Hi all, I created environment "mytoolbox" by : mytoolbox <- new.env(parent=baseenv()) Is there anyway I put it in the search path ? If you need some background : In a project, I often write some small functions, and load them into my workspace directly, so when I list the objects with ls(), it looks pretty messy. So I am wondering if it is possible to creat an

Hi, I am trying to output a R data set for use in WinBugs, I used dput(list(x=rnorm(100),N=100),file="bug.dat") But I can't get the intended format: list(x=c(.......),N=100), instead, I got something like this (copied the first two lines): [00000000]???73?74?72?75??63?74?75?72??65?28?6C?69??73?74?28?78???? structure(list(x

Hi, I would like to assign a value to a member b of the list a in position 3, by calling: assign( target, 2.34, 3) My question is what the "target" should be. I tried target <- paste("a", $, "b") and something else, but haven't got the right answer yet. BTW, if I attached a list named

Hi, I just got a quick question here, when I install a new version of R , is there an easy to keep the installed R packages ? Thanks a lot for any help. tong

Did some search but couldn't find useful result. I am trying to read a n*m dimension data with read.table, what i need is a numeric array, is there any efficient way to allow me get this array directly instead of a list? I tried to use as.array() to change the mode, but seems it doesn't work and i got this error message: "Error in "dimnames<-.data.frame"(`*tmp*`,

Hi All, I have been struggling to figure out how to compile c codes for R use. I am using Win XP + Cygwin + R binaries. After I followed all the instructions in " Building R for Windows" from Murdoch's website, I tried to Run something like : R CMD SHLIB C:\R\test.c , but still didn't get any output. My first question is, does this mean I already did

Hi you guys: I have been wondering if there is any way to change the labeling in plot.ts( ), for example , if I plot two sequences, i always got y labels as "series1", "series2", I tried to use ylab=c((expression(mu_1)),(expression(mu_2))), but it doesn't work. thanks in advance for any help best.

Hi, I have a data set (data frame) describing some features of the students in a high school in the following format: Stu ID Year feature 1 feature 2 ............. 1001 1990 1001 1991 1001 1992 1002 1990 1002 1991 1002 1992 Some features of a few of these students are missing, I would like to

Hi all, I met a problem while using the debug package, I have the following program: mainfun<- function(){ beta<-1 result<-subfun(beta+x) } subfun<-function(expr){ y <- eval(expr, envir=list(x=c(1,2)),enclos = parent.frame()) return(y) } I have no problem using this program without calling the debug

Hi, I just realized that in Matlab, as long as memory is pre-allocated, doing for-loop doesn't cost more time than doing things in vector form. But it seems in R, it still cost a lot to do for-loop. Is there any improvement in R that I missed. Thanks a lot. Merry Xmas Everyone !

Is there a way to call a function, and explicitly set an argument to 'not specified'? My situation is the following. I have a function which passes on most of its arguments to another function. The second function, myfun2, serializes all arguments and is out of my control. myfun <- function(...){ return(myfun2(...)); } now, the value for arguments of myfun are stored in variables.

Dear Rers, I have a function to barplot() a matrix, eg myfun <- function(x, ...) { barplot(x , ... )} (The real function is more complicated, it does things to the matrix first.) So I can do: m1 <- matrix(1:20,4) myfun(m1) myfun(m1, main="My title") I'd like to be able to add the number of rows of the matrix passed to the function to the "..." argument, eg

I'm not sure if this is what you want, but simply add ... to the list of arguments for fun1 and fun2 would eliminate the error.

Dear all, I would like to write a function like: myfun<-function(x,fn) {xx<-exp(x); x*fn(xx)} where fn is a symbolic description of any function with its argument to be specified. Therefore myfun(5,"2+0.3*y^2") should return 5*(2+0.3*exp(5)^2), myfun(5,"log(y)") should return 5*log(exp(5)) and so on. I tried with "expression" and others, but without success.

When trying out some variations with `[.data.frame` I noticed some (to me) odd behaviour, which I found out has nothing to do with `[.data.frame`, but rather with the way arguments are matched, when mixing named/unnamed and missing/non-missing arguments. Consider the following example: myfun <- function(x,y,z) { ? print(match.call()) ? cat('x=',if(missing(x)) 'missing'

Hi, All: I had some trouble debugging C source dynamically loaded into R , when I issued N in gdb(or insight) , the debugger, instead of moving downward step by step, jumped to strange positions (upward, downward, one step, a few steps away). To enter the debugger, I issued gdb(insight) Rgui.exe in Cygwin and add this line : asm("int $3"); to my C code. After entering R, I

I am trying to write a function, which would allow to call various methods and would pass to them extra arbitrary parameters. My first attempt was to use call() as illustrated below, but apparently '...' cannot be used in such context. How can this be achieved ?
