O.K. Thanks to all who responded. Most of the function names that don't have
a clear meaning seem be abbrviations or to stand for something (e.g., sd, grep).
I guess this is just an exception.

Hi senne,
The rect function in base graphics can do the job. First do the plot
with type="n" (i.e. no plotting), then display your rectangles:
xylim<-par("usr")
rect.left<-as.Date(seq(paste(rep(c("Dec","Mar","Jun","Sep"),length.out=10),
c("07","08","08","08","08","09","09","09","09","10"),sep="-")))
rect.right<-rect.left+10
rect(rect.left,xylim[3],rect.right,xylim[4],col="lightblue",border="lightblue")
then draw the line and text labels.
Warning - untested

Thanks, Peter!
(And to the offline-reply as well!)
The question is not completely answered in FAQ 7.22,
though:> par(mfrow=c(3,4))
> for(i in 1:12)print(qqmath(rnorm(20)))
prints 12 after another; not in (3,4)
Why, and how to print 12 samples on a single sheet?

See ?rgl.postscript and ?rgl.snapshot
Or use some kind of screen capture system - on Windows the 'Print
Screen' key can copy the screen to the clipboard, paste into Photoshop
or other graphics program.
On Linux, I use 'scrot' from the command line - type 'scrot -s',
click on a window, and it makes a PNG file of it.

replace bw = 2 by darg = list(bw = 2), then it works for me. Read the
documentation of panel.densityplot carefully, it says that you need to
use darg = list().

You need to supply a *list* 'darg' to panel.densityplot; see
the help page.
panel.densityplot(x, darg = list(bw = "nrd", adjust = 1.2), ...)
(I would use one of the built-in bandwidth selectors with a
suitable 'adjust' value.)

You are mixing 'traditional' graphics (par(...)) and
'lattice' graphics.
That won't work. In lattice, you use the 'layout' argument to
select the number of columns/rows. This is easiest if you set
up a conditioning variable:
cond <- gl(12, 20, labels = letters[1:12])
x <- rnorm(12*20)
qqmath(~x | cond, layout = c(4, 3))
Note that layout = c(columns, rows), not c(rows, columns).
Since you're new to R, let me also recommend very strongly
that you learn to use the str() function (not needed for
this problem, but undoubtedly indispensible in your further
adventures in R-land).

How can one know/see, what is traditional graphics, and what is lattice
graphics? Or is it try-and-fail-and-use-the-alternative?

This is a perfect time to learn about str().
If you check
str(qqnorm(possum$hdlngth))
You will see that it is a list of two numeric vectors. But
stem() expects just one vector. The stem(....) call is an
error; it should be just stem(possum$hdlngth).

You have to do a fair amount of reading. There's a whole chapter
on base graphics in the Intro to R, which also (briefly) mentions
lattice graphics. And then there's the ggplot2 package ...
Beginners should definitely work through the Intro to R.
It takes time and patience.

Again on Linux, since ImageMagick is installed, I use the 'import'
programme from that suite. When you start that, it produces a
"+"-shaped mouse cursor which you can use (selecting a top-left-hand
corner to start with, and holding down the left mouse button) to
drag out a bounding frame for the part of the screen you want to
save. Then, when you release the button, an image of that portion
of the screen is saved to a file of your choice, in any graphics
format of your choice that is supported by ImageMagick (including
PS and EPS, as well as all the common butmap formats).
See 'man import' for pointers to more information.
I have this set up as an icon on my "launch" panel, so it is just
a matter of clicking on that, and then doing the above. The command
behind the icon is
/usr/local/bin/mkscreengrab
and my script file 'mkscreengrab' contains:
#! /bin/bash
export ScrGrbTmp=`mktemp /home/ted/Screengrabs/screengrabXXXX`
import $ScrGrbTmp.jpg
rm $ScrGrbTmp
so this makes JPEGs (I could have chosen somthing else, but that's
the default I mostly want for that activity). This produces a file
with a name like "screengrab4913.jpg" which will be unique in that
directory, and it can later be renamed to your taste.
If I wanted a different file format, I would use 'import' from
the command line, with appropriate filenam extension (e.g. ".png",
".ps", ".eps", ... ).
I hadn't heard of scrot before, but now I've looked it up it
seems that its output format is limited to PNG.
I've now also located more info about various ways of taking
screenshots in Linux:

Thanks Peter. This worked fine. I guess my problem was that when I
maximize the graph window everything seems to expand, this is why I was
having trouble with it.

Does this give you what you have in mind:
text(par("usr")[1] + max(strwidth(paste(lab1, ""))),
2:4,lab1,adj=c(0,0.5))

I would prefer to name it base and grid graphics.
Base is in graphics and grDevices packages and grid graphics is in grid
package. Only some packages use grid graphics (lattice, ggplot2, nlme for
some) many more packages use base graphics. You can not simply mix
functions from one with another, however if you dig deeper you can find
that it is possible.
Basically if you do not intend to develop graphic package you probably
will use what others developed for you and you will use base graphics most
of the time.
Fro lattice help page
Lattice is built upon the Grid graphics engine and requires the
?grid? add-on package. It is not (readily) compatible with
traditional R graphics tools.

Thanks for you answer. Let me precise my question.
In fact, I do not want to "capture" a screen, I want to save an object
that can be seen in 3D. With rgl, using my mouse, I can make the object
move. This is what I want to export: an real 3D object that my
collaborator will have the possibility to see in 3D.

You mean without them having to install R and rgl and run the code
that produces your graphic?
I guess you could somehow export a VRML or some other 3d file:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VRML
but I suspect of all the billions of people on the planet only Duncan
Murdoch knows enough about rgl to figure that one out...
The person at the other end would still need a VRML viewer. Just get
them to install R.

Most such functions return lists. One can look at the names of the
components of such lists with str and extract the desired components.
In the case of wilcox.test you do not need str because you can just go
to the Value section of the help page and it's all laid out for you
(as it should be.) You could assign the results to say, wres, and then :
wres$statistic
wres$p.value

You can use predict() by specifying a complete data.frame() for prediction to
the argument newdata=. Look:
da <- expand.grid(x1=LETTERS[1:4], x2=1:9)
da$y <- rnorm(da$x1)
da$y[sample(length(da$y), 5)] <- NA
m0 <- lm(y~x1+x2, data=da)
predict(m0) # NA not predicted
predict(m0, newdata=da) # NA predicted
Sincerely.

Most of the discussion about genetics/omics applications occurs on the
BioConductor mailing list. You should definitely seek it out, get the
base installed and review their available online resources (before
sending your next message to the correct mailing list.

Michael this is not really the place for help on homework other than
perhaps on technical roadblocks. Note that the strategy you are being
told to follow is one whose statistical properties have been severely
criticized in the statistical literature. Only with a very high signal
to noise ratio (e.g., high true R^2) can torturing data lead to a
confession to something other than what the analyst wants to hear. I
suppose that in simulated data there is a "true" model out there
waiting
to be found, but beware of using this approach with real data with low
signal to noise ratios.

I don't know of any sequence assemblers in R; velvet would be a first
stop third party tool but it sounds like you have some fairly specific
requirements....

The Biostrings package has various functions to calculate edit distance,
which might form the input to familiar R clustering algorithms. See
installation instructions at

Why does sum(c(NA,NA), na.rm=TRUE) return 0 and not NA?

At the bottom of that page is a link to a very nice example:
http://meshlab.sourceforge.net/wiki/images/c/cc/Laurana.pdf
"Embedding interactive 3D object in a PDF using MeshLab and U3D,
Visual Computing Group. ISTI CNR. Example of an embedded U3D in a pdf."
Nice to play with! (With the mouse cursor over her, hold down the
button, and move around). According to the caption at the bottom:
"This pdf was produced with open source tools. The object
was converted in the pdf-ready U3D format with MeshLab
( http://meshlab.sourceforge.net ) and assembled in a pdf
with pdfLATEX and the movie15 package."

Lacking a reproducible example ... that is one that can be readily
pasted into a console session ... this code remains untested and
probably full of bugs so it is more a pseudo-code approach to the
problem than a solution:
DESCRIPgrep <- sub(".{13}$", "", lme$DESCRIPTION,
perl=TRUE)
with( lme, tapply(as.numeric(as.character(CLOSING.PRICE),
DESCRIPgrep, mean)
Please reread the Posting Guide and submit data examples constructed
with dput or dump so that responders can work on representative data.
It would be a real pain to reconstruct that data example but you could
have trivially offered it for testing.

See earlier post for one approach to the sum within description

For the same reason that:
sum(logical(0))
# [1] 0
If x is a numeric vector, possibly with NAs,
sum(x,na.rm=TRUE)
will first remove any NAs from x, and then execute sum() on
what is left.
In the case of your example, after removing the NAs from c(NA,NA)
there is nothing left. The fact that it comes out 'logical' is
another issue:
x <- c(NA,NA)
x[!is.na(x)]
# logical(0)
c(NA,NA)[-(1:2)]
# logical(0)
while:
c(3,4)[-(1:2)]
numeric(0)
The point is that the type of c(NA,NA) is "logical"
str(c(NA,NA))
# logi [1:2] NA NA

Message-ID: <1271337197556-1890003.post@n4.nabble.com>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
A new version of the ggplot2 web interface has been released. Info and a demo
video are available here: http://www.stat.ucla.edu/~jeroen/ggplot2/. The new
version has a lot of new features, like advanced data import, integration
with Google docs, converting variables from numeric to factor to dates and
vice versa, and a lot of new geom's.
For those that missed it: http://yeroon.net/ggplot2 is a web interface for
Hadley Wickham's R package ggplot2. It is used as a tool for rapid
prototyping, exploratory graphical analysis and education of statistics and
R. The interface is written completely in javascript, therefore there is no
need to install anything on the client side: a standard browser will do. All
major browsers are supported but a recent and standards-compliant browser is
highly recommended. Best performance is achieved by using Google Chrome.
The easiest way to learn how to use the application is by taking 5 minutes
to watch the introductory demo video.

Hi all,
does anybody know a useful function in R to calculate Weighted Spearman
Correlation with p-values, particularly for matrices?
Thanks,

Dear all,
I'm having trouble getting the correct spacing between x-axis labels on a
barplot. This is the command I'm using to generate the plot:
temp <- barplot(precip, beside=TRUE, xaxt="n", las=1, xpd=FALSE,
col="grey28", ylim=c(0, max(precip)))
Here is the structure of temp:> str(temp)
?num [1:96, 1] 0.7 1.9 3.1 4.3 5.5 6.7 7.9 9.1 10.3 11.5 ...
And here is the structure of the data being plotted:> str(precip)
?num [1:96] 1841 2871 9254 22335 30682 ...
> length(precip)
[1] 96
These are monthly data points for 8 years (8 * 12 = 96), but I only want to have
labels for each year (1978 to 1985), rather than every month. So I tried using
the following command, but this results in the labels not being far enough
apart, and therefore they don't fill the length of the x-axis (and don't
align properly with the corresponding first bar of every year):
axis(1, at=seq(1,96,12), 1978:1985)
This one has stumped me somewhat, so I'd be grateful to receive any
suggestions as to how I might resolve this.
Many thanks,
Steve

See Ben Bolker's reply if you want to plot a surface. If you want to
plot a curve by holding one of the two variables fixed, just set it to a
constant value, and use "x" as the other variable, e.g.
f <- function(x, y) { x^2 + y^2 }
curve(f(x, 2), from= .... )
curve(f(3, x), from= .... )
or wrap the function in a one variable function if you want to follow
some complicated path, e.g.
curve(function(t) f(t, t^2), from=....)

Current version of plyr:
agg ddply
X10 0.005 0.007
X100 0.007 0.026
X1000 0.086 0.248
X10000 0.577 3.136
X1e.05 4.493 44.147
Development version of plyr:
agg ddply
X10 0.003 0.005
X100 0.007 0.007
X1000 0.042 0.044
X10000 0.410 0.443
X1e.05 4.479 4.237
So there are some big speed improvements in the works.

I've been working on a fairly complex package that is a wrapper for several
optimization
routines. In this work, I've attempted to do the following:
- edit the package code foo.R
- in a root terminal at the right directory location
R CMD REMOVE foo
R CMD INSTALL foo
However, I don't get the right code. In fact, if I just do the remove,
library(foo)
does not throw an error. If I stop my R session and restart it, I do.
Is this expected behaviour?
For information, I run scripted tests that start with
rm(list=ls())
library(foo)
to ensure I'm getting "new" code each time.
If desired I can provide a minimal package to show this, but I expect that it is
a known
issue for which I've missed the documentation. Perhaps there is a command to
reset the
session. I did a brief search, but appropriate keywords pick up a lot of
irrelevant material.

This is good news, although I have recently encountered what I consider
excessive memory usage in the addition of key columns that don't affect the
number of groups. For example, grouping by Year and Month, if I add MonthBegin,
a POSIXct column from which the Year and Month columns were derived, I run out
of memory.

All,
I have a 30 million record text file without header information. I would

possible? The code below does what I want except that the readLines
portion takes quite a long time. Is there a way around reading the
lines? I'm working on Windows XP.

I think the development version also fixes that problem, but it's hard
to know without a reproducible example ....

The problem is that the new version of plyr is incompatible with
ggplot2, so I need to make some changes there before I can release it.
Hopefully this summer.

Christos,
I would base choise of `m' on the AIC or GCV scores, (or on the REML or
Marginal likelihood scores, if these have been used for smoothness
selection). I don't think the m=2 basis will be strictly nested within the
m=3 basis will it? So that rules out you option a. Option b is poor since the
smoothing parameters really have a different meaning in the two cases.
Choosing `m' according to the same criterion you used for smoothness
selection
seems like the most self consistent approach.
best,
Simon

Hi All,
I am having problems connecting to Rserve remotely.
I am trying to connect to Rserve which is running on a developer machine. At
the developer machine, I have created a file C:\Program
Files\R\R-2.7.1\etc\Rserve.conf with a single line
remote enable
At this machine, I check the IP address by 'ip config'. It is something
like
151.120.xx.xxx . This machine is running Rserve.
>From another machine, at the command line, I type
telnet 151.120.xx.xxx 6311
which should connect to the Rserve. However, I am getting a connection
refused.
Anyone have any advice on connecting remotely? Any help MUCH appreciated.
Thanks
Nupur.

If you want to place the header at the beginning of the file, then you have
to read/write the entire file to get that first line in.

You also might take a look at using file.append to speed up the process.

if i were you, i probably will use 1 line of sed to do such task
instead of R to insert headers in the file.

Thanks, balloonplot() is great and gets me really close to what I am after.
However it then brings me to a slightly different problem - I wonder if
anyone can suggest where I am going wrong?
Again with simplified data (
http://n4.nabble.com/file/n1890724/test-data.txt test-data.txt ):
Aug-03 Nov-03 Feb-04 May-04 Aug-04
Row1 1 -1.1 1.2 1.3 -1.4
Row2 3 -3.1 3.2 3.3 -3.4
Row3 5 -5.1 5.2 -5.3 5.4
library(gplots)
Read_data=read.table("C:/files/test-data.txt", head = T)
number_rows = nrow(Read_data)
number_cols = ncol(Read_data)
matrix_data = as.matrix(Read_data)
row_names = rep(rownames(matrix_data),number_cols)
col_names = rep(colnames(matrix_data),number_rows)
x11(width=120, height=80)
balloonplot(col_names, row_names, abs(matrix_data),
dotcolor = c("lightblue", "red")[(c(matrix_data) < 0)
+ 1],
show.margins = FALSE, cum.margins = FALSE,
xlab = "", ylab = "", label=T, label.lines= F,
colsrt=90, sorted = F,
rowmar=3, colmar=2.5,)
This gives this graphic: http://n4.nabble.com/file/n1890724/R_upload.jpeg
R_upload.jpeg .
The data colours go in the "right" places within the grid - i.e. with
the
correct numbers. However the numbers themselves are mixed up within each
row. Transposing the matrix_data within balloonplot() doesn't correct it.
Can someone see something simple that I am missing here? Thanks,
Guy

Dear helpers,
in course of my master thesis I trie to program a GLM to model the
number of seeds produced per flower relates to the time they were
exposed to pollinators (categorical with two levels), the altitude of
population (categorical with two levels) and the species (categorical
with six levels).
Since I have lots of zeros in my data and detected overdispersion when
simply using family=poisson, I choose the quasi family. With the
according default link option the homogeneity of variance in the
residuals is violated and so I tried to set link=sqrt and the
variance=mu^2. This combination should work, but unfortunately it does
not. I first got the warning message to specify starting values which
I hopefully solved right and I got the summary output and residuals
plots. But the anova output still do not work by printing the
following warning message: step size truncated out of bounds. I
searched in the R helping mail list and also tried to contact people
that once had similar problems, but got no reply.
I would be glad if anybody cound explain what happens, and point out a
solution for me to get the anova(model) output.
Thank you a lot in advance.
Sincerely,
Judith Trunschke

Hi Ravi,
Thanks for your response. I already considered the change of variables but I was
wondering if there were already a function in R which do the same thing in an
optimized way. My function f(x) is complicated so adding a change of variable
makes the algorithm takes a lot of time to give outputs.
Thanks,
Iazaiez.

Just do a variable transformation. If your function is f(x), your new
function would be:
f'(x) = sigma * f(sigma * x + mu). You can integrate f'(x)
using
the Hermite quadrature.

Hi All,
I am trying to use A Gaussian quadrature over the interval (-infty,infty)
with weighting function W(x)=exp(-(x-mu)^2/sigma) to estimate an integral.
Is there a way to do it in R? Is there a function already implemented which
uses such weighting function.
I have been searching in the statmode package and I found the function
"gauss.quad(100, kind="hermite")" which uses the weighting
function
W(x)=exp(-x^2). Is there a more general version of this weighting function
(using mu and sigma)?

I have a feeling that this is an embarassingly simple fix, but I've been at
it for most of the morning and can't get things figured out.
I'm trying to work through some examples in Crawley's "The R
Book". I have installed packages and libraries as described in the book,
but when I try, for example:
data<-read.table("c:\\temp\\daphnia.txt", header=T)
I get:
Error in file(file, "rt") : cannot open the connection
In addition: Warning message:
In file(file, "rt") :
cannot open file 'c:\temp\daphnia.txt': No such file or directory
There is nothing in my c:\temp folder, so I'm not suprised that it
doesn't work, but I can't for the life of me figure out which package or
library I will need to gain access to this and other data files used in this
book.
Thanks in advance,

Your seq() needs to index the elements of temp.
Something like
axis(1, at = temp[seq(...)], ...)

Message-ID: <4BC73D46.23462.5D58D8C@r-project.michael-stegh.com>
Content-Type: text/plain
Dear List,
I have data which contain the special German characters "ä",
"ö", "ü" etc. After reading the
text files into R those characters are displayed strangely, e. g. "ä"
is "ä". The first step is to
replace those with their typical transcription, e. g. "ä" becomes
"ae" by using the gsub
command.
Until I upgraded to version 2.10.1 (from 2.8.0) this worked perfectly for all
characters. Now it
works for all characters but "Ü".
temp1<-gsub("Ãoe","Ue",temp1)
This letter is displayed as "Ãoe" (as before), but R is no longer able
to find this character. The
problem seems to be linked to the "oe" part, since I could substitute
for "Ã" without a problem.
Strangely if I get the two characters by extracting them with the substr command
to a variable
and then using the variable I am able to substitute without a problem. Any
ideas, what I am
missing?
Thanks,
Michael

This would appear to be more a problem with you lack of understanding
regarding the file management utilities of Windows. In Linux or a Mac
you could use the locate function to track down where the file ended
up, but surely whatever Windows version you have allows such searching.

Thanks David, but I have searched my hard drive using the search utility in
Windows (not just c:\temp - the whole drive) for the file in question and it is
not there. I have also used:
data() to see the names of all dataframes in the datasets package as well as:
data(package=.packages(all.available=TRUE)) to see all available data sets
Both methods provide an extensive list, but not "daphnia.txt"

Let me just add that a valid test of whether any of the variables or
interactions is associated with Y is to formulate a model with all the
parameters in it and to use the global F test.
Stepwise techniques such as you are being asked to use are not
scientific. If the true R^2 (which you do not know) is not high, the
low signal:noise ratio makes the data incapable to telling you the
"right" variables to include with any reliability. Unfortunately,
most
teachers of statistics do not understand this point, so you might be
graded off for providing the right answer.

I don't know what else is wrong, but do you really want
a shape parameter equal to 28? gamma(28) is about 10^28.
That's not a model I would trust.

Very kewl. On a Mac the greyscale plots opened in Adobe Acrobat Reader
v8.2.2 displays properly, but the color version supp_j.pdf looks like
a m?nage ? trois of three psychedelic sea urchins. I think that Adobe
may need to do some work on their display engine for this to be a
fully cross-platform combination. The color version of the volcano
example is likewise carpeted with spiky artifacts.
(I have not yet tried producing plots de novo with the Mac pdf device.)

A google search suggested that it was at one time available here, and
testing shows that it still is:
http://www.bio.ic.ac.uk/research/mjcraw/therbook/data/Daphnia.txt
Looking inside the first few pages of the book, it appears this should
have been accessible from the book's associated website. I bought the
book several months ago, but it has remained mostly unused because I

Subject: [R] Unwanted boxes in legend
Message-ID: <BAY135-W26F077F8761892FA58BF09880F0@phx.gbl>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"
Dear all,
I am using the following code to generate a legend in my plot (consisting of
both bars and points), but end up with boxes around my points:
legend(10, par("usr")[4], c("A", "B",
"C", "D"), fill=c(NA,NA, "grey28", NA),
pch=c(16,4,NA,18),
col=c("red","blue","grey28","yellow"),
lty=FALSE, bty="n", horiz=FALSE)
I want a box around the third element of the legend (to represent the bar
'fill' colour), but not for the others, where points are shown instead.
What am I doing wrong above and how do I correct it?
Many thanks,
Steve

I never had seen someone using a density function for a mean function in
nonlinear regression. The convergence problem observed can be due the model
derivatives respect to the parameters. How could computationally be
d.gamma/d.alpha? digamma function? Does R understand this?
If your phenomena exhibit a gamma density form you could use a mean function
like:
fun <- function(x, alpha, beta, theta){
x*(alpha+beta*x)^(-1/theta)
}
da <- data.frame(x=1:20)
da$y <- fun(da$x, 1, 2, 0.9)+rnorm(da$x,0,0.001)
plot(y~x, da)
curve(fun(x, 1,2,0.9), 1, 100, add=TRUE)
n0 <- nls(y~fun(x, alpha, beta, theta), data=da,
start=list(alpha=1, beta=2, theta=0.9))
Or you can use a gamma density without the integration equal one. So, you
can replace the gamma(alpha) for B term:
gammafun <- function(x, alpha, B, b){
(1/B)*alpha^b*x^(b-1)*exp(-x/alpha)
}
curve(gammafun(x, 5, 1, 2), 0, 20)
da <- data.frame(x=1:20)
da$z <- gammafun(da$x, 5, 1, 2)+rnorm(da$x,0,1)
plot(z~x, da)
curve(gammafun(x, 5, 1, 2), add=TRUE)
n1 <- nls(z~gammafun(x, alpha, B, b), data=da,
start=list(alpha=5, B=1, b=2))
Sincerely.

Your example of "?" is what you would see if you stored it in UTF-8
encoding, then read it in Latin1. So I suspect you need to declare the
encoding of the files you are reading before reading them. You can do
this as follows:
con <- file("foo.txt", encoding="UTF-8",
open="r")
readLines(con)
close(con)
By default, R assumes the encoding of files matches the default encoding
on your system. > Until I upgraded to version 2.10.1 (from 2.8.0) this worked perfectly for

You might want to try perl=TRUE in the gsub() call; it seems to handle
strange characters in regular expressions better than the default TRE
library does.

Subject: [R] fixed portion of lme4 model in newdata
Message-ID: <alpine.OSX.2.01.1004151229020.2838@sphbstr3083-2.local>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"; Format="flowed"
Suppose we have
? An lmer{lme4} model, MyModel, computed on dataframe SomeDATA;
? Dataframe NEWDATA, which contains the variables used in computing
MyModel, but different values for these variables.
In NEWDATA I would like to compute (in an automated, quick, easy,
non-error-prone manner) the fitted values of the fixed portion of the model.
Also I want to compute the standard errors for these fits.
One use of this would be to display graphically the fitted portion of an lmer
model so as to see the "effects" of selected variables. For instance,
such a display would be useful for judging the *practical* significance of
variables that have tested as *statistically* significant.
To this end, I would like to obtain (in an automated manner) the "design
matrix" of the model for the NEWDATA, say NEWDATA_designMatrix. Then the
fits would be
NEWDATA_designMatrix %*% cbind(fixef(MyModel))
and the variance of the fits
NEWDATA_designMatrix %*% vcov(MyModel) %*% t(NEWDATA_designMatrix)
Are not model.frame() and model.matrix() the way to obtain
NEWDATA_designMatrix? Below is an unsuccessful attempt to use these functions.
Can anyone explain how to obtain the desired result?
# Simulate unbalanced longitudinal data which include a factor (categorical
predictor).
set.seed(5)
obsPerID<-5
N_ID<-10
SomeDATA<-data.frame(
ID=rep( 1:N_ID, each=obsPerID)
, X=rnorm( obsPerID * N_ID )
, categ=factor(sample(LETTERS[1:3], size=obsPerID * N_ID, replace=T))
)
SomeDATA$Y <- SomeDATA$X + SomeDATA$ID + rnorm( obsPerID * N_ID ) / 2 +
ifelse(SomeDATA$categ=="C", 5, 0)
SomeDATA<-SomeDATA[order(SomeDATA$ID, SomeDATA$X),]
print(summary(SomeDATA))
library(lattice)
print(
xyplot( Y ~ X | categ, groups=ID, data=SomeDATA, type="l"
, layout=c(3,1)
)
)
# I would like to easily slap the fixed portion of the fits of a regression
model on top of this plot.
library(lme4)
MyModel<-lmer( Y ~ X + categ + (1|ID), data=SomeDATA)
print(MyModel)
# Create an orderly NEWDATA.
N_NEWDATA<-7
NEWDATA<-data.frame(
X=seq(-2, 2, length=N_NEWDATA)
, ID=2
, categ=factor(
sample(c("A", "C"), replace=T, size=N_NEWDATA)
, levels=levels(SomeDATA$categ))
, Y=0
)
NEWDATA$nuisance<-sample(1:3, replace=T, size=nrow(NEWDATA))
print(NEWDATA)
NEWDATA_frame<-model.frame( formula=formula(MyModel), data=NEWDATA)
print(NEWDATA_frame)
# The following generates an error:
NEWDATA_matrix<-model.matrix( object=formula(MyModel), data=NEWDATA_frame)
# The following does not conform to NEWDATA but instead reverts to SomeDATA:
NEWDATA_matrix<-model.matrix( object=MyModel, data=NEWDATA_frame)
print(NEWDATA_matrix)

Subject: [R] Rserve : CStack usage too close to the limit
Message-ID: <4BC74EC7.5050209@ens-lyon.fr>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed
Hi,
I use the Rserve package (RserveEngine.jar) and
the Java client (REngine.jar) from Rforge.
I manipulate R matrices from within Java.
When calling a R function from the Java client on
a R matrix, Rserve gives an error :
"CStack too close to the limit"
That error happens when the matrix has a minimum
size (about 29x10000).
Here is the Java stacktrace I obtain from the execution :
org.rosuda.REngine.Rserve.RserveException: eval failed
at org.rosuda.REngine.Rserve.RConnection.eval(RConnection.java:233)
at main(ConnectToRserve.java:17)
When I call the same function from within R, with
exactly the same environment (I dumped my matrix in a file
which is then loaded in R), there is no error.
Thus, I believe the error comes from the Rserve protocol.
I have written a small Groovy script producing the error.
It is attached to this mail. Please contact me if you want
the complete matrix dump also.
I have already tried to contact Simon Urbanek, the author
of RServe, one month ago. Without success.
Does someone has encountered (and resolved) the same problem as me ?
Is there a more robust alternative to Rserve ?
Before beginning to work to bind the whole R core to the JVM, I would
like to explore all the possibilities to connect to R seamless.
If you know a more appropriate list for that kind of request, I would be
glad to know it.
Thanks for your help,
Matthieu Decorde

Message-ID: <4BC750AB.2010004@uottawa.ca>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed
Brian Ripley pointed out that the library() documentation (third screen,
however) says
that library() and require() check current environment to see if a package is
loaded and
only load if it is not present. I may have oversimplified, and clarifications
welcome. But
this is clearly NOT what I want, since I need the latest package version to
test.
Tentative solution is outlined, but suggestions welcome on string cleanup issue
mentioned.
As I need to remove a package and its dependencies before reloading, I can use
tool::pkgDepends to get a list.
I found that a character string extracted from the dependency vector gives
'invalid name'
error in detach(). That is, I can create a variable
myfoo="package:foo", but detach(myfoo)
gives the error while typing detach("package:foo") works fine.
Workaround seems to be
slist<-search()
idx<-which(slist==myfoo)
detach(idx)
There's still a nuisance issue of how to strip off the (>=0.7.11)
descriptors in the
dependency list. strsplit() will work, but I seem to need to loop through the
list to use
it when only some of the packages are restricted by qualifiers.
If someone has already dealt with this type of issue, I'd be happy to know.
For example,
if there is a forceLoad() somewhere, it would save the effort above and could be
useful
for developers to ensure they are using the right version of a package.

Thanks again David. Looking again I now see the last line of the
Acknowledgements which directs the reader to the author's website to get the
datafiles. Of all the places I thought to look I had never considered reading
the Acknowlegements! It seems to be that moving it about one line farther in
the book - into the "Getting Started" chapter - would have been a
better idea! Oh well, I have highlighted the website for future users of my

The replace function does not work with factors, it works with
(complete) vectors, not substrings. It's also a real hassle to do such
operations on factors, so just use character vectors and try gsub
instead:

Add the 'border' argument:

I have no idea how to do this.

Thanks for your pointer. I looked into "Applied Regression Analysis"
by Draper and Smith, and the ridge trace solution can be obtained
efficiently by expressing it in canonical form. It could be coded
without much difficulty, but I'm just wondering if there's any package
which has already implemented this (or other) efficient way of
returning a solution path for a sequence of regularization parameter?
The function provided by MASS computes the solution individually for
each value of the parameter. A quick look into the parcor and
penalized packages seems to be promising, but I need to check the
source code to see if they really implement an efficient algorithm as
desired. Any input to this would be much appreciated.
Thanks again.

Thank you, that was it. I thought that my version of Acrobat Reader

the plots correctly. Now I get quite lovely orientable images.

Thanks Mr.Winsemius for the proposed solution ,it worked fine.But when came
to the entire data frame containing 400000 rows ,i used the following code
as proposed by you
a$date1<-gsub("/","-",a$date)
got the following error:
Error in `$<-.data.frame`(`*tmp*`, "date1", value = character(0)) :
replacement has 0 rows, data has 441906
Please provide solution with the problem.
Thanks.

Subject: [R] nested (hierarchical) anova
Message-ID: <4BC759EA.15172.DBDF3B@hvillalo.ipn.mx>
Content-Type: text/plain
Hi,
I'm having difficulty to replicate in R a nested (hierarchical) anova
example found in p. 308 of
Zar, J.H. 1996. Bostatistical Analysis. Prentice Hall. 3rd ed.
The example (15.1) is as follows:
The variable is blood cholesterol concentration in women (in mg/100 ml of
plasma). This
variable was measured after the administration of one of three different drugs,
each drug
having been obtained from two sources
DRUG 1 DRUG 2 DRUG 3
A Q D B L S
102 103 108 1091 104 105
104 104 110 1082 106 107
Zar results are these:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Source of variation SS DF MS F P
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
*Total 71.67 11
*Among all subgroups 62.67 5
*Groups 61.17 2 30.58 61.16 0.0037
*Subgroups 1.50 3 0.50 0.33 0.80
*Error 9.00 6 1.50
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is straightforward to follow the equations from the book step by step to
obtain those results.
Now, when trying the 'aov()' function in R:
## creating the data frame
zar <- data.frame(
cChol=c(102, 104, 103, 104, 108, 110, 109, 108, 104, 106, 105, 107),
drug=gl(3, 4, 12),
dsource=gl(6, 2, 12, labels=c("A", "Q",
"D", "B", "L", "S")) )
## This gives the relevant SS, DF and MS values, but only the F and P
corresponding to drug
## effect (Zar's Groups)
summary( aov(cChol ~ drug + Error(dsource/drug), data=zar) )
## The F and P values corresponding to subgroups can be obtained by:
0.5/1.5 # F
pf(0.5/1.5, 3, 6, lower.tail=FALSE) # P
## or from the second row in the two way anova:
summary( aov(cChol ~ drug + dsource, data=zar) )
In order to avoid confussion in our students (and myself!) I wonder if we can
obtain the
desired results in one step?
Thank you in advance for your kind help.

Is there anything that speaks against just applying gsub to the factor
levels if one would like to keep everything as factors (and not consider
true Date classes or character vectors)? I.e:
> x <- c("2000/01/01", "2001/02/01")
> xd <- as.data.frame(x)
> levels(xd$x) <- gsub("/", "-", levels(xd$x))

Nothing. Other than the fact (which is not at all obvious to the new
useRs) that it requires knowledge that the string representations are
stored within the factor levels and not the factor values, and that
operations on factors are often quite puzzling to the uninitiated. If
one were to attempt applying a function that takes Date or Datetime
arguments to such a "date-like-factor", it is very likely that the
initial results would be failures. The OP referred to the strings as a
"date value" rather than as a factor level. I doubt that he realized
the default operation of as.data.frame().

ffdf are ff's aquivalent to data.frames: they handle many rows (2^31-1) and
a limited number of columns (with potentially different
column types). Like data.frames, they are not suitable for millions of columns.
You probably want to store your data in one big ff matrix.
If you use ff objects because you don't have the RAM for standard R objects,
converting ff to a data.frame is not an option because it will require too much
RAM.
If 'discretize' expects a data.frame, you cannot call it on an ff matrix
either. But if 'discretize' works on single columns, you can call
discretize on chunks of columns that you coerce to data.frames.
?
something like
for (i in chunk(from=1, to=ncol(ffmat), by=10))
ffmat[,i] <- as.matrix(discretize(as.data.frame(ffmat[,i])))
?
If discretize returns integers, you might want to write the results rather to an
integer ff matrix because this saves disk space and improves caching.

Or here is a way to plot against one of the variables while interactively
changing the other one:
library(TeachingDemos)
myfun <- function(x,y) sin(x^2) * cos(y^2)
myfun2 <- function(y) curve( myfun(x,y), from=-pi, to=pi, ylim=c(-1,1) )
tkexamp( myfun2,
list( y=list('slider', from=-pi, to=pi, resolution=2*pi/50, init=0)
) )

Thanks Gabor, I had not thought of using environments like that. It looks like
it can be done even simpler:
fun3 <- function() {
e <- environment()
tmp <- matrix( nrow=0, ncol=2 )
fun4 <- function(x) {
e$tmp <- rbind(e$tmp, x)
(x[1] - 3)^2 + (x[2]-5)^2
}
out <- optim( c(0,0), fun4 )
list( out=out, vals=tmp )
}
tmp <- fun3()
plot( tmp$vals, type='l' )
Now I can start removing all the "<<-"s from my code.

Often memory errors occurs if the size of the heap is to small on the java
side.
Try to start your application with more memory:
e.g.: java -Xmx512M yourprogramm
i hope this info helps.

Message-ID: <4BC77E61.2080502@yorku.ca>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed
I'm pleased to announce the release of the vcdExtra package, v. 0.5-0
from R-Forge to CRAN, on its way to a CRAN server near you.
vcdExtra was originally designed to serve as a sandbox for introducing
extensions of mosaic plots and other visualizations for categorical
data, particularly those that apply to (poisson surrogate)
loglinear models fitted using glm() and
related, generalized nonlinear models fitted with gnm() in the gnm
package. See package?vcdExtra for information and an overview.
Heather Turner, Achim Zeileis and Duncan Murdoch contributed substantially
to the latest release.
In addition, it contains a tutorial vignette,
"Working with categorical data with R and the vcd package",
vignette("vcd-tutorial", package = "vcdExtra")
many new data sets (with worked examples), and a collection of demos
illustrating things that didn't fit into the standard .Rd format.
New in recent releases are:
o An initial implementation of 3D mosaic plots, using the rgl package. See
?mosaic3d, example(mosaic3d) and demo("mosaic3d-hec").
o The method mosaic.glm extends the mosaic.loglm method in the vcd
package to wider class of models fit using glm() and gnm() for
non-negative
responses. There are also extensions of association plots (assoc) and
sieve
diagrams (sieve) for these models. See demo("mental-glm"),
demo("vision-quasi")
and others.
o Some initial steps in collecting, handling and summarizing sets of
related
glm() and loglm() models provided by the functions glmlist(), loglmlist()
summarize() methods, Kway() for fitting all k-way glm() models, etc.

Hello Everyone,
Learning about R and its wonderful array of functions. If it's not obvious,
I usually try to find out what a function stands for. I think this helps me
remember better.
One function that has me stumped is "sink." Can anyone tell me if this
stands for something?
Thanks,
Paul

In the kitchen, a sink is the place you put the dishes in. In
electronics, a sink is where the electrons go after they have made
their way through the circuitry ... also known as a "ground",
whereas
"sources" are the current inputs. There were a lot of EE types among
the original cadre of computer scientitsts. In the NIXen class of
OSes, there is a "pipe" operation, and I believe that the destination
file or device is probably called a "sink" by some. This leads me to
think that a hybrid argot of plumbing and circuitry analogies is the
likely origin of the term.

Hello,
I was wondering if there is a R function can be used for
multidimensional integration.
There used to be a package called "adapt", but it seems not available

The answer appears to be "no".
Going back to your original question though, you could just not fill the map.
I.e.
filled.contour(x,y,z,levels=c(2,4,6,8,10),plot.axes=map("worldHires",add=T))
Otherwise, you may have to do things the 'hard way': set up two regions,
draw a map in the
first, (here you can then use polygon to colour the ocean green, then overlay
the map
again), overlay your filled contour (perhaps again using polygon), then set up
the legend
in the other region.
Hope this helps,

It's going to work better if you offer a non-ambiguous version of your
data. Use dump or dput. If you use the dump route, then see the
Posting Guide example. If you use dput, then it is as simple as
dput(object).
Perhaps (if dfrm is the name of a dataframe):
dput(head(dfrm))

Sink is meant to mean send output to the location I specify. It has no hidden

So it probably was not a factor variable despite what you offered in
your previous example. The gsub function should be able to do the
conversion if it's a character vector, as in this example:
gsub("/","-",
read.table(textConnection("2000/01/01

2000/02/01
2000/10/01

2000/25/01
2000/26/01

The mode is a well defined concept for theoretical distributions, but much less
well defined when applied to data. Some attempts at getting the mode of data
actually returns a quirk of rounding rather than anything informative about the
data and the distribution that it represents. This is especially true when the
data is supposed to represent and underlying continuous distribution. If the
theorized distribution is discrete (Poisson, binomial, etc.) then the mode may
be more meaningful (but can still be the result of a quirk of rounding). For
discrete distributions you can just use the table function to get all the counts
and look for the largest (and look for other similar values to see if your
single "mode" is really meaningful). For continuous distributions you
need to decide what you really want and what level of approximation you are
willing to live with and what assumptions you are willing to make (one simple
approach is just look at the
[[elided Yahoo spam]]
lear peak, then that gives you a modal range).

This works fine .but with one more variable say xsd in the data frame i'm

The first thing to do is look at the help page for the function: ?qqnorm and
?qqmath, the package where these functions are defined is at the top of the
page, if that package is graphics then it is a base graphics function, if the
package is grid, lattice, or ggplot2 then it is grid based graphics. If you are
using a function from another package than listed already, then you will need to
do a bit more research.
Is your goal really to produce a whole set of normal qq plots from random data?
If so, you may be interested in the vis.test function in the TeachingDemos
package (and associated functions). One way to run this will mix together a
qqplot of your data along with data generated from a normal distribution with
the same mean and var so you can visually compare the plot of your data to plots
of normal (and then lets you try to choose which is the real data).
If this was just an example, then ignore the above paragraph.
Hope this helps,

HI Duncan and R users,
Duncan, thank you for taking the time to respond. I've had several
other comments off the list, and I'd like to summarize what these have
to say, although I won't give sources since I assume there was a
reason why people chose not to respond to the whole list. The long and
short of it is that there is hope for people who want R to get beyond
the 2^31-1 vector size limit.
First off, I received a couple of responses from people who wanted to
commiserate and me to summarize what I learned. Here you go.
Second, the package bigmemory and ff can both help with memory issues.
I've had success using bigmemory before, and found it to be quite
intuitive.
Third, one knowledgeable responder doubted that changing the 2^31-1
limit would 'break' old datasets. He says, "This might be true for
isolated cases of objects stored in binary formats or in workspaces,
but I don't see that as anywhere near as important as the change you
(and we) would like to see."
Fourth, another knowledgeable responder felt it was likely that, given
the demand driven by the huge increases in dataset sizes, this
limitation would likely be overcome within the next few years.
Best,
Matt

There is one thing that would definitely break. Quite a bit of compiled code
relies on the fact that the R integer type and the type used to index arrays and
the C int type are the same. The C int type won't change, so if the type
used to index arrays changes, the R integer type will be different from at least
one of them.
Suppose you now write .C("foo", as.double(x), as.integer(length(x)))
to call a C function
void foo(double* x, int* n)
If length(x) could be larger than 2^31, then this isn't going to work --
either as.integer() will fail, or it will succeed and produce a value that
doesn't fit in an int.

ffdf are ff's aquivalent to data.frames: they handle many rows (2^31-1) and
a limited number of columns (with potentially different
column types). Like data.frames, they are not suitable for millions of columns.
You probably want to store your data in one big ff matrix.
If you use ff objects because you don't have the RAM for standard R objects,
converting ff to a data.frame is not an option because it will require too much
RAM.
If 'discretize' expects a data.frame, you cannot call it on an ff matrix
either. But if 'discretize' works on single columns, you can call
discretize on chunks of columns that you coerce to data.frames.
something like
for (i in chunk(from=1, to=ncol(ffmat), by=10))
ffmat[,i] <- as.matrix(discretize(as.data.frame(ffmat[,i])))
If discretize returns integers, you might want to write the results rather to an
integer ff matrix because this saves disk space and improves caching.

Message-ID: <1271366358977-1934326.post@n4.nabble.com>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Hi,
I was wondering if any Ggboi experts have encountered the following.
I have data in csv that I want to plot with lines in ggobi. Unfortunately,
there is some kind of information missing that xml seems to contain. I.e. I
can plot scatterplots with dots using csv input, but not connect with lines.
Any ideas on how to convert to xml, or modify the csv file to get the
information?
P.S. An example in csv can be a simple time series with 3 embedded delay
values for columns, for example.
thanks.

Hello,
I'm working on a very large project in which we do many calculations which
include many types of regression such as, Liner, Quadratic, Cubic,
Exponential, Sinusoidal, and Logarithmic. Im well aware that its easy enough
to do Linear regression in R but what about the other types? I've been
searching on google for such functions but to no avail.
Thank you,

What operating system are you using?
What is "C++ 6.0"?
What do you mean by "release" and "debug". How do these
settings alter the
invocation of the compiler?
The answers to these questions can help us provide insight on your first
question.
For your last question, on UNIX/Linux platforms gcc is invoked by R CMD
SHLIB with the flags specified in $R_HOME/etc/<system
architecture>/Makeconf
. Important entries are:
SHLIB_CFLAGS
SHLIB_CXXFLAGS
SHLIB_FFLAGS
Hope this helps.

Subject: [R] factors as bwplot x axis
Message-ID: <4BC7B1D1.9070604@gmail.com>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"
Dear List,
I am having problems getting my box and whisker plots to put boxes on
the right x-axis values.
x is the hour of the day from 0 to 23.> unique(mdf$OnHour)
[1] 5 4 6 7 11 12 9 8 19 14 13 21 20 10 18 17 15 16 23 22 0 1 3 2
mdf$OnHFact = factor(mdf$OnHour, levels=seq(0,23),
labels=as.character(seq(0,23)), exclude=NULL, ordered=TRUE)
I know there are data points for OnHFact=="0", but they do not appear
on
the plot. The other data seem to be at their correct locations.
hrs = seq(0, 23, 1)
hrlabs = as.character(seq(0,23,1))
g = bwplot((gdf$tt)~gdf$OnHFact | gdf$Runway, data=gdf,
ylab="Taxi time (min)",
main=title, xlab="Hour of day",
par.strip.text=list(cex=0.7), rot=90, #xlim=c(0, 24),
scales=list(x = list(rot=90, cex=.6, at=hrs, labels=hrlabs )),
panel = function(x, ...) {
panel.grid(h = -1, v = -1)
panel.bwplot(x, ...)
} )
print(g)
Is there a prohibition of having a factor with a level of 0? If so, how
do I get around this?
I was also surprised that if I replace gdf$OnHFact by gdf$OnHour
(integers) in the above bwplot call, the plot flips and I get horizontal
whiskers of OnHour values for different tts.
So I am confused, and hope you kind people can help. I attach the zipped
dput gdf file
Thanks,
Jim Rome

Sink captures R output and directs it elsewhere- common places are a file or
device such as /dev/null
Personally it always connected with the concept of a "sink" in a
mathematical system as something that removes constituants from the system.

I think this requires you to just pick up a manual / introductory book on
R/regression in R, of which there are many on the internet / in the
bookstores, respectively. Every manual I have seen has at least examples for
quadratics. And extensions to other functional forms are straightforward.

It probably means that t1 had NAs. look at the content of t1 at the point
of the error. You might want to test to see if there is an NA in t1 before
the test.

Content-Type: text/plain; CHARSET=US-ASCII
There are some exciting new options available now in R for multidimensional
integration also known as cubature.
There is the "cubature" package, which is an R-port by Bala Narasimhan
of the C code by Steve Johnson on adaptive multidimensional integration. This
is very similar to "adapt" which was R-port of the Fortran code by
Alan Genz.
see: http://ab-initio.mit.edu/wiki/index.php/Cubature
There is also an exciting new package called "R2Cuba" by Annie
Bouvier, which is an R port of the Cuba library of codes by Tom Hahn. This
package has 4 different cubature algorithms.
Hope this helps,
Ravi.

Hi all,
I'm just tried to start analysing some micro-array chips. And R was

Installing Bioconductor version 2.5 packages:

Please wait...

What do I wrong and where can I get this package from?

start, end, frequency and deltat functions have methods for both ts
and zoo objects. Its not a good idea to tsp for ts objects since it
involves mucking with internals.

Ask questions about bioconductor packages on the Bioconductor mailing list.
http://bioconductor.org/docs/mailList.html
From
http://bioconductor.org/packages/release/AnnotationData.html
I suspect you want
biocLite('hugene10stv1.r3cdf')
This thread
https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/bioconductor/2010-April/032704.html
might also be relevant.

Thanks for your response. I found the folder to modify the compiler for C
source codes. C++ 6.0 is an old C programming environment (1994~1998) but
it is efficient. When compiling C source codes in C programming
environment, one needs to choose between "debug" or
"release" modes.
"release" mode is much faster than "debug" mode. But in
R's "R CMD SHLIB",
I did not see such an option.
I want to try alternative compilers to see if I can reach that level of
efficiency in R's DLL. Later, I may try using "OPENMP" in my C
codes to do
parallel computing. So I need to figure out how to change compiler to

That's true for just one family of compilers in my experience.

Then I suspect you did not look in the obvioud place (mentioned on
the help page), for I see
% R CMD SHLIB --help
...
Windows only:
-d, --debug build a debug DLL
An optimized ('release') build is standard, and in any case gcc is
capable of both optimizing and including debug information, unlike
some other compilers. With gcc debug code is normally the same speed,
just a larger compiled file.

This is *your* DLL, not one in R, surely? Note that people have
compiled R with Visual C++ 6.0 (to use the correct name) and it ran
slower and less accurately than using gcc. So finding VC++ to produce
faster code is not usual, and this seems to be something special about
your C code. The default level of optimization for gcc in R for
Windows is -O3, and you could try raising it: also if you want to
target only recent non-Atom chips set -tune= appropriately.
x86 is a very widely used architecture with a competitive field of
commercial compilers. On Linux (and AFAIK on Windows) gcc produces
some of the best-performing code (see the comments in the 'R
Administration and Installation Manual'). Most of the ways to produce
faster code lose compliance with IEC60559 and accuracy (VC++ 6 never
has those). And the same code compiled with gcc runs on the same
hardware only slightly slower on Windows than on Linux unless I/O is
involved (where Windows is much slower).

gcc 4.2.1 supports OpenMP, and later versions support it better
(OpenMP 3).

A DLL is a DLL: you can compile it any way you like (although cdecl
calling conventions work best, and compilers do differ in their
conventions for function return values -- but those are not used in
the .C interface). There is a file README.packages in the R
distribution with notes about using other compilers under Windows --
but the R developers have not used other than VC++ and Intel's ICC
(not mentioned there) for several years.

Students are often looking at the wrong place. It's not intuitive that
quadratic, cubic can be found under "lm", because these are often
termed
"non-linear" in basic university courses.

Also, note that 'sink' has nothing to do with floating point numbers...

thanks thierry,
i considered this transformations already, but variance is not stabilized
and/or normality is neither achieved.
i guess i'll have to look out for non-parametrics?
best regards,
kay

I am looking at summarize it in something like this :

2 PRM HGH GD ALU 0 2010-04-09
3 SPCL HIGH GRAD 2 2010-04-09
4 STANDARD LEAD 0 2010-04-06
To obtain "op", I wrote this following line :
> op=ddply(df, c("DESCRIPTION"), summarise,
POSITIONsum(QUANITY),DATE=max(CREATED.DATE)).
Until there, fine. But I need to have one more column,
"CLOSING.PRICE". If I
write this line :
> op1=ddply(c, c("DESCRIPTION","CLOSING.PRICE"),
summarise, POSITIONsum(QUANITY),DATE=max(CREATED.DATE))
Here is what I get:
> op1
DESCRIPTION CLOSING.PRICE POSITION DATE
1 PRIMARY NICKEL 25,755.7100 0 2010-03-05
2 PRIMARY NICKEL 25,760.8600 0 2010-03-10
3 PRM HGH GD ALU 2,415.9000 0 2010-04-09
4 SPCL HIGH GRAD 2,388.4300 0 2010-01-25
5 SPCL HIGH GRAD 2,420.7300 1 2010-04-08
6 SPCL HIGH GRAD 2,421.0500 1 2010-04-09
7 STANDARD LEAD 2,355.9600 -1 2010-04-01
8 STANDARD LEAD 2,357.1200 1 2010-04-06
Not exactly what I want. Can anyone help?

Thanks for your suggestion Tal. Unfortunately, still no luck with me ...
still get the usual error message:
" Error in library(gplots) : there is no package called 'gplots'
", whatever
I try to install.
This is a mystery to me with respect to why /how. I am really stuck with
that problem.
Best,

Hi Vava,
What version of R are you using? I'm not sure but I think that R will
refuse to install a package in this way if the version of gplots is
incompatiable with the version of R you're using. You can check the
depends of packages on CRAN.
Regards,
James

Hello,
how can I return the name of a variable, say "a$b", from a function?
fun <- function(x){
return(substitute(x));
}
a <- data.frame(b=1:10);
fun(a$b)
... returns a$b, but this is a type language, thus I can't use it as a
character string, can I? How?
Thanks for help,
