similar to: Adding a "description" meta-tag to the R homepage

Hello dear R-devel, I am allowing myself to bump this issue again (half a year later) - I think that the www.r-project.org website could benefit from having a description meta-tag. Could anyone please let me know who to contact regarding this? With much respect, Tal On Sat, Apr 2, 2011 at 4:24 PM, Tal Galili <tal.galili@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello Peter, > > Here is what google

My objective is to start having meta-data on objects that I create. For example, consider the following function: assign2 <- function(x, ...) { assign("x", ...) attr(x, "creation time") <- Sys.time() x <<- x } assign2("x", 1:4) "assign2" assigns to x the vector 1:4, and it then also adds the creation time of the object. (Hat tip goes to

Dear All! I'm looking for equivalent of Matematica function "Which" which works as follows: z = Which[x<10,0.3, 10<=x<20,0.5, 20<=x<100,1] where x is a vector I can replace it with custom function with set of ifelse but I'm looking for simpler and faster (much faster) solution best wishes Jarek

Hello all: Is there a way to set up R such that, when you have a very long output from a command, it will pause when it has displayed one-screen of information and ask me to press a button to continue displaying? I happen to have one such command and the information I need is at the top of the output - and it's just nowhere to be seen. (If you are familiar with Stata, I'm looking for

Hello How do you compare R to SAS in terms of speed and management of large datasets? What about Revolution R? I've seen on their site, they claim that Revolution R is much faster than R and it's multithread... Can you really notice the difference?. What dissadvantage does it have? I think it's based on R 2.10. but R already issued the version 2.12 Regards What alternative

Hi everyone, If I compute a "Ordered Logistic or Probit Regression" with the polr function from MASS package. the summary give me : coefficients, Standard error and Tvalue.. but not directly the p.value. I can compute "manualy" the Pvalue, but Is there a way to directly obtain the pa.value, and I wonder why the p.valeu is not directly calculated, is there a reason? exemple

Hello dear R-help mailing list. I wish to be able to have htmlParse work well with Hebrew, but it keeps to scramble the Hebrew text in pages I feed into it. For example: # why can't I parse the Hebrew correctly? library(RCurl) library(XML) u = "http://humus101.com/?p=2737" a = getURL(u) a # Here - the hebrew is fine. a2 <- htmlParse(a) a2 # Here it is a mess...

After reading more, I understand I didn't formulate my last question correctly, so please allow me to rephrase: What I am looking for is a way to save the R console session output. That is, a command that would combine the results of using: ?sink # And ?savehistory My motivation for this is that doing it will allow someone who is a blind user of R to be able to easily export his results to

Hello all, I am using R 2.13.0 with windows 7, after giving my user full privileges to the R folder (as described here<http://www.r-statistics.com/2011/04/how-to-upgrade-r-on-windows-7/> ). This allows me to install new packages just fine. However, when using update.packages(), to update existing packages, I keep getting the following error (for example, when updating the MASS package):

Hello all, I recently discovered the "comment" command. I see it can only hold a vector of characters. Is there a way (or an alternative), to make it possible to have it keep a list? (for example, to keep different pieces of information like date of creation, information of each variable and so on) The closest solution I can think of is using 'names' on the vector, like this:
