cut.Date and cut.POSIXt indicate that the breaks argument can be an integer followed by a space followed by "year", etc. but it seems the integer is ignored. For example, I assume that breaks = "3 months" is supposed to cut it into quarters but, in fact, it cuts it into months as if 3 had not been there. > d <- seq(Sys.Date(), length = 12, by = "month") >

I've noticed recently that 'update.packages' and 'install.packages' seem to not do tilde expansion anymore, i.e. when I run update.packages("~/R-local/lib") on R-alpha (r41043) I get the message /home/rpeng/install/R-alpha/lib64/R/bin/INSTALL: line 304: cd: ~/R-local/lib: No such file or directory and the package is subsequently installed in the current working

I have written a function to plot data which will be used for various different chemistries. A simplified version is: plot_data <- function(risk,levels,chem,sd2,measure){ plot(risk, levels,main=paste ("per", sd2, measure, "\n in usual", chem)) } The problem is with the title. This works fine if the variable "chem" is just text, but if it is an expression then

I have modified the parameters for a function (for my own use) in the stats package, but I assume I need to update the parameter set in another file as I'm getting the following error when I run R: The compile works fine so I assume there is a configuration file in the base package of R that needs modification.

Hence the recursion uses to be infinite (from "." to "." to "." ......). If recursiv = TRUE,

All, Does anyone know if there is an option I can set to turn screen-buffered output on and off with the win32 rgui? (Apart from the point and click method). I am running some simulations where it is useful to watch output but it gets mildly tiresome having to manually switch things on and off via the gui.

I was sitting in the coffee room at work listening to people complain about a recent seminar about nanotechnology using the terms nanofluidics, nanofactory, nano-this, and nano-that ...

Could anyone advise me how to allocate 1.5Gbyte memory for R on a Dell laptop running XP professional with 2G memory? I have tried "C:\Program Files\R\rw1081\bin\Rgui.exe" --max-vsize=1400M but I only get only 500MB for R actually. I also tried memory.limit(2^30) in R and got error of: Error in memory.size(size) : cannot decrease memory limit Yi-Xiong
