[R] .Call and to reclaim the memory by allocVector

Hi, I am not sure if this is a bug and I apologize if it is something I didn't read carefully in the R extension manual. My initial search on the R help and R devel list archive didn't find useful information. I am using .Call (as written in the R extension manual) for the C code and have foun

[R] Profiling R code and C code (Rprof and gprof)

Hi, I have searched R mail list archive and couldn't find my answers. The R extension describes how to make use of Rprof to profile R code. gprof can be also used for the same purpose for the C codes when the C codes are written independently and provided with a main() function. I'm currently

[R] generating normal numbers: GetRNGstate, PutRNGstate

Hi I'd like to generate thousands of normal numbers from my C function using the C API functions provided R. I have two options: 1. double norm_rand(); (page 61 of R extension 1.8.1) 2. double rnorm(double mu, double sigma); (page 58 of R extension 1.8.1) If my understanding of R-exts is corre

[R] the huge postscript plot

Hi, I'm just wondering how I can do to make a huge postscript plot be manageable. My question is that I have to draw around 60,000 points which makes it painfully slow to print or view in gv or put it into latex document, though it is very fast to produce the postscript file. A simple example is
