Hi I am currently (for pedagogical purposes) writing a simple numerical analysis library in R. I have come unstuck when writing a simple Newton-Raphson implementation, that looks like this: f <- function(x) { 2*cos(x)^2 + 3*sin(x) + 0.5 } root <- newton(f, tol=0.0001, N=20, a=1) My issue is calculating the symbolic derivative of f() inside the newton() function. I cant seem to get R to

Folks, I put up a brief note describing my naive attempts to compute Goldbach partitions, starting with a brute-force approach and refining progressively. http://jostamon.blogspot.com/2009/02/goldbachs-comet.html I'd welcome your suggestions on improvements, alternatives, other optimisations, esp. to do with space vs time tradeoffs. Is this an example interesting enough for

Dear R users, I have a dataset with two variables: $esan - a grouping factor with 8 levels and $reus. I'd like to do wilcox.test on this dataset as sugested Weiwei here: https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2007-July/136627.html. I tried to adapt his recommendation but no succes. Can anyone help me?

Dear all, I have written a small set of functions for drawing graphical representations of R objects and evaluations of R expressions. It is mainly intended for pedagogical purposes. Here are some samples: http://panini.u-paris10.fr/~sloiseau/sampleGraphics.pdf The idea is to use some graphical conventions in order to make clear the abstract syntax and to explain function, extraction,

I want to run Shapiro-Wilk test for each variable in my dataset, each grouped by variable groupFactor. I have these working commands: > data.n<-names(data) # put names into a vector called data.n > by(eval(parse(text=(paste("data",data.n[3],sep="$")))), data$factor, shapiro.test) #run shapiro.test but I must to change the variable number manualy. How to automate

For a pedagogical purpose, I was trying to show how the formula for a simple regression line (~1+x) could be crossed with a factor (~1:group + x:group) to fit separate regressions by group. For example: set.seed(201108) dat <- data.frame(x=1:15, y=1:15+rnorm(15), group = sample(c('A','B'), size=15, replace=TRUE)) m1 <- lm(y~ 1 + x, data=dat)

Howdy All, I''ve a bit of a strange problem here. I have a filesystem with one snapshot that simply refuses to be destroyed. The snapshots just prior to it and just after it were destroyed without problem. While running the zfs destroy command on this particular snapshot, the server becomes more-or-less hung. It''s pingable but will not open a new shell (local or via ssh) however

Dear list users How is it possible to visualise both a linear trend line and a quadratic trend line on a plot of two variables? Here my almost working exsample. data(Duncan) attach(Duncan) plot(prestige ~ income) abline(lm(prestige ~ income), col=2, lwd=2) Now I would like to add yet another trend line, but this time a quadratic one. So I have two trend lines. One linear trend line
