Richard-- Nice. If I understand your code correctly, in the line ddm <- matrix("", (n+2) %/% nc, nc) I could instead use ddm <- matrix("", (n + nc - 1) %/% nc, nc) for generalizability, as I may have to increase nc as the list of words grows ever longer. Thanks everyone. Several good suggesti

I think this is cuter, and it is a hair faster. n <- length(dd) ddm <- matrix("", (n+2) %/% nc, nc) ddm[1:n] <- dd Rich > system.time(for (i in 1:1) { + add <- nc - (length(dd) %% nc) + dd2 <- c(dd, rep("", add)) + ddm <- matrix(dd2, ncol = nc) + }) user system elapsed 0.064 0.100

Duncan et al I tried to redefine print.data.frame the way you suggested, but I misplaced the ellipsis by putting it at the end of the function definition instead of immediately following the name of the data frame. Works now. Thanks! > On 2018-06-05, at 12:39, Duncan Murdoch wrote: > > On

Re: [R] Printing left-justified character strings

2018-06-05 Thread David L Carlson
I think the OP does not realize that head() and tail() do not print anything. They extract the first or last values/rows and if they are not assigned to an object, they automatically go to print(). Redefining print.data.frame would also fix that problem. David L. Carlson Department of Anthropo

[R] printing an arbitrary-length character vector in columns on a page of a pdf report

2018-06-05 Thread Christopher W Ryan
I'm writing code for a recurring report, using an R --> Sweave --> pdflatex workflow. It includes a character vector of short words that I would like to display compactly, in columns on a page, rather than one word per line, which would waste a lot of space. The vector of words will increase unpred

These are almost always false positives. The checks are based on checksumming and sometimes a perfectly innocent .exe will match the checksum of some virus/malware. The .exe is rebuilt nightly and changes slightly between builds, so you may want just retry after a day or so. (The AV vendors are
