Hi, If I may suggest that something be done to the window drawing function of a plot. As it is now, we don't even have time to resize the window by a tiny bit before it's invoke and I think it would be an improvement if while the mouse is down the redrawing was delayed somehow. This is especially true when the plot is crowded. I also observed that moving the plot window around was a lot

Indeed, there is no file named "dlltool" anywhere around here! So, at last I am beginning to suspect that my collection of tools is incomplete. What I have got is "rw1020sp.zip" and "http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/bdr/RWin/tools.zip". These are properly istalled, I think. readme.packages says "If your package has no C nor Fortran nor C++ sources, see `Simple

I'm running Windows NT4. Rcmd does not seen to read the command line. Rterm and other things work well. For example "Rcmd check --help" fails with the command interpreter trying to find a program or file called "check."

Hi, Would there be a function and/or some options to force R to write a value of say 1.0e-4 as "0.0001"? More specifically I want to use R to write ASCII file(s) for other programs to read and some of these programs don't know how to deal numbers in scientific notation or have a different convention. Thanks in advance. Yves Gauvreau B.E.F.P. Universit? du Qu?bec ? Montr?al cyg at

A trick I use is to give tab-delimited text files created by excel or R the .xls extension: this may apply, and it may be better, to CSV: R couldn't see any difference whichever the extension will be, and windows will be foolished by the .xls extension an will open the file with Excel that will handel it CORRECTLY. If you need to have the data always alligned in Excel and R this trick will

Hi, I've installed the RODBC library, R1.000, NT 4.0. When I try to load it here is what I get: library(RODBC) Warning message: Package `RODBC' contains no R code in: library(RODBC) channel <- odbcConnect("PubsDSN", "sa", "password") # userId and password Error: couldn't find function "odbcConnect" Does anyone can shed some ligth on this

Hi, I know it must be written somewhere but I can't find it. I'd like to remove all variables or objects that I've created but not the functions. I look at a few things without success. Is there a R way of doing this? There are to many to create a manual list. Thanks in advance. Yves Gauvreau -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-help

I almost didn't believe in it anymore, but Rcmd INSTALL finally is working for me! Thanks to all who helped on this, especially to Guido Masarotto, Brian Ripley, John Fox, Peter Dalgaard, Uwe Ligges. Anyway, I do think the documentation is a bit confusing here (at least for me, I don't know if others have felt the same). It might be a good idea to add the essence of Brians and Guidos

Dear R users, this is a question for R version 1.2.0 under Windows NT 4.0, regarding the documentation of ones own functions. I have ceated a private library for my functions, which works all very well, apart from that I am not able to create appropriate help files. For illustration, here is a simple example of where I'm stuck: > # first, create a simple function f1: > f1 <-

Hi, Is there a way to apply a function to rows or columns of a matrix? Now I use apply(as.matrix(1:nrow(m), 1, function(x) mean(m[x,])) which works fine but kind of slow on large matrix. I'm sure there is something on this somewhere but I can't find it. Thanks Yves Gauvreau -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-help mailing list -- Read

Hi everyone, I did a principal component analysis (princomp) on a dataset I have, I plotted the first two columns and labeled the points by their index number. I observed that most index sequences (points 50:65 for example) kind of form arc shape trajectories on the graph (even loops), some of those seem to converge at some particular location and those specific patterns just happen to have some

The trailing backslash seems to be the culprit. After looking at rw1020\bin\INSTALL, I noticed $pkg =~ s/\/$//; which I assume is to strip the trailing slash from a package name before obtaining the package name and cleaning out its directory I added $pkg =~ s/\\$//; immediately after this line. Rerunning Rcmd INSTALL C:\rw1011\src\library\bqtl\ with that change seemed to work OK

Hi, I need to write a function that would look something like this: S <- function(b=betas){ expression(b[1] * f(b[2] * x * f(b[3] * x * f(...b[n-1] * x * f(b[n] * x)))...) } Where n is the number of element in b. Further I need to be able to evaluate S at some x numerically of course and I need to use "deriv" and produce dS/dx such that I can evaluate it also at some x. I
