similar to: lapply vs. for (was: Incrementing a counter in lapply)

Hi All, I'm looking for some hints on idiomatic R usage using 'lapply' or similar. What follows is a simple example from which to generalize my question... # Suppose, in this simple example, I want to plot a number of different lines in different colors; # I define the colors I wish to use and I plot them in a loop: d<-

Hello! Does R core find the following pacth usefull - I created methods for levels for list and data.frame, which can be usefull to get a list of levels for entries in a list or columns in a data.frame. Patch is attached and shown bellow example # Example > tmp <- list() > tmp$a <- factor(letters[1:10]) > tmp$b <- factor(letters[5:14]) > tmp$c <- 1:10 > tmp1 <-

Hello to Rusers! I am puzzled with R and I really do not know where to look in for my problem. I am moving from SAS and I have difficulties in translating SAS to R world. I hope I will get some hints or pointers so I can study from there on. I would like to do something like this. In SAS I can write a macro as example bellow, which is afcourse a silly one but shows what I don't know how

Hello! I am crossposting this to R-help and BioC, since it is relevant to both groups. I wrote a wrapper for Entrez search utility (link for this is provided bellow), which can add some new search functionality to existing code in Bioconductor's package 'annotate'*. http://eutils.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query/static/esearch_help.html Entrez search utuility returns a XML document

Hello! I have noticed that mapply() drops names in R 2.3.1 as well as in r-devel. Here is a simple example: l <- list(a=1, b=2) k <- list(1) mapply(FUN="+", l, k) [1] 2 3 mapply(FUN="+", l, k, SIMPLIFY=FALSE) [[1]] [1] 2 [[2]] [1] 3 Help page does not indicate that this should happen. Argument USE.NAMES does not have any effect here as it used only in a bit special

Hello! I have a continous distribution and would like to get mode (the most frequent value in distribution). I easily found mean, median and other basic thing but not mode function. Can anyone help? I know there my might be problems with multiple modes, but still I think that there should be a mode function in R. Please send mail to R-help list and me, so I can get response faster. Thank

Hello! Is it possible to set na.rm=TRUE in a global way? I'am constantly forgeting on this when performing analyses.

Hello! Has anyone successfully compiled F90 sources in R-package? I found the same question on r-devel list from 2002 and I wonder if there is any progress. I heard that g95 and gfortran can be usable. And one more thing. I have a program written in F90 and lets suppose that compiler is not a problem. I've read manual 'Writing R Extensions' and successfully loaded one F77 subroutine

Hello! Can someone provide me an estimate or relevant source of information on how long is command winepath available or from wich version of wine? I would need this as I work on some R[1] package R2WinBUGS[2] that calls a Windows program WinBUGS[3] and that program needs windows paths. Currently winepath or parsing of .wine/config is used and I wonder if I can remove fiddling with .wine/.config.

Hello! I would like to use constrain to sum coeficients of a factor to 0 instead of classical corner contraint i.e. I would like to fit a model like lm(y ~ 1 + effectA + effectB) and say get parameters intercept effectA_1 effectA_2 effectB_1 effectB_2 effectB_3 where effectA_1 represents deviation of level A_1 from intercept and sum(effectA_1, effectA_2) = 0 and the same for factor B.

Hello! I am producing a set of images and I would like them to be sorted by names I give. I was able to produce my names and add integer to them. That is easy. But my problem lies in sort of file from this process: figure_10.png figure_11.png figure_12.png ... figure_1.png figure_20.png ... So I would like to convert integers to something like 01 if upper limit for this conert is 10 or 001

Hello! I have a wish/proposal. Is it possible to include some option in install.packages() for Delete downloaded files (y/N)? at the end of that process.

Hello! New version of R has came out and I would like to thank to all developers on this matter. So I should probably upgrade. Fine and no problem. For windows I just grab the latest precompiled binnaries and install them. Then I see a report on a bug, which is or will be fixed in pacthed version. So I need to get binnaries from patched build and install them, right? How often do you people
