Hi, (this is a minor irritation), is it possible for me to call R's editor from the R command prompt (I searched for script but that didn't yield anything). (The mouse-file-new-script route is a minor irritation )

Hi, Still fresh in R, tried to figure this out, now on my second day running with no luck (and a pile of hair on my desk) so I have thrown in the towel and would like to ask for some help. Here is what I am trying to do. I am trying to plot a distribution, I have 99 points, bound in the range xlim.min: -0.0173 xlim.max: 0.02103 However, I have a value outside this range (0.2454959) which I

hi all, is there a new mechanism in R 2.3.0 for copying libraries from, say, R 2.2.1 to R 2.3.0? i ask because gabor grothendieck comments in his copydir.bat (from gabor's batchfiles at: http://cran.r-project.org/contrib/extra/batchfiles/batchfiles_0.2-5.zip ): ``:: I personally upgraded my 2.1.0 to 2.2.0 this way so it seems ok until :: R replaces this with something better which is

Dear List I am new to R and to the list and will try best as I can be clear and concise. My apologies if anything I write contravenes the posting code on this list. I would also like to say I have run through most of the material on the R website before writing this email however, I am stuck. Here is what I want to do and what I have done 1. Read a comma seperated text file into R I have used

I have an ordering and factor problem to which there must be a simple solution! The version is R 2.0.1 (2004-11-15) on A Linux platform. A data frame H is read in from a .csv file using read.csv with as.is=TRUE. Another data frame HN is constructed from data and I want to compare two columns both named ss of the (sorted) data frames that are the same length. The problem is that HN$ss is

I am trying to get a measure of how R compares in usage as a statistical platform compared to other software. I would guess it is the most widely used among statisticians at least by virtue of it being open source. But is there any study to which I can refer? By asking this list I am not exactly adopting a rigorous approach! Best wishes John John Logsdon

I need to run a Java-enabled Firefox on my CentOS4.1-powered laptop and it *was* running fine. Then yesterday I up2date'd the box and Firefox went from 1.0.4 to 1.0.6. And I lost Java. I can't seem to re-install it, whether from the original (1.5.0 I think it was) or the latest downloads. This is crucially important as I need to access my Dell RAC. Can anyone advise how to get

CentOS4 standard installation. I see that KwifiManager doesn't support 128 bit WEP which I need for other machines on the network, which is a bit of a blow - and rather surprising really as security should be quite a consideration on an enterprise level system (NB RH!). Is there a workaround? An alternative way of configuring my Belkin F5D6020 ver 2 card? eg a cvs download that I can get

Hello I know that R's string functions are not as extensive as those of Unix but I need to do some text handling totally within an R environment because the target is a Windows system which will not have the corresponding shell utilities, sed, awk etc. Can anyone explain the following gsub phenomenon to me: >

Does the Windows box have the same version of R

Is there a way to get the axes labels for a persp() plot to show the actual values employed? ticktype='detailed' only shows a scale from 0 to 1. My values are (for example) y in 0.2-0.7, x in 450-560 and I would like to suppress the z labels. How can I get the x and y values to appear on the plot? R-2.3.1, Windows XP Home.

Hi All, I want to give ranks to elements in a column so I used: total_list$field1.rank <- rank(total_list$field1,ties.method="min") But this gives me the rank in increasing order. How do I get the ranks in decreasing order? I know decreasing = FALSE is not a legal argument here. Thanks.

Hi All, A few years ago I was asked if I could redirect console messages from Iptables to a different virtual console, on RedHat 7.3 . I managed to do it, but can't remember how I did it, now that the same question has arisen ona Centos 3.4 box. I edited /etc/syslog.conf and redirected kern.* to /dev/tty2 for example & this didn't work I edited /etc/sysconfig/syslog and modified

If I can squeeze a message between the discussions on security (:-)) I have been trying to compile a kernel on an x86_64 box under CentOS4.1 and now 4.2. The problem is that neither make xconfig or make gconfig work: make gconfig * * Unable to find the GTK+ installation. Please make sure that * the GTK+ 2.0 development package is correctly installed... * You need gtk+-2.0, glib-2.0 and

I am trying to extract into a scalar the value of Phi from the printed output of gls or lme using corAR1 correlation. ie I want the estimate of the autocorrelation. I can't see how to do this and haven't seen it anywhere in str(model.lme). I can get all the other information - fixed and random effects etc. Is there an obvious way so that I can save the brick wall some damage? TIA

I am trying to extract the solution from a simple lme calculation. For example (the first 4 have a mean 0, sd 1): > y<-c(-1.118,-.5,.5,1.118,10) > gp<-factor(c(rep('one',4),'two')) > res<-lme(y~1,rand=~1|gp) Linear mixed-effects model fit by REML Data: NULL Log-restricted-likelihood: -8.67141 Fixed: y ~ 1 (Intercept) 4.962502 Random effects:

Folks I have been using rsnapshot for years now. The only problem I've found is that it is possible to run out of inodes. So my heads-up is that when you create the file system, ensure you have more than the default inodes - I usually multiply the default by 10. Otherwise you can find your 1Tb USB drive failing after 259Mb and you can't then recover the files. Rather embarrassing. >

I just updated the packages on my pc (windows xp). When loading lme4 I get > library(lme4) Error: package 'Matrix' 0.995-1 was found, but >= 0.995.2 is required by 'lme4' 'Matrix' 0.995-1 is indeed installed on my computer, but update.packages() does not capture a never version; and seemingly for good reasons: When looking at CRAN, the new version of Matrix is

R-ists Yet again Java rears its ugly head. I have Kubuntu 7.04 running the Kubuntu-repository version of R 2.4.1-1. Yes it isn't the very latest version but this is not the issue here. I want a Windows-like environment and everyone is talking about JGR. I downloaded it and installed it along with rJava. Both compile and install satisfactorily. But when I come to run it: >

Folks I have come across an issue with gc() hogging the processor according to Rprof. Platform is Ubuntu 20.04 all up to date R version 4.3.1 libraries: survival, MASS, gtools and openxlsx. With default gc.auto options, the profiler notes the garbage collector as self.pct 99.39%. So I have tried switching it off using options(gc.auto=Inf) in the R session before running my program using
