Anyone know how I can highlight specific words/letters (e.g., bold, or different colour) when displaying text to the console using cat or equivalent? I can change e.g., the colour for everything by loading in a new Rconsole file, but what I really want to do is write "hello world" to the screen but with the word "world" highlighted in some way. I've searched the

Hi ! I need a plot for data extending over several orders of magnitude on the y axis. The following command generates a nice looking semi-log plot for my data: plot(x,y,log="y",type="l",lty=3, ylim=c(0.01,2),yaxp=c(0.01,1,1),las=1) I would appreciate having also minor tick marks in-between the 3 major ticks obtained with the above command. The "minor.tick" function

Hi when I call the function below in R, i get the error: Object 'pairlist' can't be converted to 'double'. #include <R.h> #include <Rdefines.h> #include <Rmath.h> SEXP CSimPoisson(SEXP lambda, SEXP tgrid, SEXP T2M, SEXP Ni, SEXP NT) { double sign, EVar; double *xlambda, *xtgrid, *xT2M, *xNi, *xNT, *xtau; SEXP tau; int ltgrid =0; int i = 0; int j = 0;

Dear Admin, I will appreciate if you advise me an effective way to write the following R code including nested for loops. I cannot do it by using expand.grid function because it results with memory allocation problems. Thanks for your time and consideration. for(d1 in 0:n){ for(d2 in 0:n){ for(d3 in 0:n){ for(d4 in 0:n){ for(d5 in 0:n){ for(d6 in 0:n){ for(d7 in 0:n){ for(d8 in 0:n){ for(d9 in

I have written code to compute multi-indices in R [1] and due to the recursive nature of the computation I need to pass around the *same* matrix object (where each row corresponds to one multi-index). As pass by reference wasn't the default behavior I declared a global matrix (mat) and used the <<- operator to write to the global matrix. So the usage would be to call genMultiIndices(3,2)

Greetings, I am trying to call simple C-code from R. I am on Windows XP with RTools installed.

Hello, Here in our office we are testing Asterisk. My collage Igor created to Asterisk PrePaid application with Postgresql. It is not in Perl. We would like to release it to the group.... as soon as it will work ok. It will have authentication, different rates for users, different rates for destinations and so on. Is there anybody who would like to improve it ? -- Bart -------------- next part

Hello, I'm trying to make .DollarNames generic and implement a method for it in a package. .DollarNames is the function that is now called to get completion possibilities. My R code looks like this: setGeneric( ".DollarNames" ) setClass("track", representation(x="numeric", y="numeric")) ## A class extending the previous, adding one more

Is there a simple way of forcing file_column to download file from given (ex. in form) url instead of uploading it manualy?

Hello, We've released the int64 package to CRAN a few days ago. The package provides S4 classes "int64" and "uint64" that represent signed and unsigned 64 bit integer vectors. One further development of the package is to facilitate reading 64 bit integer data from csv, etc ... files. I have this function that wraps a call to read.csv to: - read the "int64"

Hello, I?m trying to leverage R_ToplevelExec to implement C level try/catch. The way it is implemented allows for running a function in a top level context. This context gets an empty handler stack, so either the function runs correctly or it jumps. When it jumps, it does not find a handler, so it jumps to the top level context. R does not allow me to call begin context and end context

Hello, Today, Brian Ripley commited the revision 50000 of R's svn repository. I took this as an opportunity to do some data analysis of the log and posted some code and graphics on my blog: http://romainfrancois.blog.free.fr/index.php?post/2009/10/09/celebrating-R-commit-50000 The plots of the number of commits per day (and per month) indicates a peak in 2002. Here are the top 20

It happens in the token function in gram.c:     c = SkipSpace();     if (c == '#') c = SkipComment(); and then SkipComment goes like that: static int SkipComment(void) {     int c;     while ((c = xxgetc()) != '\n' && c != R_EOF) ;     if (c == R_EOF) EndOfFile = 2;     return c; } which effectively drops comments. Would it be possible to keep the information

Hello, I've looked in tools:::.install_packages for some sort of hook that would let packages developers point to further instructions after a package is installed.

Hello, As this little program illustrates, duplicating a STRSXP does not seem deep enough. require( inline ) fx <- cfunction( signature( x = "character"), ' SEXP y = PROTECT( duplicate( x ) ); int n = LENGTH(x); int nc = 0 ; char* p = 0 ; for( int i=0; i<n; i++){ p = (char*)( CHAR( STRING_ELT( y , i ) ) ); nc = strlen( p ) ; for( int j=0; j<nc; j++){ p[j] =
