Ok, one last try. R1.2.0, WinNT 4.0: [R is installed in: R_HOME=D:\Programme\R\rw1020] Can anyone give a hint what the following error message (when running Rcmd INSTALL) means and what to do about it? cd D:\Programme\R\rw1020\src\library D:\Programme\R\rw1020\bin\rcmd install testfunctions make: Entering directory `/cygdrive/d/Programme/R/rw1020/src/gnuwin32' dlltool -k --as as --dllname

Dear R-users! I am using R1.2.0 under Windows NT4.0, and have data of the following form: > #simple example of data structure: > x <- data.frame(group=LETTERS[1:3], class1=1:3, class2=4:6) > x group class1 class2 1 A 1 4 2 B 2 5 3 C 3 6 I would like to convert this to a data.frame y of the following form: > y group class counts 1

[These things don't seem to be of too great importance and may well not meet the criteria of a "bug", but, for what it's worth,I thought I'd submit them to r-bugs anyway:] This is the R version: > version _ platform i386-pc-mingw32 arch x86 os Win32 system x86, Win32 status major 1

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

Dear R users, using dotplot (R1.2.0, WinNT4.0), I am trying to change the character size of the labels of the points: > # example > data(VADeaths) > dotplot(VADeaths, main = "Death Rates in Virginia - 1940") > # I'd like to have smaller character size of the labels (for age and population groups) > ?dotplot > # for argument "cex", this says:

Dear r-helpers! I have trouble reading data from an Oracle data base using RODBC Version 1.0-3, R Version 1.7.1, Windows XP, Oracle8 ODBC Driver Version 8.1.6.4.0: > library(RODBC) > channel <- odbcConnect(dsn="PAV32", case="oracle", believeNRows=FALSE) > # ok, this was succesful > x <- sqlTables(channel) > x[37, ] TABLE_CAT TABLE_SCHEM TABLE_NAME

Dear R-users! I would like to search for "association rules" (and compute support and confidence, for example) in a data set, and wonder if this can be done with R (version 1.5.0 for Windows)? Particulary, I wonder if a) anyone has done something like that with R or b)maybe someone has written an R-interface to some existing algorithm/software (e.g. to something like the

Dear R users! I am using R Version 1.7.1, Windows XP, package "foreign" (Version: 0.6-1), SPSS 11.5.1. There is one thing I noticed with "read.spss", and I'd like to ask if this is considered to be a feature, or possibly a bug: When reading character columns, character strings seem to get filled with blanks at the end. Simple example: In SPSS, create a file with one

Dear R community, I am using function 'within' in R.2.9.1 to add variables to an existing data.frame. This works wonderful, except for one minor point: The new variables are added to the data in reverse order. For example: x <- data.frame(a = 1:3, b = 4:6) y <- within(x, { c = a^2 d = b^2 e = c+d } ) gives a b e d c 1 1 4 17 16 1 2 2 5 29 25 4 3 3 6 45 36 9

Hello, I am working with R version 2.10.1 under windows. In a text file, I need to replace all characters at certain column positions with blanks. For example, say the file contains two lines and looks like this: ab34cd78e fg3 hi78j I'd like to replace everything at positions 3-4 and 7-8 with blanks, so the output should be: ab cd e fg hi j [I'm not sure if this is really an R

Anybody interested in the S maps library for R? I have ported a limited version of the software for a Unix platform, and would be happy to make it available for anybody interested. If there is a lot of interest then I will submit it to CRAN. I know that Ross Ihaka is working on a new version for R, which does not have some of the limitations of the original S version. My version does not do

Dear R-users! I am using R 1.7.0, under Windows XP. Having some hospital discharge data (admission date and discharge date for each patient), I want to get the number of patients in the hospital on a given date. My data look like (simple example): > x <- data.frame(patid=c("pat1", "pat2"), adm.date = c("15.03.2002", "16.03.2002"),

Dear R-users, I am working with R version 2.10.1. Say I have is a simple function like this: > my.fun <- function(x, mult) mult*sum(x) Now, I want to apply this function along with some other (say 'max') to a simple data.frame, like: > dat <- data.frame(x = 1:4, grp = c("a","a","b","b")) Ideally, the result would look something like

There seems to be a bug in "dotplot" concerning the "cex" parameter. Setting cex has no effect on the character size of the labels of the points. This problem was posted to r-help today (Thu, 18 Jan 2001); the solution given by Brian Ripley (and Uwe Ligges) seems to work for me. Heinrich Rinner. > version _ platform i386-pc-mingw32 arch x86

Hello, does anyone have experience with reading SPSS Version 15.0 files into R (version 2.4.1, WinXP)? I have long been sucessfully reading SPSS files with read.spss from the wonderful foreign package, but somehow after upgrading from SPSS14 to SPSS15 I seem to have problems. Trying a simple example, where test.sav is a SPSS 15.0 data file consisting of x1=c(1,2,3) and

Dear R-community, using R.2.9.1, how do you put reference lines or grids into the _background_ of a plot? For example: barplot(3:1) abline(h = seq(0.5, 2.5 ,0.5), col = "red", lty = "dashed") -> The lines are before the bars (and the line parts going through the bars might be considered as "chart junk", I suppose). Now, in this toy example I could just do the

Dear R-users, I am using R version 2.9.1 and lattice 0.17-26 under windows. In a lattice boxplot, I would like to add information on how many observations each singel boxplot is based upon. For example (the basic plot): # Begin R-code library(lattice) dat <- data.frame(panvar = rep(c("A","B","A","B"), c(3,7,4,6)), grp = rep(c("grp1",

Hello I was wondering if it was possible to enter R commands from an external text file. If it is possible, it will be easy for repetetive tasks. Does anyone have an idea ? thanks in advance Ahmet Temiz TURKEY ______________________________________ ______________________________________ The views and opinions expressed in this e-mail message are ...{{dropped}}

Dear R-people! I am using R 1.8.0, under Windows XP. While using ISOdate() and strptime(), I noticed the following behaviour when "wrong" arguments (e.g., months>12) are given to these functions: > ISOdate(year=2003,month=2,day=20) #ok [1] "2003-02-20 13:00:00 Westeurop?ische Normalzeit" > ISOdate(year=2003,month=2,day=30) #wrong day, but returns a value [1]
