Hello, I am trying to use HMisc describe on a data frame. I have specified certain variables as dates using, for example: df1$aidsdate <- dates(aidsdate,format="day.mon.year", origin=c(month = 1, day = 1, year = 1960)) When I use describe on the dataframe I get this error: Error in Ops.dates(weights, x) : * not defined for chron objects Has anyone had this problem? I had

Dear R users, I want to share my joy with you. Please see the following excellent introduction to R "Statistiques avec R " by Vincent Zoonekynd http://zoonek2.free.fr/UNIX/48_R/all.html In paticular, you can see a lot of fascinating graphics examples of R from which you can get many hints. Soryy if this is already well-known, but the CRAN search did not show nothing with the keyword

My earlier posting should have said "dotchart", not "barchart". 1)  How does one show confidence-intervals in a "dotchart" and use rownames for labels on the y-axes?  I have looked at "plotCI" in "gregmisc" package . But it does not seem to produce something like a dotchart.  The statistic, error, upper-bound, and lower-bound are in a

I noticed the addition of the Dates class for dates without times, in R 1.9. I am making extensive use of POSIXct at present and would like to know whether it is worth changing to Dates. What are a few of the trade-offs? Thanks, Frank --- Frank E Harrell Jr Professor and Chair School of Medicine Department of Biostatistics Vanderbilt University

Dear R-user, I already received quite a lot of replies to this mail and like to do a preliminary sum up. A few were sceptical about the use of such a beginner mailing list. The arguments were that people starting with R will only stay subscribed for a short time until they reached the R-help "level" and therefore only beginner will teach beginner how to use R. But as far

Dear all, I am a newcomer to R. I intend to using R to do stepwise regression and PLS with a data set (a 55x20 matrix, with one dependent and 19 independent variable). Based on the same data set, I have done the same work using SPSS and SAS. However, there is much difference between the results obtained by R and SPSS or SAS. In the case of stepwise, SPSS gave out a model with 4 independent

Does anybody know if R is FDA or ICH (or EMEA...) compliant? AFAIK S-Plus is but that means nothing... -- Trebate bolji pristup internetu? Nazovite IskonInternet na 0800 1000 ili pogledajte http://www.iskon.biz/individualni/usluge/dialup/

Greetings List, I am conducting some large simulations using R. As a result, I get many plots but I'm having some trouble with including some of them in a Microsoft Word document. Can any one tell me the easiest method of having copies of the R-graphs in the Word documents? Best regards Mahmoud [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Occasionally I have had plotmath refuse to draw x-axis labels. This has happened when the label, created using expression(paste( ) ) as below, could be drawn easily in the available space. I have not reproduced that, but the following example with a clearly overly long label results in no xlab at all. I hoped that at least a truncated label would be plotted. This is probably related to my

NEW DEPARTMENT OF BIOSTATISTICS The School of Medicine at Vanderbilt University is pleased to announce the creation of a new Department of Biostatistics. Vanderbilt has made a major new funding commitment to build a world-class department. Chaired by Frank E. Harrell, Jr., the new department has exceptional institutional support from a medical center that is currently 16th in U.S. News and

I have dealt with this on so many platforms in the past that I should know the answer by now. I looked in V&R S Programming, R manuals and FAQ and still can't find the answer. In the Hmisc library I used the R scripts to build the package, which creates Hmisc.so. I have library.dynam('Hmisc', ...) in the .First.lib. When doing library(Hmisc) I get Error in dyn.load ....

I am using R 1.2.3 on Linux Mandrake 7.2. I have a ton of S Nroff help files that end with source code typified by the following: Last S statement in an example, e.g. X <- y ..KW models ..KW regression ..WR When using R RMD Sd2Rd to create the .Rd file I get X <- y \keyword{models} \keyword{regression} } The } matches a { in \examples{ at the beginning of the example code (started in

Kevin, I was glad to see your list. Some of the items were reasons for creating some of the functions in Hmisc. summarize and mApply in conjunction with llist handle labeling of output - this is actually quite tricky and the Hmisc solution isn't perfect. Dropping unused factor levels by default (with easy override) is an old battle and I agree with you completely that for everyday data
