An ancient thesis I’ve long admired the look of publications generated using the R bookdown package, and thought it would be fun and educational to publish one myself.

Splits are generally reported in one of two formats, cumulative or lap. When working with data I find lap format to be more useful, but what’s most useful is to have all splits in the same format.

Yes, this post condenses 50+ hours of learning into a 15 minute tutorial.  Read ’em and weep.  (That is, you read while I weep.) OK.  For the last week I’ve been learning how to call C code as documented in previous posts:  Calling C code “Hello World!”, .Call(“hello”) and Calling C code with Rcpp.  Now comes that task that … Read more

In two previous posts we described how R can call C code with .C() and the more complex yet more robust option of calling C code with .Call().  Here we will describe how the Rcpp package can be used to greatly simplify your C code without forcing you to become expert in C++. First off, kudos to Dirk Eddelbuettel and Romain … Read more

In an introductory post on R APIs to C code, Calling C Code ‘Hello World!’, we explored the .C() function with some ‘Hello World!’ baby steps.  In this post we will make a leap forward by implementing the same functionality using the .Call() function. Is .Call() better than .C()? A heated but friendly conversation took place … Read more

One of the reasons that R has so much functionality is that people have incorporated a lot of academic code written in C, C++, Fortran and Java into various packages.  Libraries written in these languages are often both robust and fast.  If you are using R to support people in a particular field, you may … Read more

With enough effort it is possible to fit a square peg into a round hole.  But we have all learned — sometimes more than once — that it is much easier if peg and hole have the same shape.

Operational systems, by definition, need to work without human input. Systems are considered “operational” after they have ben thoroughly tested and shown to work properly with a variety of input. However, no software is perfect and no real-world system operates with 100% availability or 100% consistent input. Things occasionally go wrong – perhaps intermittently. In … Read more

Letting the computer automatically find groupings in data is incredibly powerful and is at the heart of “data mining” and “machine learning”. One of the most widely used methods for clustering data is k-means clustering. Unfortunately, k-means clustering can fail spectacularly as in the example below. Centroid-based clustering algorithms work on multi-dimensional data by partitioning data points … Read more
