hallo, i have a problem reading in the above mentioned kind of a file. does anybody know an easy way how to read it in? i can save it as a text file that looks like: Datum des Fixings Restlaufzeit 1 Jahr 2 Jahre 3 Jahre 4 Jahre 5 Jahre 6 Jahre 7 Jahre 8 Jahre 9 Jahre 10 Jahre 12 Jahre 15 Jahre 13.01.06 2.819 2.983 3.073 3.137 3.194 3.247 3.302 3.355 3.409 3.459 3.548 3.649 12.01.06 2.847

dear list, i have a problem using the par function. in one graphic device i want to have two plots so i tried to use par(mfror=c(1,2)). of course it worked out, but the height now is twice the length of the width for each single plot. what i actually wanted is something like par(mfrow=c(2,2)) where only the top (or bottom) two plots are drawn with entire length proportions of 1 to 2 ( height 1,

Thanks I think you have both answered my question (reckon Ill go S3 on that). As an adjunct to this do you know what might be the best reference to the S4 methods current implementation. I have ordered the Chambers book "Programming with Data", and I have a short tutorial-- "S4 Classes in 15 pages, more or less". Have I missed any other useful resources? Stephen Henderson

Hi, I am not sure if this is a bug or a non-implement feature of text-drawing functions with TeX-style expression, but hat() and some of its equals does not get the right "bounding boxes" if they are put in sub- or superscripts. For instance, for the expression 'b[hat(a)]' the hat() seems to shift 'hat(a)' too much to the right of 'b'. Try the below example and

Hello, I wonder if it is unwise to name a bundle the same as one of its packages. For instance, I now have a huge package called 'aroma' that I basically want to split up in several smaller packages, say 'aroma.core', 'aroma.io', 'aroma.explore', 'aroma.trial', 'aroma.deprecated' etc, which simplifies maintenance but also the overview. For

dear list, i have a problem plotting revenue against the date. the str. of date looks like: Class 'Date' num [1:10493] -3649 -3648 -3647 -3646 -3643 ... the head looks like: [1] "1960-01-05" "1960-01-06" "1960-01-07" "1960-01-08" "1960-01-11" [6] "1960-01-12" i´d like to plot it against the years, but can´t figure out how

I would like to have some function for getting an overview of the variables in a worksheet. Class, dimesions, length, number of missing values,... Guess it wouldn't be that hard to set up such a function, but I guess there are others who have made it already. Or is it already a standard feature in the base package? Any suggestions? Robert

Is there any possibility to divide too long text in a plot to two or more lines, when using labels-parameter in the text()-command? Here is an example picture: http://users.utu.fi/attenka/253.jpeg My example script is something like this: text(1,0.7,labels=Chordnames[fnid(pcs%%12)]) # according to Larry Solomon's table http://solomonsmusic.net/pcsets.htm Chordnames is a long vector with

Daer All, I have a factor variable, X with 5 levels. When I type tables(X) it gives me: table(X) 1 2 3 4 5 10 5 0 0 0 How to drop the levels with zeros such that when I will type: table(X) it will give me: table(X) 1 2 10 5 Thank a lot, Bernard --------------------------------- [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Daer all, I have the problem. I could not run the regression, because I have always the warning message "memory.size". from the help file I learned that it is possible to increase the memory size, but I did not undestand how could I do it. Could you please explaine it to me. I would be very grateful for it. The second question: I obtained from the regression the coefficient

Before reinventing the wheel, is there a package for working on (nice) sets and intervals, where one can for instance check if a set of intervals contains a scalar, taking the union and intersection of some intervals etc? Example: # Defining the set i = [1,2) + [3.5, 10] i <- c(1,2, 3.5, 10) attr(i, "include") <- c(TRUE, FALSE, TRUE, TRUE) x <- 0:12 # Get

Hi, just in the process of updating my packages for R v2.0.0 and I have not had time to followed the R v2.0.0 discussions so maybe my questions have already been answered. A concern I have is that when creating packages they should be backward compatible with R v1.9.x for a while until all users and computers has migrated to R v2.0.x. It is pretty straightforward to setup my packages so that

Dear R developers, I will ask a very straightforward question concerning UseMethod's future, because people depending on my code wonder what will happen to it next. In R v2.0.1 NEWS it says o The undocumented use of UseMethod() with no argument is now formally deprecated. and in the R v2.0.1 help(UseMethod) it says 'UseMethod' accepts a call with no arguments and tries to

Hi, forget about the below details. It is not related to the fact that the function is returned from a function. Sorry about that. I've been troubleshooting soo much I've been shoting over the target. Here is a much smaller reproducible example: x <- 1:10 y <- 1:10 + rnorm(length(x)) sp <- smooth.spline(x=x, y=y) ypred <- predict(sp$fit, x) # [1] 2.325181 2.756166 ...

What about adding the argument 'flush=FALSE' to read.table() for the option to ignore trailing elements on each row? This feature already exists in scan(), which is called internally by read.table(): flush: logical: if `TRUE', `scan' will flush to the end of the line after reading the last of the fields requested. This allows putting comments after the last

With tryCatch() it is possible to catch interrupts with tryCatch(). Then you can use a 'finally' statement to clean up, release resources etc. However, how can I "protect" against additional interrupts? This is a concern when the hold down Ctrl+C and generates a sequence of interrupts. Example: tryCatch({ cat("Press Ctrl+C...\n"); Sys.sleep(5); }, interrupt =

Hi I am facing a problem where I would like to import a TIFF image (of spots on a nylon filter) into R (into a matrix for example). When plotting the matrix using fx. scatterplot3d I would then be able to see how the pixel-intensities are distributed in "spot-areas" on the filter - which would be very helpful. Does anynone know of a way to do this? Best regards, Peter Hagedorn ...

When using write.table() to write data frames the integer columns are padded with unnecessary spaces (0x20) so that these columns are right align if you look at them in a text editor. However, I think it is quite a vast of file size. For instance, I am reading a tab-delimited 4200kb microarray data file and writing it back verbatim using write.table() and it becomes 5100kb, a 20% increase. Is this

I would like to export a dataframe to a .csv using: >write.csv(dataframe,"dataframe.csv") but I need to add four "header" lines to the csv that are not part of the dataframe (which itself has a line of column headers). The difficulty (for me, at least!) lies in the requirement that certain elements of the header (X, Y and the number of "Q"s - please see example
