similar to: data frames with non-unique row.names (PR#98)

In R and S, the general idea is that data.frames must have unique row.names (aka dimnames(.)[[1]]). Several observations / problems (in R *and* S !). [Example code at the end] 1) Both in S and R, data.frame(..) (and e.g., also cbind(<data.frame>, ..) which dispatches to data.frame()) silently drops the whole row.names and replaces it by "1" "2" ...

Hello, I think there is an inconsistency in the handling of the compact form of the row.names attributes. When n is the number of rows of a data.frame, the compact form is c(NA_integer_,-n), as in: > d <- data.frame(x=1:10) > .Internal(inspect(d)) @104f174a8 19 VECSXP g0c1 [OBJ,NAM(2),ATT] (len=1, tl=0) @103a7dc60 13 INTSXP g0c4 [] (len=10, tl=0) 1,2,3,4,5,... ATTRIB: @104959380

I might be missing something really obvious, but is there an easy way to locate all non-unique values in a data frame? Example mydata <- numeric() mydata$id <- 0:8 mydata$unique <- c(1:5, 1:4) mydata$result <- c(1:3, 1:3, 1:3) > mydata $id [1] 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 $unique [1] 1 2 3 4 5 1 2 3 4 $result [1] 1 2 3 1 2 3 1 2 3 What I want to to be able to get some form of data output

I expected the row names to be unique but a data frame appears to be able to hold duplicate row names. This makes me thing that there must be circumstances when it is necessary. However, I cannot think of any. Please enlighten me. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I guess I got carried away with using methods (having just gotten the hang of the concept). :-) Anyway, here's a corrected version:

The reasons are roughly summarized by the analogy that a smaller part of a big pie is often better than a bigger part of a small pie. Mathsoft's limited success in addressing the student market has

I have data.frame's with IDs and multiple columns. B/c some of IDs showed up more than once, I need sum up colum values to creat a new dataframe with unique ids. I hope there are some cheaper ways of doing it... Because the dataframe is huge, it takes almost an hour to do the task. Thanks so much in advance!

Hello: I am looking at "Writing R Extensions", subsection 3.6.4, using R 1.1.0, under NT4.0, with VC++ 6.0. Under these conditions I can use the first method given for coding the out() function, but not the second, which uses getAttrib() and setAttrib(). I hope that someone will tell me how this second method can also be made to work. Details follow, for anyone kind enough to help.

Dear R developers, I am writing some C code that loads multiple images into a list of R matrices. The whole R object is created within the C code. To simplify coding, elements of the list are first created as vectors and then converted to corresponding matrices using setAttrib(x, R_DimSymbol, s). Generally the code works fine except for one detail. Applying setAttrib sets ALL elements

Dear all, Is there a reason, why there is no +-operator for aes (i.e. uneval) objects (as there is for themes and gg objects)? I had a couple of cases where such an operator would be useful, for instance to combine the result of aes and aes_string in functions. Any flaws with the following proposition: `+.uneval` <- function(e1, e2) { dup <- names(e1) %in% names(e2) if (any(dup)) {

there is my code,  expect return value  is a data frame but R say it is list: SEXP Julia_R_MD_NA_DataFrame(jl_value_t* Var) {  SEXP ans,names,rownames;  char evalcmd[4096];  int i;  const char* dfname="DataFrameName0tmp";  jl_set_global(jl_main_module, jl_symbol(dfname), (jl_value_t*)Var);  //Get Frame cols   sprintf(evalcmd,"size(%s,2)",dfname);  jl_value_t*

Despite a long search on the archives, I couldn't find how to do this. Thanks in advance for what is likely a simple issue. I have a data set where the first column is name (i.e., 'Joe Smith', 'Jane Doe', etc). The following columns are data associated with that person. I have many people with multiple rows. What I want is to get a new data frame out with only the people who

Hello, I have created a vector with 2 elements(see code below) I am calling this function many thousands of times (hundreds of thousands) after some time i get *** caught segfault *** address 0x5, cause 'memory not mapped' However, if i dont set the R_NamesSymbol, I do not get any such error. Am I doing this correctly? Thank you Saptarshi ==CODE=== // kxp and usar are two SEXP's

Hi, I'm troubleshooting some native code on Windows that very occationally (and semi-randomly) crashes R. Already looked at "everything", I just want to double check that it is safe to UNPROTECT() allocated variables as soon as they are assigned to, say, a PROTECTed list. >From (R v2.3.0) Section 5.7.1 "Handling the effects of garbage collection" in "Writing R

I'm continuing my work on finding speedups in generalized inverse calculations in some simulations. It leads me back to .C and .Call, and some questions I've never been able to answer for myself. It may be I can push some calculations to LAPACK in or C BLAS, that's why I realized again I don't understand the call by reference or value semantics of .Call Why aren't users of

I need to identify repeated items in p$a with different s and d entries on the same row, given that the "0" items should not be considered in the comparison. Here is an example: 1. Items 3 and 5 in p$a are repeated with different entries of s and d, should be removed. 2. Item 2 was repeated twice but with a 0 once for s on row 2 and a second time for d on row 6, hence 2 should be

Hi Morgan, So if the goal is output identical to calling factor, one thing youc an do is construct and evaluate a call to the R-level factor function. That would work and be guaranteed to meet your requirement. The factor function is implemented with R code, without even any direct calls down to C code, so there isn't any C level functionality already there that you could try to hit

Hi! I want to return a matrix. The code does the R interfacing. This version does it fine.
