In my .Rprofile for Windows, I had the following functions defined to mirror a few features I miss from linux: (a) replace setwd() with a version that stashes the current directory so it can be easily restored (b) writes a short version of the current R directory to the Windows title bar: I can always see where I am, with multiple Rgui windows. (c) creates a cd() shorthand for setwd(), but

Hello, assignInNamespace refuses to assign an object to a name that is not already used in the namespace. Something like this would make it possible: --- src/library/utils/R/objects.R (revision 56024) +++ src/library/utils/R/objects.R (working copy) @@ -252,8 +252,9 @@ stop("environment specified is not a package") ns <- asNamespace(substring(nm, 9L))

A coworker got tired of having to type 'yes' or 'no' after quitting R: he never wanted to save the R workspace when quitting. So he added assignInNamespace lines to his .Rprofile file to replace base::q with one that, by default, called the original with save="no".. utils::assignInNamespace(".qOrig", base::q, "base")

[Env: Win XP, R 2.14.2, R 2.15.0] I have a replacement function for setwd() in my .Rprofile which displays the current R path in the R window title. It no longer works in R 2.15.x, giving the error below. Worse, the error prevents the rest of my .Rprofile script from completing. Is there some way to rescue this, i.e., preserve this behavior in R 2.15? If not, how can I modify my script so it

Hello - I'm currently maintaining an R package that uses a name space, and am also starting a new R package that will use a name space. According the the R News June 2003 issue, "Adding a name space to a package may complicate debugging code ... it is a good idea not to add a name space to a package until it is completely debugged, and to remove the name space if further debugging

Brian Ripley recently replied to a comment of mine by referring to a function 'assignInNamespace', which I had not heard of. Is there a good write up on name spaces in R? There are little tidbits in the manuals on the R site, but I found nothing substative. I'd like to understand these better. Terry Therneau

for the moment, I'm using: .onAttach <- function(libname, pkgname) { .bbg.db.conn <<- dbConnect(dbDriver("PostgreSQL"), user="blah","blah") } .onUnload <- function(libpath) { dbDisconnect(.bbg.db.conn) } which results in a hidden global variable in the global environment. I would prefer to make the assignment only in the package namespace.

In my .Rprofile I have the following functions which display the current directory in the main R window title bar, and modify base::setwd() to keep this up to date. I like this because I can always tell where I am in the file system. cd <- function(dir) { base::setwd(dir) utils::setWindowTitle( short.path(base::getwd()) ) } short.path <- function(dir, len=2) { np

Referring to "Using R for Data Analysis and Graphics" by J H Maindonald, and available from the R site, I found the example on p.30 non-working: > stem(qqnorm(possum$hdlngth)) Error in stem(qqnorm(possum$hdlngth)) : 'x' must be numeric Since qqnorm(possum$hdlngth) plots, and > class(possum$hdlngth) [1] "numeric" , the problem must be here: >

Hello R friends, I'm wondering why I get funny qqnorm() results. It seems that they should all be reflected in the normal qqline(). For instance: if I qqnorm() bimodal or uniform data I get a sigmoidal in which the qqnorm() points lie above the qqline() at -ve theoretical quantiles, and the qqnorm() points lie below the qqline() at +ve theoretical quantiles. Yet I expect such platykurtic

I know this topic has had plenty of discussion in the last couple of days, but.... I've been trying to compare the effects of different fitted methods for systems of equations (OLS, SUR, 2SLS, 3SLS ) and would like to compare the residual plots (easy) and the qqnorm/qqplot of the fits for the different fitted methdos. For example, qqnorm( residuals( lm( q ~ p + f + a ) ) ) par( new = TRUE )

I want to qqnorm every column in a table. When I try the first column using qqnorm(table$column1), it worked. But when I use qqnorm(table[1]), it tells me "Error in stripchart(x1, ...) : invalid plotting method". What happen? How can I make a function that qqnorms every column? thanks a lot. -jiong The email message (and any attachments) is for the sole use of the intended

Dear List, invoking qqnorm-plots in Version 63.3 produces funny things: using the option `type="s"´ on qqnorm should give a nice *line* of observed quantiles. Now, the line is walking along in order to the points index instead from lowest to highest, wich makes funny slopes. try x <- table(rnorm(1000) # or similar and qqnorm(x,type="s") # in 0.63.2 and 63.3 Well, the
