similar to: adding a function after package.skeleton()

If an Rd file has only one keyword entry then the Splus sgm file made with Rdconv --type=SSgm has no keyword entries. To reproduce: Use prompt() to make a skeleton help file R> f<-function(x)log(1+x)-log1p(x) R> prompt(f) Created file named 'f.Rd'. Edit the file and move it to the appropriate directory. R> q() It has 2 \keyword entries in it

I am trying to debug a package to submit it to CRAN and am getting a bunch of error messages. Most of the errors are because of the Rd files which were automatically populated by the package.skeleton function. I find the section on documentation to be pretty confusion in the R Extensions manual. Any help on getting these errors fixed would be hugely appreciated. Thanks. --Markus * checking for

Dear list, I've had this problem for a while and I'm looking for a more general and robust technique than I've been able to imagine myself. I need to find N (typically N= 3 to 5) zeros in a function that is not a polynomial in a specified interval. The code below illustrates this, by creating a noisy curve with three peaks of different position, magnitude, width and

Hi, I have written a package that contains many s4 generic functions and associated methods. I am having a lot of trouble getting R to build the help pages for these generic functions without reporting, "missing link(s): ~~fun~~, which means that it cannot find the appropriate function when code in the example section of the help is run. Right? After some playing around I can get it to

I have a peculiar problem that I'm sure is a simple one, but I can't figure out what my mistake is. Can someone enlighten me? I have a simple file, class.R: ## setClass("abc",representation(a = "character", b = "ANY")) I have a package directory ExpressCGH1 made with package.skeleton. The package happily builds and installs, but R CMD check fails with

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Hi all, I wanted to set up my first (private) R-package and wondered if there was a function to prompt() for multiple aliases in one Rd-file, e.g. to create something like the normal distribution manual page encompassing rnorm, dnorm,... As I didn't find it, I modified prompt.default() and wrote a small function to do this job, called

I would like to propose adding a new plot function to the 'graphics' package. The new function is called areaplot() and I have implemented it as a generic function that supports a variety of data classes. An area plot consists of a simple line, like plot(x, y, type="l"), except the area between 0 and the line is a filled polygon. Areas can be stacked on top of each other,

There are usually two directories involved in an install: the source directory and the install directory in R_HOME/library. The INSTALL procedure builds the package (usually in place in Windows, I'm not sure if that's the case in Unix) and installs it into the install directory by copying those files necessary to use it. REMOVE removes the install directory, cleaning up

[cc'ing to R-devel] It's moderately obscure to me too, but ... There are two sets of bessel code in the package, one in C++ from Chris Bond and the other in FORTRAN from Netlib (I think). The FORTRAN code is the one that's giving trouble, you might try just removing the FORTRAN code from the src directory and trying again.

Hi it says in R-exts that A method must have all the arguments of the generic, including ... if the generic does. A method must have arguments in exactly the same order as the generic. A method should use the same defaults as the generic. So, how come the arguments for rep() are (x, times, ...) and the arguments for rep.default() are (x, times, length.out, each, ...) ?

I'm not too happy with this either, but I believe the reason is that there would be a significant extra maintenance burden consisting of things that is not being used by R itself. In particular, complex math routines are little used and have historically caused a number of issues with correct argument and return-value passing. Notice that it is a bit of a can of worms involving matching up C

While a parsed HTML version of the NEWS.md file would be nice, I would like something much simpler: being able to "see? this file in the Help pane in RStudio or being about to run something like show_news(?packagename?). Duncan mentioned issues with the news() function being able to process metadata represented in the Md file. What is the motivation of this structure? > On 24 May 2015,

Peter, Is there not already a significant maintenance burden from cherry-picking routines? From my own experience (https://bugs.r-project.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16482 <https://bugs.r-project.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16482>) this is a painful process. And while users may not call these complex routines directly, R is often used as a front-end for libraries that do, so

Hi, I''d like to be able to deploy a skeleton directory through puppet, i.e. puppet deploys it only if it does not exist. I tried this : file {"/path/to/this/directory": source => "puppet:///files/path/to/the/skeleton", ensure => directory, recurse => true, owner => auser, group => agroup } But I have 2 problems for the moment : - if I

Dear list, I have produced a fairly intricate plot arrangement for use in a publication using layout() and gridBase, and out of curiosity I'd like to learn whether a more elegant and robust solution could be obtained with grid to avoid the layout() function. > library(gridBase) > x <- seq(-pi, pi, length=10) > y <- cos(x) > > par(mar = c(0, 0, 0, 0), pty =

Hello R list, I have two matrices of identical dimensions, and I want to fit a straight line for each pair of columns and plot the resulting lines. I got it to work with a for loop, but there must be a better way, > n<-5 > N<-10 > > data.x<-matrix(1:(n*N),ncol=n) > data.y<-matrix(1:(n*N) + rnorm(n*N,sd=1),ncol=n) > >

Dear all, The following example code produces a graph with ggplot2, to which I add several vertical lines of arbitrary colors. I am not satisfied with the legend: it automatically adds some vertical lines which I'd rather not see (they confuse the reader rather than add information in this case). > library(ggplot2) > dfr <- data.frame(values = sin(1:50/10), > fact =

Dear list, I'm trying to get two lattice plots aligned on a page. They should share a common x axis, hence the need for perfect alignment, but the data is taken from unrelated, separate sources (it is therefore inappropriate to combine them and use facetting to get an automatic layout: the legend and y axis need to be different). I can get the panels to be of the same size, but
