• confused about variables in bash

  - by gappy

  I know that variables in bash have no type, but am confused about the value they are assigned. The following simple script works fine in bash #!/bin/bash tail -n +2 /cygdrive/c/workdir\ \(newco\,\ LLC\)/workfile.txt > \ /cygdrive/c/workdir\ \(newco\,\ LLC\)/workfile2.txt However, the following does not #!/bin/bash tmpdir=/cygdrive/c/workdir\ \(newco\,\ LLC\) tail -n +2 $tmpdir/workfile.txt > $tmpdir/workfile2.txt Is there an explanation for this behavior?

• Exception handling in R

  - by gappy

  Does anyone have examples/tutorials of exception handling in R? The official documentation is very terse.

• Expert R users, what's in your .Rprofile?...

  - by gappy

  This question is maybe a little too cute, but I have always found startup profile files of other people both useful and instructive about the language. Moreover, while I have some customization for bash and vim, I have nothing for R. For example, one thing I always wanted is different colors for input and output text in a window terminal, and maybe even syntax highlighting.

• mystified by qr.Q(): what is an orthonormal matrix in "compact" form?

  - by gappy

  R has a qr() function, which performs QR decomposition using either LINPACK or LAPACK (in my experience, the latter is 5% faster). The main object returned is a matrix "qr" that contains in the upper triangular matrix R (i.e. R=qr[upper.tri(qr)]). So far so good. The lower triangular part of qr contains Q "in compact form". One can extract Q from the qr decomposition by using qr.Q(). I would like to find the inverse of qr.Q(). In other word, I do have Q and R, and would like to put them in a "qr" object. R is trivial but Q is not. The goal is to apply to it qr.solve(), which is much faster than solve() on large systems.

• Problem installing packages

  - by gappy

  I am installing Matrix on a Linux x86_64 multicore system. I receive a message: Warning message: In install.packages("Matrix", dependencies = TRUE) : package 'Matrix' is not available Sure enough, there are not many details on package troubleshooting. It appears that Matrix is available for x86_64, but it's not available in any repository. How come?

• Is there an R equivalent of the pythonic "if __name__ == "__main__": main()" ?

  - by gappy

  The title says it all. The objective is to have two simple ways to source some code, say func.R, containing a function. Calling R CMD BATCH func.R initializes the function and evaluates is. Within a session, issuing source("func.R") simply initializes the function. Any idea?
