Hello dear R-help mailing list. Looks like the same issue in Russian: library(RCurl) library(XML) u = " http://www.cian.ru/cat.php?deal_type=2&obl_id=1&room1=1" a = getURL(u) a # Here - the Russian is fine. a2 <- htmlParse(a) a2 # Here it is a mess... None of these seem to fix it: htmlParse(a, encoding = "windows-1251") htmlParse(a, encoding =

Hi! I was wondering whether anybody was looking at the bugs on Bugzilla. I'm asking because I've seen bugs tackled on the mailing list quite quickly, but two fully reproducible reports I've filed on Bugzilla haven't triggered any reaction in several weeks (for the older one). FWIW, these are: - Line goes beyond plot region

Hi! When inserting R plots into a document using odfWeave, I fought for a while to get Lattice plots use the same text size as base plots. I eventually discovered that specifying a point size via e.g. svg(pointsize=10) has no effect on Lattice plots. One needs to adjust the size manually via: trellis.par.set(fontsize=list(text=10, points=8)) This is also developed for both Lattice and ggplot2 by

HI Sridhar, Try this: #I saved the file as .csv. ?testMaster<-read.csv("test1Master.csv") ?test2Sorted<-read.csv("test2Sorted.csv") testMaster1<-testMaster[order(testMaster[,1]),] test2Sorted1<-test2Sorted[order(test2Sorted[,1]),] Combinedat<-as.matrix(merge(testMaster1,test2Sorted1,by="X")) ?rownames(Combinedat)<-Combinedat[,1]

Hello, All: What would it take to make ?iconv? portable? I ask, because I want to convert accented characters to vanilla ASCII, thereby converting, e.g., ?Ra?l? to ?Raul?, and Milan Bouchet-Valet suggested on R-help that I use 'iconv(x, ?", "ASCII//TRANSLIT?)?. This worked under Windows but failed on Linux and Mac. It?s part of the ?subNonStandardCharacters? function

Hi all, I know this issue has been discussed a few times in the past already, but Martin Maechler suggested in a bug report [1] that I raise it here. Basically, there is no (easy) way of printing NAs for all variables when calling xtabs() on factors. Passing 'exclude=NULL, na.action=na.pass' works for character vectors, but not for factors. > test <-

I need help with creating custom xml reader for use with the tm package. The objective is to crate a corpus for analysis. Files that I'm working with come from solr and are in a funky XML format never the less I'm able to parse the XML files using solrDocs.R function provided by Duncan Temple Lang. The problem I'm having that once I parse the document I need to create a custom

Hello All, Learning to use the odfWeave package. I really like the package. It has good documentation, makes some very nice looking tables, and seems to have lots of options for customizing output. There are a few things I'd like to do that don't seem to be covered in the documentation though. So I'm not sure if they're possible or not. Here's a list of some things I'd

Hi! It seems that read.table() in R 3.0.1 (Linux 64-bit) does not consider quoted integers as an acceptable value for columns for which colClasses="integer". But when colClasses is omitted, these columns are read as integer anyway. For example, let's consider a file named file.dat, containing: "1" "2" > read.table("file.dat",

Dear all, is there a function similar to extractAIC based on which I can extract the BIC (Bayesian Information Criterion) of a coxph model? I found some functions that provide BIC in other packages, but none of them seems to work with coxph. Thanks, Michael [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi! One of the three French CRAN mirrors, cran.cict.fr (Toulouse) seems to be down most of the time, and at least really not reliable. It has currently been down for 28 days (!) [1], and I know that over two years I've rarely been able to use it (no response, slow, hangs...). I'm sure the maintainers of this mirror mean well, but the result is really negative for French R users. This

Hi! I experience an error with an invalid UTF-8 character passed to gsub(..., perl=TRUE); the interesting point is that with perl=FALSE (the default) no error happens. (The character itself was read from an invalid HTML file.) Illustration of the error: gsub("a", "", "\U3e3965", perl=FALSE) # [1] "\U3e3965" gsub("a", "",

Hi! Yesterday I accidentally discovered this: > a <- LETTERS[1:5] > a [1] "A" "B" "C" "D" "E" > > a[1] <- factor(a[1]) > a [1] "1" "B" "C" "D" "E" BUT: > b <- factor(LETTERS[1:5]) > b [1] A B C D E Levels: A B C D E > b[1] <- factor(b[1]) > b [1] A B C D E

Hi list! I'm getting an error message when trying to fit an accelerated failure time parametric model using the aftreg() function from package eha: > Error in optim(beta, Fmin, method = "BFGS", control = list(trace = > as.integer(printlevel)), : > non-finite finite-difference value [2] This only happens when adding four specific covariates at the same time in the

Hi! Some time ago, I replaced calls to library() with calls to requireNamespace() in my package logmult, in order to follow the new CRAN policies. But I just noticed it broke jackknife/bootstrap using several workers via package parallel. The reason is that I'm running model replicates on the workers, and the formula includes non-standard terms like Mult() which are provided by gnm. If gnm

Hello, All: The vignette with the sos package used "upquote.sty", required for R Journal when it was published in 2009. Current CRAN policy disallows "upquote.sty", and I've so far not found a way to pass "R CMD check" with sos without upquote.sty. I changed sos.Rnw per an email exchange with Prof. Ripley without solving the problem; see below. The

Dear All, My main objective was to compute the distance of 100000 vectors from a set having 900 other vectors. I've a file named "seq_vec" containing 100000 records and 256 columns. While computing, the memory was not sufficient and resulted in error "cannot allocate vector of size 152.1Mb" So I've approached the problem in the following: Rather than reading the data

Hi all, I am having trouble loading a ff object previously saved in a different computer. I have both files .ffData and .RData, and the first of them is 13Mb large from which I know the data is therein. But when I try to ffload it, checkdir error: cannot create /home/_myUser_ Permission denied unable to process home/_myUser_/Rtempdir/ff1a831d500b8d.ff. and
