Hello, I would like to annotate a graph with the expression 'alpha = 5%' (the alpha should be displayed as the greek letter). I tried > text(1,1,expression(alpha == 5%)) which gives a syntax error. escaping the percent sign (\%) or doubling (%%) does not help. What do I do?

Hello, Im running R 1.8.1 on Win2000 and frequently using the function history() to keep track of what I did in my R session. In a recent session I typed history(max=Inf) and to my surprise there were only 15 lines of code where there should have been approx. 300 lines and I lost a lot of valuable work. Do you have any idea what caused this behaviour? help(history) didn't make me any

Dear all, i have noticed some strange behaviour in the ?jitter? function in R. On the help page for jitter it is stated that "The result, say r, is r <- x + runif(n, -a, a) where n <- length(x) and a is the amount argument (if specified).? and "If amount is NULL (default), we set a <- factor * d/5 where d is the smallest difference between adjacent unique (apart from fuzz) x

Hello: I am trying to use fCalendar for date arithmetic and the RMySQL package for accessing a MySQL database. The fCalendar math operations seem to work fine UNTIL I load the RMySQL package.

Hi, I'm trying to document a data frame in Rd format. The data frame contains a variable called 'Health_Env'. When I create a template for the Rd file using 'prompt()' the variable name is included as-is and when I run R CMD CHECK I get a latex error because latex considers '_' a special character (used for subscripts) which is only allowed in math mode. When I

Hi, How can I specify which functions should be exported when I build a shared library with 'R CMD SHLIB foo.c'?? I tried putting a file named foo.def in the same directory with the line 'EXPORTS' and the names of the functions to be exported, but the file is deleted in the build process. Any help is appreciated, Martin Keller-Ressel

Hi, I want to call R from Perl to generate plots to be displayed on a webpage. What I found out so far is that there is a package called RSPerl on www.omegahat.org which should do what I need. However in the description it says it has been tested with R 1.3.* the latest. I'm using R 1.8.0 right now so the package seems rather unmaintained. It is not easy for me to just install it and see

Dear R users, I have problem with the library fCalendar. I am not using the US standard format notations. It seems like it is not possible to have different format than the US standards. Anyone how knows a way to go around this problem? Here is the code I enter: myDate = "12.03.2005" timeDate(myDate, format = "%d.%m.%Y") And I get following error message: Error in if

Dear, I'm a master student mathematics at university Gent, who's writing a thesis about vines and copula's. I'm in trouble with the package 'fCalendar' which I need for running 'QRMlib'. The problem is that 'fCalendar' doesn't have a namespace. I need to use R.2.14.1 because I also need the package 'vines' which only works for R.2.14.1. I'm

I am using the following command from the Fcalendar Package : x = timeSequence("1992-12-31","1994-12-31") and then y = as.character(x) is a vector of character strings "[1] 1992-12-31" "1993-01-31" "1993-03-03" "1993-03-31" "1993-05-01" etc This is very close to what I need and thank you very much to whomever wrote

This is not a bug in R: the documentation does say the result is OS-specific. `GMT' is a not a proper timezone on Windows, so NA is a valid answer. (Windows seems to use GMT to refer to the timezone of the UK, e.g. > Sys.time() [1] "2005-07-11 07:49:56 GMT Daylight Time" > Sys.timezone() [1] "GMT Daylight Time" although I am in British Summer Time not GMT.)

I am attempting to value convertible bonds through a Monte Carlo approach. I want to express call schedules as date-price tuples. Naturally, these tuples need to be expanded to match the frequency of the innovations in the MC process. 1. Is there a straigh-forward way to accomplish this "expansion"? 2. I have noted the existance of ts, its, zoo and fCalendar. Does anyone have an

Hello, R 4.0.2 on Ubuntu 20.04, sessionInfo at end. This came up in r-help, I'm answering to the OP and also posting to r-devel since I believe it is more appropriate there. I can confirm this. The original instructions are the first and the last, but even with smaller numbers the error shows up. set.seed(2020) jitter(c(1,2,10^4)) # desired behaviour #[1] 1.058761 1.957690

Hi R, Please see the below commands. The question is I can see the value of log(2) before loading the package fcalendar in R. But after loading the package, the 'log' function doesn't work. How to solve this problem? Also note that the function code differs before and after downloading the packages. > log function (x, base = exp(1)) .Primitive("log") >
