Hi all, I'm getting the following error from substring: > substr("<I>Jens Oehlschl\xe4gel-Akiyoshi", 1, 100) Error in substr("<I>Jens Oehlschl\xe4gel-Akiyoshi", 1, 100) : invalid multibyte string at '<e4>gel-A<6b>iyoshi' Is that normal / intended? I've tried setting the Encoding/locale to Latin-1/UTF-8 but that does not help. nchar

I've noticed quite a few messages relating to large data sets bedeviling R users, and having just had to program my way through one that actually caused a "Bus error" when I tried to read it in, I'd like to ask two questions. 1) Are there any facilities for aggregation of data in R? ( I admit that this will not do much for the large data set problem immediately) 2) Is there any

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

Yesterday I asked for help about read.table with a CSV file. I received the following help. As always many thanks for the prompt responses. Now I load my csv file in a text editor ( pfe) and delete all spaces. My original mail is at the end. From: Peter Dalgaard BSA <p.dalgaard at biostat.ku.dk> Do you have spaces before the commas in your file? > Yes, number , space,

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

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,

Hello! Is there someone already working on an implementation of Splus' chull() function for R? If not, I would like volunteer to try it. For my "Diplom" I implemented convex peeling in C (some time ago), using an O(n log(n)) algorithm, so it probably will prove relatively easy to use that code for a R-function. Well, as least as easy as any programming tends to be. :-) Detlef

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

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? Regards Jens Oehlschl?gel-Akiyoshi

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.

Dear All, I am trying to install R 2.7 on my openSUSE 10.3. I have faithfully followed instruction at http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/suse/ReadMe.txt. I have downloaded all the RPMs but still R complains about: libtcl8.4.so is needed by R-base-2.7.1-6.1.i586 I searched for this library and found a one, tcl-8.4.15-22.i586.rpm at openSUSE distribution site and installed. But R still complains

I've rolled up R-1.6.0.tgz a short while ago. This is a major upgrade, with several new features. A few of the changes generate compatibility issues. You may wish to consult http://developer.r-project.org/160update.txt. We no longer ship the set of recommended packages separately, but bundle them up with the main distribution. Thus there is now only a single file to fetch and (barring
