[R] Question on .Options$max.print

Hi, I have a tiny question concerning .Options$max.print I have to set up this value to a greater value than 1 because I want to concatenate my output of a function to one single string (for connivence). I did this via .Options$max.print - 64000 or options(max.print=64000) Then I

Dear list members, sorry for my incompleteness! My problem is the following: (R 2.3.1 on Mac OS X 10.4.7 RAM 1GByte using Mac GUI) I have a function like this: foo1 - function() { out - NULL for(i in 1:10010) out - paste(out, i, . line\n, sep=) return(out) } a -

[R] Query the kind of calling a funcion

Dear all, My question is concerned to the kind how a function is called. Example A: foo(1) Example B: a - foo(1) Is there any way for the function foo() to recognise whether the returned value of foo() is stored in a variable or not, i.e. to distinguish between Example A and B?

[R] Problem with the special argument '...' within a function

Dear all, I wrote some functions using the special argument '...'. OK, it works. But if I call such a function which also called such a function, then I get an error message about unused arguments. Here's an example: fun1 - function(x,a=1) { print(paste(x=,x))

Re: [R] Problem with the special argument '...' within a function

Quoting Liaw, Andy [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I'm not sure if this is what you want, but simply add ... to the list of arguments for fun1 and fun2 would eliminate the error. Andy That's it!! Thank you very much!! Best, Hans Dear all, I wrote some functions using the special argument '...'.

Re: [R] Substring and strsplit

If you are using 'only' English then str - dog strsplit(str,NULL)[[1]] works perfectly and it is fast. But if you also dealing with Unicode character have a look at http://wiki.r-project.org/rwiki/doku.php?id=tips:data- strings:decomposestring Cheers, Hans you can also use substring(),

[R] R 2.3.1 on Mac OSX: apply a function to 'dist()' ?

Dear all, maybe there is someone who has an hint for me. I have to calculate a distance matrix by using my own function to get the distance between two rows of my matrix. The normal way to do this is to use two 'for loops' like for(i in 1:nrow) for(j in i:nrow)

Re: [R] R 2.3.1 on Mac OSX: apply a function to 'dist()' ?

Dear Sarah, many thanks for the hint. Unfortunately my distance metric is more complex. For me it is not only important to know whether there is a change between rows but also to know where (which column) the change occurs and furthermore to know if there is a change in e.g. column 5 to

Hi, only if you allow to input x as a string then you can use, maybe, simply the following one-line-command: xify - function(x) { gsub( [0-9], X, sprintf( paste(%,ifelse(regexpr(\\.,x) 0, x, x-paste(x,. 0,sep=)),
