Is it possible to override S4 methods in an installed package? The naive library("pkg") setMethod("foo", signature(obj = "bar"), function(obj , x, y) { new definition } , where="package:pkg") results in the error Error in setMethod("foo", signature(obj = "bar...

Greetings. I love R, we run Gentoo. I want to maintain R packages in the same methods I use for the rest of them; in Gentoo this is in "the portage tree", or in "a portage overlay". I am working...

Knowledgable group, I am in the process of designing an advanced statistics class for doctoral level clinical psychology students. Their background in basic statistical concepts is OK, but they have little exposure to statistical software. I am looking for pre...

I am having a problem using boxlpot with my data. I have my data arranged in a data table, and two of my columns are "mass" and "month". I am trying to plot the mass of my study animals by...

Dear Reader I am trying to change the font in a plot and after several trials finally came up with the following code. plot(var_a, var_b, pch = 16, font.lab = 10, font = 10) points(var_a, var_c...

Dear R forum, I want to replace all the elements in a data frame (dd) which match the character "x" with "0". What's the most elegant way of doing this (there must be an easy way which I've...

I'm working to automate the building of RPM packages for CRAN &c. In the process, I'm trying to get a sense of the correct dependencies. It's my sense that R CMD CHECK is the Right Way to...

Probably posting this to the wrong list ... but I'm in the process of learning R, after many years of using SAS --- so I thought I'd ask this question here: Is there with a function (or macro) in SAS...

Hello. I'm looking to create an R package which requires a user-specific parameter in order to work. To be more descriptive: I'm making a database API available via an R package, but I want to control access...

Seth, Yes, it looks like the forwarding of my previous post to the list dropped the attachments. I have re-attached again on this message. This addresses a deficiency of simpleaffy in recognizing two HG-U133A variants. Specifically, I was...
