Hi, I have this string, in which I want to extract some of it's element: > x <- "Best-K Gene 11340 211952_at RANBP5 Noc= 3 - 2 LL= -963.669 -965.35" yielding this array [1] "211952_at" "RANBP5" "2" In Perl we would do it this way: __BEGIN__ my @needed =(); my $str = "Best-K Gene 11340 211952_at RANBP5 Noc= 3 - 2 LL= -963.669

I know that the first eigen value correspond to lambda or exponential growth rate of my population. My problem is that I want to have the 95% confidence interval of the

This news item in a data mining newsletter makes various claims for a technique called "Reduced Error Logistic Regression": http://www.kdnuggets.com/news/2007/n08/12i.html In brief, are these (ambitious) claims justified and if so, has this technique been implemented in R (or does anyone have any plans to do so)?

Dear All, I learned about R during my studies at Cologne University of Applied Science. Now I work at Allianz Dresdner Bauspar AG and I would like to install R here too. Is there any license issues that need to be taken in consideration, any fees to pay by the company? I know there are answers to this in the FAQs but I didn't really understand the legal language. Could you therefore just give
