similar to: dribble for R?

I wonder if there is a way to read in CSV files so that - certain fields within each record (line) are ignored, i.e. not converted to columns in the output data frame - factors/levels are created automatically: often, the possible labels are known in advance and could immediately be converted. This would save a lot of memory and time for bigger files, I assume. Johann

Hello, I have a question about addTaskCallback It is said that the argument visible allows to know wether the result of the top-level evaluation was printed or not. Nevertheless, in the following example, I encountered a problem, as it seems not all printed objects are visible... Could someone tell me where is the tip? TIA

I'm just curious if any one else has noticed this. I've bought hard drives from both Walmart and Best Buy. If I can wait, I order them from newegg.com. I'm beginning to think that the staff at both Walmart and Best Buy, somewhere along the supply line must dribble the drives like basket balls. The reason I say that is all the drives I have bought from those two places fail within a few

Is it correct that there is no way of avoiding deep copying of data structures? Or asked from a different perspective, is it true that there are no pointers? :) (not that I am a fan of pointer, they just let me decide when to do deep copy on my own when the memory manager doesnt do it for me :) ) I was considering writing code in R that would need the internal representation of complex graph

I though I should let you all know of this: Trying to build R-0.62.2 on a SunOS xxxx 4.1.4 2 sun4m machine using gcc (gcc version egcs-2.91.57 19980901 (egcs-1.1 release)): gnumake[2]: Entering directory `/tmp_mnt/xxxx/src/R-0.64.2/src/unix' gcc -g -O2 -I../include -I../../src/include -c Rsock.c -o Rsock.o In file included from Rsock.c:8: sock.h:21: parse error before `Sock_read'

Hi to the list. SuSE 9.1, Samba 3.04, + cups, dns, dhcp, apache2, squid, SuSEfirewall2. 2 x 2.0 GHz cpu + 2GB mem. Essentially LAN only. Problem: Server stops responding to logons, logged on users kicked out of home-drives. This happens twice a normal working day. Memory seems to dribble away steadily but surely... My link via ssh (PUtty) stays good. Question: This has been frustrating me for

Dear R-help, This is just a wishlist item: Is it possible at all to make R (optionally) automagically do save.image() periodically (e.g., every fixed number of commands or >= fixed amount of time)? The reason I asked is that I frequently run R-1.3.1 inside XEmacs 21.4.5/ESS 5.1.19 under WinNT, and had seen Rterm.exe crashed a few times for no apparent reason (and not reproducible). When

I have the feeling that this is a dumb question but oh well ... When I have an object x with several attributes, y <- x will make a copy of x with all the attributes included. What if I just want y to get the value assigned but nothing else (no class, names, dim or other attributes)? Johann -- Phone/FAX/Adr/PGPkey ... at http://www.ai.univie.ac.at/~johann

I wonder which binary codings to use for the different "special" values used in R. I want to create binary coded files of double, int, and string values that should get read into R using readBin. Now, what is the correct way to code NA, NaN, Inf, and -Inf for these types? The documentation for read/writeBin doesnt contain any info on that ... (for int and string, there probably is only

I'd like to log all console I/O for an entire session while maintaining normal console I/O. I'm working in Windows98, RGui, R1.1.1. The sink() function is not the answer since it diverts output from the console. In the RFAQ I see references to "...save the contents of the interaction buffer to a file..." and in the R-Help Archive "...just save the console output...". I

Howdy Y''all, I was thrilled to recently discover migrations, as that framework addresses a common problem in an elegant way. I have, however, gotten tripped up a bit as I''ve worked with them. The first problem I encountered was that, though I was using a BigInt data type in a field in my dev database, my unit tests were failing because when I copied the schema from the dev

Batch: For me, batch in its present state is broken and useless. My primary need for batch is to produce a final output file of a session after I have worked out a sequence of procedures. I save my instructions in a file that I can source, then run it in batch to have a copy of input and output together. (If there was a log file (or dribble), this problem would be solved.) At present, there are

The languages I'm faced with compiling in the near future have nonlocal go to statements and nested procedures. A procedure gets implemented as a structure containing its entry point and an environment pointer. It is easy enough to call its entry point and pass the environment pointer as an extra argument (rather like the pointer to this or self in object-oriented code). It's no

Hello, I am new to R and have created an application using R 2.10, with a graphical UI using TclTk 8.5, running on windows 7, quad core machine. The intention of the application is to launch calculations and display results on a graphical dashboard. I've reached a roadblock, and I need to confirm that the following CANNOT be done. I've been trying to find a mechanism for doing the

I''m pretty smart, and was once regarded as pretty network and computer savvy. But the world has obviously passed me by! I have a server in a colocation facility, and I was recently hit by a bill for overage; I used more bandwidth than I expected, and I must pay. So now, I want to bother with packet shaping on the server. The *most* important thing is to clamp bandwidth to the 1Mbps

Hello, I like much addTaskCallback() and friends. However, there are situations were we would like to have a function run BEFORE, not after every top-level tasks. I think specifically to reset options(width = ) to accommodate to the current width of the console, using something like: options(width = system("tput cols")) I am sure there are many other situations where this could be
