similar to: slight anomaly in formals<- ? (PR#9758)

Hi, I wonder if the following (apparent) inconsistency is a bug or feature. Since scalars are simply vectors of length one I would think that a and a:a produce the same result. For example, > identical(4.01,4.01:4.01) [1] TRUE However, identical(4,4:4) [1] FALSE and > identical(4.0,4.0:4.0) [1] FALSE A closer look reveals that the colon operator produces objects

Bringing up an old topic on a small technicality. In the help documentation on seq. Value: The result is of 'mode' '"integer"' if 'from' is (numerically equal to an) integer and 'by' is not specified. The arguement in seq specifying length also creates "double" which is not obvious in the wording, as "by" is not specified

Thanks for the report, I am testing a patch that will allow multi-line arguments to user macros.

Thanks, I was just coming to that conclusion and beginning to look for a way to make a list of exportable objects.

After library(quantreg), ls("package:quantreg") will list all the names you currently export. So cat(ls("package:quantreg"), sep = ", ") will print the list in a form suitable for including

While on the topic of Rd macro arguments, it seems that if a multiline argument is supplied, the lines after the first are silently ignored: f <- tempfile() mac6 <- "\\newcommand{\\mac6}{mac6: #1}" cat(mac6, "\\mac6{2*3 2+2 sin(pi) }\n", file = f) rd <- tools::parse_Rd(f) > rd mac6: 2*3 --- Georgi Boshnakov -----Original Message----- From: Tomas Kalibera

Abby, my answer was too concise. The thrust is that even if you define a method for "[<-" with signature x="matrix" and value ="Matrix", for example, it will never be used since "matrix" is S3. If instead x="someS4class" then the S4 method will be invoked. There may be cases when changing the class of the left-hand side make sense (such as

Is it possible to consider adding .emacs.desktop and .emacs.desktop.lock to files ignored by R CMD build?

The documentation shells created by the utility functions for classes and methods contain section "Methods". Due to a slight difference in the layout and the underlying Rd code, function signatures are wrapped on the following line (if necessary) in the "methods" section in a class description (xxx-class.Rd) but not in xxx.-methods.Rd. As a result long signatures may

Dear developers, I have a small but more or less well defined inquiry. Another, more general one for which I was not able to find information is towards the end of this messages. The question seems to be too technical for R-help, that is why I post it here. When installing packages (Windows XP), occasionally the installation does not complete because, it seems, Windows locks some files.

Thanks for the report and the examples - and they do not have to be that verbose, it is enough to just define and use a command, e.g. cat("\\newcommand{\\mac1}{MAC1:#1}\\mac1{}", file=f) rd <- tools::parse_Rd(f) Whenever you get an error message like "Value of SET_STRING_ELT() must be a 'CHARSXP' not a 'NULL'", there is a bug (at least the error message

wholeSrcref attribute is documented in ?parse to be the source reference corresponding to the already parsed text. The implementation in the parser matches the documentation - the code stops at the last byte/character of the expression, that is, on the closing brace - which is the "already parsed text". I think this works as documented (also source() uses the current implementation

Yes, that is exactly the problem.? The code found in the "config" script is never run.? But why doesn't it get run?

Georgi, Brilliant, thank you very much for the helpful reply and explanation! I added 'importFrom("Matrix","as.matrix")' to my NAMESPACE and all worked fine! As my 'as.matrix' method is used entirely internally to the 'testmat' function (and not "used outside the package"), I don't think I actually need to export it. In my case, testmat is

With 0.63.3, try test <- function(){ fn <- function(a) print("hello") print(is.function(fn)) print(names(formals("fn")))} test() if fn is not quoted in the last line of test, it works properly. test <- function(){ fn <- function() print("hello") formals(fn) <- alist(a=,b=) return(fn)} formals(test()) now try with line 3 of test changed to

I've been comparing variables among objects (taxa) related by known trees, using phylogentically independent contrasts in the ape package, and want to move on to more complex models e.g. by using gls with appropriate correlation terms. My trees contain lots of (hard) polytomies and information about ancestors, which I've been including- creating fully dichotomous trees by using zero branch

Hi, The result of as,character() on 'srcref' objects doesn't have the closing ')' in some cases involving 'quote': > e4 <- quote({2+2}) > class(attr(e4, "wholeSrcref")) [1] "srcref" > as.character(attr(e4, "wholeSrcref")) [1] "e4 <- quote({2+2}" As a result printing the object also lacks it and gives an
