similar to: print comment lines on `sink'ed files?

Dear all, Can anyone please help me about any of the following questions: -------------------------------------------- 1. How can i find "factorial" of any number in R? I tried > prod(170:1) # to find factorial of 170 or 170! Is it the only procedure - or R has any better process / operational character to calculate factorial? Also, is it possible to calculate factorial of 500? Or

Hello, I would like to sample a population but the result needs to be reproducible, using 'runif' or 'sample' is the good way to do it but I can't manage to make the results reproducible even with the 'set.seed' function. My aim is that th call to 'sample(1:100,10)' gives always the same result, how can I do that? Thanks! Eric Esposito

Hi, I installed the maps and mapdata libraries on my R-1.8.0 on MacOSX 10.2.8 (jaguar on a powerbook G4), and failed to make the map function work properly: R : Copyright 2003, The R Development Core Team Version 1.8.0 (2003-10-08) [...] > library(maps) > map() Error in file(file, "r") : unable to open connection In addition: Warning message: cannot open file

Dear All, yesterday I took the R-1.8.0-source file and compiled it on my own. As I am using Linux just for a couple of weeks, it was my first compiling session with ./configure, make, .... Everything went fine, except for one thing: if I want to look at the commands history by using the cursor keys, it does not work. Instead of displaying the previous commands, it returns something like

Hi jpm miao, You can get CSV files that can be imported into Excel like this: library(prettyR) sink("excel_table1.csv") delim.table(table(df[,c("y","z")])) sink() sink("excel_table2.csv") delim.table(as.data.frame(table(df[,c("y","z")])),label="") sink() sink("excel_table3.csv")

I am looking for other option to write the output of the print command in R I am using sink() to write the R output to a file. This is similar to what I have: > a=c(1:30) > a [1] 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 > sink("vectorA.txt");print(a);sink() I am looking for othe roptions to save the output of the print()

I'd like to capture the results of a print() command so that I can put the results in a tktext widget. I know I can redirect the output to a file with sink. I'm looking for something like that, but where I can redirect the output into a variable. Is there a way to do that?

Thank you to all who made very helpful suggestions to get started with R. Duncan Murdoch raised an excellent question, asking about my background and reason for using R. I'm an epidemiologist, applying the marginal structural models approach (inverse probability of treatment weights) in a Cox proportional hazards analysis. The statistical program which I had been using does not have

I used sink() a lot under linux with no problems. Under windows 2000 & using R 1.5.1, I do the following: - use sink() to direct ouput to a file - use sink() again to direct output to screen - print the file (to a network printer) PROBLEM: the file stays spooled infinitely at the printer. Sometimes the spooling gets translated into a printer error. The only way to get any printing working

Hi, How could we print the frequency table (produced by "table") to an Excel file? Is there an easy way to do so? Thanks, Miao > df <- data.frame(x = 1:3, y = 3:1, z = letters[1:3]) > table(df[,c("y","z")]) z y a b c 1 0 0 1 2 0 1 0 3 1 0 0 > test<-table(df[,c("y","z")]) > as.data.frame(test) y z Freq 1 1 a

Hi All, I am trying to run several linear regressions and print out the summay and the anova reslts on the top of each other for each model.

Dear all, I am trying to benchmark code that occasionally prints on the screen and I want to suppress the printing. Is there an idiom for this? If I do sink(tempfile) microbenchmark(...) sink() then I'll be also measuring the costs of writing to tempfile. I could also sink to /dev/null, which is probably fast, but that is not portable. Is there a better solution? Is writing to a

I'm trying to get Sweave running for automatic report generation, and it seems to run fine when just using verbatim output. However, I've ran into a problem with xtable. I would like to print the following matrix using xtable: > dim(counts) [1] 19 15 All columns are filled with real/integer numbers > 0 and < 1000. Just typing xtable(counts) gives correct LaTeX output, but

Dear all, knitr writes a comment sign in front of each line of console output. This extremely useful, especially for beginners who are starting to write scripts. One could just compose their script in the console (getting immediate output) and then copy the whole chunk into their .r-file. I have been able to configure the options such that the prompt and the continuing line labels are replaced

I see a rich set of graphic device functions to redirect that output. Are there commands to redirect text as well. I have a set of functions that execute many linear regression tests serially and I want to capture this in a file for printing. Thanks, Stan Hopkins [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

There is quite a long piece of code defining a certain function in one of the R packages. I think the code has a bug and I want to get the code into a file so that I can take a proper look, and possibly fix it. how does one do this? (I mean getting the code into a file, not fixing the bug.) I suppose I could copy and paste, but that's a bit error prone for various reasons. I want the same
