similar to: problem installing RSPython

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

Dear list, there are now >400 packages available on CRAN. Would it be useful to classify these packages according to what they do (e.g. classification, graphics, spatial statistics), to assist the user in finding the appropriate package for their problem? Or perhaps the search facility is enough. I would attempt such a classification, but my knowledge of statistical methods isn't good

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

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

Thanks for your help Duncan. Your last comment helped me to figure out what FreeBSD was doing differently than Linux/Solaris. This fix worked on a machine with Python 2.1, R 1.3.1 and FreeBSD 4.1. Here are the details: The pthreads fix: I added '-lc_r' to the PKG_LIBS definition in src/Makevars.in. The FreeBSD 'man pthread' page suggests that adding -pthread to the gcc statement

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

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. V:\>R CMD INSTALL -c C:/Users/gene.leynes/Downloads/RSPython_0.7-1.tar.gz * installing to library 'C:/Users/gene.leynes/Documents/R/win-library/2.13' * installing *source* package 'RSPython' ... **********************************************

Hi Folks, After seeing some tips on the web, I managed to get RSPython-0.7-1 installed with R 2.9.0 (on Ubuntu 8.04). I had to get rid of the extra comma in the PythonPath function in Python.S: .PythonPath <- function(path=NULL, merge = TRUE) { dirSep <- ifelse(R.version$os == "Win32", ";", ":",) (remove last comma before bracket) and I had to manually

To get RSPython installed on my debian test box, I had to make a couple of changes not listed in ftp://www.omegahat.org/pub/Omega/RSPython/FAQ.html 1) I had to change $R_HOME/src/modules/X11 : $(R_X11_la): $(R_X11_la_OBJECTS) $(R_X11_la_DEPENDENCIES) $(SHLIB_LINK) -o $@ $(R_X11_la_LDFLAGS) $(R_X11_la_OBJECTS) $(R_X11_la_LIBADD) $(LIBS) to $(R_X11_la): $(R_X11_la_OBJECTS)

Dear List, I'd like to call pyhton function from within R. I tried installing the latest version of RSPython: wget http://www.omegahat.org/RSPython/RSPython_0.7-1.tar.gz R CMD INSTALL --clean RSPython_0.7-1.tar.gz I get a compile error (posted below). Did anyone else run against this ? Is there a solution ? checking for python... /usr/bin/python Python version 2.6 Using threads checking

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?

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'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 to install RSPython on Solaris 5.9. After compiling R with --enable-R-shlib, I try to install RSPython using "R INSTALL --clean RSPython". This led to an error complaining about missing "libutil", wich seems not to exist on Solaris. Therefore I just removed the "-lutil" entry in "configure" and tried to install again. The installation worked

I am very much a beginner at Python and am trying to get RSPython to work for me to solve a specific problem with geocoding addresses using the geopy library for Python (which appears to be an easy way to geocode large numbers of addresses). While I can load up the RSPython library just fine, when I try to load the geopy module using the importPythonModule('geopy') command, I get an error

Hello, My platform is SuSE 8.1. After downloading and unpacking R version 1.7 I tried building with shared libs enabled. (./configure --enabl-R-shlib). My goal is to use RSPython but I am now in my own private segmentation fault hell. The R build worked fine: make, make check, make install cool. The RSPython build worked fine. Thinking I'm good to go, I run python. But when I import RS

Just a note to complete this thread regarding the RSPython package. A binary version for this package is now available for Windows, compiled against R-1.4.0 and Python 2.2. Also makefiles and instructions are provided for compiling it oneself. It currently works only for one direction, namely embedding Python within R. As time permits, I'll add the embedding of R in Python to make it the same

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.
