NOTA BENE: This email is about `=`, the assignment operator (e.g. {a=1} which is equivalent to { `=`(a,1) } ), not `=` the named-argument syntax (e.g. f(a=1), which is equivalent to eval(structure(quote(f(1)),names=c('','a'))). As far as I can tell from the documentation, assignment with = is precisely equivalent to assignment with <-. Yet they call different primitives: >

Since both comparison and negation are well-defined for time differences, I wonder why abs and division are not defined for class difftime. This behavior is clearly documented on the man page: "limited arithmetic is available on 'difftime' objects"; but why? Both are natural, semantically sound, and useful operations and I see no obvious reason that they should give an error:

i've noticed a strange problem when plotting a stepfun. according to the documentation, the xlim parameter should bound the range of the function being plotted, and is returned as the extreme two values (i.e. first and last) in the vector t from the plot.stepfun call. instead, it plots beyond the desired range (although the limits are preserved for the viewing space). to reproduce: foo

Dear R developer, I am not quite sure, if I should post my concern as a wish to r-bugs at r-project.org. Thus, as recommended, I first send an email to you. My request is the following: I would appreciate, if it was possible to obtain a plot of a 'stepfun' with a strict interpretation of xlim. What I mean: sf <- stepfun(1:4, 1:5) plot(sf, xlim=c(0,10)) does not bound the function to

I was wondering if there exists a function that automatically tries to detect the format of a datafile. E.g. if it is an ascii datafile, that it can detect appropriate defaults for the read.table() parameters. One could for example read the first 10 lines of the file and analyze the format of the first line in comparison with the others, count the number of dots, colons and semicolons, etc. More

Hello list:) I have lots of values which I would like to get a histogram outline out of. An example of what I am talking about: testdata = runif(100) bbb = seq(0,1, by = 0.01) hist(testdata, breaks = bbb) I would like to get the outline of the resulting histogram. Now, I think that I can do this using the stepfun function. However, I am uncertain of how to get to the data the stepfun function

Dear members, I would like a help for extracting the values from a step function (stepfun). >From help(stepfun) we have the following example: Y0<-c(1.,2.,4.,3.) y0<-c(1.,2.,3.,4.) sfun<-stepfun(1:3,y0,f=0) plot(sfun) Now, suppose instead I was given the object (*sfun*, say) from which I wanted to extract the values generated by the function *stepfun*. More precisely, I want to

Dear R gurus and users, in order to provide the local users of R with a printed copy of the ample documentation provided with R and the optional packages installed, I have introduced a minor change to the R/doc/manual/Makefile.

After long but intermittent discussion (it was mentioned at DSC99, for example), we have reorganized the standard packages, with base graphics stats utils methods normally loaded, mle splines stepfun tcltk tools available for loading, and ctest eda lqs modreg mva nls ts as stub packages which ensure back-compatibility. (These have all been merged into stats except lqs which rejoins

I have two vectors, a and b. b is a text file. I want to find in b those elements of a which occur at the beginning of the line in b. I have the following code, but it only returns a value for the first value in a, but I want both. Any ideas please. a = c(2,3) b = NULL b[1] = "aaa 2 aaa" b[2] = "2 aaa" b[3] = "3 aaa" b[4] = "aaa 3 aaa"
