Hi all, Sorry if this doesn't end up in the thread. Tobias Verbeke forwarded that e-mail to me, because he thought I would be interested in maintaining the Programming Tools CTV. I wasn't subscribed to R-devel yet, but I would indeed like to volunteer to maintain the Programming Tools CTV. It will be my first time creating a CTV, so some guidance on getting it setup will be appreciated.

I have data in i,j,r format, where r is the value in location A[i,j] for some imaginary matrix A. I need to build this matrix A, but given the sizes of i and j, I believe that using a sparse format would be most adequate. Hopefully this will allow me to perform some basic matrix manipulation such as multiplication, addition, rowsums, transpositions, subsetting etc etc. Is there any way

Hi, Sorry for the delay, it has taken some extra time as more than one bug showed up ☺ I continued to look into this with your viewpoint that a node that is conservatively allocatable should never be spilled. The first thing I did was therefore to add some extra code with an assert for this. I believe I then found three bugs and fixed the two: Bug 1: Incorrect transpositions in handleAddEdge()

Hi, In addition to GADA, what are the available package in R and bioconductor to analyze amplification, deletion, LOH and indels of CNV, SNP data? Any reference is welcome. Best, Carol

L.S. Since some time there is a new r-project.org site as announced here: https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-announce/2015/000581.html The logo has changed on the site, but I fail to find a vector graphics file. For the previous logo I used to go to https://svn.r-project.org/R-dev-web/trunk/Logo/ Is there anything similar for the new logo? Many thanks in advance. Kind regards, Tobias --

Full_Name: Tobias Verbeke Version: 2.1.0 OS: GNU/Linux Submission from: (NULL) (81.247.252.229) Would it be possible to use a non-ambiguous example of expressing a day according to the ISO 8601 international standard in the first sentence of the Note section of ?strptime, e.g. "2001-04-18" instead of "2001-02-03" ? Yours, Tobias

Hallo, does a package for Matlab exist in R? If yes, where can I find it and how can I install it under R? Thanks, Corinna

I'd strongly second the notion of using github. The biggest advantage is that others can easily contribute changes through pull requests which lifts much of the burden from your shoulders.

L.S. In this bug report https://bugs.r-project.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=14493#c1 it is mentioned that after moving an R installation one should regenerate the Rscript executable. Is there an easy way to do so (after an R installation has been moved)? I have not found any information in the R installation and administration manual. Many thanks in advance for any pointer. Best wishes,

Many thanks, Duncan. We will check the prerelease versions of R 3.2.1.

I am using Mandrake 8.0 (on /dev/hda5) with Windows 2000 (on /dev/hda2) mounted as /mnt/win2000 and the windows swap file (on /dev/hdb12) mounted as /mnt/k. I installed wine-20010305-1.i386.rpm and then ran winesetup. When it got to Autodetect I got following message: Unable to detect any users on WinNT/2k partition mounted on /mnt/k. This means that this windows installation is probably

Hi, I have been using R for a while. Recently, I have begun converting my package into S4 classes. I was previously using Rdoc for documentation. Now, I am looking to use the best tool for S4 documentation. It seems that the best choices for me are Roxygen and Sweave (I am fine with tex). Are there any users of Roxygen or Sweave who can comment on the strengths or weaknesses of one or othe

L.S. I noticed the NEWS file as made available at http://cran.r-project.org/src/base/NEWS became inconsistent in describing CHANGES for a new R version: $ wget http://cran.r-project.org/src/base/NEWS $ cat NEWS | grep 'CHANGES IN ' CHANGES IN 3.2.0: CHANGES IN R 3.1.3: CHANGES IN R 3.1.2: CHANGES IN R 3.1.1: CHANGES IN R 3.1.0: CHANGES IN R 3.0.3: CHANGES IN R 3.0.2: CHANGES IN R 3.0.1:

Dear list, Is there an exact formula / safe rule of thumb that allows one to express the value of --max-ppsize as a function of the value of getOption("expressions") ? ?options tells "If you increase it [the expressions option], you may also want to start R with a larger protection stack". Motivation is to determine stack size of a Java vm used to launch R with a given

Dear R help list members, I am experiencing difficulty in trying to generate a subscript '2' in an axis label. Although I can get the '2' into a subscript using expression(), R then forces me to leave at least one space between the '2' and the following character. My label is supposed to read 'N2O concentration (ppm)', and the space between the '2' and

> A node should never be put into the conservatively allocatable list if there is a chance of it spilling. I can understand why the logic of NodeMetadata::isConservativelyAllocatable is necessary for the node to be allocatable, but I have not been able to convince myself this is sufficient, especially when the node degree > available registers. Cheers, Arnaud From:

It appears that the chromatic adaptation feature of `grDevices::convertColor`is broken, and likely has been for many years.? While a little surprising, it is an obscure enough feature that there is some possibility this is actually broken, as opposed to user error on my part.? If it turns out to the latter, I apologize in advance for spamming this list. Consider: ??? rgb.in <-

As I understand it lme (in R v1.9.x) estimates random effect variances on a log scale, constraining them to be positive. Whilst this seems sensible, it does lead to apparently biased estimates if the variance is actually zero - which makes our simulation results look strange. Whilst we need to think a bit deeper about it - I still haven't got my head around what a negative variance could
