[R] Cannot run install binary package on Windows 8

2015-04-11 Thread Maciej Węgorkiewicz
Hi all,

I am just starting with R and cannot use lmtest package on Windows 8.
This package contains dwtest function that I am interested in.

I began with installing the core of R (with rgui) - version 3.1.3 64-bit.

Then I installed lmtest package using GUI menu, but after success
message I cannot run dwtest() getting message that the it cannot find
the function.

When I used installed.packages() function I saw lmtest on the list but
there was yes under the NeedsCompilation column. Does it mean I
need to compile the package in order to use it?

I uninstalled lmtest and tried to put binary Windows version by
downloading zip file from here:
http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/lmtest/index.html

I took the file:
http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/contrib/3.1/lmtest_0.9-33.zip

downloaded it and tried to use the function of installing from local zip file.

However the effect was the same: NeedsCompilation set to true,
dwtest does not work.
The package contains binary file for 64-bit (DLLs).

What can I do in order to run this?

Hi Jim

The name's come up on my radar, but that's about it. I'll look into it.

Thanks for the reference.

 I cannot think of a better incentive to take action on this

 Hi list

 Using the tm package, part of the pre-processing work is
 to remove
 words, etc. from the corpus.

 I wish to remove people's names and also their initials
 which are
 peppered throughout the corpus. But, because some people's
 initials are

 the same as parts of common words - e.g. 'am' = 'became'
 = 'bec e' or
 'ec' = 'because' = 'b ause' or 'ar' = 'arrival' =
 'rival' (which has
 a
 completely different meaning).

 Is there any way of doing this without leaving a trail of
 nonsense
 half-terms behind? I suspect that it might have something
 to do with
 regular expressions, but to be honest, I'm (currently)
 pretty crap with

 those.

 Would it make a difference if I removed initials and names
 *prior* to
 converting all text to lower case, so I remove 'AM' and
 because
 'became'
 is lower case, it should remain unaffected?

 Any recommendations on how best to proceed with this?

 Thanks as always.
 Sun

 Dear R users,

 hope you can point me in the right direction. I am stuck with the
 following
 problem.

 My function f1 reads csv files, manipulates them into the right xts
 format and returns the output at the end. This works perfectly fine. Now,
 I
 need to run f1 over a long list of various csv files, all of the same
 format, but different dates (or time stamps) which is guaranteed by
 design.
 All these individual results per each file I hope to combine into one xts
 or zoo object.

 I tried lapply as follows:

 # all csv files start with z1:
 file.names - list.files(pattern = z1*, full.names = T, recursive =
 FALSE)

 # my function:
 f1 - function(x, param){
 # x: the csv file
 # param: some parameter for calculation
 # spits results out
 return(results)
 }

 res - lapply(file.names, function(x){f1(x, param)})

 I wrote the output to res and by subsetting res[1], res[2], ... I can
 retrieve the results of each individual csv file on which I applied my
 function f1.

 How could I append or merge all individual results res[i] for my i csv
 files into one xts or zoo object?

 Many thanks in advance,

 Bernard

Re: [R] Removing words and initials with tm

2015-04-11 Thread Bob Green

Hello Sun,

The order of the TM transformations makes a lot of difference.

It isn't a shortcut, but if you identify all names you could create 
your own Stop words list:


corpus  -tm_map(corpus , removeWords, c(english,   ))

In the case of York,  Key Word in Context (KWIC) syntax could be used 
to check how certain words are used. You could identify the words 
useages you want to remove or retain and respectively rename the 
relevant instances.


This is labour intensive, but Greis in his Quantitative Corpus 
Linguistics, notes that sometimes time spent on trying to refine code 
might be better spent on manual analysis (p164). This book includes a 
KWIC type function (page 127), but I haven't been able to work out 
how to modify it to read more than six words either side of the 
specified word. Six should be adequate for your purpose. Jockers book 
also includes a KWIC function but I don't believe it searches the 
entire corpus, rather a specified text.


I recently checked and TM doesn't have a KWIC function, but for the R 
talented (which excludes me) it might be possible to write one. For 
example, Jim Holtman once wrote a KWIC function to identify word use 
in a csv file.


Bob

Re: [R] Cannot run install binary package on Windows 8

2015-04-11 Thread Jeff Newmiller
Did you use the library function to load it into memory? You may need to 
practise with some simpler tasks using base R before you get too frustrated 
with using a contributed package. The Introduction to R document that is 
provided with R is worth your time.

Re: [R] Cannot run install binary package on Windows 8

2015-04-11 Thread John Kane
You need to load the library after you have installed the package.  Only 
libraries in the base R installation load automatically. Thus every time you 
want to use contributed package XXX you need to issue the command
library(XXX) or require(XXX) 

So at the top of your program try

library(lmtest)

You should be good to go.  Newbies often miss this step.

Good luck with R
