similar to: eliminating control characters from formatted data files

Hi all user R, My simple question is...I have a vector of names of predictors, text<-c("datem","cola","eslom")...I try to plot the model with this predictor in sequence loop...., for(i in 1:3){ png(paste("fig_",i,sep="")) plot(preplot.gam(mod9)[[i]],se=T,rug=F,main="",xaxt="n",ylab="",xlab="")

Does anyone know if there is a simple way to print raw vectors, such that ASCII characters are printed for bytes in the ASCII range, and their hex representation otherwise? rawToChar doesn't work when we have something like c(0x00, 0x00, 0x44, 0x00). -Matt

Hi, A piece of my code that uses readBin() to read a certain file type is behaving strangely with R 2.7.0. This seems to be because of a failure to match() strings after using rawToChar() when the original was terminated with a "\0" character. Direct equality testing with == still works as expected. I can reproduce this as follows: > x <- "foo" > y <-

Dear List, I have a list of 600+ *.gz files that I would like to extract and read the geotiffs contained within them. I tried using the untar() function to simplify this task but I am stumped by an error. I've combed the Internet for a solution without luck. The details are below, and any help in solving this matter is appreciated. > files = list.files(path = "J:/GIMMS/NDVI",

Dear R-Users, Are there any packages that enable the modifications of highlighted areas / annotations in pdf documents? It seems feasible - I have explored some R code (see below). However, I would rather avoid to reinvent the wheel. The problem: When highlighting pdf-documents with Microsoft Edge, the bounding box is sometimes misplaced, and quite ugly so. It also lacks the ability to draw

I noticed today that in R 2.3.1, I get > serialize(list(1,2,3), NULL, ascii = TRUE) [1] "A\n2\n131841\n131840\n19\n3\n14\n1\n1\n14\n1\n2\n14\n1\n3\n" > but in R 2.4.0 alpha I get > serialize(list(1,2,3), NULL, ascii = TRUE) [1] 41 0a 32 0a 31 33 32 30 39 36 0a 31 33 31 38 34 30 0a 31 39 0a 33 0a 31 34 [26] 0a 31 0a 31 0a 31 34 0a 31 0a 32 0a 31 34 0a 31 0a 33 0a >

Hi, ?rawToChar 'rawToChar' converts raw bytes either to a single character string or a character vector of single bytes. (Note that a single character string could contain embedded nuls.) Allowing embedded nuls in a string might be an interesting experiment but it seems to cause some troubles to most of the string manipulation functions. A string with an embedded 0:

Hi, right now we have (on R v2.7.0 patched (2008-04-23 r45466)) that: > rawToChar(raw(0)) [1] "" > rawToChar(raw(0), multiple=TRUE) character(0) Is this intended or should both return character(0)? Personally, I would prefer that an empty input vector returns an empty output vector. Same should then apply to charToRaw(), but right now we get: > x <- character(0) >

Hi, I'm running into more issues when reading data from a gzfile connection. If I read the data sequentially with successive calls to readBin(), the data I get looks ok. But if I call seek() between the successive calls to readBin(), I get corrupted data. Here is a (hopefully) reproducible example. See my sessionInfo() at the end (I'm not on Windows, where, according to the man page,

Dear R-Users, I need a very fast and reliable database solution so I try to serialize a data.frame (to binary data) and to store this data to an SQLite database. This is what I tried to do: library(RSQLite) con <- dbDriver("SQLite") db <- dbConnect(con, "test") dbSendQuery(db, 'CREATE TABLE frames("simID" INT, "data" BLOB)') data.bin <-

Hi all, I have a csv file containing words with *UNPRINTABLE ASCII* characters (described in the following table). Are there any viable method in eliminating these characters? I realise that *EXTENDED ASCII* characters (i.e , ¡, ¢, £, ¤ etc) can be removed or replaced via *"gsub"* or *"gregexpr"* functions. But am not certain with the *UNPRINTABLE ASCII* characters. Your

I have some functions that write an external text file for postprocessing by another program. Some instructions to the other program need to be indicated by null values (\000 or ^@). The function currently uses code like: writeChar(rawToChar(as.raw(0)), con) where con is a connection to the file. Previous to version 2.8.0 this worked fine. With 2.8.0 it still works, but I get a warning

Hello, Suppose in the following code, PROTECT(sr = R_tryEval( .... )) sr is a RAWSXP vector. I wish to return another RAWSXP starting at position 13 onwards (base=0). I could create another RAWSXP of the correct length and then memcpy the required bytes and length to this new one. However is there a more efficient method? Regards Saptarshi Guha

Hi all, I have what appears to be a truly puzzling problem. I've got this P4 32-bit machine running CentOS 5.5 with XEN that has two NICs: one onboard, an Intel Corporation 82540EM Gigabit and one on an expansion card, Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8169 Gigabit. The second one is recognized as eth1. What's happening is, it is showing up under one of the two MAC's: either

Please excuse me for asking such basic questions: Here is my code > y=c(1.21,0.51,0.14,1.62,-0.8,0.72,-1.71,0.84,0.02,-0.12) > ybar=mean(y) > ll=length(y); > ybarv=rep(ybar,ll) > x=1:ll > plot(x,ybarv,pch=1) > segments(x[1],ybar,x[ll],ybar) What I get is a collection of small circles, with a segment "on top" of the circles, which is almost what I want. But I

Dear R experts, It seems that Rprintf has to be used to print from a C routine to guarantee to write to R?s output according to https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/R-exts.html#Printing. However if a string is UTF-8 encoded, non-ASCII characters (e.g., the infinity symbol http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/221e/index.htm) are misprinted. Is this an unsupported feature or is

Working on Windows I have had to deal with CSV files that, unfortunately, contain embedded Control-Zs, i.e. ASCII character 26 in decimal, and the readLines() function in R on Windows (2.15.2 and 3.0.0) appears to truncate at the control-Z. There is no problem at all on Ubuntu Linux with R 3.0.0. Am I mistaken or is this genuine? # Create a small file with embedded Control-Z h3 <-

Someone solved the problem of saving R-objects to a database? These are the two varaints I've tried so far without success: 1) ser = rawToChar(serialize(obj, NULL, ascii=TRUE)) dbSendQuery(link, paste("insert into table values(1, '",ser,"')",sep='')) The field to save the object in the MySQL Database is of type text. unser = dbGetQuery(link,"select

I am working with Sweave and would like to print out into my latex document the result of the R command version$platform So what I first tried in my .Rnw document was \Sexpr{print(version$platform)}. However, the output from this command is the string "x86_64-apple-darwin10.8.0" (without the quotes). This contains an underscore, which is a special character in tex and so I get an error

Suppose x and y are numeric vectors of the same length. plot(x,y) #scatterplot lmObj1 <- lm(y~x) # best fit line abline(lmObj1) # good lmObj2 <- lm(x~y) #get best fit but with axes interchanged abline(lmObj2) # not what I want. I want the correct line, drawn on the same graph, but with # response and predictor variables interchanged One way to proceed would be to
