Sorry for this off-topic subject. I am fighting for running SJava under Windows. SJava_0.64 (compiled by Simon Urbanek, thanks), R 1.6.2, Java JDK 1.4.0_02, Windows XP pro: > library(SJava) > .JavaInit() Error in .JavaInit() : Couldn't start Java Virtual Machine: Cannot find the Omegahat interface manager class. Check you classpath! > # And the second time... > .JavaInit() It

Hi, This is (presumably?) a bug in R 1.7.0 under Windows. I have not tested it on other systems. Attachment of packages is case sensitive but not library(), resulting in multiple loadings of the same package if the library name is spelled differently. The following example loads the `tools' package, once as `tools' and once as `Tools'. This behavior is the same with all packages and

Hello, I do not understand the following behaviour. Could someone explain me what happens? > a <- NULL > a$item <- 1:3 > a$item [1] 1 2 3 > rm(a) > a <- NULL > a[["item"]] <- 1:3 Error: more elements supplied than there are to replace Why do I get an error message using list[["item"]], and not using list$item? Best, Philippe Grosjean

I need some guidance on what is the best way to automate R I am aware of Rterm. First question: Is it true that R is not currently OLE accessible under Windows 2000? Second question: Is there an R command that echoes all R Console results to a run log system file? My first attempt to write a run log file is the example from the R Data Inport/Export documentation. > zz<-

Happy New Year, r-helpers! I am using lowess to smooth a scatter plot, xx<-lowess(xinput,f=.04) #defaults for other args followed by turnpoints(xx$y) #defaults for other args I plot the smoothed result as well as turnpoints (using yy$tppos) on top of raw data plot. Result is exactly as expected, graphically. For another purpose, I calcuate the difference between turnpoints (representing

Hi, I was able to connect to a MySQL database (called "zooscan" and with a table "serie" under Win XP with R 1.6.2 using: > library(DBI) > library(RMySQL) Warning message: DLL attempted to change FPU control word from 8001f to 9001f > drv <- dbDriver("MySQL") > con <- dbConnect(drv, dbname="zooscan") > dbExistsTable(con,

Hi List, i am locking for a GUI for R. I have a Debian Woody 3.0 and running R 1.5.1. In office i am using SPSS 9.0 for several years now after Systat for short time and now i would use a statistic software under Linux at home. It seems that R could be that what i am looking for, but i have problems to understand how it works or better explained i would prefer using a good grafic interface.

Bonjour, J'ai t?l?charg? SciViews Insider que je trouve tr?s convivial. Par contre, je n'arrive pas ? comprendre comment enregistrer un script R en type de fichier R justement. Mes programmes fonctionnent tr?s bien, mais SciViews me propose uniquement de les enregistrer au format txt sous un type de fichier "bloc notes". Comment les enregistrer avec l'extension .R comme le

I do not understand what happens here (under Win XP): a <- abs(matrix(rnorm(800*800)/2, ncol=800, nrow=800)) system.time(b <- a^1000)[3] took about 1 sec on my computer with R 1.7.0 and it takes now 4.59 sec with R 1.7.1 Similarly, phi <- 1.6180339887498949 a <- floor(runif(750000)*1000) system.time(b <- (phi^a - (-phi)^(-a))/sqrt(5))[3] took about 0.9 sec with R 1.7.0, and it

Hi R community, These days, I am writing some functions to work with 2-ways frequency tables ; you know all this tuff about measures of association: Chisq and derived (phi, cramer's v), tau b, tau c, somer's d and so on. So I consider all those functions could be gathered in a single R file, as they are coherent and dealing with the same problem / objective (analysis of crosstables).

Hi Folks, Sorry to raise what has probably been discussed before, but I an repeatedly struck by the comparative slowness of S-plus for Windows compared with R for Linux when doing much the same thing. I don't have a direct comparison, because they're not running on the same machine; but machine W has a faster CPU and more RAM than machine L, yet S-plus on W seems to take longer by quite

Hi all, Using R a as a real-time application called by Php for a website, I would like to run one R process only, which would manage user connections. For the time each user who asks for an analysis causes a new R process to start, which is not suitable in prevision of many users. R needs about 30 seconds to run the script which makes the analysis. The problem is that this waiting time is n

Im just attempt writing a function which import manipulate and export spss data, my basic problem when i use the cat command that their is a space to much ? Perhaps here exist a better solution ? cat(paste(path),paste(file)) c:/Project/Allbus/ aprioriTotal.sav test <- function(dir) { for (i in 1:length(list.files)) path <- "c:/Project/Allbus/" file <- list.files()[4] tmpdata

Hi all, I just upgraded to R-1.8.0. Everything worked fine but command line editing does not work. This clearly indicates that readline has not been found in the compilation process. How could I explicitely indicate where to find it ? I use a Red Hat 8.0 system. I checked the FAQ which says readline-devel is also needed, but I have it already installed. Perhaps should I add the configure

Hello all, I've put together a quick and dirty menubar + dialogs + spreadsheet GUI for R using the RGtk package. Performance is not great (OOP is a real memory hog?), the design may be worse, but the hope is that it will be useful in an introductory stats course while we await the arrival of a real gui with ObveRsive and SciViews. The package can be found at

OK, I have made a little search about this "problem" that apparently occurs only on Windows platform... (but I am sure most of you are already aware of it): the slow down is due to the adoption of a different algorithm for pow in mingw 3.x. This is motivated by some other changes in mingw. Here is a quote of Danny Smith that did this change: >When mingw changed default FPU settings

Hi helpers, I've been programming in R for a few months now but I still have doubts about my code - I would like it to be completely S4-compatible. The current code works fine but is probably 'unclean'. I read the interesting article in the last R News and it helped me understand the difference on the whole between S3 and S4 classes, but I need a practical example. Could anyone
