Hi I am having difficulty defining an S4 method for head() and tail(). I can't quite provide minimal self-contained code because the problem appears to require the whole corpus of my package; and there also appears to be a difference between sourcing the lines directly, and having them installed in a package. The lines in question (I think) are: setClass("mdm",

Hi [R-2.10.0; suse linux] I am having difficulty creating S4 objects in the data directory of a package. I want to create a bunch of simple S4 objects for use in the examples section of the Rd files. It says in R-exts that: " R code should be ?self-sufficient? and not make use of extra functionality provided by the package, so that the data file can also be used without having to load

Hi I read that bundles are to be deprecated in 2.10. The BACCO bundle contains three packages (emulator, calibrator, approximator) which I am happy to unbundle. But the 'BACCO' moniker has some considerable cachet for me in terms of recognizability (eg with grant-giving bodies), as it has become an umbrella term for a whole bunch of related statistical functionality of which the three

Hi Given three vectors x <- c(fish=3, dogs=5, bats=2) y <- c(dogs=1, hogs=3) z <- c(bats=3, dogs=5) How do I create a multi-way table like the following? > out x y z bats 2 0 3 dogs 5 1 5 fish 3 0 0 hogs 0 3 0 ('out' is a matrix). See how the first line shows 'x' has 2 bats, 'y' has zero bats, and 'z' has 3 bats and so on for each

Hello everyone. R-2.12.0, suse linux 11.3. I am debugging a package that uses S4 methods and R CMD check gives the following warning: > Warning in methods::findMethods(g, env) : > non-generic function 'mdm' given to findMethods() > See the information on DESCRIPTION files in the chapter 'Creating R > packages' of the 'Writing R Extensions' manual. I

Hi suppose I have a factor 'x': > x <- as.factor(c(rep("a",3),"b","d")) > table(x) x a b d 3 1 1 > > But this is not what I want because I need to include the fact that the count of "c" is zero. I can't just change the levels of x: > levels(x) <- c("a","b","c","d") >

Hi I want a generalization of tabulate() which works on rows of a matrix. Suppose I have an integer matrix 'observation': > observation y1 y2 y3 1 4 0 1 4 0 2 0 3 4 1 0 0 5 0 0 1 4 2 0 3 Each row corresponds to a (multivariate) observation. Note that the first two rows are identical: this means that data "c(1,4,0)" was observed twice. Now suppose I can list the sample

Dear All I am preparing a number of vignettes that require a very long time to process with Sweave. The longest one takes 10 hours. I love the weaver package! Is a package that includes such a computationally intensive vignette acceptable on CRAN? Are there any guidelines here? -- Robin K. S.

Hi I deal with long vectors almost all of whose elements are zero. Typically, the length will be ~5e7 with ~100 nonzero elements. I want to deal with these objects using a sort of sparse vector. The problem is that I want to be able to 'add' two such vectors. Toy problem follows. Suppose I have two such objects, 'a' and 'b': > a $index [1] 20 30 100000000

Hi R-2.8.1, Suse 11.1 I'm having problems with pdf(). In the following transcript, file 'f.pdf' does not use the expected symbols for the plot. It uses a 'q' letter instead of the open circle I get when viewing the graphics window. I also get the same under r47678. Does anyone else get this? le112:~/scratch/R-2.8.1% R --vanilla --quiet >

Hi I have a data frame with timeseries information like this: year cell Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 1940 1 1.2 1.4 1.4 1.9 1941 1 2.9 2.1 3.4 2.4 1942 1 2.7 3.2 1.5 2.6 1940 2 1.4 2.1 2.6 2.4 1941 2 2.4 1.4 1.4 3.4 1942 2 1.4 2.4 2.5 4.4 where the Qs mean 'quarter'. I want to extract from

Hi I have a factor 'f' and a named list 'jj'. I want names(jj) to match up with levels(f). How do I use levels(f) to access elements of jj? > f <- factor(c("pigs","pigs","slugs")) > f [1] pigs pigs slugs Levels: pigs slugs > > jj <- list(pigs=1:10,slugs=1:3) My attempts to produce jj$pigs all give errors: >

Hello, I am having a problem with the "outer" function. I am using R 1.9.1 on Windows 2000. My problem may be described as follows: I have a function f of 3 variables and 3 vectors, aa, bb and cc. I would like to evaluate this function in a 3-dimensional grid of points corresponding to all combinations of the elements of the 3 vectors. For example, if aa<-c(1,2) bb<-c(3,4)

Hello. I am trying to write an S4 method for rbind(). I have a class of objects called 'mdm', and I want to be able to rbind() them to one another. I do not want the method for rbind() to coerce anything to an mdm object. I want rbind(x1,x2,x1,x2) to work as expected [ie rbind() should take any number of arguments]. This is what I have so far: setGeneric(".rbind_pair",

Hello everybody When one is working with complex matrices, "transpose" very nearly always means *Hermitian* transpose, that is, A[i,j] <- Conj(A[j,i]). One often writes A^* for the Hermitian transpose. I have only once seen a "real-life" case where transposition does not occur simultaneously with complex conjugation. And I'm not 100% sure that that wasn't a

Hi I'm new to wine and I am wondering how i can view and change the files in wine's virtual Windows XP. Main problem: I have successfully installed Final Fantasy XI online through wine @ wineffxi.org. But some of the functions that I like that is provided by windower (a third party program) are not there. I'd like to install windower to enhance my Final Fantasy XI functions. Help

Hello R experten I have just written a little function to calculate all pairwise combinations of two vector arguments: > pair(c(1,2,3),c(7,8)) [,1] [,2] [1,] 1 7 [2,] 1 8 [3,] 2 7 [4,] 2 8 [5,] 3 7 [6,] 3 8 > I want to generalize this to any number of arguments, for example, <fantasy> > ntuple(c(1,2,3),c(7,8),c(14,15)) [,1] [,2]

allow me to play someone with a fractional clue for the moment. What I want is a Gentoo based system that can run multiple virtual instances (maybe as many as 10 or 20) of a stock application configuration. My fantasy is that I will be able to build a single disk image for all of the basic OS and application to be shared between multiple virtual machines. Update that single core image using
