This is was something like a request for your comments, thoughts on the topic... Many of you will know that the "..." (aka \dots) argument is very useful for passing ``further graphical parameters'', but can be a pain when itself is passed to too many plotting functions inside your own function. An artificial example being myplot <- function(x,y, ...) { plot(0:1, 0:1,

Hi R users This looks a simple question Is there any difference between between rnorm(1000,0,1) and running rnorm(500,0,1) twice in terms of outcome ? TM

Dear R-helpers, does anyone know of some package/function that can build a network from the functions that are implemented in a package, i.e. visualize the cross-references from one function to another in the same or some dependent package? An example would be a function like 'nls' on top of the hierarchy and then a network of nodes from the functions that are called within 'nls'

Dear Group, I have made significant improvements to our Sweave template, have made the template self-contained (i.e., you can run it yourself and it will find the datasets it needs), and have included the output pdf file. This is at http://biostat.mc.vanderbilt.edu/SweaveTemplate . You will see in the pdf file the enhancements in how R code is pretty-printed, and I have added an example

Folks, I was drawn to R, like many others, partly for the opportunity to draw nice, colorful graphs (occasionally ones with meaning, too :-) ). I am still quite a newbie to R. As such, I have been trying to understand the code for the graphics on the home page (the ones from the 2004 contest -- the dendrogram, the cluster plot with different coloured circles, etc.) I was wondering whether anyone

Dear R-users, I am translating a S script into R and having some troubles with the match function. This function appears to work with vector and data.frame in S, but not in R, e.g.: a <- rep((1:4), each = 10) b <- rep((1:10), times = 4) mydf <- data.frame(a,b) myarg <- mydf[1,] match(myarg, mydf) # S returns 1 but R returns NA NA I guess one could use match(interaction(myarg),

Dear R users and developpers, My question is adressed to both of you, so I choose R-help to post it. Are there any plans to jazz up the main R website : http://www.r-project.org The look it have now is the same for a long time and kind of sad compared to other statistical package's website. Of course, the comparison is not fair, since companies are paying web designers to draw lollipop

Hi all, I'm trying to process all files with a certain extension "*.ext" in a directory like this: > R --slave --args /my/dir < dir_plot.r where I then I want to do something like: myarg <- commandArgs() inputdir <- myarg[length(myarg)] print(inputdir) "for file with extension "*.ext in inputdir" do data = process.data(file) outfile =

Dear List, just out of pure curiosity: is it possible to define a function via 'substitute()' such that the function's formal arguments are specified by a "wildcard" that is substituted when the expression is evaluated? Simple example: x.args <- formals("data.frame") x.body <- expression( out <- myArg + 100, return(out) ) expr <-

Dear R-Developers, could 'sample' gain a ... argument? As a convenience function, I added a sample Method to my hyperSpec class. This function however has a flag indicating whether the results should be returned directly as a hyperSpec object or rather as indices that give a random sample. For the moment, I use SetGeneric to add the dots argument, but this of course gives a warning

I've had a lot of requests for additions to the reproducible research task view that fall into a grey area (to me at least). For example, roxygen2 is a tool that broadly enable reproducibility but I see it more as a tool for better programming. I'm about to check in a new version of the task view that includes packrat and checkpoint, as they seem closer to reproducible research, but also

Using R 2.4, the following fails: setClass("testc", representation(a="ANY")) makeC <- function(myarg) new("testc", a=myarg) makeC() -> Error in initialize(value, ...) : argument "myarg" is missing, with no default On the other hand, this is OK: f <- function(a) g(b=a) g <- function(b) if(missing(b)) "missing" else "valid

Frequently we have a print method, say print.myclass, that has a variety of arguments. If in the .Rd file I say \usage{ \method{print}{myclass}(x, myarg) } I get a warning when running R CMD chk: * checking generic/method consistency ... WARNING print: function(x, ...) print.myclass: function(x, myarg) What is the proper way to handle this? Thanks -- Frank E Harrell Jr

Hi all, I downloaded the newest package in the hopes of a changelog so I can ask for packaging in the distribution but there is no changelog in the Changelog. It was empty. The only thing which was relevant was in the News. Why the changelog is kept if its not gonna be used? -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal This email is licensed under

Hi, We are using r-forge to create a package. My query is that how do I keep the change log updated. I created the change log by doing the following: svn log -v>./inst/changelog Also if I do svn add ./inst/changelog and svn commit -m "Adding changelog" then the changelog is one version behind in the commit history. How do I solve this? Regards Vikram [[alternative HTML version

As we?re talking 1.3.1 release, I?ve been keeping track of a couple of changes that I feel should be included in the changelog and that I might as well share here. The things between brackets are just to refresh memories, I?d leave them out of the actual changelog. * Improved efficiency of 24 bit decoding.
