dear R group: I have the probably fairly common problem that I would like to have one code.R file do different things if it is invoked from a symbolic link, which should be easy to uncover. $ ln -s code.R code-0.R $ ln -s code.R code-1.R $ R CMD BATCH code-1.R what needs to be in code-1.R to put code-1.r into a character vector? help appreciated. regards, /ivo welch PS : I read

I am completely new to R, but have some bg in cs and stat. since R has an interactive programming environment, I thought I could write my command in a file and run it in batch mode in the Rgui. but it didnt work. I checked the doc. it said Rcmd BATCH inputfile. it didnt work either. Can someone help? thank you. thank you. also if you can shed some light on passing command line arguements (like

Dear R wizards: is there a clean way to assign to elements in a list? what I would like to do, in pseudo R+perl notation is f <- function(a,b) list(a+b,a-b) (c,d) <- f(1,2) and have c be assigned 1+2 and d be assigned 1-2. right now, I use the clunky x <- f(1,2) c <- x[[1]] d <- x[[2]] rm(x) which seems awful. is there a nicer syntax? regards, /iaw ---- Ivo Welch

Hi All, I have an R script that spawns output in the form of an HTML page. This is done by the R2HTML package. Now I want to run the same script using Rcmd BATCH. However, it seems that it is not possible to use R2HTML in this case. My script ends with this error message: ######################### Error in dev.print(png, file = AbsGraphFileName, width = Width, height = Height, : can only

dear R wizards---I must be standing on the line (German translation---this must be obvious). This is probably embarrassingly obvious to anyone, except to me right now. maybe it is late. I would like to run my R code in batch, but not see the R compilations and my R source code---I just want to see the same output that I would see if I ran source("i.R"), but direct it to a file. I can

I am troubled by what appears to be a glitch in the current distribution, or in its installation on our system. I've traced it, and found a work- around. Is this normal? Is there a cleaner solution? The problem: During a package installation, the warning message "WARNING: ignoring environment value of R_HOME" from line 31 of <R_HOME>/bin/R is accidentally spliced into the

First I tried 'setenv R_SHELL /usr/local/bin/bash', as bash is the weapon of choice for the faculty wishing to use R, then ran ./configure as before. The ./configure output line using as R_SHELL for scripts ... /usr/local/bin/bash would seem to indicate that the R_SHELL environment variable was recognized and acknowledged. However, I got the same build error: gnumake[2]: Entering

I am not sure if this is already known. I checked BUGS and found some references to similar behavior when R_HOME is set? Here is what I get: (1) Fresh build of 1.4.1 under Linux/RH-7.2. All tests pass. > R CMD check ctest * checking for working latex ... OK * using log directory `/home/andyj/stat/R-1.4.1/library/ctest.Rcheck' Installing *source* package `ctest'

I'm trying to install packages in Gentoo Linux using install.packages(). The packages download fine, but when it comes to installation, I get this message: WARNING: ignoring environment value of R_HOME /var/tmp/portage/R-1.5.1/image//usr/lib/R/bin/Rcmd: /var/tmp/portage/R-1.5.1/image//usr/lib/R/bin/Rcmd: No such file or directory I have the R_HOME set to the correct value (/usr/lib/R), but I

Dear R wizards---I read Brian Ripley's post from 2004 which said that it was not possible to print to STDERR. Alas, I have more modest needs. I was wondering if it was possible to just send a string to STDERR with cat() while in CMD BATCH mode. Is it not possible to open STDERR in R? (Or does R use STDERR for itself and redirect it into the output stream?) This would be on a standard Unix

Ok, one last try. R1.2.0, WinNT 4.0: [R is installed in: R_HOME=D:\Programme\R\rw1020] Can anyone give a hint what the following error message (when running Rcmd INSTALL) means and what to do about it? cd D:\Programme\R\rw1020\src\library D:\Programme\R\rw1020\bin\rcmd install testfunctions make: Entering directory `/cygdrive/d/Programme/R/rw1020/src/gnuwin32' dlltool -k --as as --dllname

Hi! I encountered some things trying to build own packages under Windows 2000 for which i found no answer in the documentation. First. 1. I do not found the rcmd.exe in the bin directory of R_HOME. I installed R using the setup.exe 2. I updated the R intatllation with one of the zip files. (rw1041sp.zip) now i had the rcmd.exe in the bin. 3. I do not found any hint in the docu that perl is

Hi, I'm running R-1.9.1 and I'm unable to succesfully install packages using either 'R CMD INSTALL xxx.tar.gz' or 'install.packages("xxx"). For example, if I try to install the msm package I get: R CMD INSTALL msm_0.4.1.tar.gz * Installing *source* package 'msm' ...

Hello, I am trying to build the R-2.11.1 software for university faculty to use in research projects on a DEC/Compaq/HP AlphaServer model GS160 16CPU/64GB memory running Tru64Unix aka OSF1 version 5.1B-5. Is it known whether it is possible to build the R-2.11.1 software on the platform I am using? In my attempts to build the R-2.11.1 software, I first used the native C and Fortran 77/90/95

dear r-experts: there is probably a very easy way to do it, but it eludes me right now. I have a large data frame with, say, 26 columns named "a" through "z". I would like to define "sets of regressors" from this data frame. something like myregressors=c("b", "j", "x") lm( l ~ myregressors, data=... ) is the best way to create new

dear R experts---I am using the coef() function to pick off the coefficients from an lm() object. alas, I also need the standard errors and I need them fast. I know I can do a "summary()" on the object and pick them off this way, but this computes other stuff I do not need. Or, I can compute (X' X)^(-1) s^2 myself. Has someone written a fast se() function? incidentally, I think
