The above came with V1.2.3, but don't seem to be included with V1.3.0. When I upgraded R, I assumed they would also come with the new version, so didn't save them elsewhere. Could someone please email them to me, or tell me where I could get hold of them? Many thanks in advance. ****************************************************************************************** * Dr.

It was suggested to me that, although I've installed version 1.3.0 of R, the contained foreign package won't be the most recent. Hence, it's worth using update.package(). However, when I did that, I got the following log file: > options(CRAN="http://cran.us.r-project.org/") > update.packages() trying URL

Applying advice received from this helpline, I got the following warning message > library(foreign) Warning message: Package `foreign' contains no R code in: library(foreign) > search() [1] ".GlobalEnv" "package:foreign" "package:ctest" "Autoloads" [5] "package:base" Is this a usual warning message? Please explain

Hi all, I have a large (approx. 1 GB) SAS dataset (test.sas7bdat) located in the server (“R:/” directory). I have SAS 9.1 installed in my PC and I can read the SAS dataset in SAS, under a windows environment, after assigning libname in "R:\" directory. Now I am trying to read the SAS dataset in R (R 2.12.0) using the read.ssd function of the “foreign” package, but I get an error

I just downloaded and installed R 1.6.1 on my Windows machine where I also run SAS. I want to use the 'read.ssd' function so that I can convert a permanent SAS data set into an R data frame. I downloaded and installed the package 'foreign' on my machine, which includes the 'read.ssd' function. I read the instructions, and followed the example closely in the R

Dear R listers, I have a silly problem. I am trying to load a dta (Stata) file in R. The dta is about 650 MB and contains the integrated World Values Survey/ European Value Study data-set. My problem is that I don't manage to load the file. After almost 3 hours after I issued the following command: data <-

Full_Name: Peter Green Version: 1.0.0 and 0.99.0 OS: windows 98 Submission from: (NULL) (194.83.240.36) Running R (either 1.0.0 or 0.99.0) under Windows 98 on my Toshiba laptop (Satellite 4080), I get a problem when I hit the print toolbar button with the graph window on top. It declares an illegal operation, and produces the error messages reproduced below (slightly different in each version).

A consensus seems to emerge : R would excel to exploratory work on small/middle-sized datasets, while SAS would be able to munch much larger datasets. However, I see the "size" problem as a red herring. The objects that have to stay "in core" are usually much smaller than the dataset. For example, for problems involving fixed-effects linear models, you need only some

I have imported the package "foreign" according to instructions ( options(CRAN="http://cran.us.r-project.org/") and install.packages("foreign") ), but when I do so and then use either read.ssd or read.xport I
