[Rd] unique(1:3,nmax=1) freezes R

2013-10-30 Thread Helske Jouni
Dear all, I was playing around with factor contrasts, and found the argument nmax on function factor. When using nmax=1, R froze completely, and I had to close it from task manager. After some debugging, I found that the problem is actually in unique-function, where the internal unique function

[Rd] Where to drop a python script?

2013-10-30 Thread Jonathan Greenberg
R-developers: I have a small python script that I'd like to include in an R package I'm developing, but I'm a bit unclear about which subfolder it should go in. R will be calling the script via a system() call. Thanks! --j -- Jonathan A. Greenberg, PhD Assistant Professor Global Environmental

[Rd] Huge performance difference between implicit and explicit print

2013-10-30 Thread Hadley Wickham
Hi all, Can anyone help me understand why an implicit print (i.e. just typing df at the console), is so much slower than an explicit print (i.e. print(df)) in the example below? I see the difference in both Rstudio and in a terminal. # Construct large df as quickly as possible dummy <- 1:18e6 df

Hadley, As far as I can tell from a quick look, it is because implicit printing uses a different mechanism which does a fair bit more work. >From comments in print.c in the R sources: * print.default() -> do_printdefault (with call tree below) * * auto-printing -> PrintValueEnv *

The old convention was that it went in the exec/ directory, but as you can see at http://cran.at.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-devel/R-exts.html#Non_002dR-scripts-in-packages it can be in inst/anyName/. A minor convenience of exec/ is that the directory has the same name in source and when insta
