Dear all, I have a question regarding the possibility of parallel computation in plyr version 1.7. The help files of the following functions mention the argument '.parallel': ddply, aaply, llply, daply, adply, dlply, alply, ldply, laply However, the help files of the following functions do not mention this argument: ?d_ply, ?aply, ?lply Is it because parallel computation is not

plyr is a set of tools for a common set of problems: you need to break down a big data structure into manageable pieces, operate on each piece and then put all the pieces back together. For example, you might want to: * fit the same model to subsets of a data frame * quickly calculate summary statistics for each group * perform group-wise transformations like scaling or standardising *

I have an application where I have a function to calculate results for a 2-way table or matrix, which returns a matrix with one less row and column. To keep this short, the function below captures the structure: fun2way <- function(f){ if (!length(dim(f)) ==2) stop("only for 2-way arrays") R <- dim(f)[1] C <- dim(f)[2] f[1:(R-1), 1:(C-1)] } Now, I want to

Dear list, I'm just getting started learning how to use remote supercomputers for execution of parallelized code. I got a lot of initial help from this <http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14553357/parallelizing-on-a-supercomputer-and-then-combining-the-parallel-results-r> previous post, as well as one particularly helpful and patient XSEDE guy. I'm only using one node (for the

Hi guys, I'm a new to R and following along with Tutorials using this book: http://www.amazon.com/Practical-Statistical-Analysis-Non-structured-Applications/dp/012386979X In one of them, they use the twitteR package and describe the following function (see below). From what I can tell from the documentation (R), there's a method to call it directly in an interactive session. The way

Hi all, In short: I'm running ddply on an admittedly (somehow) large data.frame (not that large). It runs fine until it finishes and gets to the "collating" part where all subsets of my data.frame have been summarized and they are being reassembled into the final summary data.frame (sorry, don't know the correct plyr terminology). During collation, my R workspace RAM usage goes

Hi,I am using the amazing package 'plyr". I have one problem. I would appreciate help to fix the following error: Thanks. ______________________________ > library(plyr) > data(baseball) > summarise(baseball, + duration = max(year) - min(year), + nteams = length(unique(team))) Error: could not find function "summarise" > ddply(baseball, "id", summarise, +

Dear All, to produce output of several columns of a data frame, I tried to use lapply and also l_ply. In both cases, I would like to print a header line containing also the name of the respective column in the data frame. For example, I would like the following lapply(data.frame(a=1:3, b=2:4), function(x) print(deparse(substitute(x)))) to produce: [1] "a" [1] "b" and

There are a few version of apply() (e.g., lapply(), sapply()). I'm wondering if there is one that does not return anything but just silently apply a function to the list argument. For example, the plot function is applied to each element in 'alist'. It is redundant to return anything from apply. apply(alist,function(x){ plot each element of alist})

Hello -- I posted this question yesterday and for some reason the post seems to be attached to the wrong thread. Also, I extended my test a little and it seems to indicate the problem is with spm. I would appreciate any help. Thanks. ========================================================== library(plyr) library(SemiPar) data <-

Dear all Is it possible to set globally the option .progress = "text" to all the apply functions in 'plyr'. For example, current default is daply(..., .progress = "none"). I would like to set it to daply(..., .progress = "text"), so as to avoid writing the argument every time I call such a function. I looked into ?daply and ?create_progress_bar without much
