Dear R-devel, Can anyone help me to understand this? It seems that subscripting the rows of a data.frame without actually changing their order, somehow changes an internal representation of row.names that is revealed by e.g. dput/dump/serialize I have read the docs and inspected the (R) code for data.frame, rownames, row.names and dput without enlightenment. df=data.frame(a=1:10, b=1)

Dear List Members, I'm presently carrying out morphological analysis of a data set of neuronal structures. These are essentially 3D binary trees. In due course I will be trying to use discriminant analysis or other methods to classify these neurons based on morphological variables such as total tree length, segment number etc. I would like to calculate a 3D convex hull for a set of X,Y,Z

I have two versions of a bibtex database which have gotten badly out of sync. I need to find find all the entries in bib2 which are not contained in bib1, according to their bibtex keys. But I can't figure out how to extract a list of the bibentry keys in these databases. A minor question: Is there someway to prevent read.bib from ignoring entries that do not contain all required fields?

Hello, I have a binary file type that includes a zlib compressed data block (ie not gzip). Is anyone aware of a way using base R or a CRAN package to decompress this kind of data (from disk or memory). So far I have found Rcompression::decompress on omegahat, but I would prefer to keep dependencies on CRAN (or bioconductor). I am also trying to avoid writing yet another C level interface to

Hi, I use Sweave extensively in my consulting work. When submitting reports to the scientists I work with I like to use the citation function to reference any packages I use, to give proper acknowledgement. I noted in the documentation that a citation inherits from bibentry, and indeed, > citr<- citation() > class(citr) [1] "citation" "bibentry" However, following

The following citEntry includes a url with %3A and other encodings citEntry(entry="article", title = "Software for Computing and Annotating Genomic Ranges", author = personList( as.person("Michael Lawrence" )), year = 2013, journal = "{PLoS} Computational Biology", volume = "9", issue =

In R 3.4.0 RC, argument list of 'c' as S4 generic function has become (x, ...) . However, "S4 methods" section in documentation of 'c' (c.Rd) is not updated yet. Also, in R 3.4.0 RC, 'c' method of class "Date" ('c.Date') is still not explicitly documented.

If I have a list I can set a sub-element as follows on the command line: people=list() people$tom$hair="brown" people But what if I have a string containing the name of the sub-element that I want to access? subel= "people$tom$hair" get(subel) # returns error assign(subel,"red") # silent but doesn't change list people The attempts above using assign/get

Hello, Does anyone know of an R package that can read Windows BMP format images? Many thanks, Greg Jefferis. -- Gregory Jefferis, PhD Division of Neurobiology MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Hills Road, Cambridge, CB2 0QH, UK. http://www2.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk/group-leaders/h-to-m/g-jefferis

This seems to be a simple problem, and I feel that there ought to be a simple answer, but I can't seem to find it. I have a function that returns a number of values as a heterogeneous list - always the same length and same names(), but a number of different data types, including character. I want to apply it to many inputs, resulting in a list of lists. I would like to turn this list of

Dear R Users, I want to test the dimensions of an incoming vector, matrix or array safely and succinctly. Specifically I want to check if the unknown object has exactly 2 dimensions with a specified number of rows and columns. I thought that the following would work: > obj=matrix(1,nrow=3,ncol=5) > identical( dim( obj) , c(3,5) ) [1] FALSE But it doesn't because c(3,5) is numeric

A recent paper on visualisation (in Neuron, a leading neuroscience journal) surveyed how well previous articles in this journal labelled their graphs (e.g. axis labelling and describing their error bars). Of particular interest is that (only) 40% of plots labelled what their colorkey was showing (variable and units). The paper is at http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.neuron.2012.05.001 R is not yet

I want to create a neural network, and then everytime it receives new data, instead of creating a new nnet, i want to use a backpropagation algorithm to adjust the weights in the already created nn. I'm using nnet package, I know that nn$wts gives the weights, but I cant find out which weights belong to which conections so I could implement the backpropagation algorithm myself. But if anyone

Good Morning, I am using the neuralnet package in R, and am able to produce some basic neural nets, and use the output. I would like to exclude some of the weights and biases from the iteration process and fix their values. However I do not seem to be able to correctly define the exclude and constant.weights vectors. Question: Can someone point me to an example where exclude and

Back in 2010 I raised this issue, and there was some discussion, https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2010-November/058987.html The goal, then, as now is to have a way to produce a bibtex-clean .bib file (i.e., not requiring manual editing except in unusual circumstances) reflecting installed packages for use in writing where one often needs/wants to cite all packages used in a given

In a number of places internal to R, we need to know which files have changed (e.g. after building a vignette). I've just written a general purpose function "changedFiles" that I'll probably commit to R-devel. Comments on the design (or bug reports) would be appreciated. The source for the function and the Rd page for it are inline below. ----- changedFiles.R: changedFiles

Dear R users, I would like to reverse the axes on some xy plots (for example to set the origin at the top left rather than the bottom left). I had planned to use something of the following form: plot(y=y<-c(20,4,5,6),x=x<-c(10,20,30,40),ylim=rev(range(y))) ie reversing ylim to reverse the y axis. This works fine however I also want to use the parameter asp=1 to ensure that equal

Dear R contributors, I recently dowloaded the R-1.3.1 on my SGi Origin 200 run by Irix6.5. In order to instal it, I launched the command shown below: env MAKE=gmake ./configure The output was as follow:: R is now configured for mips-sgi-irix6.5 Source directory: . Installation directory: /usr/local C compiler: cc -OPT:IEEE_NaN_inf=ON -g C++ compiler:

Hi, Been using Dovecot for a few weeks now, must say it's very good.. I've been looking for a 'drop in' replacement for UWImap for ages! :) but just recently It's been giving me a few problem, I haven't tracked down exactly what causes the problem yet (I'm using Apple Mail on OS X 10.2.6) but after a good mail session it keep trying to log in over and over again..
