Dear R users, I hope to explain the concepts of skewness and kurtosis by generating series of distributions with same skewness and different kurtosis or with same kurtosis and different skewness, but it seems that i cannot find the right functions. I have searched the mailing list, but no answers were found. Is it possible to do that in R? Which function could be used? Thanks a lot. --

Dear Rusers, I have some data in .csv file like "2004-8-1" and "2004-10-1", and i need to convert them into days from the origin (January 1, 1960). I have tried the function date.mmddyyyy(), but cannot get it. Anybody can show me how to handle the date data? Thanks very much! My dataset like: time 2004-8-1 2004-10-1 2001-9-1 2002-9-1 -- With Kind Regards,

Dear Ruser, I use abline() function to add the reference line successfully, but i can't display the values corresponding to the reference line on the x/y axis, anybody knows how to display it? *My simulated programs:* y<-rnorm(50) plot(x,y) abline(v=0.5) *#my question is how to display x=0.5 in the x axis?* Thanks in advance. -- With Kind Regards, oooO::::::::: (..):::::::::

Dear friends, The following is an example to explain my question. I want to get a legend which will show the z-values according to different colors in image() function. x<-sort(runif(10)) #x-coordinates y<-sort(runif(10)) #y-coordinates z<-matrix(runif(100),nrow=10) #attributes values image(x,y,z,col=gray((6:3)/6)) # legend(x,y,legend=z,col=gray((6:3)/6)) #error. the colors should

Dear R users, We have some programs for the specific task in our research, but they were very commonly used. We want to make some functions for them, anybody can recommend any good tools to facilitate us to create R functions even without going deep into the theories of R functions ? Any suggestions or help are greatly appreciated. -- With Kind Regards, oooO::::::::: (..):::::::::

Dear all, Some functions like 'ROC(Epi)' can be used to perform ROC analyssi, but it needs us to specify the fitting model in the argument. Now i have got the predicted p-values (0,1) for the 0/1 response variable using some other approach, see the following example dataset: id mark predict.pvalue 1 1 0.927 2 0 0.928 3 1 0.928 ..................

Dear all, I have two variables, y and x. It seems that the relationship between them is Piecewise Linear Functions. The cutpoint is 20. That is, when x<20, there is a linear relationship between y and x; while x>=20, there is another different linear relationship between them. How can i specify their relationships in R correctly? # glm(y~I(x<20)+I(x>=20),family = binomial, data =

Dear friends, Anybody has ever met the problem to add a legend to a figure generated by image()? I have three variables,x,y and z. x and y are the coordinates, and z is the third values. we can use image(x, y, z,...) to generate a figure according to the z-values, but the problem is the figure legend. How can the legend be added to a figure generated by image()? Note that filled.contour() can

...arent 2), b(i) are the regression coefficients and mu(0) is the mean phenotype of the F2 generation of hybrids (reference generation). Non-genetic components of variation are partitioned into individual (error) and block terms. Regression coefficients represent additive (b(S)), dominance (b(H)) and epistatic (b(SS), b(HH), b(SH)) effects of genetic differences between parental lineages. I fit a series, starting with the additive effect only and adding dominance and epistatic effects up to the full model and use AIC to choose the best model. The problem I'm facing is that there is a great deal of h...

Dear friends, My dataset have many zeros, so i must use fisher exact test . Unfortunately, the fisher.test(stats) function fail to do it. Anybody knows how to do the fisher exact test with many zeros in the dataset? My dataset is: a<-matrix(c(0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0,1,1,0,2,1,5,1,1,6,4,4,1,17,2,8,5,7,1,1,24,3,6,1,1,3,2,16,7,4,0,2,4,0,17,0,1,0,0,0,1,2),nrow=8,byrow=TRUE) data.frame(a)

Dear friends, After fitting a generalized linear models ,i hope to get the variance of alpha,variance of beta and their covariance, that is , the variance-covariance matrix/information of alpha and beta , suppose *B* is the object of GLMs, i use attributes(B) to look for the options ,but can't find it, anybody knows how to get it? > attributes(B) $names [1] "coefficients"

Dear friends, My dataset is like the following: x y mcpvalue 0.4603578 0.6247629 1.001 0.4603715 0.6247788 1.001 0.4603852 0.6247948 1.001 0.4110561 0.5664841 0.995 The x and y variables are unsorted. I use the function image(x,y,mcpvalue) to generate a plot, but the error is that "increasing 'x' and

Dear all, Following the help from gam(mgcv) help page, i tried to analyze my dataset with all the default arguments. Unfortunately, it can't be run successfully. I list the errors below. #m.gam<-gam(mark~s(x,y)+s(lstday2004)+s(slope)+s(ndvi2004)+s(elevation)+s(disbinary),family=binomial(logit),data=point)

Dear friends, In S-PLUS, we can use the following argument, but not in R. mode12 <- gam(score1 ~ lo(latitude) + lo(longitude)) I searched the help in S-PLUS, it says lo() Allows the user to specify a Loess fit in a GAM formula, but i didn't find the correponding function in R. Anybody knows how to do the similar task in R? Thanks very much. -- With Kind Regards, oooO:::::::::

Dear Rusers, My manuscript has been conditionally accepted recently. The problem to generate the high resolution figures in R for the manuscript cannot be solved by me. The journal editor ask me to generate the figures with a minimum resolution of 500 dpi. I have tried the *menu-driven method* to save the figures as JPEG (100% printed quality), but the results seem not to be very good. I have

Dear Rusers, My question is about "recode variables". First, i'd like to say something about the idea of recoding: My dataset have three variables:type,soiltem and airtem,which means grass type, soil temperature and air temperature. As we all known, the change of air temperature is greater than soil temperature,so the values in those two different temperaturemay represent different

Dear friends, After running the lm() model, we can get summary resluts like the following: Coefficients: Estimate Std.
