Hi All, I cannot upgrade r-base and r-recommended because the latest (latest as in it was not listed as 'upgradable' yesterday but today is) r-base-cose is 2.7.1-2hardy0 not hardy1: r-base: Depends: r-base-core (>=2.7.2-1hardy1) but 2.7.1-2hardy0 is to be installed Depends: r-recommended (=2.7.2-1hardy1) but 2.7.1-2hardy0 is to be installed r-base-core: r-recommended:

Hi All, I have a vector of data, a vector of bin breakpoints and I want to put my data in the bins and then extract fanciful informations like the mean value of each bin. I know I can write my own function, but I would have thought that R should have somewhere a function that took as arguments something like (data, breaks, what to do with the data in the bins). I surey could not find it

Hi All, I have some data I need to write as a file from R to use in a different program. My data comes as a numeric matrix of n rows and 2 colums, I need to transform each row as a two rows 1 col output, and separate the output of each row with a blanck line. Foe instance I need to go from this: V2 V3 27 2032567 19 28 2035482 19 126 2472826 19 132 2473320 19 136 2035480 135

Hi All, I would like to ask the following. I have an array of data in an objetct, let's say X. I need to use a for loop on the elements of one or more columns of X and I am having a debate with a colleague about the best memory management. I believe that if I do: col1 = X[,1] col2 = X[,2] ... colx = X[,x] and then for(i in whatever){ do something using col1[i], col2[i] ... colx[i] }

Hi All, just a quick (?) question while I wait my code runs... I'm comparing the identity of the lines of a dataframe, doing all possible pairwise comparisons. In doing so I use identical(), but that's by the way. I'm doing a (not so) quick and dirty check, and subsetting the data as data[row.numb,] and data[a different row,] I suspect the problem there is that I load into

Hi All, I am trying to build a new R package to submit, but it's failing to create a tex manual: R CMD check Biodem * checking for working latex ... OK * using log directory '/home/greatsage/Fede/R-packages/temp/Biodem.Rcheck' * checking for file 'Biodem/DESCRIPTION' ... OK * checking if this is a source package ... OK * Installing *source* package 'Biodem' ... ** R

Hi All, is there a way of predicting memory usage? I need to build an array of 86000 by 2500 numbers (or I might create a list of 2 by 2500 arrays 43000 long). How much memory should I expect to use/need? Cheers, Fede -- Federico C. F.

Hi All, does anyone ever import old SPSS files in a sl3 format? read.spss('file.sl3') does not seem to work... it's not recognised as a supported SPSS format at all. Best, Fede -- Federico C. F.

Hi there, I hope that's not been asked ad nauseam (but I could not find it in the archives...) but, if I put a CRAN mirror in my sources.list and I try to install the latest R version for 'testing' I get the warning that the packages cannot be autenticated. I tried to figure out how to get a GPG key from the mirror I'm using (the austrian one) in case that's the solution,

Hi All, I have the following problem: I have a vector x = rep(0,15) x[1:2] = 1 x [1] 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 I need to be able to call that vector 'x' so that if condition 'A' is true, only the first value is kept 'as is' and all the others are put to 0 if(A == T) function(x) with x returning 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 and if 'A' is false the

Hi All, I hate to do this (because I always found the R/Debian combo exceptional and I never had the time to ontribute --sorry about that--), BUT, the latest r-cran-vr for Etch (testing) is dpkg -l | grep r-cran-vr ii r-cran-vr 7.2.29-1 GNU R package accompanying the Venables and Ripley book on S and I get the following error if I try to load MASS

A quick question. I am trying to understand how I could move the installed packages in my R 2.3 version to the newly installed R 2.5 version, without having to install all the packages again. I copied the files under the old library subdirectory to the new library subdirectory. But still the newer version is not recognizing the packages that were copied over. Thanks.

Hello dear useRs and wizaRds, I encountered the following problem using the hist() method for the 'times' classes from package 'chron'. You should be able to recreate it using the code: library(chron) # pasted from chron help file (?chron) dts <- dates(c("02/27/92", "02/27/92", "01/14/92", "02/28/92", "02/01/92")) class(dts)

Dear useRs and wizaRds, I am currently developing a set of functions using S4 classes. On the way I encountered the problem exemplified with the code below. For some reason the 'validity' method does not seem to work, i.e. does not check for errors in the specification of the slots of the defined class. Any hints? My understanding of the whole S4 system was that validity checks are made

# I use this code to label a graph with the R2: # graph x <- rnorm(100) y <- x + rnorm(100) lm1 <- lm(y~x) plot(x,y) # label R2text <- substitute(paste(R^2," = ",r2),list(r2=r2)) text(1,-3,R2text, col="red") # i have modified this a bit, so that i have a vector with other labels, each of which # will be labelled on the graph. Example: texts <- c("And the

Hello everyone, I encountered the following confusing behavior of 'deparse' and 'substitute' while programming with S4 classes (see example below). It seems like the presence of '...' argument in the definition of the generic generates the problem. I have no clue why, can anyone explain that to me? Are there any "workarounds"? Thanks a lot for your time!

I have the same question that Eusebio had: Is there a function similar to "sink" that redirect also R code to a file that is: sink("R001") x <- c(2,-6,-4,8,5,4,1,3,4,-9,0,1) A <- matrix(x, ncol=3) A A.prima <- t(A) A.prima dim(A) dim(A.prima) sink() create a file "R001" with contents: ------------------------------------------ [,1] [,2] [,3] [1,]

Hi, I have a problem. Please, look at example and try to help me!! > A<-c("aaa","bbb","ccc","ddd","eee") > B<-c("vvv","ooo","aaa","eee","zzz","bbb") > C<-c("sss","jjj","ppp","ddd") > D<-c("bbb","ccc")
