similar to: scripts with littler / subroutines

Hi, I'm trying to write R scripts using littler (under Debian), and was originally using the shebang line: #!/usr/bin/env r However this picks up any .RData file that happens to be lying around, which I find a little disturbing, because it means that the script may not behave the same way on successive invocations. If you drop the /usr/bin/env trick then #!/usr/bin/r --vanilla seems to

Hi, I'm trying to write a series of pipes using littler, and I get the following behaviour: Sorry if I'm just doing something witless, I'm new to R. I'm using the latest versions from debian testing (2.4.0 and 0.0.8). $ r -e 'a<-dget(file=stdin()); print(a)' ?list(a=2) Segmentation fault In R itself this works: > dget(file=stdin()) ?list(a=2) $a [1] 2 As do (from

Hi, people. I met a little problem for which someone might have a solution. Let's say I have an executable file (named "pp.R") with this contents: #!/usr/bin/Rscript options(echo=TRUE) a <- 1 Sys.sleep(3) a <- 2 If I execute "./pp.R" at the shell prompt, the output shows the timely progress of the script as expected. If I use "./pp.R | tee

Greetings, Sorry for the basic question, but I am trying to find out if R is a suitable platform for what I want to do... I am interested in creating simulations of distributed algorithms (i.e. team formation, Byzantine Generals , P2P communication modeling, mobile networks) that would be represented in GUIs. I would like to be able to instantiate an object for each node in my simulated

Hi, I am new to R and I would like to display an image on a plane in a 3D plot, i.e. I would like to be able to specify a theta and a phi parameters like in the function persp to display a 2D image on an inclined plane. Regards, vincent [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, people. Two days ago, I sent to this list a little toy for exploring polynomiographs (yet, the mathematical formulas were not polynomials anymore, so the name is not really appropriate). After studying R calls, expressions and functions a bit more, I gave myself the homework of producing an animation out of my recent toy. The resulting animation, and also the sources, are available at:

Hi, people. xy.coords() does not behave like its documentation says, when given some matrices. ?xy.coords says: If 'y' is 'NULL' and 'x' is a [...] formula [...] list [...] time series [...] matrix with two columns [...] In any other case, the 'x' argument is coerced to a vector and returned as *y* component [...] Now, consider this short

Except for the ability to perform circular recalculation, I believe that the closest programming analogy to a spreadsheet is a functional programming language. Check out Haskell (or LISP or Erlang) to do what you describe. -----Original Message----- From: r-help-bounces at stat.math.ethz.ch [mailto:r-help-bounces at stat.math.ethz.ch] On Behalf Of Fran?ois Pinard Sent: Wednesday, August 29, 2007

Hi, people. Executing the following command: hist(rpois(100,5), labels=TRUE) yields a graphic in which some labels are truncated (on an X11 device). The truncated labels are those over the highest bars. The hist function should ideally manage enough room for the labels, automatically. (Specifying ylim solves my problem, but yet, hist could be frienlier.) --please do not edit the

Hi R user, I am new to R, and I have a very simple question for you. I have two matrix A and B, with internally redundant rownames (but variables are different). Some, but not all the rownames are shared among the two matrix. I want to create a greater matrix that combines the previuos two, and has all the possible combinations of matching rownames lines among matrix A and B. looking for the

Dear R-helpers, Is it possible to create a type of 'movie' in R based on the output of several figures (e.g., jpegs) via the plot() function. I obtained dynamic results with the plotting function and would like to save these as a movie (e.g., avi or other formats)?

Hi, people. Allow me to chat a tiny bit on two vectorisation-related matters, in the context of R. I'm curious about if the following ideas have ever been considered, and rejected already. First is about using the so-called Duff's device for partially unrolling loops. I did not overly check in R sources, and am not familiar with them anyway, but the only usage I saw is within

Hi, people. I was a bit intrigued by the message quoted below. Indeed, if pt() is given a matrix, it returns a matrix. Should this feature be documented? ?pt speaks about "a vector of quantiles", and says nothing about the type of what it returns. The same might presumably apply to other distribution-related functions. ----- Forwarded message from Martyn Plummer <plummer at

Hi, Short Version: Is there a function to re-bin a histogram to new, broader bins? Long version: I'm trying to create a histogram, however my input-data is itself in the form of a fine-grained histogram, i.e. numbers of counts in regular one-second bins. I want to produce a histogram of, say, 10-minute bins (though possibly irregular bins also). I suppose I could re-create a data set as

Hello R users... how to align this Zmat (triangle image) in X axis? I would like that the triangle's base become in the X axis and the triangle's height become in the Y axis Is there some trick for make this? Thanks.
