Hello r-help! I have data with two kind of ratings on status of 100 occupations. The first kind of rating is on the percieved "objective" status that these occupations have in society at large, and the second kind or rating is on the status that the respondents think that these occuption *should* have. The ratings were originally integer values in the rage 1-9, but in the current data,

I'm writing an publication in two column format and need to shrink some plots. After increasing the axis labels it does not look nice at all. The y-axis label and tick labels almost touch each other and the x-axis tick labels expand into the plot instead of away from it. Is there a better way than "cex" to control the: 1) font size of axis and tick labels 2) font thickness 3)

Hi all! I've got a datstructure like this: subject week value 1 1 4 2 1 8 3 1 3 4 1 5 1 2 5 2 2 6 3 2 2 4 2 6 1 3 3 2 3 7 3 3 3 4 3 7 I'd like to plot the mean of 'value' against week. Is there a direct way of doing this or do I have to make a new structure with the calculated values and then plot it? All the best! -- ########################################### Kare

Dear R-gurus! Is it possible within boxplot to break the y-scale into two (or anything)? I'd like to have a normal linear y-range from 0-10 and the next tick mark starting at, say 60 and continue to 90. The reason is for better visualising the outliers.

R-gurus... I've got a 5 column dataframe where I'd like to plot each ID's "b" against "c" with "b" in ascending order (within the same ID). How do I sort "b" so that the other variables are altered equally? ID a b c d 101 1 240 26.7 21.85 101 2 335 21.8 21.85 101 3 1387 26.6 21.85 101 4 877 24.1 21.85

Is there a function providing more descriptive statistics than "summary()"? I'm working with a coxph analyses and would like to have more info on certain numbers. If my call is something like: Call: coxph(formula = Surv(followup, CasesCancer) ~ age + BMI + parity + HRT) I'd like to know: * How many CasesCancer was excluded (not only the total number of excluded due to

Hi r-helpers... Why do I get this strange huge jump of 36524 days when changing "origin" from 1969-01-01 to 1968-12-31. It should still be close to zero! This really messes up my calculations of follow-up times in my analyses. > julian(strptime("010169", format = "%d%m%y"),origin = as.Date("1969-01-01")) > Time difference of -0.04166667 days >

Is Rails Logger truly not Thread Safe? http://log.kares.org/2011/04/railslogger-is-not-threadsafe.html This seems like an issue that should have been picked up quite a long time ago. I just set config.threadsafe! in my config/application.rb and my log output from rails server has completely disappeared. If the logger is not thread-safe, I cannot hel...

I'd like to avoid looping through an array in order to change values in the array as it takes too long. I red from an earlier post it can be done by "do.call" but never got it to work. The Idea is to change the value of "y" according to values in "x". Wherever "x" holds the value 3, the corresponding value in "y" should be set to 1. So I

Hi Gang, I've got the latest SVN branch of 1.4 downloaded onto SUSE 11.0. Everything is happy EXCEPT, I can't get fax to be recognized by make menuselect.

Hi all. If I run the simple regression when x is a categorical variable ( x <- factor(x) ): > MyFit <-coxph( Surv(start, stop, event) ~ x ) How can I get the overall p-value on x other than for each dummy variable? > anova(MyFit) does NOT provide that information as previously suggested on the list.

Hello all, I am not a Samba expert by any means, so please bear with me if I make a fool of myself. We run a small network in this office. There is a Windows domain running off of a Debian Linux server, running Linux 2.4.25. There are mostly Windows 2000 and Windows XP machines, but there are still a few users clinging on to Windows 98 (this is because they run specialized testing software

Hello, When I call an action with some invalid XML or JSON data a parse exception gets raised from within Rails/Ruby (REXML or ActiveSupport::JSON).
