similar to: rowsum dimnames

The result of rowsum() in R doesn't have the dimnames I'd expect, e.g.: > rowsum(matrix(1:12, 3,4), c("Y","X","Y")) [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] 1 2 5 8 11 2 4 10 16 22 whereas S-Plus gives the more useful result: [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] X 2 5 8 11 Y 4 10 16 22 This is because R's rowsum() code gives the

Hi, all, I've been converting code from S-Plus ("S" for short) to R for a few weeks. Here are some differences I've found, aside from the big well-known ones (scoping, models, data storage) and the contents of Kurt Hornik's FAQ section 3.3.3. Let me start with the ones that seem like serious bugs or deficiencies: 1) LETTERS[c(NA,2)] in S is

Also in assign() there some arguments lacking in R such as 'frame' and 'where', though I guess that 'frame' in S may be similar to 'pos' in R.

Hi, I asked this question 2 years ago, and would like to know if the answer has changed. In S-Plus, I build databases of many large objects. In any given analysis, I only need a few of those objects, but attach'ing the whole database is fine since objects are only read as needed. How can I do the same thing in R, without reading the entire database? One possibility is to treat

Dear all, I am using "coxme" function in Kinship library to fit random treatment effect nested within centre. I got 3 treatments (0,1,2) and 3 centres. I used following commands, but got an error. > ugroup=paste(rep(1:3,each=3),rep(0:2,3),sep='/') > mat1=bdsmatrix(rep(c(1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1),3),blocksize=rep(3,3),dimnames=list(ugroup,ugroup)) >

Hi, I understand work is being done to improve read.table(), especially by Prof. Brian D. Ripley. I offer below a version that I wrote, in the hope some aspects of it may prove useful or at least inspire discussion. Be aware that my version differs in a couple fundamental ways that reflect my aversion to dataframes and factors. So it returns a list of vectors which are all character,

Thanks to Henrik Bengtsson, Martin Maechler, Brian Ripley, Jeff Gentry and David Brahm for taking the time to answer my questions about INDEX files in R packages. My key take-aways were: 1) All of this will be changing a lot in R 1.7.0-to-be, so don't sweat the details. 2) Many people run R CMD build before they run R CMD check. I found this quite surprising. I did not realize that R

Hello, R-devel! I posted to R-help, and (inappropriately) to R-bugs, this R/S-Plus difference: > LETTERS[c(NA,2)] in S is c("","B"), but in R is c("NA","B") Kurt Hornik <Kurt.Hornik@ci.tuwien.ac.at> wrote: > I think we do not want to change this. ... > R> is.na(LETTERS[c(NA,2)]) [1] TRUE FALSE > so we really have NA but it is

(a) In R 2.12.2 rowsum can overflow if given an integer input: > rowsum(c(2e9L, 2e9L), c("a", "a")) [,1] a -294967296 > 2^32 + .Last.value [,1] a 4e+09 Should it be changed to coerce its x argument to numeric (double precision) so it always returns a numeric output? (b) When rowsum is given an x containing both NaN and NA it appears to use the last

If all rows are in the same "group", rowsum() returns a vector instead of a (1xN) matrix, contrary to documentation: R> print(z <- rowsum(matrix(1:12, 3,4), rep("x",3))) [1] 6 15 24 33 R> dim(z) NULL It worked correctly in version 1.4.0 but was broken by version 1.6.1. I'm currently using 1.7.1 under Solaris 2.8. --please do not edit the information

Hi-- This is a question with a trivial and obvious answer, I'm sure, but I can't seem to find it in the help files and books that I have handy. I have a dataframe consisting of two columns, "Gene_Name," a list of gene symbols, and "Number," a numeric measure of how frequently a tag representing that gene showed up in a SAGE library. Several of the genes are

Dear R users: I'm new to R and am trying to fit a mixed model Cox regression model with coxme function. I have one two-level factor (treat) and one covariate (covar) and 32 different groups (centers). I'd like to fit a random coefficients model, with treat and covar as fixed factors and a random intercept, random treat effect and random covar slope per center. I haver a couple of

Hello, I am trying to achieve something which I *think* is possible using rowsum, but a little help should be useful: Consider the following dataframe DF0: A B C 89 1 140 89 06 20 89 29 137 89 52 13 89 57 10 89 97 23 89 1 37 89 1 12 89 1 3 52 1 11 52 1 31 52 1 16 52 1 6 52 1 10 52 1 13 52 1 10 52 1 25 52 1 2 52 59 38 52 97 75 57 1 14 57 1 13 57 1 14 57 114 12 57 1 23 57 06 26 I need create a

'rowsum()' seems to add row names to the resulting matrix, corresponding to the respective 'group' values. This is very handy, but it is not documented. Should the documentation mention it so it could be relied upon as part of API?

Environment variables set with Sys.putenv() disappear (i.e. become "") after a while, especially after heavy-duty I/O. Example: R> x <- matrix(1., 3000, 3000) R> save(x, file="myx.RData") R> Sys.putenv(HOME="/tmp") R> while (Sys.getenv("HOME") != "") {cat("ok\n"); load("myx.RData")} The loop prints

The rowsums function was originally an internal part of the survival package, used for fast computation of certain sums when there is a cluster() statement. It was Statistical

Dear list, I have some trouble generating a frequency table over a number of vectors. Creating these tables over simple numbers is no problem with table() > table(c(1,1,1,3,4,5)) 1 3 4 5 3 1 1 1 , but how can i for example turn: 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 into 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 2 0 1 0 3 My second problem is, sorting rows and columns of a matrix by the rowSums/colSums. I did it

Hi, Reading http://ssc.wisc.edu/~ahanna/20_newsgroups.csv after downloading it using data <- read.csv("20_newsgroups.csv",header=TRUE) throws this. Warning message: In scan(file, what, nmax, sep, dec, quote, skip, nlines, na.strings, : EOF within quoted string So, for example, the first line in the file is this. This column contains only such text. Is there a way read it ?
