Re: [Rd] Check for protection (was: table() and as.character() performance for logical values)

For a long-term horizon, would it help R developers to use a naming convention? Perhaps, varName_PROT, or the inverse varName_UNPROT? Eventually, teach some linter about that? On Fri, Apr 11, 2025 at 10:40 AM Duncan Murdoch wrote: > On a tangent from the main topic of this thread: sometimes (es

Re: [Rd] range() for Date and POSIXct could respect `finite = TRUE`

A tiny nit-pick: Seems to me that end date = NA would mean the event has not yet ended, whilst Inf would mean that the event is known to never terminate, ie: an eternal fact, or physical law. On Fri, Apr 28, 2023 at 10:12 AM Davis Vaughan via R-devel < r-devel@r-project.org> wrote: > Hi all, > >

Re: [Rd] Bug Report: read.table with UTF-8 encoded file imports infinity symbol as Integer 8

Windows Notepad prefixes UTF-8 files with a Byte Order Mark (\UFEFF). Per https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte_order_mark, this is permitted in UTF-8, but not required. I suppose that there are other Windows programs which do likewise (in addition to Excel and Notepad). "The Unicode Standard permits

Does Windows allow creating a symlink to "C:/Program Files"? If so, R could install into the conventional Windows location, but use the symlink for all its access, yes? Windows 10 command = mklink On Fri, Dec 8, 2017 at 11:14 AM, Zach Bjornson wrote: > Thanks for fixing this! > > For what it's

The R signon banner includes this statement: Natural language support but running in an English locale Should that not say 'National' instead of 'Natural'? Meaning that LOCALE support is enabled, not that the interface understands human language? Please ignore this and forgive me if this is
