similar to: seq.Date bug?

Dear listers, I am trying to install RcppBDT_0.2.1 on my Windows machine using the function install.packages("./RcppBDT_0.2.1.tar.gz", repos=NULL, type="source"). Since this package is not like most of other packages in that it requires Rcpp and boost, I have installed Rcpp and boost first, and executed the install.packages function. Then, I got the following error message:

Hola a todos: La pregunta ha quedado clara en el asunto, pero: ¿existe alguna función que convierta un objeto temporal (TS) a matriz o data.frame? En algunos cálculos que estoy haciendo me viene bien convertir un objeto temporal a matriz para poder hacer cálculos parciales por meses o años (aplicando apply en la matriz) pero no he encontrado ninguna función que haga la conversión.

Dear all, I have found the following (for me) incomprehensible behaviour of ISOdate (POSIXct): > ISOdate(1900,6,16) [1] "1900-06-15 14:00:00 Westeurop?ische Sommerzeit" > ISOdate(1950,6,16) [1] "1950-06-16 14:00:00 Westeurop?ische Sommerzeit" Note that in the first case I get the 15th of June back, not the 16th as I would have expected! This happened under R-1.7.1 on

Hi, I am new to R, coming from a few years using Stata. I've been twisting my brain and checking several R and S references over the last few days to try to solve this data management problem: I have a data set with a unique patient identifier that is repeated along multiple rows, a variable with month of patient encounter, and a continous variable for cost of individual encounters. The data

Dear useR's, today I stumbled over an interesting phenomenon: First, I created a named numeric vector with a certain class and several attributes via the structure() function. After that, I implemented a simple print method for this class. When calling this function it produces an endless loop of print calls until R crashes. :/ What is going on here? Is this a bug or have I done something

Dear all, In R-devel (2011-09-23 r57050), I'm running into a serious problem with seek()ing on connections opened with gzfile(). A warning is generated and the file position does not seek to the requested location. It doesn't seem to occur all the time - I tried to create a small example file to illustrate it, but the problem didn't occur. However, it can be seen with a file I use for

Dear R-people! I am using R 1.8.0, under Windows XP. While using ISOdate() and strptime(), I noticed the following behaviour when "wrong" arguments (e.g., months>12) are given to these functions: > ISOdate(year=2003,month=2,day=20) #ok [1] "2003-02-20 13:00:00 Westeurop?ische Normalzeit" > ISOdate(year=2003,month=2,day=30) #wrong day, but returns a value [1]

hi, I've troubles with some difftime objects. e.g. ISOdate(2001, 4, 26) - ISOdate(2001, 2, 26) - 2 works, telling me "Time difference of 57 days". But when I'd like to add days, such as ISOdate(2001, 4, 26) - ISOdate(2001, 2, 26) + 2 the function gives me an error. Function "as.COMDate.chron" of the Rbloomberg package doesn't work for that reason. I'm

I have some data that was created for import into a Lotus 1-2-3 spreadsheet and on of the columns is time. The time is akin to Julian were the value 1 is mapped "01-Jan-00 12:00:00 AM" in Lotus 1-2-3. Is there a function in an R package that can convert this numeric vector to a POSIXct vector? With best wishes and kind regards I am Sincerely, Corey A. Moffet Instructor Department

Hi, Given a date, how do I get the last date of that month? I have data in the form YYYYMM, that I've read as a date using > x$Date <- as.Date(ISOdate(substr(x$YearEnd,1,4),substr(x$YearEnd,5,6),1)) But this gives the first day of the month. To get the last day of the month, I tried > as.Date(as.yearmon(x$Date,frac=0)) But I don't get the last day of the month here. (Tried

Although the documentation is somewhat sketchy, I() can be used to create objects of class AsIs: > I("a") [1] "a" attr(,"class") [1] "AsIs" "character" > I(4) [1] 4 attr(,"class") [1] "AsIs" "numeric" > I(4 + 0i) [1] 4+0i attr(,"class") [1] "AsIs" "complex" > This

Hi all, Is there any chance that readRDS and saveRDS might one day become read.rds and write.rds? That would make them more consistent with the other reading and writing functions.

I use POSIXct for datetimes. Is thee a timeAlign function that I can use where : align by year direction -1 ==> start of this year direction 1 ==> start of next year align by week direction -1 ==> date on last sunday direction 1 ==> date on next sunday align by day direction -1 ==> time at past midnight direction 1 ==> time at this comming

Dear Members, Compliments of the Season!! Below is a part of a code I use for Fourier analysis of signals. The code handles data with the format 05 01 01 8628 (year, month, day and count) 05 01 02 8589 (year, month, day and count) The sample data is attached as 2005daily.txt. I would like to adapt the code to handle data of the form: 05 01 01 00 4009

R-devel, I am interested in creating a package that requires non-GPL'd (commercial) C code to work. In essence it is a single .c file with no use of R headers (all .C callable functions). For example's sake: 1 #include <stdio.h> 2 3 void test (int *a) { 4 *a = 101; 5 } The package isn't destined for CRAN, and I realize that this isn't R-legal, but looking for

Happy 2013, Day 2. I can't seem to figure out why parent.frame() works differently depending on whether it is a formal/default argument or a passed argument. ##### code: basic setup #### tmp <- tempfile() A <- 101 save(A,file=tmp);rm(A) # these work as expected, loading into the parent of the call load() load(tmp);str(A);rm(A) load(tmp, parent.frame());str(A);rm(A) load(tmp,

I'd like to make a plot showing frequency of an event. The data is in a data from that includes Year, Month and Day (of month) fields, so I created a Date with ISOdate(Year, Month, Day, tz=''). I can plot frequencies for the year 2002 with > thisyear <- Date[Year==2002] > hist( thisyear, xaxt='n' ) > axis.POSIXct( 1, at=seq(min(thisyear), max(thisyear),

Hello out there.... Again I have a problem and I stuck... How can I sort a vector of dates? For example I have the vector a<-ISOdate(2001, 1, 1) + 70*86400*runif(10) How can this vector be sorted chronological? And what's the function I should work with to handle these entries? (in sense of: which(a>2001-01-04) or somehting like that) Thank you for helping M.Kirschbaum
