Hi, As some of you know, one of the R Projects ideas for GSOC 2009 is to expand the crantastic.org portal. Some ideas for what should be done is mentioned in Hadley Wickham's project description [1], others have been briefly mentioned on this mailing list before. Undoubtedly, however, there are many other good ideas out there that could be implemented. Please suggest any ideas you might have

Hi, The following function works, but is there a neater way to write it? f = function(x,...) { # return a character vector of the arguments passed in after 'x' gsub(" ","",unlist(strsplit(deparse(substitute(list(...))),"[(,)]")))[-1] } > f(x,a,b,c*d) [1] "a" "b" "c*d" > Thanks. [[alternative HTML

Hi, Please see below for post on r-help regarding data.frame() and the possibility of dropping rownames, for space and time reasons. I've made some changes, attached, and it seems to be working well. I see the expected space (90% saved) and time (10 times faster) savings. There are no doubt some bugs, and needs more work and testing, but I thought I would post first at this stage. Could some

Forwarded to R-Help, because I think it could interest people following this thread. Clearly, RServe and svSocket have different goals and very little overlap.

Hi, In the example below why is d 10 times bigger than m, according to object.size ? It also takes around 10 times as long to create, which fits with object.size() being truthful. gcinfo(TRUE) also indicates a great deal more garbage collector activity caused by data.frame() than matrix(). $ R --vanilla .... > nr = 1000000 > system.time(m<<-matrix(integer(1), nrow=nr, ncol=2)) [1]

Hi, n = 10000000 L = list(a=integer(n), b=integer(n)) L[[2]][1:10] gives me the first 10 items of the 2nd vector in the list L. It works fine. However it appears to copy the entire L[[2]] vector in memory first, before subsetting it. It seems reasonable that "[[" can't know that all that is to be done is to do [1:10] on the result and therefore a copy in memory of the entire

Is it intended that the first suffix can no longer be blank? Seems to be caused by a bug fix to merge in R 2.15.0. $Rdevel --vanilla DF1 = data.frame(a=1:3,b=4:6) DF2 = data.frame(a=1:3,b=7:9) merge(DF1,DF2,by="a",suffixes=c("",".1")) Error in merge.data.frame(DF1, DF2, by = "a", suffixes = c("", ".1")) : there is already a column

Hi all, Here's my idea for the google summer of code - it's a resubmission from last year. We had a couple of interested students, but their proposals weren't quite competitive enough to get funding.

Kurt, Uwe suggested I write to you as maintainer of chron ... at the start of is.weekend, in the check on the argument type, maybe just change chron() to as.chron()? This would ensure as.chron.POSIXt gets called on POSIXt arguments, and (I think) fixes the problem. I tested and it seems ok. No warning/error required. > is.weekend function(x) { if(!inherits(x, "dates"))

Dear all, I'm experiencing an unusual installation error for one package. Could anyone suggest how I can best investigate this from here please? I'm sorry this isn't very much to go on. Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction. The problem seems to be my library. It is large (3,418 packages) and I'd like to avoid rebuilding it, if possible. All packages are up to
