I'm having trouble with a Bioconductor package, an variable expected in an environment does not seem to be there. As part of my investigation of the problem (most likely on my end) I'd like to list the variables contained in an environment. If you have an environment loaded, lets call it "pkgEnv', how does one find what it does contain? Mark

I just downloaded R-devel and when loaded it immediately segfaults. I'm not sure how much or what sort of diagnostic info and can provide, but below is my build script, my console output, and the output of uname -r. I am currently dependent on the development version of a package, so I'd like to get R-devel up and running if possible. I am sure there is more info I can provide, but before

I can compile RSPython without difficulty, been when I try to load it, I get the error messages below. Also below are some cryptic warnings I get on R boot (in case these are pertinent) and my sessionInfo(). Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Mark Warning messages: 1: In .updateMethodsInTable(fdef, where, attach) : Couldn't find methods table for "conditional", package

For years I have been using options(error = recover) either in .Rprofile or from within R for debugging purposes. The functionality of this appears to have changed and I can't recover it (no pun intended) using the ?options help page. How can I get the old functionality back, particularly from within .Rprofile? A specific line entry would be appreciated. An example, the help page, and

Subject pretty much says it all. Wonder if there is there is some code in XML that the new gcc doesn't like? See output below: * Installing *source* package 'XML' ... checking for gcc... gcc checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out checking whether the C compiler works... yes checking whether we are cross compiling... no checking for suffix of executables... checking

I am performing many permutations on a data-set with each permutation producing a variable number of results. I thought that the best way to keep track of all this in one object would be with a list ('res.lst'). To address these variable results for each permutation I attempted to construct this list using 'assign'. There is even more nesting than indicated below, but this is a

Recently I posted to this list with a question about using the Intel 10.1 compilers in building R and one response was basically, "why in the heck would you want to do that?" The answer is that my sysadmin believes that there will be a performance boost with the Intel vs. Gnu compilers on our Linux cluster, of which I am one of many users. Wanting to be a good citizen and use my machine

I have identical R.profiles and R_HOME directories set up on both my local machine and a remote linux cluster. To keep my libraries and R install separate, I use a site-library on both machines. The first line of my .Rprofile is: '.libPaths(new= "~/R_HOME/site-library") #tell R where site-library is' Until R-2.6.0 this was working fine on both machines, but since I have been

I was running some sample code from a help page tonight and wished to redirect the sample output to my Desktop under Linux (Mint-Debian 64 if it makes a different). I was surprised to find that file name expansion using the ubuquitious "~/" was not recognized, in fact it caused R to crash. Is this expected behavior? See my output below and sessionInfo(). Also, not shown, but

I'm having trouble achieving the results I want using a regular expression. I want to eliminate all characters that fall within square brackets as well as the brackets themselves, returning an "". I'm not sure if it's R's use of double slash escapes or something else that is tripping me up. If I only use one slash I get 1: '\[' is an unrecognized escape in a

I am running 64-bit Ubuntu 8.04 and when I invoke rggobi the interactive graph displays but R crashes. See my sessionInfo() and a short example below. Ggobi and rggobi installed without complaints. Mark > sessionInfo() R version 2.7.0 Patched (2008-05-04 r45620) x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu locale:

Subject pretty much says it all. I am running 64-bit Ubuntu 8.04, i.e. Hardy Heron, have openmpi installed, and get the following error message with attempted install of Rmpi. sessionInfo() follows.

Just installed the latest R-patched and get the error seen at the end of the output below. Don't know what to make of this but thought I should report it. In general, when installing the latest version of R, should one use R-latest or R-patched? R-latest is stable, but one would assume that R-patched includes the latest bug fixes.

I am getting some unexpected results from some functions of igraph and it is possible that I am misinterpreting the vertex numbers. Eg., the max betweenness measure seems to be from a vertex that is not connected to a single other vertex.

I have a very long list that I'd like to subset based on a logical value within each element. Example below. I'd like to get just those list elements for further study whose $sig.cor slot is TRUE. In this example, I'd only want element [[2]]. Should be simple, I know. How can I do this? Thanks, Mark > gene.pair.tf.lst [[1]] [[1]]$gene.pair [1] "Lgals1:Pxmp2"

Is it possible to vectorize anova over the output of a vectorized lm? I have a gene expression matrix with each row being a gene and columns for samples. There are several factors with interactions. I can get p values by looping over the matrix with lm and anova, but I would like to make this as computationally efficient as possible. I am able to vectorize the lm command, but when I try to use

I need to write a table that can be opened in Excel or OpenOffice such that there are newlines embedded within cells. After much Googling and futzing, I can't figure out how to do this. The way to do this within Excel is alt-Enter and I've tried '/n', '/n/r', '/r/n' per some web suggestions without luck. Anybody know what character or ASCII code to use for this?

I am analyzing an experiment in which time is a factor, represented by numbers indicating time since last treatment, but in this particular case there is no reason to think that time has a numeric meaning in the sense that 24 would be greater than 6. We have no idea which genes will be increasing or decreasing at different times. So I have the following model (to be applied over many genes): mod
