"Beast" is more appropriate than you know. It''s definately Frankenstein code. (read: it ain''t pretty, but it works - some of the time). Anyway, it entertains my wife; not sure if hardcore programmers will get anything out of it or not. You might find it interesting (or pointless) that in a complete bastardization of rails'' main reason for being it

Personally, I find that indenting config files by 3 spaces has a lot of advantages to indenting them by 4 spaces although conventional wisdom might suggest otherwise. Who's with me on this?

Dear researchers I wish to plot a box plot without the mean line (the black line) and plot only the mean (red square). Futhermore, is it possible to add standard error and/or stadard deviation? This is an example mytest <- c(2.1,2.6,2.7,3.2,4.1,4.3,5.2,5.1,4.8,1.8,1.4,2.5,2.7,3.1,2.6,2.8) boxplot(mytest,lty = "solid") means <- mean(mytest,na.rm=TRUE) points(means, pch = 22, col

I vote for spec''ing. Anybody else?

Helo Greg - I got it with help of your code and I would like to add the value into the boxplot chart. How to do that. y_duration <- c (16.438, 15.321, 12.700, 12.397, 10.795, 9.928, 10.386) On May 09, 2018, at 10:06 AM, Jayaganesh Anbuganapathy <jai6561 at icloud.com> wrote: Actually I would like to get an output on the below snapshot.

All, I''ve heard recently about has_many :through as a necessary alternative to HABTM (when the join table has it''s own id column, say, in a legacy schema). However, is the prevailing Rails wisdom now that one should use has_many :through in _all_ cases? If so, why? Thanks, Wes -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I have a brief from a local hotel to build a PBX using Asterisk but they want to use their exisiting telephones and wiring from an old PBX that no longer works. Basically, I can build the system but an looking for a card that will allow for upto 20 extensions to be wired into the back of the PC.

Hello All- I found an inconsistency between the R-squared reported in Excel vs. that in R, and I am wondering which (if any) may be correct and if this is a known issue. While it certainly wouldn't surprise me if Excel is just flat out wrong, I just want to make sure since the R- squared reported in R seems surprisingly high. Please let me know if this is the wrong list. Thanks!

I have recently been learning and trying to develop some application parts using Rails. One issue I may have is that one of the potential clients will want to have one of their external web pages POST to the Rails controller. I tried the naive approach - copy the HTML generated for the Rails controller action for doing the same POST (Create of a domain object). I had this working, or so I

Hi, For the last ten years or so, I've defined the short hostname in /etc/hostname and the FQDN in /etc/hosts. Now I wanted to double-check this information, which eventually led me to this page: * https://serverfault.com/questions/331936/setting-the-hostname-fqdn-or-short-name Now I admit I'm even more confused than before. Is there some reliable piece of information on this subject

I know this is a freeBSD mailing list, but I didn't know where else to ask this question. I've recently switch to FreeBSD 4.8 (great OS btw), and I've been so pleasantly surprised that i'm now planning to switch over my dad's firm over to freeBSD. There computers/software are rapidly getting old and obselete, and microsoft's price/security is...well expensive/crap.

Hi Folks, Following up a bit on the GFS vs. EVMS thread from last month... Hi Folks, I''m about to migrate from a dedicated RH9 server (mostly email, list serving, web serving) to a couple of new machines that I''ll be deploying in a colocation arrangement - with a lot more control over configuration. My current box is pretty basic - using RAID-1 and nightly backups to

Hi, I've been trying to use rsync to backup the content of a large web application on our Digital unix servers. I'm having some success but the main problem is the sheer number of files and subdirectories which must be copied/maintained between the two servers (one is our standby system). Believe it or not there are in excess of 7.5 million files/directories which must be synced between

Hello R friends, I'm wondering why I get funny qqnorm() results. It seems that they should all be reflected in the normal qqline(). For instance: if I qqnorm() bimodal or uniform data I get a sigmoidal in which the qqnorm() points lie above the qqline() at -ve theoretical quantiles, and the qqnorm() points lie below the qqline() at +ve theoretical quantiles. Yet I expect such platykurtic

Do you know of a reference that discusses alternative choices for plotting positions for a normal probability plot? The documentation for qqnorm says it calls ppoints, which returns qnorm((1:m-a)/(m+1-2*a)) with "a" = ifelse(n<=10, 3/8, 1/2)? The help pages for qqnorm and ppoints just refer to Becker, Chambers and Wilks (1988) The New S Language (Wadsworth & Brooks/Cole),

Hi there: We have recently inherited a circa 1996 SGI Indy Colorbus Cyclone running on Irix. Our intention is to use this unit to drive our Canon CLC900 Scanner Copier and make it accessible to our Windows Network. At the moment, our Windows Network does not "see" the Cyclone & vice versa. I have read that installing some kind of Windows Samba client onto our windows
