Hi, suppose I do: b <- matrix(1:9,3,3) bname <- "b" now dim(b) returns [1] 3 3 and dim(bname) returns NULL is there a function to pass bname to such that dim returns the dimensions of b...

Hi, Ever since the G4 came out I've been interested in the potential for number crunching applications to take advantage of altivec, the G4's parallel processing unit. It seems like altivec should give the G4 a great advantage...

Hi, Is there a function func(x) where x is an array such that it returns a list of the indices of all non-zero elements of the array? for example: a: 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 1...

Hi, Two questions: 1) I've seen the speed advantages of Darwin over Carbon R that Jan posted on a G4. Would these advantages be realized on a G3 machine? 2) What would be the quickest/easiest set of steps...

Hi, I'm looking for a function which returns the name of the argument object as a string: >vect <- 1:3 >function(vect) "vect" I've looked at 'name', 'names', 'objects', none seem to do exactly what I want. ls...

Hi, I recently switched to OS 10.1, and R1.3.1, from 8.6/1.3.0, where I had a .Rprofile file with a .First function: .First <- function() { library(sna) etc... } This worked in R1.3.0 on...

Hi, I'm using the carbon version of R (on sys 8.6) and want to install packages (and also learn how to get R to recognize functions I write myself). In UNIX/osX there is "R CMD INSTALL..." but...

Hi, I just downloaded the new R 1.5.0 source package, expanded it into /usr/local/ and did './configure' and 'make'. configure seemed to go ok, and make worked away for a while, compiling various files, but balked when...

Hi, I've been using postscript() and ps2pdf to view plot outputs from DarwinR (1.4.0) using OS X's (10.1.3) terminal program. An example of the commands I use are given below. I have found some...

Hi, My plots are all coming out sideways! If I do the following: > postscript("plot1.ps",horizontal=TRUE,paper="letter") > plot(ns,meanpl/maxvec) > dev.off(2) The output file has "ns" on the left and the "meanpl/maxvec" on...
