I came across this code in library.R package <- as.character(substitute(package)) where package is the first argument to the "library" function. I've been racking my brains to understand why this is not just an elaborate (and ineffcient) way to write: package <- "package" E.g. > package <- as.character(substitute(package)) > package [1]

Should simplify2array(higher=TRUE) treat 1 by 1 matrices differently than others? I expected a 3-dimensional array from all of the following 3 examples, not just the last 2. > str(simplify2array(list(array(11,c(1,1)), array(21,c(1,1))), higher=TRUE)) num [1:2] 11 21 > str(simplify2array(list(array(11:13,c(3,1)), array(21:23,c(3,1))), higher=TRUE)) int [1:3, 1, 1:2] 11 12 13 21 22

When is the R-3.2.5 binary for Mac OS X likely to show up? Mick Jordan

Is the mechanism by which packages are tested on CRAN described anywhere? Is it by any chance written in R? The FastR <https://bitbucket.org/allr/fastr/wiki/Home> team is interested in running a virtual CRAN where we can test all the CRAN packages on FastR. Thanks Mick Jordan [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Is it possible to configure and build an R without any graphics support. I..e no grDevices or graphics packages? I tried "--with-x=no --with-cairo=no --with-grDevices=no --with-graphics=no" but it is still building grDevices. My problem is that I am using experimenting with a compiler that cannot compile the Objective-C file, qdCocoa.m, and I don't need graphics for this

Hi experts. I have a tibble? with a column containing a nested list (<list<list<double>>>? data type to be specific). Looks something like the following (but in R/Arrow? format): ID Nestedvals 001 [[1]](1,0.1)[[2]](2,0.2)[[3]](3,0.3)[[4]](4,0.4)[[5]](5,0.5) 002 [[1]](1,0.1)[[2]](2,0.2)[[3]](3,0.3)[[4]](4,0.4) 003 [[1]](1,0.1)[[2]](2,0.2)[[3]](3,0.3) 004 [[1]](1,0.1)[[2]](2,0.2)

I'm confused by this: > identical(function() {}, function() {}) [1] FALSE Yet, after loading the Matrix package (which redefines det), the following is checked (in library.checkConflicts): > identical(get("det", baseenv()), get("det", asNamespace("Matrix")), ignore.environment=T) [1] TRUE I've looked at the code in identical.c and for closures it

Hello, After I limited max memory usage in one domain, how could I reset mem-max to no-limit? Besides, I used "xm create -F xxxx.xm" to create a domain successfully. But when I shut it down, this domain disappear from "xm list". Why that happened? Thanks. Vincent

Linux: > x<-c("0","1");y<-c("a","-1"); x<y [1] TRUE TRUE Mac: x<-c("0","1");y<-c("a","-1"); x<y [1] TRUE FALSE On both systems, LC_COLLATE/LC_CTYPE/LANG are set to en_US.UTF-8 In Java,FWIW, I get the Mac answer if I use String.compareTo and the Linux answer if I use Collator.compareTo, but

As I understand https://stat.ethz.ch/R-manual/R-devel/library/base/html/sys.parent.html sys.function(n) returns the function associated with stack frame n. Since frame 0 is defined as .GlobalEnv which is not associated with a function, I would expect this to always return NULL. However, it does not: > sys.function() NULL > f <- function(x) sys.function(x) > f(0) function(x)

I am pleased to announce the release of GUK (Project Guest VM Microkernel), which is an enhanced version of Mini-OS that underpins the Guest VM virtual machine. Guest VM is an implementation of the Java platform, written almost completely in Java, running directly on Xen. Although GUK was developed specifically for Guest VM, it can be used stand-alone in a similar way to Mini-OS. The main

I need some help understanding a problem running the tests on the 'digest' package. Initially, I got the message that the 'knitr' package was needed to run vignettes: Running vignettes for package ?digest? Error in loadVignetteBuilder(vigns$pkgdir) : vignette builder 'knitr' not found So I installed the knitr package and all its dependents (?mime?, ?stringi?,

I was surprised by this: R --interactive -e 'interactive()' bash-3.2$ R -q -e 'interactive()' --interactive > interactive() [1] FALSE > as the command options document says that --interactive should force interactive=TRUE: " When *R* is run in a terminal (via |Rterm.exe| on Windows), it assumes that it is interactive if ?stdin? is connected to a (pseudo-)terminal

I am trying to build R-3.2.4 on an Oracle Enterprise Linux system, where I have previously built R-3.1.3 and predecessors without problems. I ran "./configure --with-x=no" ok. The make fails in src/extra/xz with what looks like a Makefile problem: liblzma.a: $(liblzma_a_OBJECTS) $rm -f $@ $(AR) -cr $@ $(liblzma_a_OBJECTS) $(RANLIB) $@ What I see in the make log is:
