partial correlation coefficients in R?
Hello, after thorough searching of the R help files as well as S+-help, I'm coming to the list: Is there a possibility to compute partial correlation coefficients between multiple variables (correlation between two paired samples with the "effects of all other variables partialled out")? All I seem to find are the standard Pearson correlation coefficients (with cor()) and no clue

eqscplot() in library MASS: fails when given only one point (PR#1164)
This is not a bug. There is no way one can scale the plot axes equally when no indication has been given of the scaling expected for either! It has always seemd to be that plot(x=1, y=1) shoul dnot work: it has not supplied enough information!

eqscplot() in library MASS: fails when given only one point (PR#1162)
I found the following in eqscplot, library MASS: When given just one point, it fails: > eqscplot(x=1, y=1) Error in plot.window(xlim, ylim, log, asp, ...) : need finite xlim values After inserting browser() just before the last line in eqscplot() (in which plot() gets called), I found the following: > eqscplot(x=1, y=1) Called from: eqscplot(x = 1, y = 1) Browse[1]> xlim [1] NaN

list of all objects - just being curious
Hello all, to obtain a list of all objects in all search paths, I've found the following to work: > biglist <- sapply(1:length(search()), objects) This more obvious one, however, does not work: > biglist <- sapply(search(), objects) Error in pos.to.env(pos) : invalid argument Still, search() gives [1] ".GlobalEnv" "package:ctest" "Autoloads"

Installing contributed packages on MacOS X: Solved!
I had run into problems when compiling some contributed packages to an installation of R 1.40 by fink on MacOS X. Namely, packages KernSmooth (2.22-7) and cluster (1.4-0) would not find required libraries, though those were present on the system. Jeff Whitaker, the maintainer of the R fink packages, kindly sent me this: > Kaspar: It's not looking in /sw/lib, where the libs are (the

html documentation bug in: help(par), 'las'
Currently (R-1.4.1 as well as R-devel, according to http://stat.ethz.ch/R-alpha/R-devel/library/base/html/par.html), the html version of help(par) shows [...] lab A numerical vector of the form c(x, y, len) which modifies the way that axes are annotated. The values of x and y give the (approximate) number of tickmarks on the x and y axes and len specifies the label size. The default

scale() and NA values
Hello, I've a question concerning the behaviour of the "scale" function in the base package. I'm using R 1.1.1 on Windows 95. If I take a matrix with NA values, such as > tm <- matrix(c(2,1,0,1,0,NA,NA,NA,0), nrow=3) > tm [,1] [,2] [,3] [1,] 2 1 NA [2,] 1 0 NA [3,] 0 NA 0 and scale it, the columns containing NAs come out all NA: >

Follow-up: Inverse prediction with R?
(message from 22.2.2000 13:04 Uhr): > > > Why don't you inverse the modelling instead: > > t.m.i <- lm((x~y) > Jan, thanks for the tip, but it's not just the same. The coefficients come out differently, since the squared y residuals are minimized. Orthogonal regression would be symmetric, but least squares is not, I'm afraid. And, what's more, I have to

Inverse prediction with R?
Hello, after some searching in the mailing list archives, R-Help and S-Plus-Help, I dare asking the question here: How can I do inverse prediction from a lm model with R? What I want to achieve is this: predict term values for given new response values. If I've got a model t.m<-lm(y?x) I would type something like inverse.predict(t.m, newdata=data.frame(y=1:10)) which would give me new

Another (last?) follow-up: Inverse Prediction with R
Hello, after I've read a few answers from the list, I realised that I stated my problem incorrectly: my x values are not _fixed_, as I wrote (I did not set them). They just have no errors to them, but, apart from that, are random. I think I shall be reading up on calibration next. Many thanks for the references!

Pairwise comparisons/contrasts from a coxph model?
Hello, this is probably more a statistical question than an R-specific problem, but I'll risk it. I've fitted a Cox Proportional hazard model with one factor Treatment (seven levels) as a predictor variable. The general Null hypothesis (all groups show the same survival behaviour) is clearly rejected. Now, is there any (statistically sensible) way of doing pairwise comparisons and/or

For the record: how to merge data frames vertically
Hello, to save searching time in the S-news archive, here is the simple solution to merge data frames vertically (cols must be equivalent, of course). The frames must be components of a list, such as produced by framelist<-split(bigframe,factor). bigframe2<-do.call("rbind",framelist) # posted to S-news by Bill Venables, found in summary message

How to create a data.frame "like" another, but longer?
Hello, does anyone know of a quick way to create a data frame "like" another, but with more rows? What I'd like to do is this: if mydata is a data.frame like a b c 1 TRUE yes 2 FALSE no 3 TRUE yes I'd like to get mydata2 with the same column names and column types, but without the values and with more rows. All I could think of was to manually do

R 1.1 congrat; undocumented behaviour of recordPlot
Hello, first, I'd like to congratulate the core team to the new R version 1.1. I think it's a great update, with glimpses into an even greater future (tcltk!). While playing around with the new functions (on Win 95), I found the following: As the documentation states, when I generate a plot and save it with recordPlot, I can regenerate it by printing the variable: > plot(1:10) >

Type III Sums of Squares?
Hello, I'd like to propose an extension to the function summary.aov. In Splus (2000, I don't know about other versions), summary.aov allows a parameter ssType to be set to 1 or 3 (defaults to 1) to choose the type of Sums of Squares. I know I can get Type III SS in R with drop1(model), but including the functionality into summary.aov would, in my opinion, - yield a more usable table

MacOS X: Packages KernSmooth and cluster won't compile
Hello, I'm using R 1.40 on MacOS X X.1.2 (installed via the fink package manager). To upgrade my installed packages, I tried to use update.packages() today. All went well for most packages, with the exception of KernSmooth and cluster. In both cases, libraries were not found although I think they are present.
