Anyone know what's up w/ tolstoi.newcast.edu.au (home of the threaded R-help archives)? I've got a "can't connect" for several days now. Carl

Dear R users, I have multi-argument returns in a function and I am warned by the program they are deprecated. I have found this in the R-help archives : http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/01c/0319.html http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/01c/0356.html Since I am not too good at programming, the list solution seems the better one for me. It is also the one advocated by Kevin Murphy. So

Hi list,I apologize if you see funny fonts, b/c I'm using the new Windows Live Hotmail and don't know how to turn off the "rich text" mode.....I have successfully built and installed a R package in windowsXP for R-2.5.1. But when I tried to create a .zip file so I can use "Packages/install package(s) from local .zip files..." to install it, it seems R only recognizes

Hi, I'm thankful for any help on installing RMySQL on Windows XP for R 1.9.1 The thread http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/04/01/1021.html already tried to discuss the matter. It concludes that Windows Sources for Packages are alike the Linux ones. So I extracted the files from the RMySQL_*.tar.gz from http://stat.bell-labs.com/RS-DBI/download/index.html and stuffed them into a zip-file

I have an S-Plus library that I would like to port to R. The library sends a mix of static and dynamic output to an html file. For example cat(" ... Big block of HTML formatting code ... ") cat(dat()) cat(" More static text ") With S-Plus I can just cut and paste HTML code from other files into my S-Plus script file. This makes maintenance of the script fairly easy. The

Hello all I've been using the hclust and as.dendrogram objects for hierarchical clustering. The problem I have is that my sample set is now so large (circa 500 points) that it isn't possible to view the leaf nodes. I'd like to be able to zoom in on specific areas of the graph by selecting a region with the mouse. I've deduced from trial and error that the xlim and ylim

Hello I'm trying to calculate 2d confindence bounds into a scatterplot using the function "kde2d" (package MASS) and a contour plot.

Dear R-users, I have found this not-so-recent post in the archives - http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/devel/00a/0291.html - while I was looking for a particular way to reorder factor levels. The question addressed by the author was to know if the read.table function could be modified to order the levels of newly created factors "according to the order that they appear in the data

Greetings R-ians: Searching the Searchable Mail Archives I discovered that ctrl L will clear the Rgui screen, which is what I'd like to do from a print (or some similar) statement. Is there a mechanism to use the ctrl L clear-screen sequence in a script, or print statement? Thanks for your counsel. Charles Annis, P.E.

R 1.9.1 requires multi-line strings to contain a backslash at the end of each line (except the last line). As noted by Mark Bravington (http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/02b/5199.html) this requirement appears to be undocumented. In S-Plus 6.2, multi-line strings do not need a backslash for continuation. I recently (http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/devel/04b/0256.html) requested

Hello! I have just read mails in thread <http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/devel/04a/0583.html> about problems with Cygwin and Rtools. I had the same problems and kept just the newest cygwin1.dll and things seem OK now. However I currently hit the problem with Perl (I have ActiveState and Cygwin Perl installed). When I tried to work with 'Rdconv' in Cygwin I get the following: $

Hi, First, let me thank Jaroslaw for making this survey. I find it quite illuminating. Now the questions: * the #1 solution below (based on cumsum) is numerically unstable. Specifically if you do the runmean on a positive vector you can easily get negative numbers due to rounding errors. Does anyone see a modification which is free of this deficiency? * is it possible to optimize the

When I use the scan function in the Rgui console it works as expected. However it seems that when I put the same command in a script file it doesn't wait for input. Is there an option to scan to make it wait for input when used in a script? Or is there possibly a different function that will do in a script the same sort of thing as scan does in the console? Thanks, Mark

Hi all, Just thought I'd share something I discovered last night. I was interested in creating animations consisting of a series of plots and after finding very little in the usual sources regarding animation in R directly, and disliking the imagemagick method described here (http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/05/10/13297.html), I discovered that if one exports the plots to a

Dear all, I created a bivariate normal distribution: set.seed(138813) n<-100 x<-rnorm(n); y<-rnorm(n) and plotted a scatterplot of it: plot(x,y) Now I'd like to add the 2D-standard deviation. I found a thread regarding plotting arbitrary confidence boundaries from Pascal H?nggi http://www.mail-archive.com/r-help at r-project.org/msg24013.html which cites the even older thread

Hi. There was an interesting thread about a year ago, called 'Command equivalent of rgui "File, Save to File"?' (http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/e2/help/06/09/0553.html) started by Michael Prager, and contributed to by Duncan Murdoch (I didn't notice anything beyond the four entries they posted). The question was how to replicate programmatically the "Save to

Hi, Is there any way to pass an integer from R to C and have it cast as a pointer? # Win32 Example: library(tcltk) tt <- tktoplevel() hWndString <- tclvalue(tkwm.frame(tt)) # I'll avoid posting code to this function: source("http://bioinf.wehi.edu.au/folders/james/R/hexStringToDecimalInteger.R") hWnd <- hexStringToDecimalInteger(hWndString) system32 <-

Just out of curiosity, what is the difference between the terms for package and library ? Why are we loading a package with the library() command ? If this is a case of RTFM, I would be happy to do so if pointed in the right direction. I have searched the FAQ and mail archives and only came up with http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/05/02/12162.html but this still does not explain what is
