Hi everyone, I just installed R 2.10 using the Windows binary. At some point in the past using the Windows binary installation, the default behavior of ?functionname changed from plain text to a nice html interface. Now with R 2.10, the default behavior has changed back to the plain text help. I assume this has some thing to do with these changes listed for R 2.10, but I don't quite

Hi again, I have been playing around with the order of loading packages, and as far as I can tell, there's nothing specific with affycoretools that's causing my Rgui to crash (i.e., shuts down and the Microsoft 'please send error report' box pops up). Instead, it has something to do with the order & type of packages that are loaded that add items to the menu bar by

Hi all, I am going to be teaching a workshop next week using R and Bioconductor in one of our university's computer labs. They have recently installed R 2.4.1 for me, and I'm checking all my scripts. I just noticed that using the ?somefunction call to access the documentation for that function is not working. On my own PC, the ? call output changed between R 2.3 and 2.4; before it would

Dear R users, Having searched the mail archive I think the conclusion was that it is not possible to have a column name when there is only one column in the matrix. But I thought I'd check with the more experienced users. What I tried to do was: in a loop I pick a column, record the column name and remove the column from the matrix. But when there were 2 columns left, after one column was

*Summary*: The latest Windows binary version of rgl_081.708 from R-Forge has some problem that causes rgl.snapshot() to fail, at least on my system. Thereafter, *all* rgl 3D graphics are rendered without any text labels. The last problem remains even after (a) removing rgl and re-installing from CRAN, (b) re-starting with a fresh installation of all of R 2.7.2. *System*: Win XP Pro A vexing

Hello. I am trying to load the rJava package in R-2.7.2 (Windows XP 64-bit RGui) and get the following error message even though the mentioned .dll file is located at the directory listed in the error message. I have tried to uninstall and reinstall the package but that does not resolve the problem. Then uninstallation and re-installation of R did not resolve the issue either. Any suggestions are

In building a package, what are the settings in the package files or the build commands that determine whether the compiled HTML help windows have the window title "R Help for package foo" vs. "HTML Help"? I often have quite a few help files active, and it is much more convenient to navigate among them if the window has an informative title. If this is simple to test for in

Say I have the following data: testDat <- data.frame(A = c(1,NA,3), B = c(NA, NA, 3)) > testDat A B 1 1 NA 2 NA NA 3 3 3 rowsums() with na.rm=TRUE generates the following, which is not desired: > rowSums(testDat[, c('A', 'B')], na.rm=T) [1] 1 0 6 rowsums() with na.rm=F generates the following, which is also not desired: > rowSums(testDat[, c('A',

Full_Name: Stephen Milborrow Version: R 2.8.0 OS: Windows XP Submission from: (NULL) (81.159.65.46) Under certain conditions, R 2.8.0 incorrectly echoes integer literals without the "L" suffix.

Hi, R-help, (sessionInfo at the end) I'm trying to construct a function using bquote and running into a strange error message. As an example, what I would like to do is this: z <- 2 eval(bquote(function(x, y) { x^.(z) + y }))(2, 3) However, I get the following: Error in eval(expr, envir, enclos) : invalid formal argument list for "function" However, if I change the

Dear R-list, I'd like to do a meta-analysis plot similar to install.packages('rmeta') require(rmeta) data(catheter) a <- meta.MH(n.trt, n.ctrl, col.trt, col.ctrl, data=catheter, names=Name, subset=c(13,6,5,3,7,12,4,11,1,8,10,2)) summary(a) plot(a) (see attached file) by using my own OR (Odds Ratio) and 95% Confidence Interval data set, which looks like

In R 3.3.0 (also in R 2.7.2), the documentation on 'factor', in "Details" section, has this statement. 'factor(x, exclude = NULL)' applied to a factor is a no-operation unless there are unused levels: in that case, a factor with the reduced level set is returned. It is not true for a factor 'x' that has NA. In that case, if levels of 'x' doesn't
