The beta version of turnpike 6 is out. I'm using it here, but under win4lin. A big point of the new version is that it uses windows explorer, and I had heard on the grapevine that it was therefore going to be a problem proggie for wine. I've tried running the v6 'connect' program under wine - that works fine (downloads a new newsgroup list, gets me an e-mail - when WILL I be

Versions 0.9975-1 of the Matrix and lme4 packages will soon be available on CRAN for use with R version 2.4.0 or later. Purpose of the packages: The Matrix package provides S4 classes and methods for sparse and dense matrices. The lme4 package provides functions for fitting and assessing linear or generalized linear mixed effects models (also called multilevel models). Like the Matrix package,

Dear R cognoscenti, While having NA as a native type is nifty, it is annoying when making binary choices. Question: Is there anything bad about writing comparison functions that behavior like %in% (which I love) and ignore NAs? "%>%" <- function(table, x) { return(which(table > x)) } "%&l...

...the first column in a dataframe does not necessarily get passed on when using cbind (example below)? I'm looking for help in clarifying why this behavior occurs, and how I can get all col names, including the first, passed on to the result?while I suspect it's obvious and documented to the cognoscenti, it's puzzling me? Many thanks for any help on this...

...hings simple. _Attach_ figures as *.pdf files, for instance. That being said, to answer your question, my advice (and that of many others) is: DON'T. Error bars on boxplots (such plots are sometimes known as "dynamite plots" or "detonator plots") are considered by the cognoscenti to be abominations. cheers, Rolf -- Technical Editor ANZJS Department of Statistics University of Auckland Phone: +64-9-373-7599 ext. 88276

...l as an assignment operator: S made a mistake but R doesn't have to. "="-as-assignment has to be hedged with all sorts of conditions to prevent ambiguities, and to have an operator which frequently can't be used doesn't seem helpful. Having it "grudgingly available to the cognoscenti" is not all that much better! (4) If deprecation is the first step on the road to removal and to "_" being allowed in unquoted variable names, then that would be tiresome. I have many hundreds of functions spanning thousands of lines of S/R code, filled with "_"s. I really...

Hi all, On the rails list I''ve seen that it''s hard to integrate Rails with Apache (especially apache2), that it''s hard to change the default port (3000), and that Apache runs Rails stuff slowly. Is it reasonable to run Rails stuff on Webrick while simultaneously running other stuff on Apache? How does one simultaneously run two rails applications on Webrick, when

Dear All R users, my name is Raffaella Tommasini and I 'm working with R version 1.1.1 I'd like to know if is possible plot "explosed-pie" with R.

I am trying to create a pixel image from the marks of a marked spatial point pattern for use with the Kinhom function in the spatstat library and am having some difficulty. Is there a way to create such an object using x-y coordinates and values at those coordinates? Many Thanks, Michael Lawton

Hi R users, I have a question about adding uncertainty bars to stacked bar plots. DF: year A B C Amin Amax Bmin Bmax Cmin Cmax 2009 40 45 15 30 61 23 56 14 17 2010 36 41 23 26 54 22 51 22 24 I use the code below: DF.refm = melt(subset(DF[,c(1:4)]),id.vars='year',variable_name='Legend') fig1 =

...trained to those questions that the SAS or SPSS programmer thought I might want to ask. I could end there, and we would probably all agree with what I have said to this point, but I want to push the issue a bit and say: it seems that Type III Sums of Squares are being unfairly maligned among the R cognoscenti. And the practical ramification of this is that it creates a good deal of confusion among those migrating from SAS/SPSS land into R - not that this should ever be a reason to introduce a flawed technique into R, but my argument is that type III sums of squares are not a flawed technique. In my rea...

Dear readers I would like to make General Linear Model (GLM) for the following data set http://louise.hoffman.googlepages.com/fuel.csv The code I have written is fuelData<-read.table('fuel.csv',header=TRUE, sep=',') n<-dim(fuelData)[1] xOnes<- matrix(1,nrow=n,ncol=1) x<-cbind(xOnes,fuelData[,3]) y<-fuelData[,4] theta<-((t(x)%*%x)^(-1))%*%t(x)%*%y which gives
