Hello John It seems correct to me too but in my R console it seems to not be working Here there is what I did: i copied the statement on one row (leaving and removing the final useless semi colomn) i tried to execute it in the R console (in order to open my R console I simply opened a terminal window on my ubuntu machine and I typed "R") when I click "enter" the inserted statement doesn't not run...I simply see the cursor on a new line and this new line starts with "+"
Here there is a little stack of what I see on my terminal: , 1, 1, 2, 2, 0, 3, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 17, 2, 2, 0, 2, 0, 2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 3, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 7, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 3, 0, 0, 2, 4, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 2, 1, 0, 4, 2, 0, 0, 1, 3, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 2, 3, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 3, 3, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 2, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 2, 0, 2, 0, 3, 0, 4, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 3, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 3, 0, 6, 0, 0, 0, 0, 3, 0, 0, 0, 2, 5, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 2, 0, 1, 2, 0, 0, 7, 0, 0, 2, 0, 2, 2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 2, 0, 8, 0, 0, 5, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 3, 0, 2, 0, 0, 0, 2, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 2, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 2, 0, 0, 1, 0, 2, 0, 0, 3, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 9, 3, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 3, 0, 0, 2, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 2, 6, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 4, 0, 0, 2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 2, 0, 1, 0, 0, 6, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 2, 6, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 2, 0, 7, 0, 1, 2, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 5, 0, 1, 0, 0, 2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 5, 1, 0, 1, 2, 0, 0, 1, 2, 0, 1, 0, 2, 0, 1, 2, 7, 1, 2, 0, 0, 0, 5, 0, 4, 0)) + + + + + Each time i click enter i go on a new line starting with "+" Then if i start in tying some character I get an error like this: + + + q + + q Errore: unexpected symbol in: " q" Sometimes this error (Errore: unexpected symbol in:) appears in the statement execution Here there are my sessionInfo() result: > sessionInfo() R version 2.14.1 (2011-12-22) Platform: i686-pc-linux-gnu (32-bit) locale: [1] LC_CTYPE=it_IT.UTF-8 LC_NUMERIC=C [3] LC_TIME=it_IT.UTF-8 LC_COLLATE=it_IT.UTF-8 [5] LC_MONETARY=it_IT.UTF-8 LC_MESSAGES=it_IT.UTF-8 [7] LC_PAPER=C LC_NAME=C [9] LC_ADDRESS=C LC_TELEPHONE=C [11] LC_MEASUREMENT=it_IT.UTF-8 LC_IDENTIFICATION=C attached base packages: [1] stats graphics grDevices utils datasets methods base I really don't know why this happens....above all because it seems to me a very very simple statement...
