similar to: summary.default rounding on numeric seems inconsistent with other R behaviors

John, I had raised the matter ten years ago, and I was told that the topic was already very^3 old https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2006-September/042684.html there is some discussion on its origin and also a declaration of intents to change the default behaviour, which, unfortunately, remained a declaration. I agree that R could do better here, let's hope in less than ten years

It is the old story of defined behaviour and expected outcomes. Hard to change now. So I would suggest you do something like this in your ~/.Rprofile: R> smry <- function(...) summary(..., digits=6) R> smry(155555L) Min. 1st Qu. Median Mean 3rd Qu. Max. 155555 155555 155555 155555 155555 155555 R> Maybe call it Summary() instead. Dirk --

Thank you for your suggestion. I do know how to work around the issue. I usually build a fresh environment as a child of base-environment and then insurt the weights there. I was just trying to provide an example of the issue. emptyenv() can not be used, as it is needed for the eval (errors out even if weights are not used with "could not find function list"). For some applications

Hi John, Thanks, but the Bizzaro pipe comes with many flaws though : * It's not a single operator * It has a different precedence * It cannot be used in a subcall * The variable assigned to must be on the right * It doesn't trigger indentation when going to the line * It creates/overwrite a `.` variable in the worksace. And it doesn't deal gracefully with some lazy evaluation edge

Hello everybody, I have a problem with accessing class attributes. I think it might be due to namespace access restrictions or something similar, but I'm unable to figure it out, maybe someone knows the trick how to do it ... I'm trying to extract some information from the summary object for a model fitted using the lmer function from the lme4 package: smry <- summary(lmer(foo

Dear R-devel, The most popular piping operator sits in the package `magrittr` and is used by a huge amount of users, and imported /reexported by more and more packages too. Many workflows don't even make much sense without pipes nowadays, so the examples in the doc will use pipes, as do the README, vignettes etc. I believe base R could have a piping operator so packages can use a pipe in

Hello, Two lapply questions (system info and sample data below): 1) Why does the first form of command1 add the name of y _after_ the str() output rather than before as does the second (preferred) form? # command1 version1 invisible(lapply(ls(pattern='bn'), function(y) cat(y, "\n", str(get(y)), "\n") )) # command1 version2 (preferred output)

Hola buenas noches, tengo un problema bastante gordo. ¿A alguno le ha dejado de funcionar las funciones pamer.fnc y mcp.fnc con la nueva versión de R? La semana pasada formatee el ordenador y ahora scripts antiguos no funcionan. La cuestión es que me precupa que no funcione el ejemplo de tutorial del autor. Os dejo un script que debería de funcionar y no lo hace

I wish I had started with "I am disappointed that lm() doesn't continue its search for weights into the calling environment" or "the fact that lm() looks only in the formula environment and data frame for weights doesn't seem consistent with how other values are treated." But I did not. So I do apologize for both that and for negative tone on my part. Simplified

Actually, base R already has a pipe fairly close to the one you describe: ->.; iris ->.; head(.) ->.; dim(.) # [1] 6 5 I've called it the Bizarro pipe ( http://www.win-vector.com/blog/2016/12/magrittrs-doppelganger/ <http://www.win-vector.com/blog/2016/12/magrittrs-doppelganger/> ), and for some reason we chickened out and didn't spend time on it in the dot pipe paper (

Hello, R is a functional language, pipes are not. There are even higher order functions such as [1] and [2]. Besides, packages are part of R, R couldn't live without them. I find pipes a good idea but I also find it better not to have them as part of base R. If you want to use them, load a package, if you don't, don't. This simple. As for your example, compose, there is a

Hi, somebody from the kolab groupware project recently explained me that the Bus- Factor[1] of around 1 would be one of their primary reasons not to use Dovecot and stick with Cyrus. What do you think about that? Is the bus factor much higher then 1? [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bus_factor Somehow related: Since the free software world[2] slowly converges towards GIT as the "one and

Since 2008, Microsoft (formerly Revolution Analytics) staff and guests have written about R every weekday at the Revolutions blog: http://blog.revolutionanalytics.com and every month I post a summary of articles from the previous month of particular interest to readers of r-help. And in case you missed them, here are some articles related to R from the month of March: Reviews of new CRAN

I'm trying the following command on the source machine: virsh migrate --live --copy-storage-all --verbose TEST qemu+ssh:// 10.30.76.66/system If I ssh into the destination machine when this command is running, I can see NBD copying data as expected, and if I wait long enough it completes and succeeds. However if I ctrl+c this command above before it completes, it causes virsh commands

Dear R users, This command works (calling a programm -called whap- with file specifiers etc.): >system('cmd /c "c:\\pheno\\whap --file c:\\pheno\\smri --alt 1 --perm 500"', intern=TRUE) Now I need to call it from a loop to replace the "1" by different number, however I get lost using the quotes: I tried numerous versions of: >i<-1

Has anyone come across this problem... I created some Ruby files in Textmate on my Mac - and everything works fine. However, when I run those files on a Windows machine I get e.g. compile error ./script/../config/../app/views/station/consumption/new.rhtml:2: Invalid char `\002'' in expression ./script/../config/../app/views/station/consumption/new.rhtml:4: parse error, unexpected
