Suggestion for improving value_to_boolean column conversion
Hi fantastic rails core developers. Speaking of version 2.3.5: I find it rather error_prone that values such that "some text" is silently converted to false when stored in a boolean DB field. Among other things it means that assign "some text" to boolean fields on a model will not generate any validation messages (it will silently be converted to false). I think it is like

Does ActiveRecord have support for "Boolean" columns?
Hey all -- I''ve been using enumerable char(1)''s with ''y'' and ''n'' values for my Boolean columns in Rails, but it strikes me there should be a better way. How do you setup columns that represent true/false-ness in your schemas on Rails? Wondering what kind of standard approaches there are other than me writing something like class MyEntity

Reference classes and memory consumption
Dear All, It seems that reference classes consume a lot of memory which became a problem for my rather extensive simulation. I prepared a small example. An instance of this minimal class uses about 20K on disk. rm(list=ls(all=TRUE)); MySmallClass = setRefClass("MySmallClass", fields = list( myField = "numeric" ), methods = list( initialize =

Debian vs Ubuntu for a postgresql database + rails
I''m going to be getting a VPS at rimuhosting.com, and it''ll only run postgresql and an app that uses AR/ActionSupport. I always use FreeBSD, but in this case my options are limited to RHEL4, FC5, Debian and Ubuntu. I figure Debian and Ubuntu are probably preferable...so which one should I go with? This will not run an email, ftp, or web server - just postgresql 8.1 plus a Ruby

How to call subset in a for loop?
Dear all, I have a data frame 'myDf', in which one of the fields 'myField' can have several possible values. To extract the observations for which it has value "A", I can do: subset(myDf, myField="A") However, when I try to do this within a loop, it doesn't work, it returns everything, and not a subset for (currField in c("A", "B",

About normality tests...
Hi all, I have two very large samples of data (10000+ data points) and would like to perform normality tests on it. I know that p < .05 means that a data set is considered as not normal with any of the two tests. I am also aware that large samples tend to lead more likely to normal results (Andy Field, 2005). I have a few questions to ensure that I am using them right. 1) The Shapiro-Wilk

improving ts object
Dear all, Currently, a ts object behaves like an array, and it would be very useful to have a similar object, which would behave like a data.frame, i.e. it could be indexed, named, etc. like a data.frame. What would be the most efficient way to construct such an object? I have tried to make one on my own following the directions of class design from "S Programming" (2000) as a

Overriding new or create for a model
I have a model where I need to calculate one of the fields when I create a new instance. It seems to me that I should do this in the model code and that I should override the new and/or create methods. Is this the right approach and, if so, how can I execute the existing method but add on my calculation? I want something like: def create -Do the original create first- field =

I was wondering if there''s a way to limit what a user is typing on the keyboard to only valid numeric input. Is there a simple plugin or something which would allow this?
