Hi, I found the following on Windows 2000/NT R Version 1.9.1 (2004-06-21) (also Version 1.9.0): The S4 group "Math" doesn't work as documented; i.e., "log", "log10", "gamma" and "lgamma" are included in the documentation but don't work. See example code below. Moreover, what about 'genericForPrimitive' which is used in

Hi John, Here is my code practicing. Please give me some advises. Thank you. Wu Gong # Extract the function string f.str <- sub("y~","",exprtext) # Get arglist from the text sp1 <- paste("\\",c(getGroupMembers(Arith),"(",")"),sep="") sp2 <- getGroupMembers(Math) sps <-

Hi, I'm trying to write a method such that my own classes can be used with the groups like "Summary" and "Math", but when I tried to look for examples or just wanted to get an idea of which functions are the members of a group, I found out that the function "getGroupMembers" is not present... I couldn't find an alternative function, if there is one. Does

Submitted for perusal, comment, improvements, and/or critique. The presentation is in 3 sections: motivation, code, and comment. Motivation: As a new-comer to R from matrix oriented Gauss and Mata, I miss the tools for using a vector (and operator) to ‘sweep’ across a matrix. Here is how these work. If M is I rows by J columns, then one entry corresponding to

I've rolled up R-2.0.1.tgz a short while ago. This is a maintenance version mainly to fix a number of minor bugs and issues. (Some rather nasty ones were Windows-specific - please check the CHANGES file for those.) You can get it from http://cran.r-project.org/src/base/R-2.0.1.tar.gz or wait for it to be mirrored at a CRAN site nearer to you. Binaries for various platforms will appear in

Hi, There seems to be a problem with setGroupGeneric() from package 'methods'. The symptoms are somewhat erratic, in the sense that small changes may lead to any of the following behaviours. 1.Package works without problems on Windows and installs on Linux but gives error when loaded with library(). 2.Package installs on both systems and gives error when loaded on any of them. 3.

Hi, Here is what I want to do: Labour = Class.create(); Labour.prototype = { initialize:function(name){ this.name = name; } } What I want to do is create a class called "Worker" which will inherit from "Labour", and the signature of "initialize" is "function(name, position)". May I ask what should do? Thank you all very much for the

Dear R Help, I work with the Sage project, and we are trying to improve the ability to use R through Sage. Most things work, but make check seems to cause problems on certain platforms, and now that we want to upgrade to 2.10.1 I thought we should ask for help! R builds just fine on both Mac and Linux, but some things in make check seem to break on certain Linux boxes that don't on Mac or

I am trying to configure Sendmail to do Generics lookups using LDAP. I added FEATURE(`genericstable', `LDAP') to my sendmail.mc file, and was planning on using an existing LDAP directory that should contain the information needed (currently doing aliasing). I do not know where to specify the non-standard attributes that we are using, and would prefer to not change my sendmail.cfdirectly

Now that 1.5 is released, some changes have been committed to the r-devel version of the methods package. They are mostly bug fixes (or making things work more as users would expect) in two areas: 1. new classes that extend one of the basic datatypes that have attributes but had no class attribute in S3 (e.g., "matrix" or "ts"). The previous code didn't handle the

Hi, Some generics in base that don't have the ... extra argument: rev(), t(), scale() and unlist(). Is there any plan to make these more reusable? I used to be interested in having a rev() method for my objects, but since I needed an extra argument for it, then I was forced to create my own generic instead. And because I didn't want to mask base::rev(), I chose another name too. The only

Hello, All: What would you say is the best succinct reference to cite on use of generic functions, especially S3 generics? I want to add an appropriate citation on this to a forthcoming book in the Springer "useR!" series (discussing the use of the 'fda' package, which uses the S3 standard). Thanks, Spencer Graves

I have classes A and B, where B contains A. In the implementation of the group generic for B I would like to use the corresponding group generic for A. Is there a way to do that? I would also appreciate any comments if what I'm trying to do seems like the wrong approach. Here's a stripped down example: setClass("A",
