I have been running R CMD check for the first time on of our own packages, which otherwise builds, installs and runs just fine. The package depends on package akima and suggests package multtest; suggesting multtest is indicated because a) it loads a lot of other Bioconductor packages, very slowly, and b) it is only needed for one specific subroutine, which executes require(multtest)

Dear all, we have installed R in one of our computer labs. Running demo(grpahics) works, kindof, in that it produces all the usual plots without crashing, but the plots are incomplete: no color wheel, no pie chart, no boxplots, just some labelling, titles, and in rare cases, axes. We have tried this with both 1.7 and 1.6.2, with the same results. The computers are running Windows 2000, with

i was searching for the source of bca.ci, a function of the package boot. I tried require(boot, keep.source=TRUE) but again the source was not viewable. How should i do?

I'm using R 1.3.1 on a Windows NT 4.0 machine. As you might guess my machine crashes on me from time to time :-| So far, forcing a reboot via the Taskmanager has worked reasonably well: any open R session would enquire politely whether to save, and do so if requested. This time, it has not worked out. I get a 'Fatal Error: unable to restore saved data in .RData' message and R

Hello! Maybe "frame" is not the right term in this context. I explain my problem by example code: fun2 <- function(objName, add) { ## the object "objName" should be increased by "add", ## but the evaluation should be done in the calling function (here: fun1) ## ...... what's the right code?? } fun1 <- function() { x <- 1 fun2("x",

Hi Daniel, I want to clarify that our analysis is not based on CFL-reachability. We apply CFL-reachability to matching context information where the exist from a function to a call-site must match the entry from the corresponding call-site. The problem is a simple balanced parentheses problem in CFL-reachability, and it can be computed efficiently. The paper you mentioned is a very nice paper

Hi R user! What is the fastest way to export a large matrix or vector to a MySQL database? The use of data.frame() and dbWriteTable() makes the process slow, so is there any <direct> alternative? Regards Meinhard Ploner

I KNOW this should be easy, but I'm stuck. My data frame consists of multiple observations from each of a number of stations, and what I would like to do is create another data frame that contains all the variables of the first, but only rows where a certain variable is at its maximum for the station. So, for example: > my.df stn obs v 1 1 1 0.26400396 2 2 1

I am new on R, so I have a maybe naive question: if I have many large data.frames and I use only one or two per session, what's the best way? If all are stored in the actual .Rdata, the system gets slow. On the other hand, I wouldn't like to make a separate package for the data. Should I save it with save() and then remove it with rm() ? Could I reload it then? Thanks for suggestions

I've finally made the switch to CentOS 5.1 (I had been running 4.6). So far, so good, but I do have a few issues. First, I can not find kermit (or ckermit) in any of the repos (base, extras, centosplus, rpmforge). On my 4.6 systems, /usr/bin/kermit was provided by the package ckermit in the base repo. That package appears to be no longer available. Any ideas where I could find a

Hi all, I have Win XP and R 2.3.1 on my notebook. I would like to write a package which includes some Fortran 95 code. Interestingly, if I compile and link the simple file test90.f90 directly with g95 -c test90.f90 g95 -shared -o test90.dll test90.o then PE Viewer ( a dll viewer) shows me the right functions in the export table, hence I can use the dll in R. But as it should become part of a

Yes, sorry, I pulled the wrong quote, it was late.

It's possible to overlap an external image (jpg or pdf) with a plot generated with R? Specifying the image as the background of the plot might not be possible... any idea? thanks Meinhard Ploner

Hello, I''m working on a project and trying to pass through a PS/2 mouse + keyboard to a hardware VM. I''ve played with numerous things (including the obvious, using USB), but after finding no alternative, it seems like the best way to approach this would be to modify qemu-dm to pipe through data from /dev/input/eventwhatever to the keyboard/mouse that qemu provides (and then

hi! I tried to build a very simple package with NAMESPACE file, such that datasets are loaded only dynamically. > a2 <- function(x=a1) x+4 > a1 <- 1:10 > package.skeleton("aaa", list=c("a1", "a2")) Then I modified the help files and added the file NAMESPACE with these 2 lines: useDynLib(aaa) export(a1, a2) Then "R CMD BUILD aaa" works

Hi all, I've been having some trouble with times in regards to daylight savings in R version 2.8.1. I have an ORACLE database that R is importing data in from, for the 2am and 2:30am time intervals for the dates that daylight savings starts the times are getting read as NA values into R. I'm also finding that if I open a R workspace from version 6.2.2,the datetimes are

Hey I want to start the next Newsletter early so it can be a little more relaxed. The next release will be the 1. April. I really need someone to *interview*, just drop me a mail and I will send you a few questions. This can be anyone from the community that has some sort of CentOS install. And then I want to introduce a new section called DeskShot where users can show off their workplaces.

Dear R-Team, Am I right supposing that the "breakpoints()" function in the strucchange package is an implementation of the pure structural change model proposed by Bai and Perron (1997, 2003)? My question relates to a partial structural change model that Bai and Perron formulate in their 2003 paper, e.g. formulated as y = x' beta + z' delta_j + epsilon, where beta and delta

Hi! I have R 1.9.1, Mac OS X 10.3.5, GNU Emacs 21.2.1 and ESS 5.2.3. I installed today the ESS by not changing ess-site.el, but creating .emacs in $home with the single line: $ cat ~/.emacs (load "/usr/local/lib/ess-5.2.3/lisp/ess-site") If I start now emacs and then R (with M-x R) then I get: > options(STERM='iESS', editor='emacsclient') but using fix() oder

Hello all, I don't know if it is possible, but I would like to use do.call in C code in my package. The function do.call is defined as > do.call function (what, args, quote = FALSE, envir = parent.frame()) { if (!is.list(args)) stop("second argument must be a list") if (quote) { enquote <- function(x) as.call(list(as.name("quote"),
