I am just about working through Faraways excellent tutorial "practical regression and ANOVA using R" on page 24 he makes the x matrix: x <- cbind(1,gala[,-c(1,2)]) how can I understand this gala[,-c(1,2)])... I couldn't find an explanation of such "c-like" abbreviations anywhere. thanks for a hint. another...

Dear R- users and Helpers: I downloaded the package from www.stat.lsa.umich.edu/~faraway/book and installed it from local zip file. It looked fine. But when I input library(faraway) it showed " Error in library(faraway) : 'faraway' is not a valid package --- installed < 2.0.0? What I used is R 2.0.0 version now. What should I do? Thank you very much. Xin

In Julian Faraway's text on pgs 117-119, he gives a very nice, pretty simple description of how a glm can be thought of as linear model with non constant variance. I just didn't understand one of his statements on the top of 118. To quote : "We can use a similar idea to fit a GLM. Roughly speaking,...

Hi R community! I am analyzing the data set "motorins" in the package "faraway" by using the generalized additive model. it shows the following error. Can some one suggest me the right way? library(faraway) data(motorins) motori <- motorins[motorins$Zone==1,] library(mgcv) >amgam <- gam(log(Payment) ~ offset(log(Insured))+ s(as.numeric(Kilometres)) + s(Bonus) +...

Hi, I suggest to give a look to: ?Practical Regression and Anova using R? by Julian Faraway http://cran.r-project.org/doc/contrib/Faraway-PRA.pdf http://www.stat.lsa.umich.edu/~faraway/book/ see also package faraway for datasets: http://cbio.uct.ac.za/CRAN/src/contrib/Descriptions/faraway.html for some econometric data sets: http://www.oswego.edu/~kane/econometrics/data.htm for data...

Faraway's book titled "Practical Regression and Anova using R", with full text available online at: http://cran.r-project.org/doc/contrib/Faraway-PRA.pdf refers to a data set, stat500, which compares midterm and final grades. It can be used to illustrate similar concepts. A google sea...

I'm still relatively new to R, so my apologies if this is covered somewhere. I've been running some mixed-effect models in R using lme{nlme}, but read in Faraway's recent book, Extending the Linear Model with R, that lmer in package lme4 is a much improved version. I tried using this approach, but the output for the fixed effects doesn't report a p-value or the degrees of freedom (unlike the examples listed in Faraway's book, which I tried and...

Hello, I have compared the potentials of R and Stata about GLMM, analysing the dataset 'ohio' in the package 'faraway' (the same dataset is analysed with GEE in the book 'Extending the linear model with R' by Julian Faraway). Basically, I've tried the 2 commands 'glmmPQL' and 'glmer' of R and the command 'xtmelogit' of Stata. If I'm not wrong, 'glmer' uses the La...

I am looking for a book that discusses the theory of multiple imputation (and other methods of dealing with missing data) and, just as importantly, how to implement these methods in R or S-Plus. Ideally, the book would have a structure similar to Faraway (Regression), Pinheiro&Bates (Mixed Effects) and Wood (GAMs) and would be very modern (i.e. published within the last couple of years). Any ideas? If such a book does not exist, one of the experts on this help list should write it! (I will gladly buy the first copy.) Brant Inman Mayo Clini...

Dear all, I hope to know how to compile the R help file in LaTeX format under Windows 2000. The TeX/LaTeX system is TeXLive 2002, and the version of R is 1.8.x. Another question, I hope to get the upright Greek letters, just as these in Prof. Faraway's book "Practical Regression and Anova in R", but I don't know which package(s) and/or font(s) should be used in LaTeX. Any reply and suggestion will be appreciated. TIA. Regards, Jinsong _________________________________________________________

...course in > statistics. > > Thanks in advance, > > Gil (I'm redirecting this to the general R list, since it's not particularly Mac specific any more.) Despite your claim, there are statistics-oriented tutorials available in the "other docs" section (esp. Faraway and Fox). However, if I recall correctly and if you need split-plot ANOVA etc., these may not be quite advanced enough (statistically) for you (Faraway has about 5 pages on block designs). You may need to buy or borrow a book: I would recommend Crawley's books (Statistics: an Introduction...

...n-R question. Can anyone point me to a good reference on logistic regression? web or book references would be great. I am interested in the use and interpretation of dummy variables and prediction models. I checked the contributed section in the CRAN homepage but could not find anything (Julian Faraway?s "practical Regression and ANOVA using R" does not cover logistic regression) Thanks for your help, David

Hi folks, I am currently having the problem with using R 2.8.1 that I cannot install some of packages from CRAN or local drive and somebody may be able to help me. ex) faraway package and lme4 package. I have downloaded them in my hard drive as local, but still R was unable to find the package (message showed up as no such file). I could download most packages, but not all what I want. I showed my PC to R experts around and nobody had ideas. I've re-installed newest...
