Dear All, discussing with a statistician of a pharmaceutical company I received this answer about the statistical package that I have planned to use: As R is not a validated software package, we would like to ask if it would rather be possible for you to use SAS, SPSS or another approved statistical software system. Could someone suggest me a 'polite' answer? TIA Giovanni -- dr.

Dear R Fellow-Travellers: What is your recommended way of dealing with a left-censored response (non-detects) in (linear Gaussian) mixed effects models? Specifics: Response is a numeric positive measurement (of volume, actually); but when it falls below some unknown and slightly random value (depending on how the sample is prepared and measured), it cannot be measured and is recorded as 0.

Last week Giovanni Parrinello posted a message asking why various packages were loaded when he loaded an .Rdata file. Brian Ripley replied saying he thought it was because the saved workspace contained a reference to the namespace of ipred. (Correspondence copied below). This begs the question: how did the reference to the namespace of ipred come to be in the .Rdata file? Brian did say it is

Hello to All. I'd want to use a one-way ANOVA. This means that I have only one factor, with, lets say, 5 levels. I made a dataframe, called "DATA", with two Columns: A, that is my response, and it is "class numerical". B, that defines the different levels of my factor, and it is "class factor". If I want to use a fixed effect model, I know that the formula I have

Hello all, Got SAMBA running on a linux 2.0.32 box, and all is well. Looked over the docs and set up my printer with the (what I think) are correct entries. Basically, what the default smb.conf has. Testparms says it o.k.! And I can print (lpr) locally. Windows sees both printcap entries (inkjet and psjet), but any attempt to pring to them errors out. I then added the print command =

Dear R Users, There exists a non-central hypergeometric distribution function in the (MCMCpack) package, and a hypergeometric distribution function in the (stats) package. Is there a function for sampling from an extended hypergeometric distribution? Thanks, Narcyz This message is intended for the addressee named and may con...{{dropped}}

Hi, I hope somebody can help me on how to use the hypergeometric function. I did read through the R documentation on hypergeometric but not really sure what it means. I would like to evaluate the hypergeometric function as follows: F((2*alpha+1)/2, (2*alpha+2)/2 , alpha+1/2, betasq/etasq). I'm not sure which function should be used- either phyper or qhyper or dhyper Where

For those who are interested, I have made available a R function for noncentral hypergeometric distribution at http://www.geocities.com/jg_liao/software/Hypergeometric/hypergeometric_in_R.txt The paper that describes the algorithm will appear in The American Statistician. The function does not run on S-plus as the R's scoping rule is used. Here is how the function can be used: > n1

Is there any way to know how the "dmvt" function computes the hypergeometric function needed in the calculation for the density of multivariate t distribution? -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/hypergeometric-function-in-mvtnorm-tp4483730p4483730.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Hello. Somebody knows how to compute generalized hypergeometric series in R? (see http://functions.wolfram.com/HypergeometricFunctions/HypergeometricPFQ/02/ to understand what I mean) Thanks in advance, Arnau.
