maps of Poland in R
Bogdan Taranta (website in Polish) is developing a set of functions for drawing administrative maps of Poland. I wrote similar functionality for myself already some time ago, but only for voivodships, i.e. top-level administrative units, and also in a rather low resolution. Bogdan’s contribution seems to contain all levels, at high resolution, and including...
Smart programming saves computing times
Recently, I tried to learn C language so that I can write a C addon for some R rountines to redress the speed issue in R. In my last post here, I have documented how a simple trick can speed up R. Nonetheless, I had an example which shows that smart...

One R tip a day
I just encountered this website http://onertipaday.blogspot.com/: One R tip per day. Very nice collection of R tips.
Speed up R! Make R Run Faster!
This is another example of why defaults matter a lot. I got an email of Evan Cooch forward by Matt, saying that there exists a trick to speed up R matrix caculation. He found that if we replace the default Rblas.dll in R with the proper one. It can b...

Paper describing the weaver package published in Computational Statistics
It seems like a lifetime ago that I developed the weaver package for caching code chunks in Sweave documents. The paper that I presented at the DSC 2007 has finally been published in Computational Statistics. The title is Caching Code Chunks in Dynamic Documents: The weaver package. Here’s the abstract: Authoring dynamic...
