A question for a (experienced) user of the RPython package on linux. I'm trying to call R from python on a linux (Suse 7.3) box. After installing R CMD INSTALL -c RSPython_0.5-2.tar.gz I start python and do: >>> import sys >>> sys.path.append('/usr/local/lib/R/library/RSPython') >>> sys.path.append('/usr/local/lib/R/library/RSPython/Python')

I am a long time user of R for financial time series analysis (xts, zoo, etc) and for my next project I am thinking of adding the Python language to the mix. The reason for adding Python is primarily its non-statistical capabilities. So my questions are what have people's experiences been with using interop between R and Python. I see there are two items, rPy and RSPython. It looks like rPy

I am trying to install Rpy to test it out as an R interface for a project that I am working on. However, I get the following error. Any clues as to what might be going on? I have alo tried RSPython, but I gave up due to errors. RSPython segfaults when started from R and gives an error message I can;t remember from python. Thanks, Brett >>> import rpy Traceback (most recent call

Hello. I'm not a regular subscriber in this mailing list, but I think that this announce may interest somebody. Please, forgive me if this is the wrong place. Based on the code of RSPython, but modifying it a little, I wrote an interface for using R from Python. The main reason for writing it was to make it robust, in order to avoid segmentation faults. Also, it is (IMMO) a very

Hi, I'm planning to write some code in Python using R functions. I'm aware of the two R<->Python packages - Rpy and RSPython. Rpy seems easier to get up and running with, but does anybody have any comments regarding which would be a better system to work with in the long run? Thanks, ------------------------------------------------------------------- Rajarshi Guha <rxg218 at

How can I parse a YAML file in R 2.6.0 in Windows? I cannot get the RYaml package to compile in Windows, I can't find a MinGW compiled .dll for an existing YAML parser like syck (which would appear to be the best hope for creating my own R wrapper functions), and I don't know how to call a Ruby or Python function from R (so that I could parse the file in Ruby or Python and pass the parsed

Hi all, I need the power of R from within some of my Python programs... I use debian linux (woody) at home and windows XP at work (the latter is where I need to get things done!) This are my packages: R 1.8.0 Python 2.3 RSPython 0.5-3 This is what I've done: (1) Since the Windows Binary of RSPython is compiled against Python 2.2 I downloaded the tarball (2) Followed the instructions in

Dear list, Rpy is a python module that provides python interface to R. The following simple commands >>> from rpy import * >>> r.plot(0) is supposed to create a window that displays the result of plot(0). However, we observe that 1. Under *nix, rpy+R+python work as expected 2. Under windows, python + pythonWin32 (a python GUI provided by the pywin32 module), work as expected

I develop quite a bit of R code that I tend to distribute, or let other people embed in their software. One of the things I'd really like to do is find a way to load an R library I've developed, and call one function with arguments. Currently, I achieve that by building a separate R client file, which reads in the command line arguments, loads the library, and calls the main

Hi, I'm trying to install RSPython v0.5-4 on a debian machine (woody, testing) but am having the following problem. $R CMD INSTALL -c --library=/usr/lib/R/library RSPython_0.5-4.tar.gz 2>err But then... $python >> import RS Error in .PythonInit() : Error in Python call: values Error in library("RSPython") : .First.lib failed for 'RSPython' Traceback (most recent

I can compile RSPython without difficulty, been when I try to load it, I get the error messages below. Also below are some cryptic warnings I get on R boot (in case these are pertinent) and my sessionInfo(). Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Mark Warning messages: 1: In .updateMethodsInTable(fdef, where, attach) : Couldn't find methods table for "conditional", package

I've used R for a couple of years on FreeBSD with few problems. Recently, a couple of the contributed packages seem to have difficulty finding symbols in the shared libraries. Currently, I'm running R 1.3.1 on FreeBSD 4.4. I've tried setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH to /usr/local/lib and some other things. The packages I've had trouble with are: Matrix 0.3.15 RODBC 0.8.3 RSPython 0.3

Hello, I tried taking Capistrano out for a test drive and I can''t even get out of the garage.

Hi all, I try to utilize RSPython to invoke Python from R. For me it works pretty fine for basic applications, but I have 3 problems that may be related. (1) I can't load other packages but "standard" ones also when I adjust the PythonPath: > importPythonModule('sys', all=T) NULL > importPythonModule('numpy', all=T) Error in

Does anyone know if Is there a way to manually install RSPython? I get this error when I try to run the script from my DOS prompt.

Hello, I don't know if this question ought to go here, or rather on R-devel, so please bear with me. I'm interfacing to R via RPy (rpy.sf.net) and an embedded Python interpreter. This is really quite convenient. I use this approach to calculate the correlation coefficient of 1 independent dataset (vector) with 4 dependent vectors. It'd be nice if that could be done in 4 parallel

Hi all, I have looked around for help on creating GUIs for R, but haven't found anything. I would be interested in any advice or webpages that have information on the best language, tutorials etc. for creating simple GUIs. Mainly I want to do this as a heuristic exercise. Thanks for any help. Wade Wall [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, where is the latest version of the RSPython library? Is it compatible with the current stable release of R? Thanks, Darren
