similar to: mapping of colornames into hsv?

Hi Martin, Great that you follow this. My original intention was to be able to translate colornames to hsv because this would allow using colornames to cut out a certain part of the colorwheel for colorcoding (HSV component H, see my code below) I think internally we might have colors represented as Colornames, ColorIntegers, ColorHexcodes, ColorRGBs, ColorHSVs (ColorCMYs?) however the R-user

Ok, now we have the mapping of color names to color codes (see below) and conversion to rgb (something like Ben Bolker's function), but how to convert rgb to hsv? Thanks to Brian Ripley, Peter Dalgaard and Ben Bolker Details below Regards Jens etc/colors.big maps 455 names to rgb in S syntax etc/rgb.txt maps 657 names to rgb in C syntax, but unlike colors() it has mixed upper and

There are a lot of ways to specify colours in R plot functions (number from the palette, by name, etc.). I'd like to pass a colour from an R function to an external function, and I'd like it to have the same flexibility. To avoid having to interpret all possible colour specifications myself, I need a function to convert a general colour specification into a standard form (e.g. r,g,b

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

Here is a possible BUG with as.data.frame() and/or [.data.frame which broke Michael Lapsleys RODBC-Code. Can anyone confirm it is a bug or a 'feature' of the prototype? tablename <- "abc" a <- as.data.frame(cbind("abc", 1:3)) b <- as.data.frame(cbind(tablename, 1:3)) # ok > a V1 V2 1 abc 1 2 abc 2 3 abc 3 # missing column name > b tablename 1

Dear all, In RW0901 I could > dates("01/01/2000") [1] 01/01/100 where only the printing was wrong, but the double numeric representation of the chron object was calculated correctly but now in RW0990 > dates("01/01/2000") Error in fun(yy, ...) : must be 2-digit (numeric) year specification and also the followig doesn't help > dates("01/01/2000",

I observed the following difference: > ddd <- data.frame(a=1:3, b=1:3) # assignment of 'X' silently ignored > ddd[1,1] <- 'X' > is.factor(ddd[[1]]) [1] FALSE > ddd a b 1 1 1 2 2 2 3 3 3 # assignment of 'X' not ignored > ddd[[1]][1] <- 'X' > is.factor(ddd[[1]]) [1] TRUE > ddd a b 1 X 1 2 2 2 3 3 3 Regards > version

-- Happy holidays! -- Dear R Development Core Team, I want to thank you *very much* for the new "Writing R Extensions" manual published with RW0.901 and hope this is the right place to report some possible typos. page 17, example given in the middle of the page, I think it should read REAL(version) = 3.0; ^^^^^^^ page 23, second example, I think the parameter definition

I observe dificulties with using data.frame(I(matrix)) > mat <- matrix(letters, 2, 2) > dimnames(mat) <- list(c(1:2), c("x","y")) > mat x y 1 "a" "c" 2 "b" "d" > dd <- data.frame(I(mat)) > ddd I.mat..x I.mat..y 1 a a 2 b b 3 c c doesn't look too bad, but, has

I have a question concerning memory. I understood that R takes a fixed amount of memory at startup (which I can influence with --vsize --nsize) and that gc() shows the memory still free of the total memory reserved for R. However, if I create a long vector of character data, gc() only seem to reflect the space needed for a vector of pointers to char, the space used for the character data itself

In RW0.651 and RW0.901, I discovered some unexpected behaviour when I used as.matrix.data.frame() > matrix('"', 2, 2) [,1] [,2] [1,] "\"" "\"" [2,] "\"" "\"" > unclass(as.data.frame(matrix('"', 2, 2))) $V1 [1] "\"" "\"" $V2 [1] "\"" "\""

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,

I realise that there is an existing system for documenting datasets but what I would like is to be able to whack a few lines of commentary at the top of a file which contains data -- not full documentation but just an outline for myself to remind me of what I was doing or what settings I was using, etc. I was thinking that the read.table() function might be extended to support an option allowing

hi all, i have a simple scatter plot, and i'd like to make it so the scatter plot colors are slightly transparent. i see in a previous post that someone mentioned the "alpha" parameter, but i am not sure how it can be used with the 'plot' function [*]. for example, suppose i have: plot(mydata$column1, mydata$column2, col="red", cex=1) i now want to make it so

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.

I want to get a lighter shade of a color...I have a lot of colored objects and want each one printed as a foreground against a slightly lighter background. I thought I could try something like changing the alpha channel by first converting it to rgb. But prior to trying that, I'm stuck with how to get the color after converting using col2rgb() to be interpreted again as a color, rather than

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.
