Overview

About

Maintained by Peter MeissnerCRAN page ↗

Tool collection for common and not so common data science use cases. This includes custom made algorithms for data management as well as value calculations that are hard to find elsewhere because of their specificity but would be a waste to get lost nonetheless. Currently available functionality: find sub-graphs in an edge list data.frame, find mode or modes in a vector of values, extract (a) specific regular expression group(s), generate ISO time stamps that play well with file names, or generate URL parameter lists by expanding value combinations.

Changes in 0.3.3

remove of #include <bits/stdc++.h> from grpahs_find_subgraphs.cpp because its a) bad style, b) not cross platform compatible and c) wasteful d) actually a dirty hack - thanks to comment from Prof Brian Ripley - also: https://stackoverflow.com/a/46814932/1144966.

From NEWS.md in the release

Install

R (source archive)

url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/dsmisc/dsmisc_0.3.3.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "dsmisc_0.3.3.tar.gz"
download.file(url, pkgFile)
install.packages(pkgFile, type = "source", repos = NULL)

This package is no longer on CRAN, so install.packages() cannot fetch it by name. This downloads the last archived source (0.3.3) and builds it locally. Install its dependencies first, and note that building from source needs the usual compiler toolchain.
