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]

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! 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

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 =

Hello: rJava works for me under 32-bit but under not 64-bit R; see below. Suggestions? Thanks, Spencer > library(rJava) Error : .onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for 'rJava', details: call: stop("No CurrentVersion entry in '", key, "'! Try re-installing Java and make sure R and Java have matching architectures.")

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

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

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

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 <-

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",

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

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, I have two dataframes (Dataframe_A, Dataframe_B) with the same no. of columns. The first column of both the dataframes contains unique names. I wish to have Dataframe_A with the rows that are NOT common to Dataframe_B. With merge (), it is possible to get the common rows or to merge rows, but I am not quite sure how to do it in a simpler way. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.

Hi! I'm using R2HTML in my RcmdrPlugin.temis package to output localized strings to a HTML file. Thus, I insert a simple header at the top of the file to specify what encoding is used; if I don't do that, Web browsers assume it is latin1, which is not always true. My problem is, I could not find a way to detect what encoding is used by R2HTML in the most general case. R2HTML simply calls

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
