tapply problem
Hello everybody. I have a question that has stumped me and the usual "apply" tricks don't seem to work. I run a course where each student's performance is marked by one or more assessors. I have a data frame containing students' names, assessors' names and their marks, arranged as follows: ID student assessor Q1A Q1B Q1C Q2A Q2B Q3 1 2152833

generic handling of NA and NaN and NULL
Hello everybody I have a generic problem which the following toy function illustrates: f <- function(n) { if(abs(n) < pi) { return(TRUE) } else { return(FALSE) } } I want it to return TRUE if abs(n)<pi and FALSE otherwise. f() is fine as far as it goes, but does not deal well with NA or NaN or NULL (I want these to signal some problem with the

width and length arguments to postscript()
Hi everyone This must be a FAQ but I can't find it anywhere... I want a postscript image of a contour() plot, with axes of equal length. Try R> postscript(file="~/f.ps") R> contour(matrix(rnorm(100),10,10)) R> dev.off() This isn't what I want: the plotting region is, as documented, quarter of an inch shy of the paper edge and the axes appear to be different lengths.

multiple plots and postscript()
Kia Ora everybody. There must be an obvious answer to this, but I can't see it.... I want four square plots in one postscript file. The canonical answer would be: postscript(file="~/f.ps",width=5,height=5) par(pty="s",mfrow=c(2,2)) plot(1:19,xlab="") plot(1:19,xlab="") plot(1:19,xlab="") plot(1:19,xlab="") dev.off() But this

unexpected behaviour of rnorm()
Hello everyone. If I do f <- function(n){max(rnorm(n))} plot(sapply(rep(5000,4000),f)) #[this takes my PC about 30 seconds] then I get something quite unexpected: gaps in the distribution. For me, the most noticable one is at about 3.6. Do others get this? Is it an optical illusion? It can't be right, can it? Or maybe I just don't understand the good ol' Gaussian very

right assignment ("->") and functions

new R documentation on CRAN
Dear R community A few weeks ago, I uploaded a small text file called R-and-octave.txt to the contributed docs section of CRAN. This file details octave/matlab commands and their (near) equivalents in R (Matlab is a widely-used high-level graphics/mathematics tool and octave a free clone). Someone has just pointed out to me that I never announced its existence to anyone, hence this email (I

how can a function tell if defaults are used?
Hello everybody Is there a good way for a function to tell whether the caller used the defaults? I'm writing a little function that may take a pair of real arguments or a single complex argument (in which case I want the real and imaginary components). "e" <- function(first,second=first) { if (all(first == second) & is.complex(first)) {

lexical scope
Hi everyone another documented feature that was a bit unexpected for me: R> x <- 19 R> f <- function(t){t+x} R> f(100) [1] 119 --as expected: x is visible from within f() ..but... R> g <- function(a){x <- 1e99 ; return(f(a))} R> g(4) [1] 23 --the "x" that is visible from within g() is just 19, which is not the one I expected it to find. R> rm(x)

sapply() and Monte Carlo
Dear Helplist Some time ago, Professor Ripley gave me a tip which I thought was very very useful for Monte Carlo simulation; I thought I'd pass it on to the list, and ask whether this or a similar example could be added to the sapply() manpage. Suppose I have ten N(0,1) random variables and I'm interested in the pair that are closest together: R> min(diff(sort(rnorm(10)))) [1]

ordering x's and y's

scoping rules; summary
Hi everyone thanks for the replies. The issue was NOT a font problem; I deliberately chose ll1 and l11 as examples of easily confused variable names (evidently these were too easily confused ;-). The code snippet was written as intended, and increment() contained a deliberate, highlighted, bug. I was asking for guidance on avoiding/finding this sort of coding error. That was why I wrote

quiver plot help
Hello everybody I'm trying to write a simple version of matlab's "quiver". The idea is that I have fluid with velocity defined on a grid. I have a matrix of x-components of velocity and a matrix of y-components and I want to see the overall flow pattern. (I work with 2D fluid mechanics problems).

R 1.4.0 much slower than R 1.3.1

vectorizing a function
Dear R-xperts I have just written a little hypergeometric function, included below [the hypergeometric function crops up when solving a common type of ODE]. It works fine on single values of the primary argument z, but vectorizing it is getting confusing. The best I have come up with so far just tests for z being longer than 1 and if so, uses sapply() recursively. This is fine, except that it
