RODBC for 64-bit R with 32-bit Access
Hello Folks,
I do hope this is the correct place to post (and not in R-SIG-DB). I have
spent the better part of a day searching for an answer to this question, and
have yet to resolve it.
I am trying to query an .accdb Access database (with 32-bit Office 2007
currently residing on the machine) with 64-bit R via RODBC. There seem to
be some conflicting accounts as to whether or not this is

extract indep vars from formula
Hello,
I'm trying to extract the independent variables from a formula. The
closest I've been able to come, aside from rolling my own, is the following:
> a = y ~ b * x
> attr(terms(formula(a)),"variables")
The reason I'm doing this is that I'm building a grid of points that I
use to construct a 3-d model prediction surface in rgl. If there are

backreferences in gregexpr
Hi Folks,
I'm trying to extract just the backreferences from a regex.
> temp = "abcd1234abcd1234"
> regmatches(temp, gregexpr("(?:abcd)(1234)", temp))
[[1]]
[1] "abcd1234" "abcd1234"
What I would like is:
[1] "1234" "1234"
Note: I know I can just match 1234 here, but the actual example is
complicated enough that I have to

strange date problem - May 3, 1992 is NA
> is.na(strptime("5/2/1992", format="%m/%d/%Y"))
[1] FALSE
> is.na(strptime("5/3/1992", format="%m/%d/%Y"))
[1] TRUE
Any idea what's going on with this? Running strptime against all dates
from around 1946, only 5/3/1992 was converted as "NA". Even stranger,
it still seems to have a value associated with it (even though is.na

summarize dataframe based on multiple cols, not their combinations
Hi folks,
I'm trying to figure out how to get summarized data based on multiple
columns. However, instead of giving summaries for every combination of
categorical columns, I want it for each value of each categorical column
regardless of the other columns. I could do this with three different
commands, but i'm wondering if there's a more elegant way that I'm
missing. Thanks!

sweave tables as images?
Hello folks,
I've been on a journey trying to figure out how to manage documents that
are amenable to sharing and editing, but that contain dynamic content
generated by R. I've come to the following solution: I use Sweave to
generate labeled png & pdf figures, and I "Insert & Link" those figures
as "Pictures" in a Word 2010 doc. Thus, when data or code

translate vector of numbers to indicies of 0/1 matrix
Hello All,
Searched around, haven't found a decent solution.
I'd like to translate a vector of numbers to a matrix (or to a list of
vectors) such that the vector values would serve as indicies of the 1's
in an otherwise-zero-filled matrix (or list of vectors). For example:
> a = c(1,3,3,4)
# perform operation
[,1] [,2] [,3] [,4]
[1,] 1 0 0 0
[2,] 0 0 1

summaryBy: transformed variable on RHS of formula?
Hi Folks,
I'm trying to cut my data inside the summaryBy function. Perhaps
formulas don't work that way? I'd like to avoid adding another column
if possible, but if I have to, I have to. Any ideas?
Thanks,

dot products
Hello,
I need to take a dot product of each row of a dataframe and a vector.
The number of columns will be dynamic. The way I've been doing it so
far is contorted. Is there a better way?
dotproduct <- function(dataf, v2) {
apply(t(t(as.matrix(a)) * v2),1,sum) #contorted!
}
df = data.frame(a=c(1,2,3),b=c(4,5,6))
vec = c(4,5)
dotproduct(df, vec)

reproduction archives
Hello Folks,
As some of my old code broke when an updated package changed its
interface, I started thinking about reproduction of analyses. It's not
good enough to save our code - we have to save the package versions
those analyses used as well as the R-core. I saw a couple references to
"reproduction archives" around, but nothing specific. Is there any good
way to package up

bigmemory for dataframes?
Hi Folks,
I've been bumping my head against the 4GB limit for 32-bit R. I can't
go to 64-bit R due to package compatibility issues (ROBDC - possible but
painful, xlsReadWrite - not possible, and others). I have a number of
big dataframes whose columns all sorts of data types - factor,
character, integer, etc. I run and save models that keep copies of the
modeled data inside the model

Symbolic references - passing variable names into functions
Hello All,
I am trying to write a function which would operate on columns of a
dataframe specified in parameters passed to that function.
f = function(dataf, col1 = "column1", col2 = "column2") {
dataf$col1 = dataf$col2 # just as an example
}
The above, of course, does not work as intended. In some languages one
can force evaluation of a variable, and then

How do Sweave users collaborate with Word users?
Hello All,
I'm getting my workflow switched over to Sweave, which is very cool.
However, I collaborate with folks (as many of you must as well) who use
Word to Track Changes amongst a group while crafting a paper. In the
simplest case, there will just be two people (one Sweave user and one
Word user) editing a paper.
I'm wondering, how do Sweave users go about this? I could convert a

What is your preferred method to export tables (from ftable()) to Word?
Do you just export to a text file and then copy/paste? Or perhaps via

remove all terms with interaction factor in formula

I'm trying to find a way to remove all terms in a formula that contain a

For example, in the formula below, I'd like to remove all terms that

export dataframe's column classes to a list

Rgui maintains open file handles after Sweave error
Hello Folks,
When I run the document below through sweave, rgui.exe/rsession.exe
leaves a file handle open to the sweave-001.pdf graphic (as verified by
process explorer). Pdflatex.exe then crashes (with a Permission Denied
error) because the graphic file is locked.
This only seems to happen when there is an error in the sweave document.
When there are no errors, no file handles are left open.

auditing R's memory usage
Hi Folks,
I'm running 32-bit R 2.14 in RStudio on my Win 7 x64 system with 8GB
RAM. I'm getting memory problems as R wants to swallow more than the
4GB limit.
I think I'm stuck at 4GB as I have to use 32-bit R for a number of
packages (ODBC, etc). However, I doubt I really need to be using that
much memory - I'm probably being very sloppy in my memory management,
leaving lots
