[Rd] Expected error with help.search in R 3.2.0

call is the same in both versions. I do not see where `help.search` calls `help`. Tracing help is unrevealing. The first call to `help` throws the error and the call looks exactly like the calls in R 3.1.2 -- David Winsemius Alameda, CA, USA ___

[Rd] foreach hangs when using doMPI on Windows with Microsoft MPI

??I installed Microsoft MPI. Then installed the foreach and Rmpi packages. Then built doMPI from source. mpi.remote.exec works. foreach hangs with the main process and all worker processes idle. I launch my script with mpiexec: "C:\Program Files\Microsoft MPI\Bin\mpiexec" -n 3 "C:\Program

Re: [Rd] we need an exists/get hybrid

All, So that suggests that .GlobalEnv[["X"]] is more efficient than get("X", pos=1L). What about .GlobalEnv[["X"]] <- value, compared to assign("X", value)? Dave On Wed, Dec 3, 2014 at 3:30 PM, Peter Haverty wrote: > Thanks Winston! I'm amazed that "[[" beats calling the .Internal > directly

Fascinating! I tried the comparisons with all.equal(), expecting a description of the difference, but TRUE was returned in both cases. Dave On Wed, Oct 29, 2014 at 3:26 PM, Winston Chang wrote: > I ran into this and found the result very surprising: > > identical( quote({ a }), quote({ a }) )

Re: [Rd] How I() works in a formula

Joris, Basically, the I() function, as it is used in a regression model, allows the user to perform arithmetic operations on a variable that would otherwise be interpreted by the formula. It is not trapped as a special function as Error() is in aov(). There may be other applications where the c

Re: [Rd] Inconsistency in vector printing depending on length

Dominic, Actually it makes perfect sense. When R prints vectors of length less than 9, it does not ever need to print 2 digits for the index. For lengths between 10 and 99, it may need to print an index with 2 digits, therefore, it prints the first index and all single digit indexes with a leadin
