Dear R-Helpers, SAS Institute just mailed out the notice below regarding a survey of people who do data mining. To help keep the survey from becoming biased toward commercial software, I thought it would be good to post it here as well. Cheers, Bob Fourth Annual Data Miner Survey Rexer Analytics has asked statistical and data mining software vendors to forward this survey as a courtesy. (SAS is

Greeting Listserv Readers, At http://r4stats.com/popularity I have added plots, data, and/or discussion of: 1. Scholarly impact of each package across the years 2. The number of subscribers to some of the listservs 3. How popular each package is among Google searches across the years 4. Survey results from a Rexer Analytics poll 5. Survey results from a KDnuggests poll 6. A rudimentary analysis

Greetings, I am pleased to announce the availability of the document, "R for SAS and SPSS Users", at http://oit.utk.edu/scc/RforSAS&SPSSusers.doc . It presents an introductory view of R for people who already know SAS and/or SPSS. Included are 27 programs written in all three languages (i.e. 81 total) so that people can see how R works compared to the other two, task by task. I

Hi All, I'm using the Hmisc summarize function and used list instead of llist to provide the by variables. It generated an error message. Is this a bug, or do I misunderstand how Hmisc works with lists? The program below demonstrates the error message. Thanks, Bob x<-1:8 group <- c(1,1,1,1,2,2,2,2) gender<- c(1,2,1,2,1,2,1,2) mydata<-data.frame(x,group,gender)

Hi All, We have all had to face skeptical colleagues asking if software made by volunteers could match the quality and accuracy of commercially written software. Thanks to the prompting of a recent R-help thread, I read, "R: Regulatory Compliance and Validation Issues, A Guidance Document for the Use of R in Regulated Clinical Trial Environments (http://www.r-project.org/doc/R-FDA.pdf).

Hi All, I searched around to find the number of R packages currently available, but didn't find anything, so I choose all repositories & told it to install. The list contained about 2,856 (correcting roughly for those installed). But the list includes repetitions such as 19 names that begin with "bvbovine". Selecting only CRAN and CRAN(extras) I get 1,344. Is there an easier

Greetings, I'm learning R and I'm stuck on a basic concept: how to specify a logical condition once and then perform multiple transformations under that condition. The program below is simplified to demonstrate the goal. Its results are exactly what I want, but I would like to check the logical state of gender only once and create both (or any number of) scores at once.

When connecting with v1, the server logs a message when I exit my login shell: Closing connection to 130.207.167.32 However, when connecting with v2, it only ever logs: Connection closed by remote host. Tracing through the code, it appears that instead of breaking in serverloop.c:server_loop2() at: if (had_channel && !channel_still_open()) {

I can't see why there shouldn't be a '-2' flag for "scp" when there's one for "ssh". Am I missing something here? Attached is a very simple patch for scp.c and scp.1 that introduces a '-2' for scp.

I just found that trying to specify a DSA identity file with '-i' doesn't work. Although the man page doesn't indicate that this is supported for DSA keys, it also doesn't indicate very clearly that its _not_. Indeed, in ssh.c:main(), the "-i" only increments and sets: options.options.num_identity_files options.identity_files where it would need to modify:

Dear R-Helpers, I've looked high and low for a function that provides frequencies, proportions and cumulative proportions side-by-side. Below is the table I need. Is there a function that already does it?

I'm running samba 3.0.13 on a debian box, sharing out NFS filesystems from a solaris box. I know, bad idea.. file locking, etc... non-issues at the moment. I've discovered that if I make a share from a local filesystem, the PC's mounting the share see their quota (hard limit, not soft which is another matter) as their capacity and their appropriate free space... this is good.

Hi All, I've been fiddling around with various ways to estimate the popularity of R, SAS, SPSS, Stata, JMP, Minitab, Statistica, Systat, BMDP, S-PLUS, R-PLUS and Revolution R. It's not an easy task. You can see what I've come up with so far at http://r4stats.com/popularity . I'm sure people will have plenty of ideas on how to improve this, so please let me know what you think.

I have run into a problem using 'rsync' to copy files from local disk to a SAN mounted LUN / file-system. The 'rsync' seems to run fine and it reports no errors, but some files are corrupted (check-sums don't match originals, and file data is changed). So far, I have found this problem on both Solaris 9 and Solaris 10 OSes and on several different models of Sparc systems

...urely for educational purposes ( i'm not even sure that I understood the question actually ). Unfortunately, persp gives me an error that I don't understand because it says "object y not found". I'm sending y in as a parameter to persp similar to what ?persp shows in one of oits examples so I must not be understanding something. the code is below. thanks.

Hi; We've recently upgraded from Samba 1.7 to Samba 2.2.8 and we're using Samba to allow our users to connect to their Unix home directories from their PC's. Under 1.7 users were able to connect by mapping a drive from windows explorer and entering their unix username and password. Now, when we do this we get a "Incorrect password or Unknown username" error message.

Hi all, I was just wondering when this update will trickle down into the Centos repo: http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2008-0611.html Obviously, it just came out yesterday, so I'm not expecting it to suddenly appear. ;) Just curious what the turn around time usually is for RHEL bug fixes that get released and when we should expect it. As a side note, does anyone know if there is a way

OK - finished some tests over tcp and ironed out a lot of problems. rdma is next; should be snap now....
