I've written a program which will be run by someone who isn't an R programmer and isn't all that computer-savvy in general. The user starts the program and is prompted to input various information such as location of data files. I've used the Sciviews svDialogs package for this with good

[R] odfWeave learning resources

In general I try not to post questions to forums until I've tried my best to read about them in the available documentation. I recently undertook a project that used odfWeave and have been very pleased with the package. But, the R help documentation suggests that there are more sophisticated

[R] Baffled: triggering error message with an sd result in odfWeave?

2008-12-15 Thread Tubin
I hope someone can point out my stupid error, because I'm baffled. I am calculating a bunch of variable values and then placing them in a document using odfWeave tags. This is working very nicely for every spot except one. One of the values I calculate is traindev: traindev - if

Sarah Goslee says: I'd take a good look at trainlength, trainscores and traindev using str() and summary(), and print at least part of each to the screen. If the same line of code works with one dataset and not another, the problem is more likely your data than your code. If that doesn't help

Unfortunately - no luck. Changing to the ifelse construction didn't fix the problem, and changing the to a zero or a NA also didn't help. Meanwhile, I have 4 other sd calculations on the same dataset, using the same construction, elsewhere in the document and code. None of them are giving me

renaming the variable does not help. I actually started with trainsd as the variable name. I believe that Sarah Goslee must be correct, and it's the data set I'm working from. Which moves my inquiry to the statement that establishes the dataset - I am combing through that now and will report

All interesting suggestions. Let's see... Running the code on a randomly-generated dataframe or a different real dataset still has the problem. A whole new document with only a single line \Sexpr{trainsd} seems to work just fine. If, in the actual project document, I use: test,
