I'm fairly new to R, coming from a programming background -- it's quite nice to work with dataframes, though, as opposed to explicit iteration. One thing I've found, which is surprising is that zero-length dataframes seem to cause errors: > t <- data.frame(bob=c(100)) > order(t$bob) [1] 1 > t1 <- t[t$bob < 50] > order(t1$bob) Error in order(na.last, decreasing,

Hi -- I'm working with some data frames with fairly high nrows (call it 8 columns, by 20,000 rows). Are there any indexes on these columns? When I do a df[df$foo == 42,] [which I think is idiomatic], am I doing a linear search or something better? If the column contents is ordered, I'd like to at least be doing a naive binary search. Thanks! Ranjan

Hi -- I just noticed the following (R 2.6.1 on OSX) > lapply(c(as.Date('2007-01-01')), I) [[1]] [1] 13514 This is a bit surprising.. Why does lapply unclass the object? Sorry for such a basic question, I don't seem able to produce the right google keywords. Ranjan

Thanks! I am trying to use it in R. (Actually, I try to give my students experiences with different kinds of files and I was wondering if there were tools available for such kinds of files. I don't know Lisp so I do not actually know what the lines towards the bottom of the file mean.( Many thanks for your response! Best wishes, Ranjan On Wed, 17 Jan 2018 20:59:48 -0800 David Winsemius

New function below is a bit faster due to more efficent memory handling. for-loop FTW! directionless_circular_permutations2 <- function( n ) { n1 <- n - 1L v <- seq.int( n1 ) ix <- combinations( n1, 2L ) jx <- permutations( n-3L, n-3L ) jxrows <- nrow( jx ) jxoffsets <- seq.int( jxrows ) result <- matrix( n, nrow = factorial( n1 )/2L, ncol = n ) k

I don't know if this is more efficient than enumerating with distinct directions and weeding... it seems kind of heavyweight to me: ####### library(gtools) directionless_circular_permutations <- function( n ) { v <- seq.int( n-1 ) ix <- combinations( n-1, 2 ) jx <- permutations( n-3, n-3 ) x <- lapply( seq.int( nrow( ix ) ) , function( i ) {

Jeff, I wanted to let you know that your function is faster than generating the directional circular permutations and weeding. Here is the time for n = 10. I compared with just doing the permutations, there is no point in proceeding further with the weeding since it is slower at the start itself. system.time(directionless_circular_permutations(10)) user system elapsed 1.576 0.000

Hello Sir, I am Reetesh Ranjan, a 3rd year undergraduate student at the *INDIAN INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY BHU, Varanasi-*one of the premier engineering colleges of India. I have gone through your webpage thoroughly and I am very interested in the work that you are undertaking on *Project: Weighting Schemes.*. I earnestly wish to work under your guidance, learn and progress through this experience.

Dear all, I have a question with regard to the use of hclust. I would like to be able to specify my own distance matrix instead of asking R to compute the distance matrix for me. It is computationally easier for me this way. My question is: How can I get hclust to accept this? Thanks, Ranjan -- *************************************************************************** Ranjan

Dear friends, Is there an easy way of commenting out a block of R code after it has been written? (I am aware that R-aware editors can insert # line-by-line while it is being written, but I want to basically block out chunks of R code in a few strokes.) This question was asked on this mailing list some time ago: Professor Ripley's answer was to try the following:

Thanks! Yes, however, this seems a bit wasteful. Just wondering if there are other, more efficient options possible.

Dear list, I have been using the Rmath library for quite a while: in the current instance, I am calling dnt (non-central t density function) repeatedly for several million. When the argument is small, I get the warning message: full precision was not achieved in 'pnt' which is nothing unexpected. (The density calls pnt, if you look at the function dnt.) However, to have this happen a

If one is equal to the reverse of another, keep only one of the pair.

1) Definitely yes. They are on CRAN. Just type install.packages( c("dplyr", "tidyr" ) ) at the R console. 2) Don't know, but most likely the answer is yes. Since all R packages on Linux are compiled by R when installed, you either need to activate your virtual machine, compile the packages, and save the state for future use, or you have to build the package library on

It seems the file contains records, with each record having 18 fields. I would use awk (standard unix tool), creating an awk script to process the file into a new file with one line for each record, each line with 18 fields, say comma-separated. The csv file can then be easily read into R via the function read.csv. HTH, Eric On Thu, Jan 18, 2018 at 6:22 AM, Ranjan Maitra <maitra at

Dear friends, I would like to get all possible arrangements of n objects listed 1:n on a circle. Now this is easy to do in R. Keep the last spot fixed at n and fill in the rest using permuations(n-1, n-1) from the gtools package. However, what if clockwise or counterclockwise arrangements are the same? I know that half of the above (n - 1)! arrangements are redundant. Is there an easy way to
