I have problems with Rpad and R 2.10.0 (Windows XP and Windows 7, browser is Firefox) Just starting Rpad by library(Rpad) Rpad() opens the browser and displays the .html files and the .Rpad files in my home directory, but these files do not have links and are not clickable. Doing the same in R 2.9.2 gives clickable links in the browser. Furthermore, in both cases an empty graphics window

My configuration is Windows XP, R-2.5.1patched. My standard browser in Windows is Firefox 2.0.6, and I am using htmlhelp. I have problems with starting the browser for displaying help. help("lm") works as it should when Firefox is already running. When I do help("lm") and the browser is not yet started, I get Error in shell.exec(url) :

Is there code for bivariate kernel density estimation? For bivariate kernels there is kde2d in MASS kde2d.g in GRASS KernSur in GenKern (list probably incomplete) but none of them seems to accept a weight parameter (like density does since R 2.2.0) -- Erich Neuwirth, University of Vienna Faculty of Computer Science Computer Supported Didactics Working Group Visit our SunSITE at

This is not the right list for your question. Question on how to use R and R's libraries should be posted to R-help at stat.math.ethz.ch Patrick Zhang wrote: > Hello all, > > Trying to implement GARCH(1,1) with ASP.NET <http://asp.net/> and > VB.NET<http://vb.net/>. > It involves optimization of a three-variate function with some constraints. > Learned from

I need to access some internal function of a package temporarily. These functions normally that are not visible outside of the package. I know the MyPackage:::myfunction mechanism, but that does not solve my problem. Instead, I need to add the "internal namespace" of the package to the search path, then I can run a few commands with these functions available, and then the internal

I have a big contingency table, approximately of size 60*2*500*500, and I need to count the number of cells containing a count of 1 for each of the factors values defining the first dimension. Here is my attempt: tab1<-with(pisa1,table(CNT,GENDER,ISCOF,ISCOM)) tab2<-apply(tab1,1:4,function(x)ifelse(sum(x)==1,1,0)) tab3<-apply(tab2,1,sum) Computing tab2 is very slow. Is there a faster

I just uninstalled R 2.7.2 on Windows XP after having installed R 2.8.0 The uninstaller removed the String values HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\R-core\R\Current Version HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\R-core\R\InstallPath despite the fact that they pointed to R 2.8.0 The uninstaller did not remove the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\R-core\R\2.7.2 (and all the values in that key) I think the

I think Rprofile.site as installed with R-2.6.2 contains some misleading information. It contains the following lines # set a CRAN mirror # local({r <- getOption("repos") # r["CRAN"] <- "http://my.local.cran" # options(repos=r)})'. Uncommenting these lines and changing the URL will not work. '. at the end of the last line will break the

I am running R as an invisible subprocess in another program (RExcel). Using try I can catch errors and print the errors produced by an R statement. Is there a way to know if running a statement caused a warning message? last.warning gives me the last warning, but I do not have any indication what the statement was that caused the message. I can of course store last warning before I run a

I do not know if this has been reported already (I searched the headers of the recent messages to r-devel) It seems that 'example' in R 2.11.0 has a problem when the help file does not contain any example. This is what happens on R 2.11.0 on Windows XP. > library(tools) > example(Rdiff) Error in file(con, "r") : cannot open the connection In addition: Warning message: In

I am experiencing some problems with the windows graphics device and bitmaps. (Everything is done in R 2.3.1 on Windows XP) As an example, I will use windows(3,2) plot(1:10) It is not a pretty or meaningful graph, but it demonstrates the problem. savePlot(file="test",type="bmp") creates a bitmap file of size 303x207 which is somewhat strange because it seems to use slightly

RExcelInstaller_2.0-15 installs RExcel, an add-in for Excel, which connects R and Excel. RExcel allows to transfer data between R and Excel, writing VBA macros using R as a library for Excel, and calling R functions as worksheet function in Excel. RExcel integrates nicely with R Commander (Rcmdr), turning R Commander's menus into Excel menus. It comes with a comprehensive set of example

Subsetting from a dataframe with only one variable returns a vector, not a dataframe. This seems somewhat inconsistent. Wouldn't it be better if subsetting would respect the structure completely? v1<-1:4 v2<-4:1 df1<-data.frame(v1) df2<-data.frame(v1,v2) sel1<-c(TRUE,TRUE,TRUE,TRUE) > df1[sel1,] [1] 1 2 3 4 > df2[sel1,] v1 v2 1 1 4 2 2 3 3 3 2 4 4 1 -- Erich

1. This query belongs in r-help, not in r-devel 2. Pity about your shift key... 3. The function you need is deparse() rather than as.character(): > fff <- function(x) { + x*x + } > deparse(body(fff)) [1] "{" "x * x" "}" > 4. There is a reason why as.character works this way. It transforms to character from a more fundamental representation of
