Hello, Does anyone knows how to deal with zero subscript in R. I have this code: for (i in 1:nitems){ + for (j in 1:ncat-1) { + draw<-matrix(rnorm(nitems*(ncat-1),seed1,seed2),nitems,(ncat-1)) + d<-( sigma_d*draw ) + mu_d + draw<-matrix(rtnorm((nitems*(ncat-1)),mean = seed1, sd = seed2, lower = .1, upper = 1.5),nitems,(ncat-1)) + d<-(sigma_d*draw) + mu_d + write.matrix(cbind(b.i0,d), file = "F:/KU/MIRT group/MIMIC-DIF/R/cpprcode/b0d.dat", sep = " ") +...

...That means that the other argument to this function, x, should be DAILY returns, expressed in decimal. Suppose he wanted to create random data from a distribution of returns with ANNUAL mean MU_A and ANNUAL std deviation SIGMA_A, both stated in decimal. The equivalent DAILY returns would have mean MU_D = MU_A / 252 and standard deviation SIGMA_D = SIGMA_A/SQRT(252). He calls MU_D by the name mu_base and SIGMA_D by the name sigma_base. His loop now converts the random numbers in his matrix so that each column has mean MU_D and std deviation SIGMA_D. HTH, Eric On Tue, Nov 21, 2017 at 2:33...

Hello all, A really noddy question for you all: I''m trying without success to do some subhypothesis testing. Using simple anova model, with a toy dataset from a book. I have four factors A,B,C,D, and wish to test mu_C = mu_D. This is what I have tried: > contrasts(infants$group,how.many=1) <- c(0,0,1,-1) > contrasts(infants$group) [,1] A 0 B 0 C 1 D -1 > fit <- aov(age~group,data=infants) > summary(fit) Df Sum Sq Mean Sq F value Pr(>F) group 1 0.740...

Hi Joe, The centering and re-scaling is done for the purposes of his example, and also to be consistent with his definition of the sharpe function. In particular, note that the sharpe function has the rf (riskfree) parameter with a default value of .03/252 i.e. an ANNUAL 3% rate converted to a DAILY rate, expressed in decimal. That means that the other argument to this function, x, should be DAILY

Wrong list. Post on r-sig-finance instead.
