similar to: commandArgs usage and --args invokation

One variable contains values (1.30 - one hour and thirty minutes, 1.2 (which is supposed to be 1.20 - one hour and twenty minutes)). I would like to convert to a minute variable so 1.2 is converted to 80 minutes. How?

I think there's a minor bug in the argument-processing carried out by Rscript. The effect is that if one passes "-g" as a flag to the script, it is erroneously exposed to the main executable's argument processing and therefore generates a message about not being able to comply with the request for a particular GUI. Uppercase G is fine as are the other 25 letters in upper or

Hi All, Another newbie question. I want to write an R script that takes argument from command line and runs and produces output to stdin. For example if there is file foo.R with following in it. args = commandArgs() print(args) then, when I run it like $ R foo.R hello it should print 'hello' on the terminal. I searched the mainling list and found a very old post that said said that

Dear R-core Team, As Thomas Lumley pointed out in one of his e-mails one can use commandArgs() to get a copy of the command line arguments supplied when R session was invoked and then use grep to extract parameters of interest. His solution works very well if the custom options are passed by names, e.g. --my-option=value, but what if one wants to pass parameters by their positions. Then it's

Apologies for asking about this, but I don't quite understand how this works after looking through the FAQ and the Help archives. Let's say I want to pass "1000" as an argument to R. I did the following: >R CMD BATCH --1000 infile outfile When I do print( commandArgs() ), I see [1] ".../R.bin" "--restore" [3] "--save"

Hi all, I am setting up some R program files for use by our DB programmers to enable them to utilize some R functions which will be called from within TCL code. R has been installed on an RHEL server and R will process the results of SQL queries against an Oracle database. In some cases, they will generate a data file to be read in and processed by R, in others they will simply make the

Dear R People: I have used ./R --no-save -q -f e.in >stuff.out with great success on SUSE10.1 with R-2.7.1. My question is, please: is there a way to pass in a variable to the e.in file? I'm fairly sure that the answer is no, but thought I'd double check. Thanks in advance, Sincerely, Erin -- Erin Hodgess Associate Professor Department of Computer and Mathematical Sciences

Hello, I plan to use a script with R CMD BATCH on different platforms Linux, Windows and Mac OSX. I use the commandArgs(trailing = FALSE) function to retrieve the name of the script and the arguments (example below with output.) The online docs for "Introduction to R" (sections B.1 Invoking R from the command line and B.4 Scripting with R) and help("commandArgs")

I realized that it is not commandArgs() rather R itslef that prints the warning to the stdout (which is still not desirable of course): $ R --no-save --no-restore --silent A < /dev/null 2> /dev/null ARGUMENT 'A' __ignored__ =======original message below======== Dear R-Users, I was glad to hear that there is an ongoing work to make R more easily runnable as a batch. I'd like

Hello, I have found what I believe to be a bug in the Linux version of the Rscript binary. Under Windows (official 64-bit 3.5.1 R distribution running on an up-to-date Win10), I can do the following (e.g. under powershell): PS H:\Users\Cesko> Rscript -e 'ls() >> ls()' character(0) character(0) which works as I expect: I am running Rscript with two arguments, namely (1)

Hi, For example, I have several variables in php, like var1 = 1, 2, 3, 5, 6 var2 = 3, 1, 8 var3 = 8, 10, 4, 0, 9, 1 I sent the arguments to R, with this line: '/usr/bin/R --vanilla --slave --args '.$var1.' '.$var2.' '.$var3.' < script.r' In my "script.r" I can read the arguments whit this line: args=(commandArgs(TRUE)) args=as.numeric(args) args

Hello and sorry to bother. Please help. I searched the archives but could not find out why --args is being ignored on Windows 2000. I try R CMD BATCH --slave 11.R 11.Rout --args "12" and 11.R has x=commandArgs(trail=T) print(x) a=x[length(x)] write.csv(a,file="13.out") q("no") the argument is not passed to the R process. 11.Rout only shows processing time and

Hi, I would like to call a R script sometimes with: R --slave --vanilla --args Debug=1 N=25 < test.R and sometimes with R --slave --vanilla Debug=1 < test.R or similar. Inside the R script I get the arguments with: args=(commandArgs(TRUE)) if(length(args)==0){ print("=== No arguments supplied. =============") }else{ for(i in 1:length(args)){

I develop quite a bit of R code that I tend to distribute, or let other people embed in their software. One of the things I'd really like to do is find a way to load an R library I've developed, and call one function with arguments. Currently, I achieve that by building a separate R client file, which reads in the command line arguments, loads the library, and calls the main

I was on vacation the last week and wrote some code to run a 500-day correlation between the Nasdaq tracking stock (QQQ) and 191 currency pairs for 500 days. The initial run took 9 hours(!) and I'd like to make it faster. So, I'm including my code below, in hopes that somebody will be able to figure out how to make it faster, either through parallelisation, or by making changes. I've

Hey, I'm generating a .jpeg file for a web application passing parameters to R via cgi. R gets the parameters by using commandArgs, which are passed to a variable named j and z j<-commandArgs()[3] z<-commandArgs()[4] Later I want to use the characters strings of the argument which the variables are holding for my filename, e.g.: jpeg(file="d:/data/images/jz.jpeg",...)

Hi, $ cat commandArgs.R args=commandArgs(trailingOnly=TRUE) args[1]+10 I have the above code. But the following command line gives me an error. I am wondering what is the correct way to convert a string to a vector? $ Rscript commandArgs.R 1:3 > args=commandArgs(trailingOnly=TRUE) > args[1]+10 Error in args[1] + 10 : non-numeric argument to binary operator Execution halted Regards, Peng

A couple of weeks ago I asked how it is possible to run an R script (not a function) passing some parameters. Someone suggested the function "commandArgs()". I read the on-line help and found no clarifying example. Therefore I do not know how to use it appropriately. I noticed this function returns the pathname of the R executable which is not what I need. I meant to ask if it is

I have the following script (also attached): #!/usr/bin/Rscript spec=matrix(c( 'verbose', 'v', 1, "integer", 'help' , 'h', 0, "logical" ),ncol=4, byrow=TRUE) spec.dim=dim(spec) spec.opt.long=spec[,1] spec.opt.short=spec[,2] spec.opt.l <- spec.dim[1] infile <- "test.dat" args=commandArgs(TRUE); l=length(args) self =
