similar to: parse() does not complain for not finished strings?

This only happens if 'file' is a text connection, and is the expected behaviour in that case: you cannot capture an incomplete line to a text connection. There seems no reason to break the documented behaviour in other cases to change something that you consider to a bug when file=NULL and the user does not produce complete output. It would be possible to make use of isIncomplete()

Hi gurus, After an unsuccessful scrabble through the documentation and Jon's excellent search facility, I am no wiser as to how R recognizes an incomplete command line and politely raises its hand for more. The help page for parse gives no indication that it does anything more than spit the dummy when fed an incomplete command line, but something in there must recognize such ellipsis.

I need some guidance on what is the best way to automate R I am aware of Rterm. First question: Is it true that R is not currently OLE accessible under Windows 2000? Second question: Is there an R command that echoes all R Console results to a run log system file? My first attempt to write a run log file is the example from the R Data Inport/Export documentation. > zz<-

Hello, I am looking for more information about lazy loading introduced in R 2.0.0. Doing ?lazyLoad I got some and there is a 'see also' section that points to 'makeLazyLoading'... But I cannot reach this page. My problem is: I recompiled a library that uses a lot of functions from other libraries (of course I can give details if needed). I load it in my computer: library(svGUI),

Hello, I do not understand the following behaviour. Could someone explain me what happens? > a <- NULL > a$item <- 1:3 > a$item [1] 1 2 3 > rm(a) > a <- NULL > a[["item"]] <- 1:3 Error: more elements supplied than there are to replace Why do I get an error message using list[["item"]], and not using list$item? Best, Philippe Grosjean

Hi, This is (presumably?) a bug in R 1.7.0 under Windows. I have not tested it on other systems. Attachment of packages is case sensitive but not library(), resulting in multiple loadings of the same package if the library name is spelled differently. The following example loads the `tools' package, once as `tools' and once as `Tools'. This behavior is the same with all packages and

Forwarded to R-Help, because I think it could interest people following this thread. Clearly, RServe and svSocket have different goals and very little overlap.

Hi, For those who are interested, I have update my R benchmark (to version 1.5.0) and also to Splus 6. They are available at: http://www.sciviews.org/other/benchmark.htm. A comparison is made between Matlab (5.3 & 6), R 1.5.0, Splus 6 rel 2, O-Matrix 5.1, Octave 2.1.31, Scilab 2.6, Rlab 2.1 and OX 3.00 under Windows 2000 pro. Overall, R is not the fastest package, but it is one of the

OK, I have made a little search about this "problem" that apparently occurs only on Windows platform... (but I am sure most of you are already aware of it): the slow down is due to the adoption of a different algorithm for pow in mingw 3.x. This is motivated by some other changes in mingw. Here is a quote of Danny Smith that did this change: >When mingw changed default FPU settings

Hello, I need a similar behaviour as with the prompt: asking to complete incomplete R command with eval(parse(text = ....)) Is it a way to make the difference between an illegal and an incomplete R command in a string? For instance: > parse(text="ls()") expression(ls()) This is fine! > parse(text="ls(") Error in parse(file, n, text, prompt) : parse error This is an

Bars are not stacked, but superimposed.

Hello Rusers, I have worked on a R Wiki page for solutions in exporting R graphs, especially, the often-asked questions: - How can I export R graphs in vectorized format (EMF) for inclusion in MS Word or OpenOffice outside of Windows? - What is the best solution(s) for post-editing/annotating R graphs.
