Re: [R] system() command in R

2011-04-10 Thread rasanpreet kaur suri
Thank you all for the suggestions. I've been trying different things to make
this work.

Mike I did try what you suggested . It would work normally But i guess here
the problem is my local server itself. It by default takes time to start and
nothing I do is helping . So I came up with the idea to communicate with the
server through R-java connection.
I am halfway through that , I hope it works:)

Thank you all for the response.

 The ampersand is a good idea, but nohup is best avoided in scripts. Rather
 the server itself should handle the transition to daemon status to avoid
 ending up with many duplicate server processes running.

 I hadn't done this in R but expect to do so soon.
 I just got done with some java code to do something similar and you can 
 expect in any implementation these things will be  system dependent. It 
 often helps to have simple test cases to isolate the problem. Here I made a 
 tst script called foo
 that takes a minute or so to exevute and generates some output.

 If I type
 system(./foo,wait=F)
  the prompt comes back right away but stdout seems to still go to my console 
 and maybe stdin is not redicrected either and it could eat your input ( no 
 idea, but this is probably not what you want).

 I did try this that could fix your problem, on debian anyway it seems to 
 work,

 system(nohup ./foo )
  you can man nohup for details.

Re: [R] system() command in R

2011-04-05 Thread rasanpreet kaur suri
Hi,
 The further steps do not get executed because the server keeps
waiting. and they are in the same function as the start server.

if server started manually then they run normally from the R environment. Is
that what you wanted to know?  I hope I answered it .

 First, you might want to start by generating a new column to identify your
 'pdf and bdf or whatever once it's merged.

 For the merging, see

 ?merge

 But as someone's already pointed out, it's not clear what you are trying to
 merge by.

 Also, as your example calculations show, you don't need to merge it to to
 the calcuations you want to do...

 Can you provide a (correct) example of what you want your merged
 data.frame to look like?
 What column do you want to use in your data.frame to merge against?
 I'm guessing SampleID(?), but then again, these aren't unique in your
 `pdf` data.frame. For instance, what would the row for SDM001 look
 like in your merged data.frame?

these are just part of the frames..
i have to subtract the first five values of dataframe2 from one value from
dataframe1
eg: subtract-DF2$Day_0_Read1-DF1$ ZeroMean


if u notice the repair hours in both have to match...along with their id's.
i have tried this 
zeroday_subtract1=DF1$Day_0_Read1 - DF2[DF1$RepairHours,]$ZeroMean
but it dosent work


please help me with this...i know its basic but i needhelp  
thx in advance

 Hi:

 Just to be different, here's a data.table solution:

 library(data.table)

 # It's always a good idea to have your merge key variables match in each
 data frame/table
 names(DF1)[1] - 'SampleId'
 dt1 - data.table(DF1, key = 'SampleId, RepairHours')
 dt2 - data.table(DF2, key = 'SampleId, RepairHours')
 dt3 - merge(dt1, dt2)
  dim(dt3)
 [1] 30 12 # check
 # Do the subtraction
 dt3$diff - with(dt3, Day_0_Read1 - ZeroMean)

 If you want to perform operations between two data frames/tables, you need
 to merge the data first before you can perform the calculation(s). Dr.
 Kaza's solution works if you change the ID variable name first in DF1 the
 way I did and substitute SampleId for Sample_id in his code, or if you
 change the ID variable in DF2 to Sample_id and use his code as is.

 HTH,
 Dennis
