...t truncated data. This function is useful, but I need to fit parametric models other than Weibull. Any suggestions of functions that can fit parametric survival models other than Weibull on left truncated, right censored data would be greatly appreciated.

Hello R help I have been trying to use Rob Hyndman's monotonically increasing spline function. But like another user or two seem have a problem with a missing DLL (namely "spline_coef"). None of the previous help postings seemed to have any solutions to this problem. As per a Ripley suggestion I have deleted all previous versions of R and reinstalled R 2.7.0 and the problem

Has anyone got a function for smooth monotonic interpolation of a univariate function? I'm after something like the NAG function PCHIM which does monotonic Hermite interpolation. Alternatively, montononic cubic spline interpolation. Please reply directly.

Hi all, I read in a column which looks like "chr1:000889594-000889638", and need to break them into three columns like "chr1:", "000889594" and "000889638". How shall I do in R. Thanks a lot for your suggestions! Bill

May I ask a clinical question? For a trial, we have a treatment group of small size, say 30 patients. We want to selectmatching control patients from a bigger group (100 patients) in terms of several clinical variables, such as age, tumor stage etc. This practice is to select the closest matching set of control cases. I wonder if R has any routine or package that can help with this problem.

Dear all, Does any one know how to remove part of the string? For example, "LTA4H||Leukotriene A4 hydrolase" is a gene name plus gene description. I hope to remove "||Leukotriene A4 hydrolase". What would be the R code to do that using gsub()? Many thanks! Bill

Dear all, Does any one know if any R package or function can do Ordinary Least Products regression? Many thanks! Bill

Hi friends, Does anyone know how to make truncated y axis with cut mark (\\) in R plot? Many thanks! Bill

Dear all, I have a problem. I have m variables each of which has n observations. I want to calculate pairwise correlation among the m variables and store the values in a m x m matrix. It is extremely slow to use nested 'for' loops if m and n are large. Is there any efficient alternative to do this? Many thanks for your suggestions!! Bill

Dear all, Does any one know how to calculate the risk (death rate) at some time point (say 5 yrs) based on Kaplan-Meier curve in coxph model in R? I know how to fit the survival data with coxph. But need to calculate risk at some time point. Many thanks. Bill

Hello, I've been searching on the web for a few hours and seem to be stuck on this. The code pasted below generates a histogram of subject responses in four different conditions in an experiment. This version of the graph is one I'm using for internal consistency checking, so I've set it up to indicate the order of the responses, which is contained in the variable StimCount. The
