[R] sqldf error only on Unix not Windows

2010-11-01 Thread Alex Bryant
Hello Group,

I am having trouble with the sqldf package on unix.  The same 
code works fine on windows.

Silly Example script:

# Load the package
library(sqldf)

# Use the titanic data set

data(women)
colnames(women)
head(women)

sqldf('select height, count(*) from women where height is not null group by 
weight')

Unix Output and error:

bash-3.00$ R --vanilla  # Load the package
> library(sqldf)
Loading required package: DBI
Loading required package: RSQLite
Loading required package: RSQLite.extfuns
Loading required package: gsubfn
Loading required package: proto
Loading required package: tcltk
Loading Tcl/Tk interface ... done
Loading required package: chron

Box:

I am unable to find any hits on the generated errors which makes me think 
either something is really wrong (resource issues or something) or this is not 
a common use of sqldf??  Is there a better package I should be using?

Thank you very much for your help,

If you only need to retrieve x by referring to x2 and you don`t have
to modify x via x2 then this works:

> x <- Orange
> makeActiveBinding("x2", function() x, .GlobalEnv)
> x$age <- 50
> head(x2)
  Tree age circumference
11  5030
21  5058
31  5087
41  50   115
51  50   120
61  50   142

Hi, for example:

> x <- Orange
> x2 <- x
> x[1,]$age <- 50
> x2[1,]
  Tree age circumference
11 11830

I would like a way for x2 to also reference the modified x data frame without 
having to reassign x2mailto:petr.pi...@precheza.cz]

What does it mean to point to data frame? Seems to me that it is something 
from C+.

You can reference data frame by $ or by square brackets with as many 
variables as you want.

[R] multiple variables pointing to single dataframe?

2010-04-16 Thread Alex Bryant
Hi,  I have a need to have 2 variables point to the same dataframe (d1),  I 
don't want to simply copy the dataframe ( d2<-d1 ) as my understanding is that 
this will create a second dataframe.  Any suggestions on best practice here?

[R] R output to Rich Text Format

2010-03-18 Thread Alex Bryant
Hi,  Does anyone know of an existing package that will output to rtf?  
Something along the lines of pdf(ds,'file.pdf') or write.csv(ds,'file.csv').

Thanks,

[R] R Graphic output files on Solaris 5.10

2010-03-10 Thread Alex Bryant
Hello Folks,  I have a need to generate Graphic output files (gif, jpeg, pdf, 
etc..) on a Solaris Environment, however this environment does not have X11 
setup and setting up X11 would be a last resort if required. I have attempted 
to install GDD and Cairo without success up to this point.   Is there a simple 
way to do this that does not require X11, GDD or Cairo?

[R] Reading sas7bdat files directly

2010-02-04 Thread Alex Bryant
Hi,   I have a need to process (in real-time) a large number of .sas7bdat files 
from within R.  The problem is I don't want to convert these files to .xpt 
(transport) every time.  So just checking if anyone has a (viable) way to read 
.sas7bdat files directly into R?

Thank You.
