Iterate over a list of input files?
Hi, I've got the following code which seems to work fine for a single file if I specify the file name explicitly in the code. What I need to do is run it on all the files in the directory tested and augment the data frame I'm building to have more results columns.How can I do that? Here's the code: library(chron) # .Holidays / is.holiday / is.weekend TStoDate = function

sem and "simple variables"
salutations! i am doing some longitudinal modeling with sem and thought calculating some "simple variables" would make my model more readable. this is the smallest subset of my model that illustrates the resulting problem. i have 2 observed exogenous variables (c1, d2) and 4 observed endogenous variables (dc1, dd1, dc2, dd2). c1 is the observed state at time 1, dc1 is the change in c

highlighting subset of point with xyplot (or Hmisc(xYplot))
Hello all, I am trying to use xyplot to give a six panel plot and to highlight only points (in any panel) that meet a certain criterion. With the plot command I would do something like: plot.default(filein$Site,filein$circ.conc) points(filein$Site,filein$circ.conc,type="p", pch=ifelse(filein$p.value<5e-02,19,21)) I had thought I could just stick in the pch line from above into

Object created within a function disappears after the function is run
Dear R-helpers, I have run the code below which I expected to make an object called dd1, but that object does not exist. So, in summary, my problem is that my function is meant to make an object (dd1), and it does indeed make that object (I know that the last line of the function prints it out) but then, after the function has run, the object has disappeared. It's late on a Friday so I may

more efficient way to parallel
Dear All, Suppose I have a program as below: Outside is a loop for simulation (with random generated data), inside there are several sapply()'s (10~100) over the data and something else, but these sapply's have to be sequential. And each sapply do not involve very intensive calculation (a few seconds only). So the outside loop takes minutes to finish one iteration. I guess the better way

Timezone support?
This is a follow-up to the thread ending with: http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/vpim-talk/2008/000120.html I too am in search of some ruby parser for icalendar which properly handles timezones on the datetimes in the icalendar RFC. As I understand it there are actually three types of times. 1) UTC times with a string form of yyyymmddThhmmssZ note the trailing Z indicates zulu time aka utc. 2)

Character coerced to factor and I cannot get it back
Something probably obivous but I don't see it. I needed to find the first 1 or two digits of some 5 and 6 digit numbers since they identified research sites while the rest of the number was the plot id. I converted the numbers to characters, got the first 1 or 2 characters as appropriate and went to add the new vector to the data.frame. For some reason R is insisting on turning the

mlocal/mtrace inside a loop
Hello I need some help in figuring Bravington’s debugger out. Ok I have 2 functions, fun1 and fun2 saved in a ASCII file say filename is funs. Fun1 has a loop which calls fun2, fun2 has a loop which fails and I need to find out the value of the variables of the fun2 and fun1 loops at the specific iteration that fails. Both fun1 and fun2 loops will iterate thousands of times so line by line debug

How to modify the values of the parameters passing via ...
Dear Friends, Let's assume there are three parameters that were passed into fun1. In fun1, we need to modify one para but the remains need to be untouched. And then all parameters were passed into fun2. However, I have failed to achieve it. Please see the following code. ########################################## fun1 <-function(x, y, z=10) {x+y+z;} fun2 <-function(aa, ...) {

Barplot for degree distribution
In barplot for degree distribution x-axis is not seen. See the example below > g = barabasi.game(500, 0.4) > dd1 = degree.distribution(g) > plot(dd1, xlab="degree", ylab = "frequency") whereas barplot doesnot have any x-axis > barplot(dd1, xlab = "degree", ylab = "frequency") Please see the figures attached.

Status of Timezone support / Handeling DTSTART; TZID="(GMT-05.00) Eastern Time (US & Canada)":20080107T123000
I can not tell from the docs or from the mailing list what is the state of timezone support in the iCalendar package? If I want to parse an iCalendar file that has non utc dstarts and dends will it convert those times to UTC or otherwise allow me to do that? When I tried to parse an iCalendar input file started off with something like this: BEGIN:VCALENDAR METHOD:REQUEST
