[Bioc-devel] Bioconductor's GIT transition

2017-03-03 Thread Turaga, Nitesh
Dear Bioconductor Developers, Big news! We are planning to migrate from SVN to git. This is a major change in our version control model. We understand this may be disruptive to some developers and are working to make the transition as smooth as possible. The end goal is to provide a

Some comment on Aaron's stuff One possibility for doing things like this is if your code can be done in C++ using a subset of rows or columns. That can sometimes give the necessary speed up. What I mean is this Say you can safely process 1000 cells (not matrix cells, but biological cells, aka

[Rd] Bug in nlm()

Dear all, I have found a bug in nlm() and would like to submit a report on this. Since nlm() is in the stats-package, which is maintained by the R Core team, bug reports should be submitted to R's Bugzilla. However, I'm not a member of Bugzilla. Could anyone be so kind to add me to R's Bugzilla

Kylie, thanks for reminding us of matter -- I saw you speak about this at the first Bioconductor Boston Meetup, but it went like lightning. For developers contemplating an approach to representing high-volume rectangular data, where there is no dominant legacy format, it is natural to wonder

I'd like to propose that the whenever the length of condition passed to an if or a while statement differs from one, an error is produced rather than just a warning as today: > x <- 1:2 > if (x == 1) message("x == 1") x == 1 Warning message: In if (x == 1) message("x == 1") : the condition has

Dear Aaron Thank you. I think it's an important simplification of a potential API when you are saying that what you mostly need are accessors m[i, ] and m[, i] with i scalar or a short contiguous range, such that the value of that could be a relatively small ordinary matrix. (Compared to
