[R] A function taken out of its original environment performs more slowly.

2013-08-17 Thread Xiao He
Hi dear R-users, I encountered an interesting pattern. Take for example the function combn(), I copied and pasted the function definition and saved it as a new function named combn2() (see the end of this email). As it turned out, combn2() seems to be substantially slower than the original

Does this work? Probably not the fastest, but I think it does the job. foo-function(x){ temp=x[x0] if(length(temp)=3) sum(temp[1:3]) else sum(temp) set.seed(2) mat-matrix(sample(0:4, 25, replace=T, prob=c(1/2,rep(1/8,4)), ncol=5) mat # [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [,5] #[1,]012

That's a good one, Using cumsum + rowsum would definitely be faster, On Tue, May 21, 2013 at 6:40 AM, José Verhoeven j...@memo2.nl wrote: Thank you, that really worked. Actually received an even shorter version: rowSums((t(apply(D 0, 1, cumsum)) = 3) * D) 2013/5/21 Xiao He

[R] How many decimal places of information does R actually use in computation?

2013-05-20 Thread Xiao He
Dear R-users: Hi, I read here ( http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2287616/controlling-digits-in-r) that R is only accurate up to the 15th decimal place, despite the fact that if you choose to display more decimal places, it will. I wonder if R uses the information beyond the 15th decimal place

Dear R users, I posted a couple of questions and got no response, so I am giving it another shot. I ran an experiment with a TWO-WAY within subject design. A sample dataset is in http://www-scf.usc.edu/~hex/data.txt I already ran ANOVA by using the following formula: aov(RT~Factor1*Factor2 +

Dear R people, I have a couple of questions about post-doc analyses for 2 by 2 within subjects ANOVA. I conducted a psycholinguistic study that combined a 2 by 2 design and a latin square design. Specifically, I had 32 items each of which generated 4 conditions. Participants saw each of the 32
