similar to: Problem building/checking library that requires input fro m user

Hi all, I've got a package i've written that i am trying to check, build, and install. This is my 1st time doing this, so apologies in advance... ;) The package that I've written requires input from the user. It needs to know sample sizes and then runs some calcs, (sample sizes are just integers), and it gets this info from the user as num_reps <- readline("How many reps

Dear list, When I run an R CMD check --as-cran on my package (pROC) I get the following note: > Uses the superseded package: ?doSNOW? The fact that it uses the doSNOW package is correct as I have the following example in an .Rd file: > #ifdef windows > if (require(doSNOW)) { > registerDoSNOW(cl <- makeCluster(2, type = "SOCK")) > ci(roc2,

The CRAN package snow is superseded by the parallel package which is distributed with R since version 2.14.0. Here are the release notes \item There is a new package \pkg{parallel}. It incorporates (slightly revised) copies of packages \CRANpkg{multicore} and \CRANpkg{snow} (excluding MPI, PVM and NWS clusters). Code written to use the higher-level API functions in those packages should

Oh, I completely missed that one. It's very neat as it seems to work both on Windows and Unix. Thanks!

Hi all, I've got a matrix of fractional data that is all positive and greater than zero that I would like to "loosely" classify, for lack of a better word. It looks something like this : 1.07 1.11 1.27 1.59 0.97 0.76 2.23 0.98 0.71 0.88 1.19 1.02 What I'm looking for is a way to round these numbers to the nearest 0.25, i.e. the above matrix would be

Dear R experts, I have a large database made up of mixed data types (numeric, character, factor, ordinal factor) with missing values, and I am looking for a package that would help me impute the missing values using ?either the mean if numerical or the mode if character/factor. I maybe could use replace like this: df$var[is.na(df$var)] <- mean(df$var, na.rm = TRUE) And go through all the many

I am installed CENTOS 5.5 on X86. After finish, I tried to apply latest patches. Rpm patch manager say need "dependency" "tzdata-java-20101-1.e15". I search CENTOS 5.5 CD and can NOT find this file. I also search Internet and no result. Can anyone tell me where to download "tzdata-java-20101-1.e15" RPM? Thanks.

I tried to install Google Chrome and received the dependencies error. Is Centos too old for the new Chrome or is there an older Chrome version that is compatible? Todd -- Ariste Software Petaluma, CA 94952 http://www.aristesoftware.com

Hi, Paul: "if(!fda::CRAN())" runs code except with "R CMD check ?as-cran". I use it so CRAN checks skip examples that (a) need the Internet or (b) take too long for CRAN. Hope this helps.

Is there a good strategy for testing examples which should not be run by default? For instance, I have examples which get data from the Internet. If I wrap them in try() then they can be skipped if the Internet is not available, but may not be tested in cases when I would like to know about the failure. (Not to mention that the example syntax is ugly.) If I mark them \dontrun or \donttest

Hi again; I have placed many examples in the CTFS Rd pages because my audience really really likes lots of examples in order to understand the options available in a functions. At this time I have set them all to \dontrun{}. however, this isn't because the example command line with its function and options won't work, but rather that CTFS specific datasets must exist to have the

Dear list, I have just started to use roxygen and cannot find out how to specify NOT RUN examples. I know that to include R code examples works via the @examples tag followed by the code. Without roxygen, if I want R code not to be run when processing the .Rd files I would include the \dontrun tag \examples{\dontrun{ ... some example R code} } How can I achieve this using roxygen? Thanks Mark

You've answered my question 2 about why the manual was in odd order > R CMD check was more of a check of the latex version of the files, not > the final manual. I was looking at the result of R CMD check, and it was in random order (perhaps file date?), not just a different collation choice. Very odd. I will cease worrying about what I might have "done wrong". I omitted the

Hi, source(file,echo=T) will not echo the last comment in "file" if it is the last line in the file. For instance, when sourcing a file containing the following lines #comment 1 a<-1 #comment 2 R will echo > #comment 1 > a<-1 What is the solution to have R echo all of the comment lines? Specific context: This problem arises e.g. in the context of help files (.Rd) whose

Hi all, I've got a script that generates a few moderate-size data frames, and then puts them together into one big data frame at the end in order to write that data frame to disk, so that it may be re-opened later on... I'm trying to trim down memory requirements in this script, so I was wondering if there was any way to append to a data frame already saved on disk (just like

1. I often like to put bits of the output into the manual pages. (We can have a discussion of the value of this elsewhere -- I think it is sometimes a good thing.) In R I need to surround these with \dontrun{} for the sake of the tester, which is fine. But the printed output contains ## Not run and ## End (not run) comments, which defeats the purpose of the lines by breaking them

I have a couple of packages (?fiery? and ?reqres') that uses a mock of a rook request for their examples. The mock is an R6 object containing a rawConnection, along with a finalizer that closes this connection when the object is removed. So far so good. I?ve recently been getting CRAN errors due to the rawConnection not being closed in examples > cleanEx() Error: connections left open:

[Automatic forwarding from R-bugs failed. This message has been manually forwarded.] Hi all! I'm trying to add Thomas Lumley's defmacro() function Lumley T.

Hi all, What I'd like to do is to is to be able to extract a string corresponding to only the file name from a string containing the complete path, i.e. from the following path string: "/Users/ken/Desktop/test/runs/file1" I would like to end up with: "file1" This would be most ideally done in a platform-independent way.
