Hi, I read almost all I found in prior R-Help list about How to compare two regression line slopes. So, I made a didactic example to illustrate a solution cited by Ben Bolker: =============================================== Subject: Re: [R] How to compare two regression line slopes From: Ben Bolker (bol... at ufl.edu) Date: Jan 27, 2009 1:52:20 pm List: org.r-project.r-help

Hello, I want to compare a program before and after having run a FunctionPass. The purpose is merely didactic. What I would like to do is, during the runOnFunction() method, "save" somehow the instruction set and cfg of the function, run the optimization. and then compare the two codes, before and after the transformation. Is there an automatic way tho do that, or a suggested approach?

I wrote a R script say called computeCovarMatrix.R and i want to call and run this piece from Excel visual basic. does anyone know how to do that? thanks, KZ [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Subsetting from a dataframe with only one variable returns a vector, not a dataframe. This seems somewhat inconsistent. Wouldn't it be better if subsetting would respect the structure completely? v1<-1:4 v2<-4:1 df1<-data.frame(v1) df2<-data.frame(v1,v2) sel1<-c(TRUE,TRUE,TRUE,TRUE) > df1[sel1,] [1] 1 2 3 4 > df2[sel1,] v1 v2 1 1 4 2 2 3 3 3 2 4 4 1 -- Erich

...n other solutions trying out sapply and tapply, but did not succeed. Do I need to loop and put everything together by hand? But I want to keep the columnnames in the vector? -karsten --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Karsten D.

In the windows version (RGui), is there a way to set the text displayed in the titlebar of the R window? When I have 2 instances of RGui running, it would be helpul if the titlebar could help to understand which is which. -- Erich Neuwirth, Computer Supported Didactics Working Group Visit our SunSITE at http://sunsite.univie.ac.at Phone: +43-1-4277-38624 Fax: +43-1-4277-9386

hist(rbinom(1000,10,0.5),col=2,xlim=c(0,10),ylim=c(0,300)) gives a histogram with "touching bars" hist(rbinom(100000,10,0.5),col=2,xlim=c(0,10),ylim=c(0,30000)) gives a histogram with space between the bars. is there a way to control the space betweent he bars easily? -- Erich Neuwirth, Computer Supported Didactics Working Group Visit our SunSITE at http://sunsite.univie.ac.at

typeof applied to a factor always seems to return "integer", independently of the type of the levels. This has a strange side effect. When a variable is "imported" into a data frame, its type changes. character variables automatically are converted to factors when imported into data frames. Here is an example: > v1<-1:3 >

FWIW, before all the examples are changed to data frame variants, I think there's fairly good reason to have at least _one_ example that does _not_ place variables in a data frame. The data argument in lm() is optional. And there is more than one way to manage data in a project. I personally don't much like lots of stray variables lurking about, but if those are the only variables out

I have a big contingency table, approximately of size 60*2*500*500, and I need to count the number of cells containing a count of 1 for each of the factors values defining the first dimension. Here is my attempt: tab1<-with(pisa1,table(CNT,GENDER,ISCOF,ISCOM)) tab2<-apply(tab1,1:4,function(x)ifelse(sum(x)==1,1,0)) tab3<-apply(tab2,1,sum) Computing tab2 is very slow. Is there a faster

You can put just a single pass in the PassManager to

My configuration is Windows XP, R-2.5.1patched. My standard browser in Windows is Firefox 2.0.6, and I am using htmlhelp. I have problems with starting the browser for displaying help. help("lm") works as it should when Firefox is already running. When I do help("lm") and the browser is not yet started, I get Error in shell.exec(url) :

I do not know if this has been reported already (I searched the headers of the recent messages to r-devel) It seems that 'example' in R 2.11.0 has a problem when the help file does not contain any example.
