Hi, I am trying to install ggobi for R under Solaris SunOS 5.5.1 Generic_103640-27 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-Enterprise following the instructions in INSTALL under e) R interface, although I have some modifications in mind: I am planning to keep the sources (untarred and unzipped) in /home/woodstock/hoffmann/R/Sources/Rggobi and I have set setenv GGOBI_ROOT $HOME/R/Sources/Rggobi (with $HOME =

I am running R-1.3.0 on Solaris 8: Under Solaris I do setenv dendro_us hoffmann echo $dendro_us gives back: hoffmann which is correct. When in R I do: Sys.getenv("dendro_us") I get dendro_us "" which is NOT correct: Inverse effect (taken from help of Sys.getenv) Under R: print(Sys.putenv("R_TEST"="testit", ABC=123)) [1] TRUE TRUE

Hi, Sorry to bother, but I checked around and did not succed creating a bundle from six existing packages (which are checkable, installable, etc. individually).

Hi there I hope that I am in the right forum. I am working on Win2000 PC connected via Exceed 6.0.1.0 to a SunOS fluke 5.9 Generic_118558-11 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-480R There I am using Mozilla Firefox 1.0.7 as a browser. I am having difficulties viewing .html files. Their first pages are displayed normally, black on white, links in blue. When I scoll down, the pages appear black

Hi there, (sorry Martin, ich habe den falschen Empfaenger erwischt :-( ) Is there a function in the base package or elsewhere which returns TRUE and not NA, even if NA is involved: (I did not find in the help system :-( ) if ( x==something & !is.na(something)) or if ( x==something & !is.na(x==something)) If "something" is complicated, a function would be handy. Thanks

Hi, Using help under help.start() is working fine (html) Q1: using > ?solve results in the message "sh: ~/R/tmp/R4f32S1cfb: cannot open" displayed in the XEmacs buffer "help[R](solve)". BUT there exists a file R.R4f32S167e in that directory. (not quite the same name). Does the "sh: " prefix suggest that the shell "sh" is run, although my

Hi, I am trying to create the assignment function: "substring<-" <- function(text, first, last=100000, sub) { if(is.character(first)) { if(!missing(last)) stop('wrong # arguments') return(sedit(text, first, sub)) } lf <- length(first) if(length(text)==1 && lf > 1) { if(missing(last)) last <- nchar(text) last <- rep(last,

Hi all, I am fancying the idea of using my preferred shell (t)csh when invoking system(). How can I do that? (I didn't find anything about that in the FAQ).

Thanks for the tip to p.dalgaard and Prof Brian Ripley: For reasons that I have forgotten, the value of an assignment function is always passed using an argument called "value", so try changing "sub" to "value". The last argument of any assignment function has to be named `value'. This is different from S, and is in the FAQ, section 3.3.3: "In R, the last

Hi all, May be there is a plot which shows 3 variables in a triangle, their sum being constant. I have forgotten its name, and a search in the engine using "plot" did not help.

Hi to all This is the first time I am quoting a question and I hope, my question is not too basic... For the following data, I wish to draw a fitted curve. x <- c(123,129,141,144,144,145,149,150,158,159,163,174,183,187,242,248) y <- c(14.42,26.96,31.3,19.95,36.36,15.4,24.76,35.39,28.07,40.97,26.23,42.83,46.53,14.79,49.18,48.08) If I plot the data, it looks somehow that a logistic

Hi there, May I ask the following question. Our Solaris installation of Xemacs and R: SunOS fluke 5.9 Generic_117171-02 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-480R one cannot start R inside xemacs: M-x R "symbol's function definition is void". Also, loading a *.tex file into Xemacs will result in "loading tex mode .. done", but the additional buttons to call TeX related processes

Dear, Some analysis (linear regression) can only be done from a vectorized dataset whereas others require a matrix (Mantel tests). I use the two analyses and thus need to format my data in matrix and vector. I spent some time trying to solve the problem and I just gave up. Did anyone knows how to transform a matrix into a vector and back-transform a vector into a matrix? Thanks by
