Re: [R] Rscript, hashbang, and arguments

This might be off base, but would using --args help? It means "ignore everything else, Mr. R executable". However you can still parse it within the R environment. I use something like this in my startup file (.site file): if("--args" %in% commandArgs()){ i=grep("--args", commandArgs())

As much as I love R, there are still the occasional shortcomings. I would love to find a solution to the "save as..." problem. Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Open any version of he R GUI in Windows 2. Choose "File > Open" from the menu 3. Open a script that is in a different directo

Re: [R] Variable names AS variable names?

Hello Noah, Many of these suggestions are already good, (and possibly better than you think, depending on your level of experience). Using lists helps a lot, because the elements of the list have easily accessible names, and you can query the nodes to determine how many variables you have in each

[R] The L Word

I've been wondering what L means in the R computing context, and was wondering if someone could point me to a reference where I could read about it, or tell me what it's called so that I can search for it myself. (L by itself is a little too general for a search term). I encounter it in strange p

[R] Populate a list / recursively set list values to NA

Hello all, Maybe I'm being thick, but I was trying to figure out a simple way to create a list with the same dimension of another list, but populated with NA values. masterlist = list( aa=list( a=matrix(rnorm(100),10,10), b=matrix(rnorm(130)
