As an R absolute beginner and an expert (very old) statistician and latex user, I'm interested in using R to produce AUTOMAGICALLY tables in latex format. I mean I would like to have the means to build an R procedure generating **FROM INSIDE** a table or a graph to be inserted directly into latex. I've read http://hesweb1.med.virginia.edu/biostat/s/doc/summary.pdf where the author speaks

I'm trying to use ESS & xemacs under debian linux testing and KDE. My problem is that I didn't find any document in the internet explaining a **step by step** session with R and xemacs. The (wrong) procedure I follow (to no avail!) is: 1) I start R in a terminal window; 2) I start xemacs and open a file with the extension .R (test.R); 3) I issue M-x R RET and I can see an Rd new

As an absolute beginner, still reading "Modern Applied Statistics with S" and exercising with its examples, I'm frequently stopped by what it looks to be R poor help system (or is it my gigantic ignorance?). I mean that using help many arguments of a command seems to be given for granted like for instance: ............................... ?lines lines(x, ...) ## Default S3

Having to collect hourly electricity loads and quarter-of-an-hour electricity production data for some years I think that the tidiest way of doing it is to resort to ts but I don't know how to define such a frequency starting from a set date. Leafing through r-help mail archives I've found this *ALMOST* satisfactory message: ==========================================================

I'm learning R from scratch on my linux box, being deeply biased at work by those graphical programs, nice to look but often poor in content and almost generally limited, running under M$ Windows. I wonder if someone out there can suggest to an absolute beginner as I am where to find a collection of examples of R-code (or Splus, as I understand) to play with in order to learn R quicker. The

As an R absolute beginner when I update my R 1.8.1, after installing the packages I see the various updated commands orderly running in a table on the screen where, among other things, "latex" and "example" are indicated. 1) Being an old user of latex what **exactly** the "latex" label on a command mean and how, in what context, can it be used? 2) How can I see the

Reading "Modern Applied Statististics with S" and trying the corresponding examples both in the book and in ../lib/R/library/MASS/script, I'm now trying chapter 4 plotting bars with the following code on a linux box with R 1.8.1: ---------------------- library(MASS) library(lattice) options(echo=T, width=65, digits=5) lung.deaths <- aggregate(ts.union(mdeaths, fdeaths), 1)

I'm reading Ripley-Venables "Modern Applied Statistics with S - Fourth edition" , at the same time trying the examples proposed in the book using R 1.8.1 under linux. Now I'm trying the following code from the book (example code of spatial statistics at page 76) with R : | data(topo) library("spatial") topo.loess<-loess(z ~ x * y, topo, | degree= 2,span=0.25) |

As an absolute beginner I'm reading and practicing with the Verzani doc to learn R. Now, being an expert latex user who wants to integrate graphical capabilities if R and latex, using the "Simple" library and the simple.scatterplot examples I had a go at: 1) Including the resulting graph into a doc.snw then compiled through sweave & latex; 2) Produce the graph in pdf format
