Dear all, I am running R : Copyright 2005, The R Foundation for Statistical Computing Version 2.1.1 (2005-06-20), ISBN 3-900051-07-0 Under Mac os X, a french version! I am preparing a package and I got the following issue I am trying to read dates that are written in english and have them recognized by R using as.Date function. I realized strangely that when I type > month.abb [1]

Hello, I not have attached in this e-mail the zipped list of matrices I am using because it has 1 meg once zipped and anyway we cannot send attached files on r-help mailling list. First, after running the code that is written bellow, I realized that the printout of dudi.pca gives me for both of my matrices $cw length that are unequal to either respective $rank or $eig lengths. Is that

I was wondering if someone could help me! Here is what I don't understand! Why the text in the function isn't showing up before the locator action? ########### plot(1:10) toto<-function(){ cat("Why this text isn't showing up before the point selection !!!!!!!!") point<-locator(2) return(point) } toto() P.S.: I am using the most recent version of R for mac Thanks

I'm trying to create maps of reptile abundance in different states & counties using data from Herp.net, which provides lists of specimens with the places that they were found. First I would like to parse the list by state using 2-letter abbreviations, since I'm focusing on certain regions. To do this, I've been trying to create a vector (state2) that gives all state names as

Dear all, Here is a simplified version of a function I made: ############ plotfunc<-function(x){ #x a vector cat("please select two points","\n") plot(x) points<-locator(2) return(points) } ############ Using R version 1.01 for mac os x (aqua GUI) I would like to know what should I do to make sure that my text line will be printed prior to the drawing of the plot.

When ploting a timeseries, the months are shown with abbreviation in the current language of the system. For example, x <- seq(from=as.Date("2000-04-01"), length.out=100, by=1) y <- rnorm(length(x), 5,2) plot(x, y) Show for me "avi mai jui jul" as I use R with French language localization. I see in the Windows FAQ how to completely change the language of R, but I

I think I'm missing something tonight in the usage of 'legend': plot(0, type="n") legend(locator(1), month.abb[1:5], pch=15, col=1:5) gives me something similar to what I want. But legend(locator(1), month.abb[1:5], fill=T, col=1:5) gives me 5 black boxes. What am I doing wrong? Thank you, > version _ platform i686-pc-linux-gnu arch i686 os

Hi Simon, thank you for the concise reply. Do you mean the reported behavior of drop() is not a bug? It looks like a borderline bug to me (see below), but I'm not the judge of that. If this is the intended behavior and serves an actual purpose, then that could be explicitly documented in a \note{} on the help page. Such a note would slightly reduce the surprise of users running into this

I have noticed a significant performance degradation using merge in 2.9.1 relative to 2.8.1. Here is what I observed: N <- 100000 X <- data.frame(group=rep(12:1, each=N), mon=rep(rev(month.abb), each=N)) X$mon <- as.character(X$mon) Y <- data.frame(mon=month.abb, letter=letters[1:12]) Y$mon <- as.character(Y$mon) Z <- cbind(Y, group=1:12) system.time(Out

Hi all, I am just curious how to sort the groups in a categorical box plot chart bwplot here is the example: d<-data.frame(sample(rep(month.abb,20), 100), runif(100,1,10)); colnames(d) <- c("Month", "Value"); bwplot(d$Month ~ d$Value); as you can see Months are not sorted alphabetically. Does anybody know ho to sort those on the chart level? Thank you Jan

Hey, As announced earlier, here comes our project description. It would be great if you could add it to llvm.org! Tobias -- The Real-Time Systems Compiler (RTSC) The Real-Time Systems Compiler (RTSC) is an operating-system–aware compiler that allows for a generic manipulation of the real-time system architecture of a given real-time application. Currently its most interesting application is

I just tried ?Constants at the console and was disappointed that the so-named base help page would not come up. > ?Constants No documentation for 'Constants' in specified packages and libraries: you could try '??Constants' Seems like there should have been a match. I was looking for the month abbreviations, failing to hit the right name 4 times and then failing 3 more

I am sorry, I'd like to split my column ("names") such that all the beginning of a string ("X..") is gone and only the rest of the text is left. x<-data.frame(names=c("X..aba","X..abb","X..abc","X..abd")) x$names<-as.character(x$names) (x) str(x) Can't figure out how to apply strsplit in this situation - without using a

Hi, I'm trying to plot a simple time series. I'm running into an issue with x-axis The codes below will produce a plot with correct x-axis showing from Jan to Dec > rr=c(3,2,4,5,4,5,3,3,6,2,4,2) > (rr=ts(rr,start=c(2012,1),frequency=12)) > win.graph(width=6.5, height=2.5,pointsize=8) > plot(rr, xlab="2012", ylab="event freq", xaxt = "n",

I need some help here... ;-) I'm experimenting with global ACLs, but just fail to understand very basic behaviors. So, before digging into the source code, I would really be delighted if someone could immediately point a mistake I'm making and miserably overlooking. The output of dovecot -n is provided at the end of this email. Just in case, conforming to the suggestion made in

Given a data frame with a continuous variable and a factor. I would like to generate a histogram of the continuous variable, where each bar is filled with different colors according to the percentage of factor values falling into this region of the continuous variable. I looked into packages like 'lattice' and 'ggplot2'. Searching R-help revealed that 'histogram' is

can you recommend a good manual for R that starts with a data set and gives demonstrations on what can be done using R? I downloadedR Langauage definition and An introduction to R but haven't found them overly useful. I'd really like to be able to follow some tutorials using a dataset or many datasets. The datasets I have available on R are Data sets in package 'datasets':

if i have a host with a particular ip address running as a domain master browser and registered as such with my wins server, and then i change the ip address of this host, does the old registration with the wins server eventually go away so that the new ip address can be registered? if so, how long should this take? how would one force the old ip address to be forgotten? -- Todd Pfaff
