I am trying to use is_installed() function in order to see if my MASS package is installed or not? However, I get the following ERROR message that is_installed function not found...
Why is that? My R version is 4.0.2...
Use rlang::is_installed but more easily (and this is what that function does anyway) use requireNamespace(x, quietly = TRUE) where x is the package name.

I am trying to use the function accumcomp.long in the Biodiversity.R package in order to adjust my species accumulation curves in ggplot.
However, calling the function accumcomp.long gives me an error, suggesting that this function perhaps does no longer exists.
accum.long1 <- accumcomp.long(Accum.1, ci=NA, label.freq=5)
Error in accumcomp.long(Accum.1, ci = NA, label.freq = 5) :
could not find function "accumcomp.long"
The function BiodiversityR::accumcomp.long
returns
Error: 'accumcomp.long' is not an exported object from 'namespace:BiodiversityR'
I am not certain whether this is an issue with the package, the way the package is loaded into my R space, or perhaps unrelated to the package simply the format of my data.
My community and environment files are of dataframe class. I have tried loading them as .csv files as well as .rda files, but the error remains.
??accumcomp.long
renders "No results found".
I am using R version 3.5.3 (2019-03-11)
Any suggestions as to what else I could try?
Thanks in advance!
I re-installed the package BiodiversityR and included force = T (as per this thread https://community.rstudio.com/t/could-not-find-function-error-even-though-fun-is-in-namespace-and-has-an-rd-file/91243). I then reloaded the package. I am not sure what force = T does, but the accumcomp.long function now works.
I'm quite new to R and I got an assignment that includes a sourcecode.
Part of the source code includes the following line:
library(preprocessCore)
Then I have in my source code a definition of the following function:
quantile.normalize.raw.gtex <- function(edata.mat)
{
norm_edata = normalize.quantiles(as.matrix(edata.mat))
rownames(norm_edata) = rownames(edata.mat)
colnames(norm_edata) = colnames(edata.mat)
return(norm_edata)
}
Finally, I have an object being initialized to the output of this function, after sending a predefined parameter:
tissue.edata.qn = quantile.normalize.raw.gtex(tissue.edata)
From what I understand, the library function is supposed to include the function normalize.quantiles, which is called in the function that is defined in my source code.
However, when I run the line library(preprocessCore) I get the following error:
Error in library(preprocessCore) :
there is no package called ‘preprocessCore’
I also tried to run the rest of the code and got the error:
Error in normalize.quantiles(as.matrix(edata.mat)) :
could not find function "normalize.quantiles"
I looked for the preprocessCore online and eventually I tried to write install.packages("preprocessCore"), but I got a warning message that this package is only available in version 3.6.0 of R, even though I checked and this is the version that I have.
If somebody has any idea what the problem is, I will appreciate your help.
Thanks in advance
The preprocessCore package is available in Bioconductor. So, to install it, you need the following lines:
source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")
biocLite("preprocessCore")
After that, you can load the package using library(preprocessCore)
Hope it helps.
I'm new to R/web services.
I'm trying to use R's SSOAP package to get/post soap messages.
I want to generate functions definitions using the genSOAPCLientInterface by way of the processWSDL function.
when i run the processWSDL function, i get the following error message, which i dont know how to interpret:
Error in SOAPType(el, namespaceDefs=namespaceDefinitions):could not find function "SOAPType"
any help/pointers would be very helpful.
wsdl_doc<-xmlParse(paste0(wsdl_url, '?wsdl')
definitions<-processWSDL(wsdl_doc, verbose=T, useInternalNodes=T)
Error in SOAPType(el, namespaceDefs = namespaceDefinitions) :
could not find function "SOAPType"
SOAPType is a class used in SSOAP package, but it is declared in package XMLSchema. And for some reason it is not an exported class.
This workaround helped me to make the function processWSDL() working for me:
SOAPType = XMLSchema:::SOAPType
def <- processWSDL(doc)
I am trying to install the r package sowas and unfortunately it is too old to implement in the new versions of r.
According to the author you can use the package using the source() function to gain access to the code but I have not been able to figure out how to do that.
Any help is appreciated.
Here is a link to the package I described as it is not a CRAN package: http://tocsy.pik-potsdam.de/wavelets/
The .zip file is a windows binary and as such it won't be too interesting. What you'll want to look at is the contents of the .tar.gz archive. You can extract those contents and then look at the code in the R subdirectory.
You could also update the package to work with new versions of R so that you can actually build and install the package. To do so you could unpack the .tar.gz as before but now you'll need to add a NAMESPACE file. This is just a plaintext file at the top of the package directory that has a form like:
export(createar)
export(createwgn)
export(criticalvaluesWCO)
export(criticalvaluesWSP)
export(cwt.ts)
export(plot.wt)
export(plotwt)
export(readmatrix)
export(readts)
export(rk)
export(wco)
export(wcs)
export(writematrix)
export(wsp)
Where you have an export statement for any function in the package that you actually want to be able to use. If a function isn't exported then the functions in the package still have access to that function but the user can't use it (as easily). Once you do that you should be able to build and install the package.
I took the liberty of doing some of this already. I haven't actually taken the time to figure out which functions are useful and should be exported and just assumed that if a help page was written for the function that it should be exported and if there wasn't a help page then I didn't export it. I used Rd2roxygen to convert the help pages to roxygen code (because that's how I roll) and had to do a little bit of cleanup after that but it seems to install just fine.
So if you have the devtools package installed you should actually be able to install the version I modified directly by using the following commands
library(devtools)
install_github("SOWAS", "Dasonk")
Personally I would recommend that you go the route of adding the NAMESPACE file and what not directly as then you'll have more control over the code and be more able to fix any problems that might occur when using the package. Or if you use git you could fork my repo and continue fixing things from there. Good luck.
If you want to see the source code of a particular function, then just type the name of the function without the braces and press enter. You will see the code.
For example type var in command prompt to see it's code.
> var
function (x, y = NULL, na.rm = FALSE, use)
{
if (missing(use))
use <- if (na.rm)
"na.or.complete"
else "everything"
na.method <- pmatch(use, c("all.obs", "complete.obs", "pairwise.complete.obs",
"everything", "na.or.complete"))
if (is.na(na.method))
stop("invalid 'use' argument")
if (is.data.frame(x))
x <- as.matrix(x)
else stopifnot(is.atomic(x))
if (is.data.frame(y))
y <- as.matrix(y)
else stopifnot(is.atomic(y))
.Call(C_cov, x, y, na.method, FALSE)
}

I was trying to acquaint myself with R's nChooseK function but I can't get it to work. I thought it was part of the standard setup (i.e. no additional package needed).
Please help. Here is what I tried:
> nChooseK(10,2)
Error: could not find function "nChooseK"
> n<-4;k<-2
> print(nChooseK(n,k))
Error in print(nChooseK(n, k)) : could not find function "nChooseK"
the last one was an example I saw here: R basic nChooseK
The function is in the R.basic package which is not part of the default R installation. You probably meant to use just choose().
As joran mentions the function nChooseK is a part of R.basic. You can tell this from the example you posted by looking at the top of the page:
You'll notice the "R.basic" in the curley braces which tells you that that function is a part of the "R.basic" package. So to use nChooseK you'll first need to load that package
library(R.basic)
If you don't have R.basic installed yet then you'll need to install it
install.packages("R.basic", contriburl="http://www.braju.com/R/repos/")
library(R.basic)
But as noted the choose function in base R does the same thing
choose(37, 12)
#[1] 1852482996
nChooseK(37, 12)
#[1] 1852482996
