Hi, I have good this cool challenge from my boss on developing a very simple cms-like system to publish articles within. The caveat is that he wants to have multi-lingual content. At first I thought RoR would be perfect for the assignment but right now I''m not so sure. My first attempt involved creating a table for each model/languagde like this: articles_en articles_dk articles_de

Hello, I''ve spent a couple of hours now searching for (what I thought) was pretty straightforward. I''m using mongrel together with RoR and need to execute a .rb file located in my public folder (cgi style). But mongrel just can''t do that out-of-the-box - or am I missing something? I really don''t get how I''m supposed to configure mongrel for this

Hi all, I am reading a huge data set(12M rows) that contains family information, Offspring, Parent1 and Parent2 Parent1 and parent2 should be in the first column as an offspring before their offspring information. Their parent information (parent1 and parent2) should be set to zero, if unknown. Also the first column should be unique. Here is my sample data set and desired output. fam

Sorry that I was unclear. For an individual to qualify for my analysis I want both of the following two criteria to be fulfilled: First, I want to select measurement taken at a certain age: for the focal individual the year of measurement (year) should be the same as year.hatch Second, I want the focal individual to be born by a mother that reproduces for the first time. So the /parents /of

Hi people, I'd like to understand valid users and file permissions better. I have a share which is not behaving as I expect.

Dear Rlers, in the following dataset I would like to insert a new column that refers to the data of the previous row. My question is whether the probability of a female (Id) changes if she had given birth to a pup in the previous year. So my dataframe consists of the column Id, year (2003-2007 for each Id) and offspring (=of; 1-0): Id year of 1 2003 1 1 2004 0 1

Hi I am really sorry for this probably quite simple question. I am new to R, and I am running a pipeline that has already been made. All I have to do is give the paths for different folders, where the pipeline can find the files with my data. But every time I try to run the pipeline it returns with the message, that it cannot find the file. And I really don't know why. I have found the path

Is there a way I can have R automatically execute the commands in a source file without ever having to use R interactively? If so, what arguments should I pass to the UNIX call to R? I need to do this to run several R jobs in parallel. An alternative may be to have R and an R package behave as a stand-alone application that can be called from the UNIX command line. Is there any documentation on
