Support expss package on FastR

[Alain-Bearez]

As per #16, install the data.table dependency through

install.packages("http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/data.table/data.table_1.10.4-3.tar.gz")

prior to using the above snippet.

Hi Alain,

thank you for the report. FastR doesn't implement the builtin function rapply. We'll get it implemented.

Hi Alain,

FYI we've implemented rapply, but there are still some issues with your concrete example as it uses data.table internally and data.table is not very well supported on FastR yet, however, we are working on it.

I've changed the title so that it is not misleading: rapply is working in FastR, but the reported code snippet as a whole is not yet.

[Alain-Bearez]

I consider this issue can be closed since installing data.table as recommended in
#16 (comment)
enables to run the original snippet.

install.fastr.packages('data.table')
install.packages('expss')

After installing the packages as above, the below snippet gives the same result (except for the row labels) in FastR as in GNU-R.

library('data.table')
library('expss')

P1 <- c(1,1,2,2,2,2,1,2,2,1,1,1,1,1,1,2,2,1,1,1)
val_lab(P1) <- make_labels("
                           1 Masc
                           2 Fem
                           ")
total_x_P1 <- cro_rpct(total(), col_vars = P1, total_row_position = "below", total_label = "Base")

Hello Alain,

thank you. Not being familiar with the expss package, are the missing row labels just a cosmetic issue?

Stepan, It seems to me that one of the main goals of the expss package is actually to have nice labels. Although the results are right, having nice labels instead of the numbers 1 and 2, makes a big difference. Em seg, 20 de mai de 2019 às 10:57, Stepan Sindelar < [email protected]> escreveu:
