dataplot oen source? (was: RE: FW: re: GUI's for teaching)
IIRC, the license stated in the source code of dataplot is rather restrictive. I don't think one is allowed to use the source as can be done with GPL code.

Managing Data

I want to avoid doing silly things like overwriting a local object by running a piece of example code that happens to have the same variable name! I looked in R-intro, but the information there is pretty basic. Any ideas?

Factor Analysis
.... When a Heywood case is encountered, error out saying such. Provide an option to perform the analysis anyway setting values to small positive numbers (although it might be statistically suspect, replicating results from other studies suggests to me that this is exactly what was done).

skipping columns with read.fwf?
I have a file in fwf. It is rather large, about 40,000 rows and 40 variables (columns). I only need about 10 variables form the data set for the analysis at hand. Unfortunately, these 10 variables are not contiguous in the file, for example, the first is position 1-8, the next position 25-27, then 40. Is there a way to read the selected varaibles that I need without reading in the entire data

An R interface to Model Building
Hello all, To anyone who is interested, I'm trying to learn a bit more about developing applications in R with user interfaces. I've been playing around with gWidgets to develop a model building interface. I'd appreciate any comments, suggestions, or guidance on how to better structure my R code and organize the programming task. In addition, any suggestions for features and

Code for Coefficent (Cronbach's) Alpha
Hi all, I am trying to teach myself to use and program R (How else do you do it? lol) Anyway, I wrote a piece of code to compute coefficent alpha for a scale. As I am neither a statistician nor a programmer, I wanted people's feedback. The code appears to work (Win 95 with R 1.0.1) and I have verified my result with SPSS and it was correct (much to my astonishment!). Nonetheless, I am

Recursion Limits?
See the code below. First, what are recursion limits in R. The function is stopping after 25 iterations for me. Is this general, or localized? Can recursion limits be changed? Second, which is generally more efficient, recursion or looping over a function?
