rank(, ties.method="last")
Hi,
I ran into a problem where I actually need rank(, ties.method="last"). It would
be great to have this feature in base and it's also simple to get (see below).
Thanks & cheers,
Marius
rank2 <- function (x, na.last = TRUE, ties.method = c("average",
"first", "last", # new "last"

Part of fastpass in 'sort.list' can make sorting unstable
In the code of functions 'order' and 'sort.list' in R 3.5.0 alpha (in https://svn.r-project.org/R/branches/R-3-5-branch/src/library/base/R/sort.R), in "fastpass, take advantage of ALTREP metadata", there is "try the reverse since that's easy too...". If it succeeds, ties are reordered, violating stability of sorting.
Example:
x <- sort(c(1, 1, 3))
x # 1

Coercion of 'exclude' in function 'factor' (was 'droplevels' inappropriate change)
I am basically fine with the change.
How about using just the following?
if(!is.character(exclude))
exclude <- as.vector(exclude, typeof(x)) # may result in NA
x <- as.character(x)
It looks simpler and is, more or less, equivalent.
In factor.Rd, in description of argument 'exclude', "(when \code{x} is a \code{factor} already)" can be removed.

Undocumented 'use.names' argument to c()
By "an argument named 'use.names' is included for concatenation", I meant something like this, that someone might try.
> c(as.Date("2016-01-01"), use.names=FALSE)
use.names
"2016-01-01" "1970-01-01"
See, 'use.names' is in the output. That's precisely because 'c.Date' doesn't have 'use.names', so

Issues of R_pretty in src/appl/pretty.c
Examples similar to
pretty(c(-1,1)*1e300, n = 1e9, min.n = 1)
with smaller 'n':
pretty(c(-1,1)*1e304, n = 1e5, min.n = 1)
pretty(c(-1,1)*1e306, n = 1e3, min.n = 1)
A report on 'pretty' when working with integers, similar to what led to change of 'seq' fuzz, is https://bugs.r-project.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=15137

Issues of R_pretty in src/appl/pretty.c
Yes, they work now.
I mentioned them partly because the commit description said overflow for large n and partly to be considered for regression tests.

stopifnot() does not stop at first non-TRUE argument
>From an example in http://www.uni-muenster.de/ZIV.BennoSueselbeck/s-html/helpfiles/nargs.html , number of arguments in '...' can be obtained by

I now realize that sys.call() doesn't expand '...' when the function is called with '...'. It just returns the call as is. If 'stopifnot' uses sys.call() instead of match.call() , the

Function 'factor' issues
I am trying once again.
By just changing
f <- match(xlevs[f], nlevs)
to
f <- match(xlevs, nlevs)[f]
, function 'factor' in R devel could be made more consistent and back-compatible. Why not picking it?

stopifnot
Another possible shortcut definition:
assert <- function(exprs)
do.call("stopifnot", list(exprs = substitute(exprs), local = parent.frame()))
After thinking again, I propose to use
??? ? ? stop(simpleError(msg, call = if(p <- sys.parent()) sys.call(p)))
- It seems that the call is the call of the frame where stopifnot(...) is evaluated. Because that is the correct context, I

'parallel' package changes '.Random.seed'
Hi,
I've implemented parallelization in one of my packages using the
'parallel' package -- many thanks for providing it!
In my package I'm importing 'parallel' and so added it to the
DESCRIPTION file's 'Import:' tag and also added a
'importFrom("parallel", ...)' statement in the NAMESPACE file.
Parallelization works nicely, but my package

'droplevels' inappropriate change
In R devel r71157, 'droplevels' documentation, in "Arguments" section, says this about argument 'exclude'.
passed to factor(); factor levels which should be excluded from the result even if present. Note that this was implicitly NA in R <= 3.3.1 which did drop NA levels even when present in x, contrary to the documentation. The current default is compatible with x[ ,

Extract.data.frame.Rd about $.data.frame
The statement in R devel:
There is no \code{data.frame} method for \code{$}, so \code{x$name}
uses the default method which treats \code{x} as a list (with no partial
matching of column names). The replacement method (for \code{$}) checks
\code{value} for the correct number of rows, and replicates it if necessary.
The added "(with no partial matching of column names)" is wrong.

stopifnot() does not stop at first non-TRUE argument
While you are fiddling with stopifnot(), please consider changing the form
of the error thrown so that it includes the caller's call. The change
would be from something like
stop( <<the message>> )
to
stop(simpleError( <<the message>>, sys.call(-1)))
For the following code
f <- function(x, y) {
stopifnot(x > y)
x - y
}
g <- function(x,
