[R] Error: package 'lsei' is not installed for 'arch=i386'
Hi guys, I am having problem loading a package that I have installed. I have searched some old thread but they were no help in terms of solving the problem. I uninstalled every possible component of R and installed R 2.13 and followed the R-faqs installation steps. Then I installed the package (lsei) from local zip file which was installed successfully but can not be loaded and returns the error message as titled. The zip file can be downloaded below, it used to work fine on my old version of R (I think it was 2.9). http://www.stat.auckland.ac.nz/~yongwang/ I've check .libPaths() as some suggested and remove the copy in the first directory but that was the only copy that I have on the machine. Can someone give me a direction on how I can solve this problem? Thanks in advance.

Re: [R] Strplit code
Pardon my ignorance, but why is the do.call necessary? why not just execute
the rbind function? What's the advantage in putting it in a do.call "wrapper"?

[R] subsetting without losing the attributes
Hi,
How do I use the subset function without losing the attributes?
For example,
test.df <- data.frame(a = rnorm(100), b = runif(100), c = rexp(100))
attr(test.df[, 1], "units") <- c("cm")
attr(test.df[, 2], "units") <- c("kg")
attr(test.df[, 3], "units") <- c("ha")
## We want this behavior
str(test.df[, "a", drop = FALSE])
## But not the behavior of subset
str(subset(test.df, select = a, drop = FALSE))
## Whic is equivalent to
str(test.df[TRUE, "a", drop = FALSE])
Cheers,
M

The second column is in increasing order within each group. My actual data will be of size 10^6 by 100 so I am hoping to solve this by a simple function. Thank you very much for your help.

Re: [R] gamma distribution in rugarch package
I don't think it is provided and gamma is neither a special case of ghyp nor ged. Is there a reason for you to use the gamma distribution? The gamma distribution only has support for positive number and thus impossible for stock return.

Re: [R] The Future of R | API to Public Databases
The WDI package on CRAN already provide access to the World Bank data through their API, we also have an inhouse package for FAOSTAT here at FAO but it is not mature enough to be released on CRAN yet. Not sure about other international organisations but I do agree that it would be nice if there is a package which would make these data more readily to R users. On 13/01/12 22:58, Sarah Goslee wrote: R is Open Source. You're welcome to write tools, and submit your package to CRAN. I think some part of this has been done, based on questions to the list asking about those parts. Personally, I've been using S-Plus and then R for 18 years, and never required data from any of them. Which doesn't make it not important, but suggests that public databases aren't the be-all and end-all for R use. Sarah On Fri, Jan 13, 2012 at 4:14 PM, Benjamin Weber wrote: Dear R Users - R is a wonderful software package. CRAN provides a variety of tools to work on your data. But R is not apt to utilize all the public databases in an efficient manner. I observed the most tedious part with R is searching and downloading the data from public databases and putting it into the right format. I could not find a package on CRAN which offers exactly this fundamental capability. Imagine R is the unified interface to access (and analyze) all public data in the easiest way possible. That would create a real impact, would put R a big leap forward and would enable us to see the world with different eyes. There is a lack of a direct connection to the API of these databases, to name a few: - Eurostat - OECD - IMF - Worldbank - UN - FAO - data.gov - ... The ease of access to the data is the key of information processing with R. How can we handle the flow of information noise? R has to give an answer to that with an extensive API to public databases. I would love your comments and ideas as a contribution in a vital discussion.
