Aha... Hadn't noticed that stringsAsFactors only works via as.is in read.table. Yes, the doc should probably be fixed. The code probably not -- packages loading different data sets depending on user options is an even worse idea than hav?ng the option in the first place... (I don't mean having the possibility, I mean the default.stringsAsFactor thing). In general, read.table() gets

Is someone on-list authorized and willing to make the documentation change? I suppose I could learn what it takes to be a "player", but for such a trivial fix, it probably is overkill. Dissenting opinions?

Hi, In support of reproducible research at my Institute, I seek an approach to re-creating the R environments in which an analysis has been conducted. By which I mean, the exact version of R and the exact version of all packages used in a particular R session. I am seeking comments/criticism of this as a goal, and of the following outline of an approach: === When all the steps to an workflow

Hi R-devel, tcltk devel, and sqldf devel, The transcript below shows how loading the tcl/tk library in under R causes subprocesses to ignore SIGPIPE. I am including the developer of the (wonderful) sqldf package since it requires tcltk and you might like to make this dependence optional to the user (at least until this is fixed in tcltk). Am I mistaken in calling this a 'bug'? Any

What the <bleep> are you on about? data() does many things, only some of which call read.table() et al., and the ones that do have no special treatment of stringsAsFactors. -pd > On 18 Feb 2016, at 21:25 , Cook, Malcolm <MEC at stowers.org> wrote: > > Hiya, > > Probably been debated elsewhere.... > > I note that R's `data` function does not respect

Hiya, Probably been debated elsewhere.... I note that R's `data` function does not respect default.stringsAsFactors By my lights, it should, especially as it is documented to call read.table, which DOES respect. Oh, but: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/stringsAsFactors-FALSE-tp921891p921893.html Compelling. I have to agree. So, I change my mind. By my lights, `data` should then be

I am intrigued by the possibility of using R as the SHELL in a (Gnu) makefile (instead of /bin/sh). (c.f. http://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/make.html#Choosing-the-Shell) Well, rather, I would like the makefile's SHELL to be a command which communicated with an R process. The makefile targets/prerequistes would, as always, be OS files, which would be written/read using standard R file

I like to use markdown's reference links with the implicit name syntax. It allows keeping a table of links seperate from the referencing link. However, what I don't like is that I have no way of (optionally) including the table of links in the markdown's output. For instance, in the example: I get 10 times more traffic from [Google][] than from [Yahoo][] or [MSN][]. [google]:

Hi, I am trying to create a loess smooth from hydrologic data. My goal is to create a smooth line that describes discharge at a certain point in time. I have done this using the 'lowess' function and had no problem, but I'm having some difficulty with loess. I am inputting the date ('date') and discharge ('q') values using the 'scan' function, then inputting

I'm trying to load Affy Annotation data from an Access database into R using RODBC. This has worked fine for quite some time. The bug seems to be correlated to RODBC versions 1.1-7 and later. Works fine: R 2.2.0 with RODBC 1.1-4; R 2.3.0 or R 2.4.1 with RODBC 1.1-6 Fails: R 2.3.1 with RDOBC 1.1-7; R 2.4.1 with RODC 1.1-7 or 1.1-8 Details ===== This works fine: Version 2.2.0

Use all.equal instead of identical if you want to gloss over integer/numeric class differences and minor floating point differences (and a host of others).

I have a small Visual Basic app for a prom programmer which uses the parallel port (lpt1) to control the programmer. It uses a third party dll (io.dll) to give vb direct access to the hardware. I cannot get wine to see that port at all. I have given myself rw mode to /dev/parport0, there is a link (ln -s /dev/parport0 lpt1) in ~/me/.wine/dosdevices as described in the user notes. The app is a
