When I am connecting to the server via ODBC I got the following error. >library(RODBC) channel <- odbcConnect("my server", uid="***" , case="*****") Error in switch(case, toupper = case <- 1L, tolower = case <- 2L, postgresql = case <- 2L, : Invalid case parameter: nochange | toupper | tolower | common db names How to fix this error? Thanks --

Hello, Does anyone know of a "slick" way to get R to convert a string which is all upper case to a string where the first letter in each word is upper case and all others are lower case? I suspect the solution is to begin by parsing the string, convert the appropriate letters to upper and lower case using "toupper" and "tolower", and then to paste the pieces back

Dear all, Given the following vector: > (z <- c('R project', 'hello world', 'something Else')) [1] "R project" "hello world" "something Else" I know how to obtain all capitals or all lower case letters: > tolower(z) [1] "r project" "hello world" "something else" > toupper(z) [1] "R

Hello R-help list,   I am looking for way to toggle the case of the characters like a flip-flop; that is from ''Hello'' to "hELLO" or vice versa.   I know that there are a number of functions like casefold, tolower, toupper, etc. but these functions change the case in an uniform way.   Thanks in advance,   Antonio Rivero Ostoic         Antonio Rivero Ostoic PhD Student,

Hi, all, I'm a newbie to R. I came across a problem when I tried to install R on an SGI machine which is running IRIX64 6.5. I have successfully run configure, but when I tried to run "make"(or "gmake"), errors came out. Following is the error message. Does someone has experiences in the R's installation on IRIX ? Any hints will be greatly appreciated ! Thanks in

Hi All, I am trying to match two character arrays (email lists) using either pmatch(), match() or charmatch() functions. However the function is "missing" some matches due to differences in the cases of some letters between the two arrays. Is there any way to disable case sensitivity or is there an entirely better way to match two character arrays that have identical entries but written

Hi R users, I have a list: > x $A [1] "a" "b" "c" $B [1] "b" "c" $C [1] "c" I want to convert it to a lowercase-to-uppercase list like this: > y $a [1] "A" $b [1] "A" "B" $c [1] "A" "B" "C" In a word, I want to reverse the list names and the elements under each

I would like to know how to convert a string with characters to all uppercase or all lowercase? If anyone could let me know if there exists a function in R for the conversion, that will be very helpful. Regards, Suman [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, all, I've been converting code from S-Plus ("S" for short) to R for a few weeks. Here are some differences I've found, aside from the big well-known ones (scoping, models, data storage) and the contents of Kurt Hornik's FAQ section 3.3.3. Let me start with the ones that seem like serious bugs or deficiencies: 1) LETTERS[c(NA,2)] in S is

In several places, openssh-2.9.9p2 passes a 'char' value to a ctype macro like 'isdigit'. This has undefined behavior on hosts with signed characters, if the character value happens to be negative. For example, isdigit('\200') expands to an array access that is a subscript error on hosts with signed characters where '\200' == -128. This leads to incorrect results,

Dear R People: Is there a function to convert a character string to all uppercase or all lowercase please? I'm sure that I've used one before but I'm drawing a blank.

Yes and no. Given your response it appears that "Proper Case" is not a term that everyone uses. In Excel there is a function "Proper" which in essence changes "this line into something like this" into "This Line Into Something Like This." My look at casefold seesm to be that is is a wrapper of two functions to change text into either Lower or Upper case.So

Hi, So far with the latest changes the projects I am trying to port works fine, except for a mismatch on what is considered the ansi behaviour of islower() in ctype.h: ----- i = 220 islower (i) = 0, ISLOWER (i) = 0 toupper (i) = 220, TOUPPER (i) = 220 i = 221 islower (i) = 0, ISLOWER (i) = 0 toupper (i) = 221, TOUPPER (i) = 221 i = 222 islower (i) = 0, ISLOWER (i) = 0 toupper (i) = 222, TOUPPER

Also in assign() there some arguments lacking in R such as 'frame' and 'where', though I guess that 'frame' in S may be similar to 'pos' in R.

Are you trying to assign a data frame to a single column in another data frame? Printing head(samples) tells us nothing about what data types you have, especially if the things that look like text are really factors that were created

 Hello everyone, I'm trying to change the name variables of a big dataset. Here's more than 300 variables. The point is that I have to match it with another dataset that have same variables, but in lowercase, the I can use rbind and do my work. Is there any function for changing uppercase or lowercase variables? Thank you in advance! José [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Colleagues Assume that I have a vector containing some text strings, some of which contain a particular character. I could like to apply "toupper" to the text before the character. For example (in this case, "|" is the particular character): ORIGINAL: TEXT <- c("aaaa", "bbb|cc", "|ddd") AFTER APPLICATION OF toupper: TEXT <-
