In the windows version (RGui), is there a way to set the text displayed in the titlebar of the R window?

typeof applied to a factor always seems to return "integer", independently of the type of the levels. This has a strange side effect. When a variable is "imported" into a data frame, its type changes. character variables automatically are converted to factors when imported into data frames. Here is an example: > v1<-1:3 >

In some languages there is a function gensym() which returns a new unique name (in the current environment). This is quite helpful when one has to do temporary assignments. I could not find such a function in R.

Hi, I'm trying to combine a VBA macro and a R package. I've installed the R-(D)COM and the R-excel interface by Neuwirth. They seem to work both. However I would like to display the r-generated data in an Excel sheet as an array but I don't manage. Here is an example of my source: Sub doR() Call RInterface.StartRServer Call RInterface.RRun("library(mdnn)") Call

Dear all, I have recently experienced something with the function order I cannot explain: The help(order) (which I admit having overlooked before) rises even more my confusion... The following lines made me think order() was returning the 'order' each value in a vector would take when sorted. > a <- c(4.1, 3.2, 6.1) > order(a) [1] 2 1 3 Doing > plot(a,

Dear R users, I've just posted a similar question about Illustrator. This time I would like to export the results of my statistic tables and my dataframes into Excel files. Up to now I've used write.csv(), but I have to resave every file in .xls in Excel. I would like to know if there is a function or package to export directly into *.xls. I have found xlsReadWrite which would be

I have a big contingency table, approximately of size 60*2*500*500, and I need to count the number of cells containing a count of 1 for each of the factors values defining the first dimension.

Full_Name: Hannu Kahra Version: 1.0.0 OS: Windows Submission from: (NULL) (153.1.50.127) x1 <- lag(x, k=1) returns the original series x. The time series is not shiftet at all. Only the time is shiftet: for x1 new start = old start -1 and new end = old end -1. When I run, e.g. lm(x~x1) the result is not what I expect. Both x and x1 are time series. Is this a bug or am I forgetting something?

I have problems with Rpad and R 2.10.0 (Windows XP and Windows 7, browser is Firefox) Just starting Rpad by library(Rpad) Rpad() opens the browser and displays the .html files and the .Rpad files in my home directory, but these files do not have links and are not clickable. Doing the same in R 2.9.2 gives clickable links in the browser. Furthermore, in both cases an empty graphics window

R 1.4.0 is now sinking into feature freeze, and we'd like some help testing it under Windows. Duncan Murdoch and Uwe Ligges have already volunteered.
