Hello, I at first thought this was a system or locale issue, but since it occurs on both Windows and Linux and only for 2004 (AFAIK) I report it. I have a problem with as.POSIXct for the hour between "2004-10-03 02:00:00 GMT" and "2004-10-03 02:59:59 GMT". In short, the 2 AM (GMT) hour in 2004 (but not in other years) is interpreted as 1 AM by strptime: (I use ISOdatetime

Hello, I would like to use mapply to avoid using a loop but for some reason, I can't seem to get it to work. I've included copies of my code below. The first set of code uses a loop (and it works fine), and the second set of code attempts to use mapply but I get a "subscript out of bounds" error. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Xj, Yj, and Wj are also lists, and s2,

I'm having problems entering dates and times around when daylight savings time starts. If I type (on R 1.8.1 on Gentoo Linux) > ISOdatetime(2004,4,4,0:4,0,0,"GMT") [1] "2004-04-03 19:00:00 EST" "2004-04-03 20:00:00 EST" [3] "2004-04-03 22:00:00 EST" "2004-04-03 22:00:00 EST" [5] "2004-04-03 23:00:00 EST" Giving the times

Hi ... I wonder if anyone can provide some insight into why the first three examples using the sunriset function (appended below, with results) give the correct answer, but the fourth generates and error. The first two use ISOdatetime with and without a time zone attribute, and the sunriset function returns the correct sunset time. The third and fourth adds 10 seconds to the ISOdatetime

I have the 'breaks' for the histogram ('hist') but I want weight the cells instead of using actual observations. I thought that using freq=FALSE implied that the numbers in 'x' were weights but this turned out to be wrong. Any help and/or comment is very much appreciated.

Below is a version of [.data.frame that is faster for subscripting rows of large data frames; it avoids calling duplicated(rows) if there is no need to check for duplicate row names, when: i is logical attr(x, "dup.row.names") is not NULL (S+ compatibility) i is numeric and negative i is strictly increasing "[.data.frame" <- function (x, i, j,

I have not used POSIX classes previously and now have a need to use them. I have sports data with times of some athletes after different events. I need to perform some simple analyses using the times. I think I've figured out how to do this. I just want to confirm with others who have more experience that this is indeed the correct approach. If not, please suggest a more appropriate way.

In R 1.9.0 on Solaris/Sparc when I run, for example, install.packages("gregmisc", "~/R-local/lib"), instead of installing the `gregmisc' package in the directory /users/student/rpeng/R-local/lib the package gets installed in /users/student/rpeng/\~/R-local/lib, so the directory \~ is created in my home directory. This doesn't happen to me on Linux or Windows so I

Dear R community, I tried to optimized my R code by using Rprof. In my R code I'm using MySQL database connections intensively. After a bunch of queries R fails with the following error message: Error in .Call("RS_MySQL_newConnection", drvId, con.params, groups, PACKAGE = .MySQLPkgName) : RS-DBI driver: (could not connect mylogin@mydatabase on dbname "myDB"

Converting a data.frame with a nested data.frame to a matrix fails: x <- structure(list(a = data.frame(letters)), class = "data.frame", row.names = .set_row_names(26)) as.matrix(x) #> Error in ncol(xj) : object 'xj' not found The offending code is here, in the definition of as.matrix.data.frame (source/base/all.R): for (j in pseq) {

I’m trying to export a file from R to excel using the xlsReadWritePro function and I keep getting the error below. I get the same error when I use the oledatetime function. My current date format is mm/dd/yyyy, which is how I want it in excel. Also is there anyway to export different datasets to multiple sheets similar to the ods function in SAS? <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns =

I got the error. I haven't been able to get a stand along case so that I can show it here. But could somebody give some clue on what could cause this error? Since I never defined xj[i], I don't understand where this error come from. Error in xj[i] : invalid subscript type 'list'

I was surprised when seq.POSIXt() returned a single value rather than a vector, from inputs that I thought were reasonable. Here's an example to illustrate: > t0 <- ISOdatetime(2002,6,24,0,0,10) ## expected a sequence of 16 times 1 second apart > seq.POSIXt(from=t0,to=t0+15,by='1 sec') [1] "2002-06-24 00:00:10 PDT" ## traces to this call >

After loading the RODBC package version 1.1-7, Ctrl-C changes its behaviour and is quitting R and returning to the (unix-)command prompt on the solaris2.8 platform here. Here's what happened before and after loading RODBC > for (i in 1:10^5) rnorm(10) ^C > library(RODBC) > for (i in 1:10^5) rnorm(10) ^C bash-3.00$ platform sparc-sun-solaris2.8 arch

I would like to suggest a modification to the make.names() function. The current implementation has two problems: 1. It doesn't check if a name matches an R keyword (like "function"). 2. The uniqueness algorithm is not invariant to concatenation. In other words, make.names(c("a","a","a"),unique=T) !=

Dear readers of the list, I have a problem a comparison of two data from a vector. The comparison yields FALSE but should be TRUE. I have checked for mode(), length() and attributes().
