Full_Name: Doug Grove Version: 1.7.0 OS: Linux Submission from: (NULL) (209.31.211.56) Hi, Minor mistake in the documentation on the colSums page. In the ARGUMENTS section it states for 'dims' that: For `col*', the sum or mean is over dimensions `dims+1, ...'; for `row*' it is over dimensions `1:dims'. These two are reversed. Thanks, Doug Grove

Full_Name: Doug Grove Version: 2.3.1 patched (2006-07-03 r38485) OS: Windows Submission from: (NULL) (24.19.37.159) A msg. to R-help prompted me to read the help page for split.screen/screen, etc. I understand what the function is for, but could not find information that described how the argument 'n' in screen/erase.screen/close.screen is mapped to the regions on the device. All we

Hi, This report deals with p-values coming from chisq.test using the simulate.p=TRUE option. The issue is numerical accuracy and was brought up in previous bug reports 3486 and 3896. The bug was considered fixed but apparently was only mostly fixed. Just the typical problem of two values that are mathematically equal not ending up numerically equivalent. Consider this series of three 2x2

Hi, I'm wondering if anyone can point me to a function that will allow me to do a ranking that treats ties differently than rank() provides for? I'd like a method that will assign to the elements of each tie group the largest rank. An example: For the vector 'v', I'd like the method to return 'rv' v: 1 2 3 3 3 4 5 5 6 7 rv: 1 2 5 5 5 6 8 8 9 10 Thanks,

Full_Name: Doug Grove Version: R.1.9.1 OS: Linux Submission from: (NULL) (140.107.156.61) I just found that rank() has a 'decreasing' argument that is not documented in its help page. I checked my version of 2.0.0 (original release hence unpatched) and it is not documented there. For curiousity I also went back to version 1.8.1 and checked the function (not the documentation)and at

Hi, It would be great if someone would add write.delim() as an adjunct to write.table(), just as with write.csv(). I store a lot of data in tab-delimited files and can read it in easily with: read.delim("text.txt", as.is=TRUE) and would love to be able to write it out as easily when I create these files. The obvious setting needed for write.delim() is sep = "\t", but in

Hi, I'm trying to understand a behaviour that I have encountered and can't fathom. Here's some code I will use to illustrate the behaviour: # start with some data frame "a" having some named columns a <- data.frame(a=rep(1,3),c=rep(2,3),d=rep(3,3),e=rep(4,3)) # create a subset of the original data frame, but include a # name "b" that is not present in my

Hi, I'm having what I believe are OS problems with my installation of R-1.6.0. The machine I'm using was previously running R-1.4.0. The install seemed fine to me. I didn't note an error messages in 'make' or 'make check'. My problem is that I've been running some memory intesive code, and the code that ran under 1.4.0 but won't run under R.1.6.0 (or under

Hi all, I am currently building an application based on R 1.7.1 (+ compiled C/C++ code + MySql + VB). I am building this application to work on 2 different platforms (Windows XP Professional (500mb memory) and Windows NT 4.0 with service pack 6 (1gb memory)). This is a very memory intensive application performing sophisticated operations on "large" matrices (typically 5000x1500

hello,everyone. I have one question: example 1 > x=numeric(0) > y=5 > print(x+y) numeric(0) example 2 > x=numeric(1) > y=5 > print(x+y) [1] 5 why the print(x+y) is numeric(0) at the first example, but the result is 0 at the second example? __________________________________________________ 佈伵伝仮伱佲伔佈G佊伿佅佷仯伃佒佇伖侜伒佢佉伝伨侙佄佫伬伂伝侙佊伿伡侢伾仹伻伵伋伂伌侒佊伿佅佷

I have what R seems to consider a very large dataset, a 12MB text file of lat,long,and height values, 130,000 rows to be exact.

Hi, What's the best way of dropping leading or trailing blanks from a character string? The only thing I can think of is using sub() to replace blanks with null strings, but I don't know if there is a better way (I also don't know how to represent the trailing blank in a regular expression). Thanks, Doug Grove

Hi, I just downloaded and installed last nights version of R-patched and decided that I'd set R_BATCHSAVE=--no-save in config.site, which I haven't done before. Since the comment above R_BATCHSAVE in config.site says: ## The default behavior of R if it encounters EOF in batch mode. ## Set this to one of '--save' or '--no-save' depending whether you ## want automatic

Full_Name: Doug Grove Version: 1.8.1 Patched (1-11-04) OS: Linux, RedHat 9.0 Submission from: (NULL) (140.107.156.61) The issue may be broader than this, but I'm finding that when I specify that the axis annotation be perpendicular to the axes, and I change the annotation size (using cex.axis) the character size inflation/deflation occurs in only one direction, from the bottom up.

Hi, I'm having a problem (of my own creation) with BATCH. The current problem (for me): ---------------------------- I'm sloppy. I work on *nux systems and will type e.g. "R CMD BATCH a*R out" to avoid typing the full name of some R script of mine. However, sometimes I'm overly sloppy and there are multiple files that match "a*R", so "a*R" turns into

I've made some minor changes to the join document for Azure AD. Specifically, there was a major mistake in the TransportKey definition. If you're working on a join implementation, make sure you pay close attention to the changes. Azure accepts just about any blob in the TransportKey field, and doesn't perform any validation on it. This only becomes obvious when future responses

I get ties in output from runif() when I generate as few as 10^5 variates and get quite a lot when I generate 10^6. Is this expected?? I haven't seen any duplication with rnorm(10^6), but see varying amounts of duplication using rexp(), rbeta() and rgamma(). I would have thought that there'd be enough precision that one wouldn't get ties until generating samples larger than this..

The Subject line mostly says it. I'm designing it as a semester-long, 3 hours per week, course that takes in students who got the basics of R in stats classes, but don't really know how to program in it. Translation: if their own examples don't look enough like examples from previous work, they're stumped. Does anybody have a text for an intermediate R course (but not too
