Creating datasets in packages
5 messages · Hutchinson,David [PYR], Sarah Goslee, Gábor Csárdi
The key question:
What am I doing wrong?
We don't know what you _did_. How did you save the data? Did you follow the directions in the Writing R Extensions manual? Does ls() show the dataset? etc. You can "access the dataset from data" - do you mean that you can load the data directly from the data directory within your package? How?

Example R datasets (such as USArrests) are loaded and can be accessed by the dataset name:

In developing the package, I have associated datasets (*.rda) stored in the data sub-directory. I built and installed the package successfully. When I load the BowRiver dataset and USArrests
data(BowRiver) data(USArrests) ls()
[1] "data" "USArrests" Why is mine stored as "data" and not "BowRiver"? -----Original Message----- From: Sarah Goslee [mailto:sarah.goslee at gmail.com] Sent: Thursday, April 30, 2009 1:18 PM To: Hutchinson,David [PYR] Cc: r-help at r-project.org Subject: Re: [R] Creating datasets in packages The key question:

Because you have named it 'data' when you saved it into the .rda file, haven't you? Gabor
