Hello. I'm not a regular subscriber in this mailing list, but I think that this announce may interest somebody. Please, forgive me if this is the wrong place. Based on the code of RSPython, but modifying it a little, I wrote an interface for using R from Python. The main reason for writing it was to make it robust, in order to avoid segmentation faults. Also, it is (IMMO) a very

A question for a (experienced) user of the RPython package on linux. I'm trying to call R from python on a linux (Suse 7.3) box. After installing R CMD INSTALL -c RSPython_0.5-2.tar.gz I start python and do: >>> import sys >>> sys.path.append('/usr/local/lib/R/library/RSPython') >>> sys.path.append('/usr/local/lib/R/library/RSPython/Python')

I am trying to install Rpy to test it out as an R interface for a project that I am working on. However, I get the following error. Any clues as to what might be going on? I have alo tried RSPython, but I gave up due to errors. RSPython segfaults when started from R and gives an error message I can;t remember from python. Thanks, Brett >>> import rpy Traceback (most recent call

Dear list, Rpy is a python module that provides python interface to R. The following simple commands >>> from rpy import * >>> r.plot(0) is supposed to create a window that displays the result of plot(0). However, we observe that 1. Under *nix, rpy+R+python work as expected 2. Under windows, python + pythonWin32 (a python GUI provided by the pywin32 module), work as expected

Hello, My platform is SuSE 8.1. After downloading and unpacking R version 1.7 I tried building with shared libs enabled. (./configure --enabl-R-shlib). My goal is to use RSPython but I am now in my own private segmentation fault hell. The R build worked fine: make, make check, make install cool. The RSPython build worked fine. Thinking I'm good to go, I run python. But when I import RS

Hi, I'm planning to write some code in Python using R functions. I'm aware of the two R<->Python packages - Rpy and RSPython. Rpy seems easier to get up and running with, but does anybody have any comments regarding which would be a better system to work with in the long run?

Hi all, I need the power of R from within some of my Python programs... I use debian linux (woody) at home and windows XP at work (the latter is where I need to get things done!) This are my packages: R 1.8.0 Python 2.3 RSPython 0.5-3 This is what I've done: (1) Since the Windows Binary of RSPython is compiled against Python 2.2 I downloaded the tarball (2) Followed the instructions in

Hello, I don't know if this question ought to go here, or rather on R-devel, so please bear with me. I'm interfacing to R via RPy (rpy.sf.net) and an embedded Python interpreter. This is really quite convenient. I use this approach to calculate the correlation coefficient of 1 independent dataset (vector) with 4 dependent vectors. It'd be nice if that could be done in 4 parallel

I develop quite a bit of R code that I tend to distribute, or let other people embed in their software. One of the things I'd really like to do is find a way to load an R library I've developed, and call one function with arguments. Currently, I achieve that by building a separate R client file, which reads in the command line arguments, loads the library, and calls the main

How can I parse a YAML file in R 2.6.0 in Windows? I cannot get the RYaml package to compile in Windows, I can't find a MinGW compiled .dll for an existing YAML parser like syck (which would appear to be the best hope for creating my own R wrapper functions), and I don't know how to call a Ruby or Python function from R (so that I could parse the file in Ruby or Python and pass the parsed

Under RSPython and rpy, the regexec C function is returning nonsensical results leading to segmentation faults. This is happening in some situations under R 1.4.1 and (more often?) under R 1.5.0 on my Solaris 8 box. R 1.4.1 was compiled with gcc 2.95.2, and I've tried 1.5.0 with both gcc 2.95.2 and gcc 3.0.3. The error appears to be exactly the same under both python tools and both

All- Thanks in advance for your help. I'm trying to call R function using Python in a windows environment and have downloaded the Rpy library however it doesn't appear to work with R 2.7.2. Does anyone know if a new version of Rpy exists for windows that will work with R and where it can be downloaded from? Here's an example of the error I'm getting:

Hi CRAN people, There is an issue with python-rpy on Ubuntu, when installed from the CRAN repository. (I read the info on http://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/ and saw the note that this package is experimental but you are happy to receive feedback on it.) After adding the appropriate CRAN repo: % sudo apt-get install python-rpy [ ... installs various dependencies ... ] % echo import rpy |

Hi, I'm trying to install RSPython v0.5-4 on a debian machine (woody, testing) but am having the following problem. $R CMD INSTALL -c --library=/usr/lib/R/library RSPython_0.5-4.tar.gz 2>err But then... $python >> import RS Error in .PythonInit() : Error in Python call: values Error in library("RSPython") : .First.lib failed for 'RSPython' Traceback (most recent

I can compile RSPython without difficulty, been when I try to load it, I get the error messages below. Also below are some cryptic warnings I get on R boot (in case these are pertinent) and my sessionInfo(). Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Mark Warning messages: 1: In .updateMethodsInTable(fdef, where, attach) : Couldn't find methods table for "conditional", package

I've used R for a couple of years on FreeBSD with few problems. Recently, a couple of the contributed packages seem to have difficulty finding symbols in the shared libraries. Currently, I'm running R 1.3.1 on FreeBSD 4.4. I've tried setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH to /usr/local/lib and some other things. The packages I've had trouble with are: Matrix 0.3.15 RODBC 0.8.3 RSPython 0.3
