thanks for the tip Jan. However it would be nice if I didn't have to handle this myself for all of my packages. (and teach my students how to do that) BTW I tried to disable staged installation, and the issue still happens: th798 at cmp2986 MINGW64 ~/projects/max-generalized-auc (master) $ R_INSTALL_STAGED=FALSE R --vanilla -e

I tend to avoid using as.<type> functions on lists, since they act oddly in several ways. E.g, if the list "L" consists entirely of scalar elements then as.numeric(L) acts like as.numeric(unlist(L)) but if any element is not a scalar there is an error. as.character() does not seem to make a distinction between the all-scalar and not-all-scalar cases but does various things with

FWIW the code in S4Vectors that does what your subset_ROW() does is: https://github.com/Bioconductor/S4Vectors/blob/04cc9516af986b30445e99fd1337f13321b7b4f6/R/subsetting-utils.R#L466-L476 (This is the default "extractROWS" method.) Except

by() does not always return a list. In Gabe's example, it returns an integer, thus it is coerced to a list. as.list() means that it should be a VECSXP, not necessarily with "list" in the class attribute.

Totally agree with that. H.

The link you posted used the same inputs as in my example. If that is not what you meant maybe a different example is needed. Regards.

I have a use case where I would like to create an SEXP around an existing buffer that is managed by R, thus avoiding a copy operation. If I have something like: void *p = (void*) RAW(PROTECT(Rf_allocVector(RAWSXP, n))); ... additional maniupulation ... SEXP x = somefunc(SXPTYPE, n, p); // ???? Is there a "placement" constructor available? (I have arranged for the corresponding

Hello R-devel, Best wishes in the new year. I am writing to kindly request new R function so NA_real_ can be more easily detected. Currently if one wants to test for NA_real_ (but not NaN) then extra work has to be done: `is.na(x) & !is.nan(x)` Required functionality is already at C level so to address my request there is not that much to do. Kevin Ushey made a nice summary of current R C api

Hi All, I was looking for a function to find a small matrix inside a larger matrix in R similar to the one described in the following link: https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/194708-index-a-small-matrix-in-a-larger-matrix I couldn't find anything. The above function can be seen as a "generalisation" of the "which" function as well as the function described

There is still the situation where **both** 'sep' and 'collapse' are specified: > paste(integer(0), "nth", sep="", collapse=",") [1] "nth" In that case 'recycle0' should **not** be ignored i.e. paste(integer(0), "nth", sep="", collapse=",", recycle0=TRUE) should return the empty string

I agree with Herve, processing collapse happens last so collapse=non-NULL always leads to a single character string being returned, the same as paste(collapse=""). See the altPaste function I posted yesterday. Bill Dunlap TIBCO Software wdunlap tibco.com On Fri, May 22, 2020 at 9:12 AM Herv? Pag?s <hpages at fredhutch.org> wrote: > I think that > >

"nana" is meant to express "NA, really NA". Your suggestion sounds good.

Dario, What version of R are you using. In my mildly old 3.4.0 installation and in the version of Revel I have lying around (also mildly old...) I don't see the behavior I think you are describing > b = by(1:2, 1:2, identity) > class(as.list(b)) [1] "list" > sessionInfo() R Under development (unstable) (2017-12-19 r73926) Platform: x86_64-apple-darwin15.6.0 (64-bit)
