similar to: can't get quota working. I use static userdb driver.

Hi, I thought it would be convenient if the check.names argument to read.table, which currently can only be TRUE/FALSE, could take a function value as well. If the function is supplied it should be used instead of the default make.names. Here is an example where it can come in handy. I tend to keep my data in coma-separated files with a header line. The header line is prefixed with a comment

Hi, Don't know if it belongs to r-devel or r-help, but since I am planning to alter some of R's internal code I am sending it here. The existing implementation of the sample() function, when the optional 'prob' argument is given, is quite inefficient. The complexity is O(sampleSize * universeSize), see ProbSampleReplace() and ProbSampleNoReplace() in random.c. This makes the

Dear R-Users, I have a data file with timestamps and I wanted to use POSIXct time data type to represent the respective column. I played around with the type and found a couple of issues: * there seems to be no direct way of reading datetimes into a variable. Let's say this is my file "1992-02-27 23:03:20 PST" "1992-02-27 22:29:56 PST" "1992-01-14 01:03:30 PST"

Hello I'm looking for a wayy to modify extensions.conf It seems that PutConfig AMI command is not supposed to work on extensionsq.conf Any ideas? Thanks Vadim

When LLVM's configure finds a usable <pthread.h>, it prefers to use that rather than the home-grown stuff. However if LLVM is configured with --disable-pthreads, both mingw flavors produce the same results. BTW, I've tried to quantify the slowdown: a quick test indicates that LLVM build that uses pthreads is about 10% slower than the one which doesn't. This is less that I

Hi guys, what distribution do you recommend, if you want to run producive systems on it. i got a cluster with two sles10sp2 nodes - but i''m not that satisfied. The migration of my windows-systems are not working in an acceptable way and the pv-drivers for win of suse are not a speed boost at all. Well I could spend big money for Xen Enterprise or VirtualIron - but - do I really have to

Dear R-Users, I need to find a smooth function f() and coefficients a_i that give the best fit to y ~ a_0 + a_1*f(x_1) + a_2*f(x_2) Note that it is the same non-linear transformation f() that is applied to both x_1 and x_2. So my first question is how can I do it in R? A more general question is this: suppose I have a utility function U(a_i, f()), where f() is say a spline. Is there a general

Hi, I am looking for an efficient way of skipping big chunks of lines on a connection (not necessarily at the beginning of the file). One way is to use read lines, e.g. readLines(1e6), but a) this incurs the overhead of construction of the return char vector and b) has a (fairly remote) potential to blow up the memory. Another way would be to use scan(), e.g. scan(con, skip=1e6, nmax=0)

Hi, Is it possible to modify an object in the parent.env (as opposed to re-bind)? Here is what I tried: > x = 1:3 # try to modify the first element of x from within a new environment > local(get("x", parent.env(environment()))[1] <- NA) Error in eval(expr, envir, enclos) : Target of assignment expands to non-language object # On the other hand retrieval works just fine >

Hi, As was discussed earlier in another thread and as documented in R-exts .Call() should not be interruptible by Ctrl-C. However the following code, which spends most of its time inside mkChar, turned out to be interruptible on RH-7.3 R-1.8.1 gcc-2.96: #include <Rinternals.h> #include <R.h> SEXP foo0(const SEXP nSexp) { int i, n; SEXP resSexp; if (!isInteger(nSexp))

I am not seeing this happening, at least not for unreachables that follow calls to 'noreturn' functions.

Hi, This is not an R question per ce, but I feel like this is a right community to ask it. As a part of our work we run a lot of non-interactive computational jobs. To increase the throughput we would like to distribute the load over the entire network and we are looking at Linux network as a platform. Ideally we would like to be able to submit a job to the network, rather than to a computer, and

Hi, I tried to write the dim method for the list class, but R doesn't seem to dispatch to it: > dim.list = function(x) c(length(x[[1]]), length(x)) > dim(list(1)) NULL > dim.list(list(1)) [1] 1 1 What is the correct way of registering dim.list with .Primitive("dim")?

Hi, Having just found an ABI conformance bug in a compiler front-end, I am curious: is the state of target-independent argument lowering in LLVM still the same as when this thread was taking place?: http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/pipermail/llvmdev/2013-February/thread.html#59387 Vadim -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Hi, I have two data sources. One records time in PST time zone, the other in GMT. I want to compute the difference between the two, but don't see how. Here is an example where I compute time difference between identical times each (meant to be) relative to its time zone. > as.POSIXlt("2000-05-10 10:15:00", "PST") - as.POSIXlt("2000-05-10 10:15:00",

Well, "integer" is also a storage.mode in R. It is not immediately clear which meaning the help page uses. I guess some extra elaboration would be helpful.

Hi Yaron, Not sure I understand your question. Wasn't <mutex> one of the more important C++11 features that LLVM would like to use?

Hi, What is the reason for seq.Date to require the 'by' argument and not to default it to 1 in the example below? > seq(from=as.Date("1996-01-01"), to=as.Date("1996-12-01")) Error in seq.Date(from = as.Date("1996-01-01"), to = as.Date("1996-12-01")) : exactly two of `to', `by' and `length.out' / `along.with' must be specified

Hi, I am trying to figure a way to allocate a string SEXP so that gc() won't ever collect it. Here is a little bit of a background. Suppose I want to write a .Call-callable function that upon each call returns the same value, say mkChar("foo"): SEXP getFoo() { return mkChar("foo"); } The above implementation doesn't take advantage of the fact that
