Hello, sorry for not being clear enough. My problem is represented with the following code, running on OSX: mkdir ~/test ln -s ~/test ~/testlink touch ~/test/foo Rscript -e 'Sys.readlink(c("~/test/foo", "~/testlink/foo")); normalizePath(c("~/test/foo","~/testlink/foo"))' I expected `Sys.readlink` to show the same output as `normalizePath`. Also,

Hello together, the function `Sys.readlink` uses the system's readlink command to resolve symlink paths. On OSX/BSD the command has a different meaning than on Linux [1]. There exists the tool 'realpath', which seems suitable for the task, at least applied at the command line level [2]. It is used in `normalizePath`. I suggest (at least the latter) to * use realpath instead readlink

Hello list! Let's construct a matrix / data.frame with 0 columns, but > 0 rows, and non-NULL rownames. Then, call is.na() on both the data.frame and the matrix. We find that is.na.data.frame() gives an error. When row.names are removed, is.na.data.frame() returns NULL. I think that the NULL result is also wrong. From ?is.na: The method ?is.na.data.frame? returns a logical matrix with

Hi Dario, Here are another couple of other fun functions you can utilize besides the ones Dirk recommended :) extSoftVersion() grSoftVersion() Below is an example: > grSoftVersion() cairo libpng jpeg "1.10.2" "1.6.16" "9.1" libtiff "LIBTIFF, Version 4.0.3"

I found three little typos in the ?regex manual. Apologies for the lack of a diff, as the utility is not (yet) installed on this machine. 1. "There is a also" should probably be "There is also". 2. In the list of functions following "This section covers the regular expressions"..., "grep" appears twice. The other one should probably be "grepl". 3.

I get an error when running "make check" after building R-devel r70629 on Ubuntu 14.04. Here are the relevant lines in the file "reg-tests-1c.Rout.fail": > ## m1z uses match(x, *) with length(x) == 1 and failed in R 3.3.0 > ## PR#16909 - a consequence of the match() bug; check here too: > dv <- data.frame(var?1 = 1:3, var?2 = 3); dv[,"var?2"]

Hi I have many excel files were the Date field was not declared as date, so the dates look like this: 1/2/1978 I know that the format is day/month/year How can I make R change this to Date format? If I use strftime, I get wrong dates: dataset=c("1/2/1978") strftime(dataset,"%d/%m/%Y") "19/02/0001" Thanks in advance.

When 'getOption("checkPackageLicense")' is 'TRUE' and the user calls 'library(grid)' for the first time, R asks the user to either accept or decline the package license. This should not be necessary as the package license is "Part of R ..." with "..." denoting the R version number, and R is free and open source. The unnecessary license

Hello, I'm trying to rebuild a package (using R version 3.3.2 (2016-10-31)) that has not seen any changes since it was last built without problems in previous R versions.

It seems there is a problem in tests/d-p-q-r-tst-2.R (R-devel r79091): NA / NaN mismatch is not allowed by a test on lines 590--592, but the comment suggests otherwise. A run of "make check" fails there when tested on a Raspberry Pi with Raspberry Pi OS (based on Debian Buster): all 'NaN' is expected, but all 'NA' is returned when testing the function 'rf()' with
