Dear R-developers, the following may seem a weird question for R-devel – I try anyway, because it does seem to be related to usage of R and R's way of interacting with the hardware. When running R (2.4.0) on my new dual core Windows XP system (Intel Core 2 Duo E6600, Mainboard ASUS P5B, BeQuiet Power Unit), I observe various types of sounds (not related to fans) when running at full

Dear expeRts, I am trying to wrap up a package "utilities" (for my internal use). After adding a function datNAtreat that uses mapply, R CMD check gives WARNINGs for "S3 generic/method consistency", "checking replacement functions" and?"checking foreign function calls", all of which are accompanied by the following error message: Error in .try_quietly

Dear all, I am stuck with tracking down an error I get from R CMD check (Windows, R 2.4.0, same error for R 2.2.1): when running R CMD check over a modified version of package relaimpo, I get the following output in install.out: preparing package relaimpo for lazy loading Loading required package: MASS Loading required package: boot Error in parse(file, n, text, prompt) : syntax error at 2193:

Dear developeRs, with R 2.4.1 (and also 2.4.0), the function str() fails on objects of class relimplmbooteval, if there are unused slots, which is very often the case. I am not sure whether this is a bug in str() or a correct behavior of str() that unmasks some sloppiness in my usage of S4 classes (that I am not aware of)? Reproducible example (package relaimpo needed): The program

Hello all, In one of the packages (phylobase) I'm contributing to, we define a class as follows: setClass("phylo4", representation(edge = "matrix", edge.length = "numeric", label = "character", edge.label = "character", order =

Hello, Can anyone explain me what is wrong in the following code? and in particular why it is not possible to change the class of an object thanks to the function with(). Does an alternative exist? xxx <- data.frame(x = c("a","b","c","d","e"), y = c("1","2","3","4","5")) str(xxx) with(xxx, {

Dear R-helpers, I have a question regarding LU-decomposition with function lu in package Matrix. The following simple example confuses me: Why is as.matrix(elu$U) not an upper triangular matrix? u3 <- matrix(c(1,1,1,1,1,1,-1,1,0,0,0,0,0,-1,1,0,0,0,-1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,-1,1,0,0),5,6,byrow=T) elu <- expand(lu(Matrix(u3,sparse=F))) as.matrix(elu$U) I only have very limited experience with the

Hello. I want to create a list of vectors but each component of the list has a different length. For example: Example=list() Example=list(Example,c(1,2,3)) Example=list(Example,c(11,12,13,14,15)) If I want the first component of the Example list, I have to write: Example[[1]][[2]]. R responses 1 2 3 The second component: Example[[2]]: 11 12 13 14 15 If I iterate the previous example,

Dear R-developers, I'm experiencing a problem with having an example run under R 2.6.1 RC (downloaded and installed today, r43513), which does not occur on R 2.6.0: The new version of package relaimpo does list package survey under "Depends", and an example directly (i.e. not only from within a function of relaimpo) uses function svydesign from package survey. Package survey is

Hei Group, I want to compare the relative importance of predictors in a multiple linear regression y~a+bx1+cx2... However, bptest indicates heteroskedasticity of my model. I therefore perform a robust regression (rlm), in combination with bootstrapping (as outlined in J. Fox, Bootstrapping Regression Models). Now I want to compare the relative importance of my predictors. Can I rely on the

Dear R experts, I have defined a class "myclass" and would like the slots to be extractable not only by "@" but also by "$". I now try to write a method for "$" that simply executes the request object at slotname, whenever someone calls object$slotname for any object of class "myclass". I don't manage to find out how I can provide this

Hi, I have an nxp data set of time series. For my final year project, I would like to partition this data set into a smaller number of units ( < n). Where each of the units contains time series that move closely together (i.e. in unison), and the "simmilarity" (in terms of occurence & amplitudes of peaks and troughs) between the segregated units is "low". I know

Dear userRs, Version 2.0 of package relaimpo is on CRAN (and on my homepage with an additional metric for non-US users). It contains several major improvements: - usage of factors - incorporation of interactions (for metric lmg only) - incorporation of observation weights - application to data from complex surveys - processing of multiply imputed data The latter two points are somewhat

I'm having trouble getting the relaimpo package to use a covariance matrix as input. I'm getting an error message that reads as follows: Error in eval(m$weights, data, parent.frame()) : numeric 'envir' arg not of length one I'm guessing there is something wrong with the structure of my covariance matrix, but it looks fine to me. Pardon my R ignorance if this is an easy
