Boris: As before, you assume that I, Bruce Ratner, just asks questions without first trying it myself. FYI: I purchased and read four RStudio books, as well as all the links I found in the web.

If you had indeed done your homework in the manner that Boris recommended you would had no need to clutter this mailing list with your (off-topic) question. cheers, Rolf Turner -- Technical Editor ANZJS Department of Statistics University of Auckland Phone: +64-9-373-7599 ext. 88276
