Hi R fans, I was trying to write some code in R when I realized that I was just writing a FORTRAN 77 style program in the R syntax, and hence coming nowhere near tapping the potential of R. I'm wondering what is a good reference that would help me get up to speed in programming in R (i.e., using these classes, methods, objects, accessor functions, and many other things I don't

...). I want to rotate mtext so that it's perpendicular to the right side. I tried srt=90 and lots of other values, but it seems to be ignored. Is there a way to do this? ______________________________________________________________________ Stuart Luppescu -=-=- University of Chicago $(B:MJ8$HCRF`H~$NIc(B -=-=- s-luppescu at uchicago.edu http://www.consortium-chicago.org/people/sl.html http://musuko.uchicago.edu/pubkey.asc for PGP Public Key ICQ #21172047 AIM: psycho7070 Lack of capability is usually disguised by lack of interest. >> Sent on 01-Feb-2001 at 10:00:03 with...

Hi there, I realize that this is a bit of a strange question, but here goes. In SAS, one can use the REG procedure to carry out a least-squares regression analysis. By specifying the R-SQUARE option in the SELECTION command, the program carries out regressions for every combination of every independant variable against the dependant variable. This is useful in smaller datasets, though difficult
