similar to: apropos and find

Hello all, I've had the following apropos alternative in my ~/.Rprofile for some time, and have found it more useful than the current version. Basically, my version ignores case when searching. If others find this useful, perhaps apropos could be suitably patched (and I'd be willing to create such a patch). + seth Here is my version of apropos: APROPOS <- function (what, where =

Hello, I am reasoning about a question concerning the t-test for one sample. My data includes 150 values (mean 10.07) which I want to compare to mu=9. A tow-sided t-test yields > t.test(data,mu=9) One Sample t-test data: data t = 3.0099, df = 149, p-value = 0.00307 alternative hypothesis: true mean is not equal to 9 95 percent confidence interval: 9.368676 10.777991 sample estimates:

The old apropos started with: if (!is.character(what)) what <- as.character(substitute(what)) The new one has: if (character.only) stopifnot(is.character(what)) else what <- as.character(substitute(what)) i.e., the check for is.character(what) is missing. This has the effect that 'what' can no longer be a character string generated by a function call

A further improvement to apropos() would be to sort the output. Currently, the output of apropos is in the order found on the search list and this will rarely be useful to the user. All that is needed is a sort(x) at the end of the function. + seth -- Seth Falcon | Computational Biology | Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center http://bioconductor.org

Hello, I guess a have a very simple problem though up to now couldn't solve it: I want to plot two datasets wihtin one plot like plot(x) provides it for one dataset(type="b" that is: points connected by lines). Example data 'x': Befragung1 Befragung2 Befragung3 Geschlecht 2.25 2.34 1.78 weiblich 1.34 3.45 2.23 maennlich The two rows of the example above

Martin and I have `written' a function apropos() for finding all objects with names matching pattern. I attach code and documentation. Perhaps one could include it in the distribution proper. We are not sure about returning the position in the search list along with the matching names found. Martin thinks it should be on by default, I think it should be off so that the functions does the

Some time ago I tried to find out how to compute remainders in R. I now know that it is done with %%, which is documented in help('+'), but before someone told me that I tried: help('remainder'), help.search('remainder'), apropos('remainder') help('modulo'), help.search('modulo'), and apropos('modulo') all of which yielded nothing. I then

The situation is that I know there is a function and know approximately what the name is, and want to find the exact name. Is there a way of searching for near-matches (similar to unix apropos). For example, I know there is a function called something like allequal (or allequals or AllEquals or...). But ?allequal, etc, return nothing, only if I remember the name can I get help via ?all.equal.

Dear list, Is there any functionality in R that would allow me to parse config files? I have trie ??config and apropos('config') without succes, and also search the R package site. Mvh. Marie [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

For anybody who uses ESS with R, how do you invoke the vsize and nsize options when you call R. I can't find any appropriate variables from an apropos.
