I'm still getting used to R's scoping. I've run into the following situation value=0 thefunction <- function() print( value ) somefunction <- function() { value=99; thefunction() } somefunction() now, I understand that somefunction() returns 0 because thefunction() was defined with value=0 in its parent envrionment, it dosent look at all in the environment of somefunction. My

Sorry to be posting another question, but my learning curve is starting to flatten some now. What am I missing here? > temp _ name[reis==toupper(location[order(Vgrablow2)][N])] > temp [1] "Lawton" > paste(temp,g) [1] "Lawton" # WHERE IS THE SECOND ELEMENT? > g [1] 0.29 > a _ "Lawton" > paste(a,g) [1] "Lawton 0.29"

I was cursing Matlab again today (what else is new) because the default action for every Matlab command is to spew the result to the console, and one must remember to put that darn ";" at the end of every line. So I just wondered: was there ever a discussion as to providing some modified version of the "<-" and "->" operators in R to do the reverse?

I have a question regarding application of model coefficients between datasets. In particular, I have several datasets which I would like to apply a model estimated from only a single dataset (sort of a crude - out of sample application - to show the variances). lets say, names(a) [1] "stdnoi" "momentum" "tbm3" "metcons" "premium"

I am just starting to learn Sweave (really neat tool). I am pretty early in the learning curve (I had to think a moment ago whether a # or % was the appropriate comment character). I have successfully incorporated simple graphics and outputs, but am having trouble getting a latex (xtable) table to function properly. Latex is seemingly treating the xtable code as input or verbatim text. That

Hi everybody. I have been searching and trying for an answer, but no luck, so here I go.. Is there anyway to execute multiple commands on a single priority in extensions.conf? eg: exten => X.,1,Dial(SIP/1111) & somefunction(${EXTEN}) I need the dial command to dial internal extensions, and the "somefunction" to kick of our own outgoing system for redirection to outside lines;

Dear R-users, I'm trying to work out a way to set default values for arguments in a function which includes the optional argument '...'. In practice, I have a 'plot' method for a function which specifies different types of plots. Every different plot should have different default arguments (for example for 'col', 'ylim' etc), plus the argument '...' to

I can get the interactions between factors like this: > idx=c(1,3,6,9) > jdx=idx > levels(interaction(idx,jdx,lex.order=TRUE)) [1] "1.1" "1.3" "1.6" "1.9" "3.1" "3.3" "3.6" "3.9" "6.1" "6.3" "6.6" "6.9" [13] "9.1" "9.3" "9.6"

Hello all, I am trying to create a matrix of 1s and -1s without any repetitions for a specified number of columns. e.g. 1s and -1s for 3 columns can be done uniquely in 2^3 ways. -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 1 -1 1 -1 -1 1 1 1 -1 -1 1 -1 1 1 1 -1 1 1 1 and for 4 columns in 2^4 ways and so on. I finally used the function combn([0 1],3) that I found at the following link

Hello I apologise for the length of this entry but please bear with me. In short: I need a way of subsampling communities from all possible communities of n taxa taken 1:n at a time without having to calculate all possible combinations (because this gives me a memory error - using combn() or expand.grid() at least). Does anyone know of a function? Or can you help me edit the combn or

Hello! I have a regular data frame (DATA) with 10 people and 1 column ('variable'). Its cases are people with names ('a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f', etc.). I would like to write a function that would sum up the values on 'variable' of all possible combinations of people, i.e. 1. I would like to write a loop - in such a way that it

Hello, outer() is great for avoiding things like: for (val1 in val1s) { for (val2 in val2s)) { x[i,j] <- somefunction(val1, val2) } } The same can be obtained with: outer(val1s, val2s, somefunction) But what if there are three (or more) sets of values to loop over? Any way of avoiding the loops then? Thanks, -- Wolfgang Viechtbauer

Hi all, I am trying to use llvm-gcc to link shared libraries on windows/mingw32. When I try to link libraries that contain functions declared with __declspec(dllexport) someFunction(); I get the link error: Cannot export _someFunction: symbol not found Removing the declspec directive solves the problem, but this is not a very feasible solution for me. Using 'regular' gcc does not

Hi, I am trying to generate all unordered combinations of a set of numbers / characters, and I can only find a (very) clumsy way of doing this using expand.grid. For example, all unordered combinations of the numbers 0, 1, 2 are: 0, 0, 0 0, 0, 1 0, 0, 2 0, 1, 1 0, 1, 2 0, 2, 2 1, 1, 1 1, 1, 2 1, 2, 2 2, 2, 2 (I have not included, for example, 1, 0, 0, since it is equivalent to 0, 0, 1). I have

Hi again, I am exploring if R can help me to get all possible combinations of members in a group. Let say I have a group with 5 members : A, B, C, D, E Now I want to generate all possible unique combinations with all possible lengths from that group e.g. 1st combination : A 2nd combination : B ..... 5th combination : E 6th combination : A, B 7th combination : B, C .... last combination: A, B,

R-2.9.1, Windows7 Dear list, I have a question to you that seems very simple to me, but I just can't figure it out. I have a dataframe called "ratings" which contains the following variables: evalR1, evalR2, evalR3, evalR4, scoreR1, scoreR2, scoreR3, scoreR4, opinionR1, opinionR2, opinionR3, opinionR4. (there are more variables, but this gives an idea of the data structure). What

I have a, no doubt, simple question. I wish to write a function such that a <- 9 b <- 10 changer _ function(x,y) { if (y>x){ x <<- Y+1}} Of course there are easier ways to accomplish the task above, but I am more interested in how to have the "x <<- Y+1" part of the function to change x in place for purposes of a much larger function. I have been wrestling with

Hi all, I am going to be teaching a workshop next week using R and Bioconductor in one of our university's computer labs. They have recently installed R 2.4.1 for me, and I'm checking all my scripts. I just noticed that using the ?somefunction call to access the documentation for that function is not working. On my own PC, the ? call output changed between R 2.3 and 2.4; before it would

I am trying to pass an equation as an arguement to a function, which seems pretty straightforward given lazy evaluation. I constructed the following little test to make sure I sort of knew what I was doing: go <- function(X,eq) { C <<- X*2; d <<- eq} a _ rnorm(100) go(10,eq=a[.5*length(a)]+C+1) > C [1] 20 > d [1] 21.10551 > a[.5*length(a)] [1] 0.1055086 Everything
