FW: the underscore ("_") in variable name
don't know much about programming. But I know that it is not a good idea to
assign a variable name to the name of an intrinsic constant or function. In
your example, you assign the name "c" to a variable. But "c" is already the
name of a function i R. In this way you are asking for trouble.

Replacing underscore character in Windows GUI
Hello, all,
I'd like to propose that now that the underscore-as-assignment-operator
is to be removed from R (good thing, too), that the Windows GUI should
replace the underscore ``_'' with the proper assignment operator ``<-''
when you type in the underscore character.
This is the current default behaviour in the ESS mode in emacs, and seems
to me to be a generally good

I don't follow this argument. Underscore isn't used anywhere else in
the language, so when you see one, you know it's an assignment. On
the other hand, both "<" and

Make #underscore reversible
Hello All,
I''ve submitted a patch (http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/8898) to
enable #underscore to be reversible.
I had trouble creating a class named "CRSContact", and it turns out
that underscore and camelize are not reversible in cases where there
are 3 or more capital letters. As there is a dependency between class
name and file name I think it would be beneficial for

samba veto files: underscore
Hello all,
I'm trying to hide files beginning with a underscore ( "_" ) and hidden files from my samba share's so i added this to my smb.conf:
veto files = /_*/.*/
The section with the dot works, but the one with the underscore doesn't. I also tried /\_*/.*/ but this has the same result.
Any ideas how to hide the files beginning with a underscore?
Thanks,

using underscore character in column names
Suppose you're reading data from a file in which the
column names contain underscore characters. Example:
------ start of file -----
pos_x pos_y
1.0 0.0
2.0 1.0
------ end of file -------
Using read.table, I can read this file just fine:
> data <- read.table (file="data", head=T)
> data
pos_x pos_y
1 1 0
2 2 1

However, I can't

no _?
I see the uderscore "_" is not allowed in R. This make R a real drag when
trying to use with SQL packages and c code. Why is the underscore not
allowed and will it be allowed in a future release?

Windows 64bit package build requires underscore hack?
Hello,
After much tinkering I managed to build packages using the 64bit version of
R with the help of hints from
http://www.murdoch-sutherland.com/Rtools/
and
http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/~ripley/Win64/W64porting.html
and
R-admin Manual.
But a hack was required, and this seems to be related to

Assignment operators (was [R] modifying a vector)
Bill Venables expected howls of protest about deprecation of underscore for
assign. Here's my one-and-only howl on this point:
(1) I don't like <- as an assignment operator, because it creates an
ambiguity with comparisons: I can write "x+1", "x-1", "x<1" but not "x<-1".
However, I guess it's a bit much to expect the entire R/S

Sweave: printing an underscore in the output from an R command
I am working with Sweave and would like to print out into my latex document the result of the R command
version$platform
So what I first tried in my .Rnw document was \Sexpr{print(version$platform)}.
However, the output from this command is the string "x86_64-apple-darwin10.8.0" (without the quotes). This contains an underscore, which is a special character in tex and so I get an error

Underscore and ESS
This is a question that I should have sent to 'ess-help', but I
take my chances...
In 'NEWS' (1.9.0) I read the good news
o Underscore '_' is now allowed in syntactically valid names, and
make.names() no longer changes underscores. Very old code
...
but when I try it in emacs (ESS 5.1.24), my '_' are changed to ' <- '!
What can I do?

Underscore or not?
The Agile book mentions that using an underscore to break up words is
the ''preferred'' method, but later says that you''ll have trouble using
them in many-to-many association tables. What are people doing? It
sounds like less of a hassle to cram my words together (cablepair vs
cable_pair) and enjoy the native many-to-many handling.
Or maybe I just answered my own

NextMethod causes R 2.2.0 to crash (PR#8416)
I found writing the following default method the for the generic
function "julian" causes R to crash.
julian.default <- function(x, ...) {
x <- as.Date(x)
NextMethod("julian", x, ...)
}
Here is a test example

> m

apply on large arrays
I have a big contingency table, approximately of size 60*2*500*500,
and I need to count the number of cells containing a count of 1 for each
of the factors values defining the first dimension.
Here is my attempt:
tab1<-with(pisa1,table(CNT,GENDER,ISCOF,ISCOM))
tab2<-apply(tab1,1:4,function(x)ifelse(sum(x)==1,1,0))
tab3<-apply(tab2,1,sum)
Computing tab2 is very slow.
Is there a faster

substitute creates an object which prints incorrectly (PR#9427)
The function "substitute" seems to fail to make a genuine
substitution, although the printed verision seems fine. Here is an
example.

+ list(Y = as.name("y"), FUN = as.name("sin")))

y <- function(x) sin(x + 1)

legacy support: removing underscore from table name.
I am using ms sql server and want to configure RoR such that it does not
convert the given table name (example: rubyonrails) to ruby_on_rails.
I set @@pluralize_table_names = false, so that it does not pluralize
the table names but cannot find the config setting which will force it
not to put underscore between words in a table name.
thanks in advance,
