Better still, and in order to make things more autoMAGIC so that we can use features like update.packages(), could the 'make install' case be conditional on a) the 'Type = Frontend' choice in DESCRIPTION _and_ b) a top-level script frontend-install in the package? So instead of an user the user had to choose, could we just run this for her a la if test -f ./frontend-install; then ./frontend-install ## alternatively, run ${MAKE} install if test ${?} -ne 0; then error "make install failed for package '${pkg_name}'" do_exit_on_error fi Thirdly, I don't really see why we can't just run 'make install' unconditionally. That may need a minor patch to gnomeGUI to move the (somewhat non-standard) 'install' target out of the 'make all' dependencies. I'd be happy to work on a complete patch that also updates the discussion in the R Extensions manual, R Admin manual and the INSTALL help text, plus whereever else INSTALL is documented.

Re: [Rd] slot(obj, "nosuch") documentation question

But then the last paragraph in that same section seems to suggest otherwise. Currently the @ extraction operator and slot function do no checking, neither that object has a formal class nor that name is a valid slot name for the class. (They will extract the attribute of the given name if it exists from any R object.) The replacement forms do check (at least if check=TRUE). Are these two paragraphs not in partial conflict with each other? No, but a little more detail in the documentation would have been helpful. See my previous thread on this list: the methods documentation is getting a major rewrite at the moment. What's guaranteed is that [EMAIL PROTECTED] <- 1 will be disallowed if "b" is not a valid slot name or the right hand side is not coerceable to the appropriate class. So as long as nobody cheats, only valid slot names will be found and not finding a slot of an invalid name generates an error. However. For various reasons, slots in R were implemented as attributes, and in the immediate future seem likely to remain so. And, for now, there is no guarantee that code has not gone around assigning attributes with other names. The access function @ or slot() doesn't go off to the class definition to check the name, so once such an attribute is inserted, it looks like a "slot". But you still will get an error assigning a value, because that computation _does_ check validity. All this is in pursuit of efficiency, arguing that slot access tends to happen more often than replacement. The following extension of your example illustrates: > setClass("foobar", representation=list(a="numeric")) [1] "foobar" > foobar <- new("foobar", a=5) > [EMAIL PROTECTED] [1] 5 > [EMAIL PROTECTED] Error: no slot of name "b" for this object of class "foobar" > attr(foobar, "b") <- 10 > [EMAIL PROTECTED] [1] 10 > [EMAIL PROTECTED] <- 1 Error in checkSlotAssignment(object, name, value) : "b" is not a slot in class "foobar" I had initially expected (my initial bottom-up quick glance only read last paragraph) to get NULL from invalid slotname. This is in reference to writing method that might be passed an object created by previous version of software, and new slots were added to class in later revisions. For such situations, is the norm then to do "slotNames(obj) %in% " prior to accessing any slotname from extended class? Dangerous practice. I presume what happens is that objects are saved, then restored after the class has been redefined. Restoring the old object creates an invalid object of the class. You really should follow the restore by "fixing" any out of date objects. It would be nice if R had versioning software that did some of this automatically, although in general it's a tough problem. Perhaps other users who have encountered the problem of revising classes might comment on what their practice is. Managing changing class definitions is an interesting and important topic.

Managing changing > class definitions is an interesting and important topic. The not completely satisfactory solution in the Bioconductor package Biobase is classes Versioned (a 'mix-in' class to provide versioning information and dispatch) and Versions (to represent version strings), plus generics isVersioned, isCurrent, classVersion, classVersion<- for accessing Versioned, and updateObject for providing a common interface to the update operation. Versioned is a class with slot .__classVersion__ that the developer populates with a vector of Version objects. isCurrent is meant to be the main entry point for assessing version, and compares the class version of the object with the class version recorded in the class definition. It also grandfathers in instances that existed before Versioned itself was added to the class by checking that the object has its S4 bit set, and that the instance is actually versioned. The developer is expected to write updateObject methods that know how to update from previous versions to the current version, and callNextMethod to delegate responsibility to inherited methods (including a default that tries to create a new instance by copying slots from the current object into a newly created instance). There are several complexities. isCurrent has to make decisions about the current-ness of slot content (much as validObject does). Inheritance means that only a portion of the class hierarchy might be out-of-date so length(Versions) > 1 is the norm. Methods are not associated with classes, so in a sense and for reproducibility 'isCurrent' might mean that the object was created with the same version of R and relevant packages as are currently in use. updateObject would really like to have a semantic and method dispatch like validObject, where each updateObject method takes responsibility for updating only the portion of the class that the method is responsible for. There are a number of aspects that are unsatisfactory about the implementation. The developer has to manage class version numbering (there's no hashing, say, of the class definition to automatically register a new class; hashing is more complicated than at first sight because components of the class can be out of date), including an awkward way of capturing versions of inherited classes. Out-of-date objects are not detected when loaded, but typically when a method fails (and then the user writes to the bioc mailing list and is told to use updateObject; key methods in Biobase check for class version, but this is too expensive for every operation and many packages outside Biobase make use of Biobase classes without checking version information). Writing updateObject methods is challenging, in part because updateObject uses 'standardGeneric' for dispatch and the developer has to manage both updating the object and dispatching to appropriate 'next' methods. >From the user perspective, updateObject seems to have been quite successful -- it provides a clean way for the user to solve a problem, once it's been diagnosed. Improvements on an iteration of this might (a) develop a default updateObject method that 'did the right thing' more reliably, much as 'initialize,ANY-method' does. In fact, the current updateObject,ANY-method does seem to be moderately successful at this. (b) generalize the 'validObject' dispatch model and use that to more clearly delineate the responsibilities of updateObject methods (which currently have to be update their part of the object and dispatch to the 'next' method and slots, if appropriate). (c) check object version on load, which would require a change to R itself, or some unique discipline on the part of objects from the package.

[Rd] eigenvector dimname convention?
What are reasonable conventions for dimnames for eigenvectors? The standard 'eigen' function discards dimnames. If a matrix X is symmetric (and rownames = colnames), it seems more sensible to assign rownames(eigen(X)$vectors) <- rownames(X). The eigenvalues seem different, so I'm inclined to assign names like ev1, ev2, ..., to the eigenvectors and use those names for the columns of eigen(...)$vectors. However, this analysis does not apply if rownames != colnames. What should be done in that case? The 'solve' function uses a convention that might help here: tst <- matrix(1:4, 2, dimnames=list(LETTERS[1:2], letters[3:4])) > tst c d A 1 3 B 2 4 solve(tst) AB c -2 1.5 d 1 -0.5 Tentative conclusion: If rownames != colnames (or the matrix is not symmetric), then dimnames(eigen(X)$vectors) = dimnames(X). That's because X = (vectors %*% values %*% solve(vectors)). If desired, the eigenvalues can be assigned names matching colnames(X). Does this make sense? I ask, because I'm writing a function 'EIGEN' as a wrapper for 'eigen' that tries to preserve dimnames. This analysis suggests that how dimnames are assigned is at least partly a matter of convention rather than mathematics.

[Rd] Issue with NA value and Octave compatibility
Dear R developers, I'm an Octave developer in the process of implementing a single precision type in Octave and I have an issue with the NA value. The choice of NA value in Octave was made a few years back so that the high word of the NA value was 0x7ff0 and the low word was 0x07A2 for compatibility with R and to ease any possible issue with the exchange of data files between Octave and R. However, now that I'm in the process of implementing the single precision type I have a problem with this choice for the NA value as the above when cast to a float results in the loss of the 0x7A2 value creating a positive Infinity in IEE754, and so conversion of the NA values between double and float with the above value does not work. I have several possible choices of how to treat this, but as the reason for the choice of Octave's NA value was made for compatibility with R, the choice I'll make might very well be determined by how the R developers react to any changes that Octave makes in this direction. I can't realistically wrap the double and float types in Octave and overload the assignment operators to handle the assignment of a float to a double and visa versa as this would completely replace the underlying data types in Octave. Its also impossible to trap everywhere where a double might be assigned to a float and special case NA values as there are just too many places that might occur. I'm therefore assuming that I have to replace Octave's internal representation of the NA value to allow easy conversion of the NA value between double and floats. This can be done by replacing the NA value with one that has zeros in the lower 19 bits of the mantissa of the double, so that the cast from a double to float and visa versa works correctly. For example using 0x7FF840F4 and 0x4000 for the low and high word of the double NA value. and 0x7FC207A2 for the float NA value works. However then I have an issue of exchange of NA values with R and with older versions of Octave. Its easy enough to check for old NA values in files when reading and alter them to the new NA values. So forward compatibility with older versions of Octave and from R to Octave would be ok. However, the reverse is not true. Actually saving the with the old NA value is equally possible and would allow full compatible with older versions of Octave and with R. The downside is that there are many places I'd have to make a copy of the data when saving to allow this (for example saving to HDF files), and so I'd prefer not to have to do this if possible. As backwards compatibility is the smaller concern and self correcting with time, if R was to also accept the an additional possible NA value such as 0x7FF840F4/0x4000, at least when loading files then compatibility of the NA value between Octave and R could be maintained and I wouldn't have to pay the penalty of making a copy of the data to treat the NA values. Would the R developers be willing to make such a change in R? If not I will maintain the R compatible NA value in Octave's output and pay the performance penalty within Octave for this. In any case if R intends at some point to support a single precision type you will come across the same issue.

[Rd] R and Gnumeric
Hi, I just read the "Embedding R in Gnumeric" idea at http://www.r-project.org/SoC08/ideas.html. On my side, I intend to add as many statistics related plot types to the current gnumeric charting engine as possible. We already have boxplots and partial support for histograms. My immediate plans are to finish the histogram code and add probability plots (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=500168) during the summer if time permits (importing some code from R). For the future, I see two options: either add all necessary plot types to the gnumeric charting engine or embedding R charts directly using either a new SheetObject class or the goffice component system (which would allow inserting these charts in abiword as well). One other totally unrelated thing. We got recently a bug report about an incorrect R squared in gnumeric regression code (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=534659). R (version 2.7.0) give the same result as Gnumeric as can be seen below: > mydata <- read.csv(file="data.csv",sep=",") > mydata X Y 1 1 2 2 2 4 3 3 5 4 4 8 5 5 0 6 6 7 7 7 8 8 8 9 9 9 10 > summary(lm(mydata$Y~mydata$X)) Call: lm(formula = mydata$Y ~ mydata$X) Residuals: Min 1Q Median 3Q Max -5.8889 0.2444 0.5111 0.7111 2.9778 Coefficients: Estimate Std.
