Zoo - bug ???
Hi folks, I am confused whether the following is a bug or it is fine Here is the explanation a <- zoo(c(NA,1:9),1:10) Now If I do rollapply(a,FUN=mean,width=3,align="right") I get > rollapply(a,FUN=mean,width=3,align="right") 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA But I shouldn't be getting NA right ? i.e for index 10 I should get (1/3)*(9+8+7)

Date formats
Is the following expected behaviour for a date used in an ifelse function? > date <- Sys.Date() > date [1] "2007-12-30" > ifelse(TRUE, date-1, date) [1] 13876 > ifelse(FALSE, date-1, date) [1] 13877 > ifelse(TRUE, as.character(date-1), date) [1] "2007-12-29" > if (TRUE) {date} [1] "2007-12-30" It would seem more natural to me if a date produced

need for speed on grid.rect
When I use grid.rect to print a multi-coloured grid, it is incredibly slow compared to a single colour grid, or even a two colour grid. I've set out some simplified examples below. This is something I run literally thousands of times a day, so I would greatly appreciate any hints on how I might improve the speed??? library(grid) pushViewport(viewport( width = unit(100,

Patch: fix segfault from empty raster
Hi, A colleague recently came across an R crash, which I can boil down to the following, running under Rgui on Windows 7: library(ggplot2) ggplot(data.frame(x=1, y=1, z=4.7), aes(x, y, z=z)) + stat_summary2d() This reliably causes a segmentation fault. sessionInfo() below. What's happening is that (for reasons which I'll discuss with the ggplot2 developers) the 'colorbar'

cpu usage high with windows change dir / winDialogString (PR#11045)
Good afternoon, This is possibly a windows only bug, definitely of comparatively low importance - but for the sake of completeness here we go. I've searched http://bugs.R-project.org/ etc., but can find no mention. For RGui.exe, the CPU usage goes to 100% for certain dialog boxes for the duration that the dialog box is visible, e.g. * check CPU usage is low * On the RGui.exe menu chose

apply function across two variables by mult factors
Greetings, I am attempting to run a function, which produces a vector and requires two input variables, across two nested factor levels. I can do this using by(X, list(factor1, factor2), function), however I haven't found a simple way to extract the list output into an organized vector form. I can do this using nested loops but it isn't exactly an optimal approach. Thank you

GAM model to reduce PACF of a model
I have asked this question on Stackoverflow and was told it does not relate to the sites' mission as it is statistical question, thus I brought it here. I am fitting a gam mode in the mgcv package to study associations of environmental pollutants and mortality. The aim is to choose a model with lowest mgcv and also to reduce the PACF to less than < |0.1|. library(gamair) library(mgcv)

SQLDF - Submitting Queries with R Objects as Columns
Fellow R programmers, I'd like to submit SQLDF statements with R objects as column names. For example, I want to assign "X" to "var1" (var1<-"X") and then refer to "var1" in the SQLDF statement. SQLDF needs to understand that when I reference "var1", it should look for "X" in the dataframe. This is necessary because my SQLDF

Difficulties with dataframe filter using elements from an array created using a for loop or seq()
Hi All- This seems like such a pathetic problem to be posting about, but I have no idea why this testcase does not work. I have tried this using R 2.4.1, 2.4.0, 2.3.0, and 2.0.0 on several different computers (Mac OS 10.4.8, Windows XP, Linux). Below the signature, you will find my test case R code. My point in this folly is to take a dataframe of 300,000 rows, create a filter based on two

Retrieving Factors with Levels Ordered
Hello (and Happy New Year), When I create a factor with labels in the order I want, write the data as a text file, and then retrieve them, the factor levels are no longer in the proper order. Here is what I do (I tried many variations): # educ is a numeric vector with 1,001 observations. # There is one NA # Use educ to create a factor feducord <- factor(educ, labels = c('Elem',

Different labels by panel in barchart
Dear all, I'm analysing a survey, and creating a barchart of the different responses for each question. The questions are grouped according to a number of categories, so I'm using lattice to create a plot with each question in a category on it. The problem is that the response set for different questions within the same category varies. I want to be able to draw only the relevant
