Re: [R] Count data in random Forest
This is R-**Help**, not R- **we give you all the answers.** Please read and follow the posting guide linked below for what sorts of questions are appropriate for this list and what you should include when asking them. Incidentally, there are several packages in R that do (versions of) random forests. You can read about at least some of them in the **Random Forests** section of the Machine Learning Task View here: https://CRAN.R-project.org/view=MachineLearning Many R packages have, besides extensive Help pages, so-called "vignettes", tutorials that help you use them. If available, you should consult these before posting here. Cheers, Bert -- Bert On Thu, May 18, 2023 at 11:00 AM Suriya Kannan wrote: > > Respected Sir > Good Evening.

Only if the argument 'x' is evaluated during the function call AFAIK.
If it is not, due to lazy evaluation rules, then no assignment takes
place.

After exact matching on names comes partial matching on names and then
positional matching. If after these three rounds there are still
actual arguments left over, they are assigned to "..." (if it exist as
formal argument).
So under the usual rules of how actual arguments
are passed to formal arguments in Federico's call the argument
"sexsnp[i] = fisher.test(table(data[,3], data[,i + 38]))$p" should be
assigned to the formal argument "expr" of tryCatch() and "error =
function(e) print(NA))" should be absorbed by "...".
But it seems, as "=" has a different meaning in function call, the
expression passed to the "expr" formal argument is not allowed to
contain a "=". Not sure why. :-)
I guess that the intended use is actually:
R> for(i in 1:1750){sexsnp[i] = tryCatch(fisher.test(table(data[,3], data[,i +
38]))$p, error = function(e) print(NA))}
I.e. tryCatch() returns the result of the evaluated expression (if
successful, otherwise the result of an error handler) and that result
can be assigned. It is not expected the that expression contains an
assignment operation. But I am just guessing. :)
Cheers,
Berwin

... or just put the R expression inside curly brackets, e.g.
tryCatch({
sexsnp[i] = fisher.test(table(data[,3], data[,i+38]))$p
}, error=function(e) print(NA))
Exercise: Compare

$a
[1] 2
with

[[1]]
[1] 2
and

$b
[1] 2
BTW, note how the latter two assigned a <- 2 to the global environment.

It is not just tryCatch but any function. In function calls the "=" is used to assign actual arguments to formal arguments, not for assignments. That is why "plot(fm <- lm(eruptions ~ waiting, faithful)" works but "plot(fm = lm(eruptions ~ waiting, faithful)" does not. The only universal assignment operator, AFAIK, is "<-". Well, and "->". Long time ago "_" used to be one too, but that is long ago. The usual advice was that if you do not know when "=" does not work as assignment operator then always use "<-" for assignments. :) The final thing you have to take care of that in function calls you have to be sure that the argument is actually evaluated (R has lazy evaluation) to ensure that the assignment is actually executed.

Re: [R] suprising behaviour of tryCatch()
Because `<-` and `=` do different things (and I am one of the old
fossils that wish they had not been confounded).
`fun(x <- expr)` Assigns the value of `expr` to the variable `x` in
the frame/environment that `fun` is called from.
`fun(x = expr)` Assigns the value of `expr`to the variable `x` in the
frame/environment created for and used by `fun` subject to the rules
of argument matching.
These are very different (see documentation/tutorials on variable
scoping if you do not already understand how different these are).
As a simple analogy, think of a function like the refrigerator in your house.
refrigerator( topshelf = bottle ) will put the bottle on the top
shelf inside of the refrigerator
refrigerator( topshelf <- bottle ) will put the bottle on the top
shelf in the same room that the refrigerator is in (but not in the
fridge itself)
When you run the code with `<-` it, then the ith element of the global
variable `sexsnp` is assigned the p-value. When you run the version
with `=` then R tries to find an argument to `tryCatch` that matches
(possibly partially) `sexsnp[i]` and gives the error because it does
not find a match (not sure why it is not handled by `...`, but
tryCatch may be parsed special, or non-legal argument names on the RHS
of `-` may be checked).
Unfortunately allowing `=` in certain common places to mimic `<-`
hides this difference and leads to these types of errors when the
difference is important.

The '=' has a context-dependent meaning - in a function call it is used to
name arguments and outside of a function call it is used for assignments.
This has nothing to do with tryCatch in particular. E.g.,
> f <- function(x) x + 100
> f(y <- 10)
[1] 110
> y
[1] 10
> f(y = 20)
Error in f(y = 20) : unused argument (y = 20)
> y
[1] 10
I recommend starting to use <- for assignments again (or not doing
assignments inside of function calls).

[R] suprising behaviour of tryCatch()
Hello,
I run a fisher.test() in a loop, with the issue that some of the data will not
be useable. To protect the loop I used tryCatch but:
sexsnp = rep(NA, 1750)
for(i in 1:1750){tryCatch(sexsnp[i] = fisher.test(table(data[,3], data[,i +
38]))$p, error = function(e) print(NA))}
Error: unexpected '=' in "for(i in 1:1750){tryCatch(sexsnp[i] ="
But this works:
for(i in 1:1750){tryCatch(sexsnp[i] <- fisher.test(table(data[,3], data[,i +
38]))$p, error = function(e) print(NA))}
[1] NA
[1] NA
[1] NA
The only difference is the use of �=� or �<-� to assign the p value of the
fisher test to the vector. I stopped using �<-� eons ago so it took a bit to
figure out.
Tested on R 4.1.2 on ContOS 8 , and on R 4.3.0 on a M1 mac with the same
result. I�d be obliged if someone can explain why tryCatch assigns items with
�<-� and not �=�.

Are you using a GUI frontend? mclapply() relies on the fork() system call, which is tricky to get right in a process where other threads may exist at the same time: when a process calls fork(), the child process ends up with the same contents of virtual memory but no other threads at all. If a thread was holding a lock when the process was forked, the lock will never be released in the child process, leaving it stuck. Depending on how you're running R, it may be threading issues or something else. More information may be obtained by looking at traceback() after you interrupt mclapply() (easy, but low information: did you interrupt selectChildren() or some other function?) and attaching a C debugger to the child process when you become sure it's stuck (hard, requires additional preparation such as installing debugging symbols). -- Best regards, Ivan __ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
