similar to: data.table 1.6 is now on CRAN

Under the "further resources" section I'd like to suggest the following addition : * http://crantastic.org/ lists popular packages according to other users votes. Consider briefly reviewing the top 30 packages before posting to r-help since someone may have already released a package that solves your problem. Thats just a straw man idea so I hope there will be answer, or

data.table is an enhanced data.frame with fast subset, fast grouping and fast merge. It uses a short and flexible syntax which extends existing R concepts. Example: DT[a>3,sum(b*c),by=d] where DT is a data.table with 4 columns (a,b,c,d). data.table 1.4.1 : * grouping is now 10+ times faster than tapply() * extract is 100+ times faster than ==, as before * 3 new vignettes: Intro, FAQ

Hi, I've added R_init_data_table to the "data.table" package (which has a dot in its name). This works well in R 2.15.0, because of this from the Writing R Extensions manual : " Note that there are some implicit restrictions on this mechanism as the basename of the DLL needs to be both a valid file name and valid as part of a C entry point (e.g. it cannot contain ?.?): for

Hi, Similar questions have come up before on the list and elsewhere but I haven't found a solution yet. winbuilder's install.out shows data.table's .c files compiled with -O3 on Win32 but -O2 on Win64.

I'm just after a more impressive way of saying "there's 2600 packages on CRAN" than saying that. Counts of lines of R and C/Fortran code would be interesting... The CRANtastic tag cloud is quite handy... Anything else? Barry
