similar to: surprising behaviour of names<-

Thanks for the gracious assistance in advance I'm working on a non-metric scaling problem and am calculating the distance for input to isoMDS Here is the code library(MASS) vegdata <- tapply(Percent, list(PRIMARY_VE, MASTERID), sum) x.mat <- matrix(x, nrow=40, ncol=2750, byrow=TRUE, dimnames = c(dimnames(x)[1], dimnames(x)[2])) vegdata.dd <- dist(x) vegdata.dd <-

Hi, I was bitten by a little incoherence in dimnames assignment or may be I missed some point. Here is the case. If I assign row names via dimnames(a)[[1]], when nrow(a)=1 then an error is thrown. But if I do the same when nrow(a) > 1 it's OK. Is one of this case works unexpectedly? Both? Neither? a=as.matrix(1) dimnames(a)[[1]]="a" # error: 'dimnames' must be a list

Hi, It's nice to be able to define S4 classes with slots that correspond to standard attributes: setClass("A1", slots=c(names="character")) setClass("A2", slots=c(dim="integer")) setClass("A3", slots=c(dimnames="list")) By doing this, one gets a few methods for free: a1 <- new("A1", names=letters[1:3])

I've fixed this and will commit soon. Disregard my dim<-() example; that behaves as expected (the class needs a dim<-() method).

Hello, I have stumbled upon a few cases where the behaviour of naming and subsetting in matrices seems unintuitive. All those look related so wanted to put everything in one message. 1. Why row/col selection by names with NAs is not allowed? x <- setNames(1:10, letters[1:10]) X <- matrix(x, nrow=2, dimnames = list(letters[1:2], LETTERS[1:5])) x[c(1, NA, 3)] # vector: works

First a general comment on posting style, could you please be more specific about where the error occurs as without this it is very difficult to identify what the problem is. Now concerning your problem. When I tried the code I posted yesterday I thought it worked fine. I've tried it again now and found that the data.frame TAB3 actually only has one column and the names "A",

Hello, the fix of PR18612 (https://bugs.r-project.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18612) in r85380 (https://github.com/wch/r-source/commit/2653cc6203fce4c48874111c75bbccac3ac4e803) caused a change in `dim<-()`. Specifically, in the past, any `dim<-()` assignment would _always_ remove "dimnames" and "names" attributes per help("dim"): The replacement method changes

Hi Martin, Henrik, I actually like this change. Makes a lot of sense IMO that dim(x) <- dim(x) be a no-op, or, more generally, that foo(x) <- foo(x) be a no-op for any setter/getter combo. FWIW S4Arrays::set_dim() does that too. It also preserves the dimnames if the right value is only adding or dropping outermost (ineffective) dimensions: ??? > x <- array(1:6, dim=c(2,3,1),

I have two queries about the behaviour of drop() and apply() regarding the dimnames and names(dimnames) of the answer. I would appreciate any comments on this behaviour. I will submit any of this as a bug report if I am encouraged to do so. The first query, concerning drop(), seems to me to be a bug in ?drop, and possibly also in the function. ?drop: [...] Any accompanying 'dimnames'

Martin I'd like to make a comment; I think that R's behaviour on 'edge' cases like this is an important thing and it's great that you are working on it. I make heavy use of zero-extent arrays, chiefly because the dimnames are an efficient and logical way to keep track of certain types of information. If I have, for example, a <- array(0,c(2,0,2)) dimnames(a) <-

I'd like to know if there's a way to non-destructively reverse L-R channels in an ogg vorbis file? I've been recording live classical sources, but until tonight haven't listened to them on anything with even approaching decent stereo separation. Well, you guessed it. Why the hell are the violins on the right and the brass on the left? Checked my equipment and sure enough, cable

Hello, I would like to create a function that gets passed a class name and then calls setClass, and a few other functions, inside. I have done this in the past with setmethod, creating accessors for all slots in a set of S4 classes. But setClass is choking when my function is called isnide a package, telling about an error in exists(cname, where). I assume this to be a problem with the

Below is a SIMEX object that was generated with the "simex" function from the "simex" package applied to a logistic regression fit. From this mountain of information I would like to extract all of the values summarized in this line: .. ..$ variance.jackknife: num [1:5, 1:4] 1.684 1.144 0.85 0.624 0.519 ... Can someone suggest how to go about doing this? I can extract the

Is there a reason that array() silently ignores dimnames that are not a list but matrix() gives an error? > str(matrix(11:14, 2, 2, dimnames=c("Rows","Cols"))) Error in matrix(11:14, 2, 2, dimnames = c("Rows", "Cols")) : 'dimnames' must be a list > str(array(11:14, dim=c(2, 2), dimnames=c("Rows","Cols"))) int

Dear R-users, I am looking for a way to assign to slices of arrays where dimensionality of the array is not a-priory known. Specifically, I would like to be able to generalize the following example of dimensionality 2 to an arbitrary diminsionality: In this example we create an array x, a smaller array y and then assign y to a slice of x. > dimnmx <- list(c('a','b'),

Hi, I've a list of list. I want to extract an element by the rownames. I can extract it by: data[[1]][[1]][[4]][1] But I want to exctract it by a command like this: data[[1]][["B0"]][["smac"]][["cont"]][1] It's possible?

Hi, I have been studying the R manual on lists but cannot seem to create a simple R list in C - I keep on getting "'dimnames' applied to non-array" whenever I attempt to assign names to the list elements: Wanted output a list structure something like [ type="Bid", price=2.0, volume=1000 ] I can get up to a list of [ "Bid2, 2.0, 1000 ] But for the life of
