similar to: I simply cannot install R on Ubuntu. I don't know why.

Hi, I've actually run R quite a bit in Windows. I've had a release 8.04 of Ubuntu running a laptop for 3 days now. After struggling for much of that time to install R, I finally figured out that Dell shipped with the sources.list obsolete or just plain wrong. So I finally got it installed last night (for some reason v2.6.2, not v2.9.x). This morning I was able to download and install

Thanks to everyone who has responded (esp. Michael, I greatly appreciate but also recognize that getting R on my machine is not your career). Your last response was (basically) uninstall, reboot, retry Synaptic, if no good try: judson at judson:~$ sudo wget http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/hardy/r-base-core_2.9.0-2hardy0_i386.deb I GOT --15:03:02--

Hi, haven't been here for a while, but everyone one was always so helpful I thought I would ask you another really basic question. I'm running R2.9.1 in Ubuntu8.04 on a netbook (maxed out on memory etc so I don't think that's a problem - wth it's a Dell Mini 9" with that lpia non-architecture you told me about). Anyway, some of the graphics functions/parameters are

Why is the described system preferable to Julia?

I read this paper <https://www.stat.auckland.ac.nz/~ihaka/downloads/Compstat-2008.pdf> and haven't been able to find out what happened - I have seen some sporadic mention in message groups but nothing definitive. Does anyone know? [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I'm trying to use ggplot to make a single graph that plots 8 distributions, one above the other. I created a data.frame with 9 rows. The first is the coordinate along the x-axis. The next is the y-values for the first distribution. After that is the y-values for the next distribution... and so on. How do I call ggplot to use such a data.frame to make a single graph of 8 distributions?

Is it conceivable that Julia could be ported to use R syntax in a way that would allow the vastly larger numbers of R programmers to seamlessly switch? Or equivalently, could an iteration of R itself do this?

I'm solving the following problem: Create a variable (column) in the ?wf? dataframe named ?Zone? that takes value of ?tropic? if Latitude is less than or equal to 30, or ?non-tropic? for Latitude greater than 30. Show you Zone variable. Latitude is a column of my dataframe. I don't know the sintaxis and the process to create the column. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

But you can easily fall back to R from within Julia; see http://juliastats.github.io/RCall.jl/latest/ On Aug 5, 2016 1:27 PM, "Hadley Wickham" <h.wickham at gmail.com> wrote: > No. > > Hadley > > On Fri, Aug 5, 2016 at 11:12 AM, Kenny Bell <kmbell56 at gmail.com> wrote: > > Is it conceivable that Julia could be ported to use R syntax in a way > that

Hi Im currently trying to plot my NMDS data together with fitted variables (envfit funct) on an ordination plot. The plot function shows two displays="sites" and "sp". I was wondering how to plot it so that the sites come up as different points for different sites but the species come up as actual names? It looks a little busy at the moment with everything in.

Does anyone know how to extend the buit-in rake tasks like test:unit. I want to custom load some fixtures in a particular order. Thanks, Zack

Hi, I have buit Xen (32 bit) with PAE and can start multiple Paraguests with 4 gig memory, but cannot launch a single VM with more than 4 gb memory. I would like to launch 1 VM with 30GB or so memory. Are there any config paramters like kernel,/inittrd that need to be changed. I have the ramdisk set to the initrd I used to boot xen with PAE. Thanks - padma

Evening all! I''m playing around with the new Simply RESTful plugin, and I''ve got a question about the *_url methods. >From what I understand, given a Page model, there are three _url methods provided: - page_url - new_page_url - edit_page_url I''m a bit disturbed that there are only three, but that aside... To delete a resource, I would say:

Hey guys, I''m trying out the new RESTful bits in Edge Rails, and am having a bit of trouble wrapping my brain around certain things. For instance, say I have a page that is separated into sections with tabs at the top. I want to replace divs on the page with RJS. Now typically before I''d have a method on the controller that rendered an RJS template to accomplish this.

Hi all, If the DB server is down when the rails server starts, or if it gets down while the rails server is running, I need to - detect the problem - display a simple error message "DB is down: contact support". Inserting ActiveRecord::Base.retrieve_connection() at the very begining of ApplicationController will trigger an error - that can be captured - when the class is
