Hi I am using the heatmap function in package mva to look at large correlation matrices visually. Is there any way to "flip" the output of heatmap plot left-right so that, if presented with a correlation matrix, it plots the unity elements in the correlation matrix along a diagonal from top left to bottom right? For example: library(mva) x = matrix(rnorm(1000), ncol=10) z = cor(x)

The example from the help page for strptime has the following oddity: > dates <- c("02/27/92", "02/27/92", "01/14/92", + "02/28/92", "02/01/92") > times <- c("23:03:20", "22:29:56", "01:03:30", + "18:21:03", "16:56:26") > x <-

Hi I am using package RODBC version 1.0-1 under R version 1.7.1 on Windows XP Pro. I am having problems writing a new table to an (Excel) database using sqlSave. I connect to an empty Excel spreadsheet using odbcConnectExcel (which, I believe, uses the Microsoft Excel Driver DSN). Then I try and save a new table to the database(spreadsheet) using SqlSave, but obtain an error message. Below is

Hi Does anybody know of any R packages under Windows to produce video files from a sequence of R graphs -- e.g. in .wmv or avi format? Thanks David

Hi Does anyone know of any R code for estimating a *multivariate* state space model using a Kalman filter where the output matrix H(t) is time-varying but predictable (i.e. measurable w.r.t information at time t-1) in the observation equation y(t) = H(t) z(t) + R w(t)? [Here y(t) are the observations, z(t) is the state variable, w(t) the observation error and R R' the observation error

Hi Does anyone know of any automatic way of mapping out the dependencies of a function -- i.e. automatically listing which other functions that function calls? I tried using all.names or all.vars, but I can't get it to work on a function: e.g. > test = function(x, y) return(sin(x + y)*cos(x + y)) > all.names(expression(test)) [1] "test" I guess the problem is that all.names

Hello I am using Duncan Lang's RDCOM Client package (available on omegahat.org) under R 1.7.0 and Windows XP Pro. Is this the right forum for questions about this package? In case it is, here is my question: Instances of COM objects do not seem to terminate as expected, but leave residual processes running. For example, if I try the simple example: E <-

Hi Is there a way to specify the location on the screen where a new graphics device opens, for example with a call to win.graph()? I'm using R 1.7.0 on Windows XP. Thank you. Regards, David

Hi. I have the following question about reading from large data objects from within R functions; I have tried to simplify my problem as much as possible in what follows. Imagine I have various large data objects sitting in my global environment (call them "data1", "data2", ...). I want to write a function "extract" that extracts some of the rows of a particular

Hi Does anyone know of any R routines to send emails from R, under Windows? I thought about writing such a facility using the R(D)COM package to drive e.g. MS Outlook, but I don't want to reinvent the wheel. I have found a function Sys.mail in the library syskern, but this only works under Unix by shelling out a mail command. Thanks, David
