similar to: Error in substring: invalid multibyte string

Thanks for the quick response Ivan. readLines with encoding='latin1' works for me (on Ubuntu). However I was more concerned with the inconsistency in results between substr and regexpr. I was expecting that if one of them errors because of an unknown encoding then the other should as well. Even better, if regexpr works, why shouldn't substr work as well? Incidentally the analogous

I think this is a moment to lean back from daily business, details or whatsoever and appreciate the impressive achievment of Ross, Robert and the R-core team. Incredible! They created an impressive and extremely useful software, for teaching, research and more. Besides these direct practical benefits, I think this project is more: it gives an outstanding example of international cooperation and

Some days ago a problem with perl under WinNT was reported, which lead to > > t1 <- read.fwf("d:/maj/consulting/MarkStevens/matrix.txt", width=c(4, 22, > rep(7, 8))) > Error: "scan" can't open file I installed perl from the WindowsNt Recource Kit CD (Sept. 98) and encountered the same problem: Scan couldn't open the file - because perl did not produce

Hi, When trying to generate very long strings, my R hangs without any error message, even if given much memory. # e.g. x <- character(10) for (i in 1:10) x[i] <- paste(1:1000, collapse="abc") paste(x, collapse="") # or directly paste(1:10000, collapse="abc") Am I violating any max(nchar(character())) or is this a bug?

Hi all, (and especially hi to Tomas Kalibera who accepted my patch sent yesterday) I believe that I have found another bug, this time in the substring function. The use case that I am concerned with is when there is a single (character scalar) text/subject, and many substrings to extract. For example substring("AAAA", 1:4, 1:4) or more generally, N=1000

I just tried to batch-start rgui.exe (not rterm.exe) in a way, that it read.table()s data from a file with changing filename. As I understand no command line parameters are available for that, so instead I tried to pass the filename to an approbriate .RProfile, which works roughly, BUT ## this is my %R_USER%\.RProfile im <- read.table("d:/temp/im/temp.csv", header=TRUE,

I like to have a continuously running R process, which can receive a dataframe from a client (over TCP/IP), does some processing, and sends some data back. What is the prefered way to do this? Using the socket interface? Using omega's CORBA stuff? Does anyone has example code for doing so? Thanks for any help Regards -- Dr. Jens Oehlschl?gel-Akiyoshi Analyse MD FACTORY GmbH Gr?nstr. 15

Can anyone give advice how to interactively exchange data between R and SQL-Databases like DB2, ORACLE, MS-SQL-Server ? If the answer is: 'currently not', this would be information for me as well.

Hi, below is a function which pastes a matrix, but uses parsing (deparse(substitute()) and eval()). Does anyone know a more standard solution to pasting a matrix?

Hi, can anyone help with two questions concerning persp? (1) Is there a function in R to project points onto a persp() plot, as is in S+ (perspp() I think) ? (2) How can I label and tickmark axes x,y and z in a persp plot?

Hi, when writing a wrapper function, I would like to be able to pass additional arguments to more than one function inside, e.g. density.panel <- function(x, na.rm=TRUE, ...){ usr <- par("usr") on.exit(par(usr)) par(usr = c(usr[1:2], 0, 1) ) lines( density(x, na.rm=na.rm, ...), ... ) } and then call it like density.panel(x, col="red",
