Hi! I am installing R in non standard directory. ./configure --prefix=/non/standard/directory The installation works fine. But after starting R i get .libPaths() /usr/lib/R/library but they cant be there of course! Have I to set some additional switches during config? Eryk Dipl. bio-chem.

Hi! I have installed the new R on windows. I wanted to reinstall the XML package. I am not able to find the XML.zip anymore. I am quite shure that they where a windows binary version.

Hi! I encountered some things trying to build own packages under Windows 2000 for which i found no answer in the documentation. First. 1. I do not found the rcmd.exe in the bin directory of R_HOME. I installed R using the setup.exe 2. I updated the R intatllation with one of the zip files. (rw1041sp.zip) now i had the rcmd.exe in the bin. 3. I do not found any hint in the docu that perl is

Hi! I guess that it cant work. but maybee I am wrong. I would like to define a function rbind. > rbind function (..., deparse.level = 1) { which works only for objects of class Myclass Is it possible to use something like setMethod("rbind",signature(...="Myclass",deparse.level="numeric") This gives an error. Or should I use rbind.Myclass Eryk. Dipl. bio-chem.

Is there a library that is able for example to 1. merge 2 dataframes by row eg.: rbind(dataframe1, dataframe2):data.frame 2. delete a column from a dataframe del(dataframe, colname) or del(dataframe, colindex= 1):data.frame? 3. Select lines from a dataframe by a specific function ? select(dataframe, func=small(x){x<1}, colindex=3): data.frame? 4. converting all double columns of a data.frame

Hi! On the cran "package source" page, to each package there are the "reference manual" in pdf format with a nice title page. I observed that during the R CMD check pkg a pkg-manual.div are generated in the pgk.Rcheck directory. But the nice title page are missing. During the package build and install no div files are produced. Which opitions I have to pass during the build

Hi! I would like to give my objects functions like "subset", "union", et cetera and name it also in this way. But this functions names are already used in the base package and they are not generic. I am right in that if they would be generic then i still can use the neat names with my objects? I have the impression that there are more and more packages are going to be

Hi! Would like to plot two image plots with color scale (like levelplot (lattice) implements) in one graphic device. Tried to plot 2 levelplot's (lattice) (the data has not much in common) in one graphics device by setting par(mfrwo=c(2,1)) which does not work. Is there a way to force levelplot to use only a half of the graphic device? Is there a function like image which provides the color

Hi! How to generate a empty string of a precise length without using a loop? I need a empty string (char **) to pass it with .C function to a c dll. The c routine writes the result into the string.

Hallo! I would like that the internal package functions does not appear in the documentation. I placed they names as aliases in the file nameofmypackage-internal.Rd as advised. After R CMD check (which runs neatly) they are still listed in 00Index.html. Is there no way to hide internal functions from the doc? Have I overlook something? Sincerely Eryk. Dipl. bio-chem.

Hi, I clustered a distance matrix and would like to draw it using plot.hclust or plot.dendrogram. The dendrogram is not informative because I have a few extremely small dissimilarities in the distance matrix (e.g. 0), but most of the other distances are in the range 1e10+-5000. I would like to show the tree only for the height of 1e10+-5000 but unfortunately their are no parameter like

Hi, How to add values to an array at any position. Asking because of the following: e.g. y<-c(0.1,NaN,0.2,NaN) #or data frame x<-na.omit(y) take some columns from x and do some computation with functions which do not allow NaN 's. After the computing add NaN's at positions stored in attr(x,"na.action") of the result vector. /E -- Dipl. bio-chem. Witold Eryk

Hi All, I'm using R1.8.1 on Windows XP. I'm having trouble producing an R library from source code. A colleague has written the source code, in Unix. I've copied the source code across to Windows (with the help files, data files, description and index) and am trying to compile it into a library. I've "sourced" each of the *.r files and they appear to work.

Hi! I am trying to calculate a dissimilarity matrix using daisy. The matrix vectver is binary as i test with: > levels(as.factor(vectver)) [1] "0" "1" But the call to daisy gives me the following error message.: > dfl1 <- daisy(vectver, type = list(asymm = c(1:length(vectver[,1])))) Error in daisy(vectver, type = list(asymm = c(1:length(vectver[, 1])))) : at least

Hi, I want to draw a scatter plot with 1M and more points and save it as pdf. This makes the pdf file large. So i tried to save the file first as png and than convert it to pdf. This looks OK if printed but if viewed e.g. with acrobat as document figure the quality is bad. Anyone knows a way to reduce the size but keep the quality? /E -- Dipl. bio-chem.

Hi, Is the ordering of the values returned something on what I can rely on, a form of a standard, that a function called unique in R (in futher versions) will return the uniq elements in order of they first occurcence. > x<-c(2,2,1,2) > unique(x) [1] 2 1 Its seems not to be the standard. E.g. matlab >> x=[2,2,1,2] x = 2 2 1 2 >> unique(x) ans =

Hi, Please consider the following trivial example. In the sample code I first define a class MVCa using composition. This class contains a slot of type list. Next I define an inheritance relation using the function setIs -> MVCa "is a" list. Then I define a function printlength which prints the list-length which is defined for the type "list". If I call this function

I have a vector with about 100.000 values representing a quite regular function (sinusoid like). I would like to find all local maxima of this function (should be about 4000).

Hi! Is there a way to get a subset of a list? I looking for some function like the function available for arrays and dataframe. x<-1:10 x[-c(1,2)] for arrays or x<-data.frame(a=1,b=2) subset(x,select=-a) But one for a list x<-list(a=1,a=2) subset(x,select=-a) The second problem i have are that i want to store parmeters to the plot.default function in a list. eg.:
