similar to: stringsAsFactor global option (was "character coerced to a factor")

Something probably obivous but I don't see it. I needed to find the first 1 or two digits of some 5 and 6 digit numbers since they identified research sites while the rest of the number was the plot id. I converted the numbers to characters, got the first 1 or 2 characters as appropriate and went to add the new vector to the data.frame. For some reason R is insisting on turning the

Good afternoon, guys!!! I am wondering whom among you already have a quota set for your users? You see, I am finding it hard to get a good combination between the number of inodes to set and the number of blocks to set as well. My ideal setting is at least 15MB to 20MB per user. I am using SuSE 7.0 kernel 2.2.16 using Samba 2.0.7. Any ideas??? Any help regarding this would greatly help...

Dear R users, I am facing a pretty a unusual problem while converting character to numeric. Any input would be appreciated. Below is the code and error faced: --------------------------------------- *> str(cmie.dts)* *'data.frame': 4397 obs. of 1 variable:* * $ INE001A01036: chr "1482181740.000000" "1482181740.000000" "1482181740.000000"

Hi!, this issue makes me crazy. I read a lot of docs, also * mailling list and I try a lot of things without success. Any help will be appreciated. Here is the info: Hardware: -------------------------------------------- Supermicro Server with motherboard X7DB8, chipset Intel 5000P, Xeon 5050 Digium TE110P Software --------------------------------------------- Asterisk version 1.2.12.1

Hi! Something funny happens to me in lnme. I don't know if it's a bug or not. Here's a short sketch of the problem (you could skip the introduction and just go to the models): I'm counting the number of spider webs ( = response variable) along two rivers, with a two-level treatment: free-flowing and dammed. There are three field sites (random factor) along each river, and

Given an arbitrary set of character vectors: myvect1 <- c("abc","3","4") myvect2 <- c("2","3","4") I would like to develop a function that will convert any vectors that can be PROPERLY converted to a numeric (myvect2) into a numeric, but leaves character vectors which cannot be converted (myvect1) alone. Is there any simple way

If the following two conditions are met: 1) all.x is TRUE 2) at least 1 row in y does not have a match in x then any character vectors in y will be coerced to be factors. Here is a simple example (previously provided on r-devel): > x <- data.frame(a = 1:4) > y <- data.frame(b = LETTERS[1:3]) > y$b <- as.character(y$b) > z <- merge(x, y, by = 0, all.x = TRUE) > z

I just downloaded version 1.0.0 and several binary libraries (VR, rpart, norm, stataread) - WinNT version. I then converted a file from Stata 6.0 to R format by using the stataread library. The file converts perfectly and I was able to use the VR function lda on the dataframe without difficulty. I then tried to use the same dataframe with RPART. The model statement:

Hi there, I'm experiencing an echo problem and dammed If I can sort it out. We're running Asterisk on Fedora Core 3 64bit, installed as per http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+Fedora+Core+3.

I am not sure if this is a bug within is.na<- or if it lies deeper in the dataframe construction process. Indeed, perhaps it is not a bug at all (in which case I would suggest that the help page for NA be provided with a warning for unsuspecting users (like me)). When used on a character vector within a dataframe, is.na<- coerces the vector to factor. > x <- data.frame(var =

This is not? serious problem but I just wonder if someone can explain what is happening. The same command within a dataframe is giving me a factor and as a plain vector is giving me a character.? It's probably something simple that I have read and forgotten but I thought I'd ask. Thanks #================================================ dat1 <- data.frame(aa = letters[1:10]) str(dat1)

Hi, the samba documentation concerning the migration of a Samba NT4 domain to AD (https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Migrating_a_Samba_NT4_Domain_to_Samba_AD_(Classic_Upgrade)) mentions in section "Important Notes": It used to be thought that using Windows RIDs for Unix IDs was acceptable, time has proven otherwise. But unfortunately no reasoning is given. I am wondering why this is not

Thanks Marc. It never occurred to me that I would need a ""stringsAsFactors" expression in a data.frame.?

The inconsistency is that you use $<- to set the column, then [[<- to change it. Had you tried to set the column by x[[1]] <- as.character(x[[1]]) you would have seen the problem immediately (it does not work as you would have intended). If you want to be sure to turn off conversion to factor, you need to set the column to class "AsIs". My belief is that will behave

Hi, The program below work very well. (snps = c('rs621782_G', 'rs8087639_G', 'rs8094221_T', 'rs7227515_A', 'rs537202_C')) Selec = todos[ , colnames(todos) %in% snps] head(Selec) But, I have a data set with 1.000 columns and I need extract 70 to use (like snps in command above). This 70 snps are in a file. So I create a file to extract them with
