I initially thought this is "documented behaviour". ?sprintf says: Numeric variables with __exactly integer__ values will be coerced to integer. (emphasis mine). Turns out this only works when the first value is numeric and not NA, as shown by the following example: > sprintf("%d", as.numeric(c(NA,1))) Error in sprintf("%d", as.numeric(c(NA, 1))) : invalid

I found this as well. At our institution, our home directories are on network shares that are mapped to local drives. The default, it appears, is to set the location for libraries (etc) to the network share name (//computer//share/director/a/b/user) rather than the local drive mapping (H:/). Given the issue with dir.create(), this means it's impossible to install packages (since it tries to

https://github.com/Rdatatable/data.table/issues/2171 The fix was easy, it's just surprising to see the behavior change almost on a whim. Just wanted to point it out in case this is unknown behavior, but Evan seems to have found this as well.

Hi all, I can't get my C routines running on a windows box. I have no problems at all in Linux. On windows, I have installed cygwin and the compilation works well but once I execute "dyn.load(.)" it hangs whatever I use C/C++ interfaces. In Linux it works wonderful but I need to get this code running on windows boxes. I know that the problem should be something with the

Hello, I have a number of Excel .xlsx files that aren't indexed properly. To illustrate, I have a file called "this is a test.xlsx". It consists of four cells: | this | | is | | a | | test | It gets indexed but I am unable to search for it. I was able to determine the index number and use delve to see the term list: #delve users -r 16496 Term List for record #16496:

The packages "readxl" and "haven" (and possibly others) no longer access files on shared network drives. The problem appears to be in the normalizePath() function. The file can be read from a local drive or by functions that don't call normalizePath(). The error thrown is Error: path[1]="\\Hzndhhsvf2/data/OCPH/EPI/BHSDM/Group/17.xls": The system cannot find the

Hi, my problem is the following: i am trying to replace an old SUSE 8.2, Samba 2.2 domain controller with a SUSE 9.3 system with samba 3.0 as PDC. Everything works fine, i can join the new domain, i replaced the machine and domain sid from the new server with the old ones. But how can reuse the profiles from the old machine at the new one? If i make a simple remote copy, the settings of the

Hello everyone, I need some help with lists inside lists (a good way to emulate a struct)\ Assume that there is a small list called fred: fred <- list(happy = 1:10, name = "squash") and a big list called bigfred that includes fred list 5 times bigfred <- rep(fred,5) Is it possible somehow to index all these sublists(fred) inside bigfred with a more direct way like this:

R 0.90.0: > Empl <- list(aa=1, b=2, c=3) > Empl[[as.numeric(NA)]] Error in Empl[[as.numeric(NA)]] : subscript out of bounds > Empl[[as.integer(NA)]] Error: attempt to select more than one element > Empl[[as.logical(NA)]] Error: attempt to select more than one element Now, (a) None of those messages is appropriate. (b) At least the first two should be the same. (c) S gives NULL

In researching another issue, I discovered a workaround: the network drive folder needs to be mapped to the local PC. setwd("//Hzndhhsvf2/data/OCPH/EPI/BHSDM/Group/Michael Laviolette/Stat tools") df1 <- readxl::read_excel("addrlist-4-MikeL.xls", 2) # fails, throws same error df2 <- readxl::read_excel("Z:/Stat

Astute observation. And of course we should be passing integer when we use %d. It's an edge case in how we printed ITime objects in data.table: On Tue, May 23, 2017 at 11:53 AM, Joris Meys <jorismeys at gmail.com> wrote: > I initially thought this is "documented behaviour". ?sprintf says: > > Numeric variables with __exactly integer__ values will be coerced to >

Yes, what Joris posts about is exactly what I noted in my March 9th post to R-devel. The behaviour is sort of documented, but not in the clearest manner (in my opinion). Like I say, my ultimate conclusion was that the silent coercion of numerics to integers by sprintf() was a handy convenience, but not one that should be relied about to always work predictably.

Dear all, this is my first message to this mailing list - please advise if it is not the right place for the subject I've been using R very intensively the last 3-4 years and one of the most tedious tasks is modification of lookup or conversion tables So far, I have not found functions that create the commands for creating objects (vectors, data frames) based on the objects themselves -

Dear Bo, Please keep the mailing list in cc. Your function only works properly with a data.frame in which all variables are characters. dput() will preserve the structure of the object and works with all R objects. Best regards, ir.
