You'll most likely have to switch to the NO_CONVERSION mode before calling r.get(), then you'll be able to call r.colnames() on the resulting object. rpy2 could be making things easier, here with an example from the dev version: http://rpy.sourceforge.net/rpy2/doc-dev/html/robjects.html#names L. >>>> type(dat) > <type 'numpy.ndarray'> >>>> dat[0:4,1:8] > array([[ 1.00000000e+00, 4.57993000e+01, -9.04651000e+01, > 2.20169400e+02, 4.96037400e+02, 1.79483700e-01, > 5.18537000e+01], > [ 2.00000000e+00, 4.57283000e+01, -9.07861000e+01, > 1.18743620e+03, 3.66480800e+02, 2.52030000e-03, > 7.24100000e-01], > [ 3.00000000e+00, 4.57782000e+01, -9.05021000e+01, > 2.37697700e+02, 4.96037400e+02, 1.53038800e-01, > 4.41661000e+01], > [ 4.00000000e+00, 4.57706000e+01, -9.05811000e+01, > 9.76455100e+02, 4.96037400e+02, 1.04319300e-01, > 3.01000000e+01]]) > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial > Check out the new simplified licensing option that enables unlimited > royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing > server and web deployment. > http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects > _______________________________________________ > rpy-list mailing list > rpy-list@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/rpy-list ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensing option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ rpy-list mailing list rpy-list@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/rpy-list
