[R] connecting to remote database using RMySQL

2010-11-05 Thread Jan Theodore Galkowski
Apologies if this is the wrong place to ask. I'm not aware of a mail list devoted to database interfaces. Please direct me if so. I am trying to use TSMySQL. It loads RMySQL, and apparent the CRAN version has an .onLoad script which seeks out the local MySQL server. If that fails, the package

[R] Rsolnp examples

2010-10-28 Thread Jan Theodore Galkowski
I'm interested in the Rsolnp package. For their primary function solnp, one example is given, and there is a reference to unit tests. Anyone know where these can be found? Also, Rsolnp is used in a few other packages (e.g., depmixS4), but I cannot seem to find source illustrating its call

Re: [R] na.strings and the like; suspending interpretation of NA

2009-08-04 Thread Jan Theodore Galkowski
The magic I was looking for is to pass as.is=TRUE to sqlQuery of RODBC. The reference to read.table is a little oblique, but with that, all works fine. An education! :-) Thanks much, Jan On Tue, 04 Aug 2009 09:05:05 +0200, Peter Dalgaard p.dalga...@biostat.ku.dk said: Jan Theodore

[R] na.strings and the like; suspending interpretation of NA

2009-08-03 Thread Jan Theodore Galkowski
Can someone point me to the proper place in the documentation or on the Wiki where I can learn how to get R to stop interpreting the string NA as something special? I have a table in a database which contains (among other things) country codes and continent codes. The standard set of two-letter

[R] exporting list of installed packages for import on another system?

2009-07-14 Thread Jan Theodore Galkowski
Is it possible to export a list of installed packages from WinXP, and use that export to import the same set of packages on Ubuntu (Jaunty)? No doubt there is custom code that could be written, but I wonder if R 2.9.1 has anything built it to do that? Is it as simple as moving something like

[R] recovering value of scalar from false color map and image

2008-10-18 Thread Jan Theodore Galkowski
I have a JPEG map of temperature data, coded using a given legend where blues are cooler and reds hotter. Is there any preexisting R magic or package which might let me recover the value of the scalar quantity so represented given the RGB values at each point in the picture? After processing,

[R] availability of R packages svLab? denstrip?

2008-08-29 Thread Jan Theodore Galkowski
I'm interested in the R packages svLab and the recently announced denstrip. For svLab, I've seen a PDF from 2003 describing it, and at least one paper or description having used it. I could not find it in the download list of packages within R or on CRAN, however. Did it get subsumed or
