Dear all, I am using gnome-terminal to run R, and I noticed that standard PageUp/Down do not work but they do work for other programs within the same terminal window (e.g. irssi). Scroll bar does not work either. I run R using GNU-screen, but it doesn't seem to make any difference. Many thanks Olga ------------------ R version 2.11.1 (2010-05-31) 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS

Dear all, I am making a barplot as following: barplot(c(1,2,3,5,2,3,1),names.arg=c("100","200","300","400","500","600","700"),xlab="diameter",ylab="flow",main="some title",space=0.1) I am also trying to add a probability density curve, however using lines(density(c(1,2,3,5,2,3,1))) does not give

Dear all, I have a dataframe: df<-dataframe(a=c(1,2,3),b=c(4,5,6),c=c(7,8,9),d=c(10,11,12)) I want to obtain a new dataframe with columns a and b being standardized ((x-mean(x))/sd(x)); the other two columns (c,d) I want to leave unchanged. What is the best way to achieve this? I have been trying to use subscripts but did not succeed so far. Any tips? Many thanks, Olga

Dear all, I am trying to import data with read.csv and my file is on remote machine. I believe that I need to open a connection, not sure about syntax though. I would appreciate any suggestions, Thanks! Olga

Dear all, mydata<-data.frame(x1=c(1,4,6),x2=c(3,1,2),x3=c(2,1,3)) cor(mydata) x1 x2 x3 x1 1.0000000 -0.5960396 0.3973597 x2 -0.5960396 1.0000000 0.5000000 x3 0.3973597 0.5000000 1.0000000 I wonder if it is possible to fill only lower triangle of this correlation matrix? Using 'dist' doesn't seem to be useful as it doesnt allow to convert this table

Dear all, I am using GNU screen to run multiple R sessions from one working directory in order to split task, however I noticed that dataset is not synchronized e.g. if I have two sessions R1 and R2, and I remove an object from R1, R2 doesn't change as expected or change at random. I have tried to save.image(), q() and then restart both sessions, but it does not help. Any suggestions?

Dear all, I was wondering if there is a way to explore a syntax of particular function without package installation? I am trying to write my own functions, and I would like to see how other people approached similar problems. If every time I have to install/load package to be able to explore function syntax I end up installing loads of packages I am never going to use. I have also tried

Dear all, I run a loop wrapped in try(), and for each of the rows where "try-error" is true I want to fill that row with NA (at the moment it is omitted). So I would expect to get a dataframe with 1000 rows some of which would be empty, but instead I get a dataframe with 995 rows. In this case missing 5 rows were omitted. Any suggestions? Thanks, Olga ----------------
