Dear all, Is there a quick and easy way of converting utf characters to the \uxxxx form (necessary e.g. for packages)? I mean something working like this: > utf2uxxxx("õäöü") [1] "\u00f5\u00e4\u00f6\u00fc" It is easy to program but perhaps someone already has implemented this. (I couldn't find anything useful from searches incl RSiteSearch). Thanks in advance, Kenn

Dear all, I've used RODBC a lot to read in files created in MS excel and access but found a strange problem today: a variable in my data file contained both numbers and text; sqlFetch would set text within a row of numbers to NA; but if first 5 or 6 rows would be text then all numbers would be read in as NA. con<-odbcConnectExcel("xample.xls") #the file is attached or at

Dear all, I am working with a list of objects each of which contains two POSIXct objects (say, $Start and $End) and a number of different data in addition to that. Now an easy way to extract Start times of all object could be sapply(x, "[", "Start") but this converts them all to numeric, and so does sapply(x, "[[", "Start"). lapply preserves the class but

There was a question in R forum very long time back.. on how to protect R Script files from inadvertent editing by users. There is a way to do this from within R, atleast in Windows XP I have tried this and it certainly works , The method is very different from the OS based folder protection route, however making available such a method in the open forum would only kill the very spirit of R.

Hallo! I would need a code for 10-fold cross validation for the classifiers Naive Bayes and svm (e1071) package. Has there already been done something like that? I tried to do it myself by applying the tune function first: library(e1071) tune.control <- tune.control(random =F, nrepeat=1, repeat.aggregate=min.,sampling=c("cross"),sampling.aggregate=mean, cross=10, best.model=T,

Dear all, I sometimes use the following function: Curry <- function(FUN,...) { # by Byron Ellis, https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2007-November/047318.html .orig <- list(...) function(...) do.call(FUN,c(.orig,list(...))) } ... and have thought it might be convenient to have a method for [ doing this. As a simple example, > apply(M, 1, mean[trim=0.1]) # hypothetical

Hello all I would like to ask your help use mapply. I have a function called findCell that takes two arguments(x,sr) where x is a vector of size two (e.g x<-c(2,3) and sr is a matrix. I would like to call many times the findCell function (thus I need mapply) for different x inputs but always for the same sr. as x is a vector of size two (two cells) I want to pass inside inside the following

Friends. I cannot simplify this much, and I think the loop is unavoidable. As a recovering C programmer I want to avoid loops and in cases like this I almost allways can by using an apply function. But I suspect in this case there is nothing I can do. It is a finance example where a price series is compared to a moving average. If the price goes above the average, plus a bit, buy the

Sorry sending this again - is anyone familiar with multiple transparent wireframe plots? I already checked the ?wireframe, but with no examples and as newcommer its hard to find out a correct code. If we set drape=F in the example: g <- expand.grid(x = 1:10, y = 5:15, gr = 1:2) g$z <- log((g$x^g$g + g$y^2) * g$gr) wireframe(z ~ x * y, data = g, groups = gr, scales = list(arrows

Hello everybody, I'm trying to predict a linear regression model but it does not work. My Model: y = Worktime + Vacation + Illnes + Bankholidays My modelmatrix is of dimension 28x4 Then I want to make use of the function predict because there confidence.intervals are include. My idea was: mod <- lm(y~Worktime+Vacation+Illnes+Bankholidays) newdate=data.frame(x=c(324,123,0.9,0.1))

Hallo everybody. I want to build my own GO package using the function GOPkgBuilder of AnnBuilder. It uses AnnBuilderSourceUrls to collect data from different ftp sites. These data are not complete for my organism, so I would like to change the ftp adresses to a local one. The changing itself is working but when I run the script I get the following Error: Error in

Hello When I try to install MS Train Simulator the setup.exe program switches to full screen mode. This full screen mode hides all other installer windows. The window that asks me if I want to install Adobe and the window that asks me to replace CD1 with CD2 are not visible. Therefore it is necessary to guess what I should do during the installation and do the input blindly. The main

Dear R-users, Is there a way I can prevent global variables to be visible within my functions? Sebastien

Hello R, According to: g <- expand.grid(x = 1:10, y = 5:15, gr = 1:2) g$z <- log((g$x^g$g + g$y^2) * g$gr) wireframe(z ~ x * y, data = g, groups = gr, scales = list(arrows = FALSE), drape = TRUE, colorkey = TRUE, screen = list(z = 30, x = -60)) i have two wireframes in one plot. How could i change the color of the top - one to transparent (or only the grid).

Hello everybody, at work I want to start R within an VBA program. First I calculate something in Excel 2003. After that I want to start within my VBA makro R wich should start an R file, say i.g, superplot.R which plots me the data well. So is it possible? Maybe something like that: sub test() 'calculate something start R superplot.R end test() Thank you so much. Kindly

Hi everyone, I want to make use of the save function but it did not work. I'm using vista and R 2.5.0, winzip is installed too. Here's the code (from example ?save): > x <- runif(20) > y <- list(a = 1, b = TRUE, c = "oops") > save(x, y, file = "xy.Rdata") Fehler in gzfile(file, "wb") : kann Verbindung nicht ?ffnen Zus?tzlich:

Hello R-classicist won't like the following question due to there's no minimal reproducible example and the question was posted already. Anyway I'm not able understand this rather complicated version of "add points to wireframe". what I have is matrix 3x2000 with a dem<-(x,y,z, coordinates) (not provided). with follwing code I want to produce the wireframe and add some

Hi all, Does anyone have a comprehensive list of recursive-type objects in R? is.recursive defines them as by exclusion: "most types of objects are regarded as recursive, except for vector types, ?NULL? and symbols (as given by ?as.name?)." I think this that means recursive objects are: * lists * pairlists * calls * expressions Did I miss anything? Hadley -- Assistant
