Hello! I am optimizing my code in R and for this I need to know a bit more about the internals. It would help tremendously if someone could link me to a page with O()-complexities of all the operations. In this particular case, I need something like a linked list with O(1) insertLast/First ability. I can't preallocate a vector since I do not know the final size of the list ahead of time. The

Dear R forum helpers,I have following datatrans <- data.frame(currency_transacted = c("EURO", "USD", "USD", "GBP", "USD", "AUD"), position_amt = c(10000, 25000, 20000, 15000, 22000, 30000))date <- c("12/31/2010", "12/30/2010", "12/29/2010", "12/28/2010", "12/27/2010",

Hi, I have limited experience on R and recently started using REXcel. Although I have been able to run both simple functions (like mean etc) and some complex ones (like Principal Component analysis, PCA) using RExcel, I am facing some problems while running EGARCH model. For this I have downloaded the 'betategarch' package for R to run EGARCH with student t dist. Although the package has

Hello, I'm very interested in using financial time series data, but I'm a beginner of R programming. I'd like to fully understand internal logics on several time-series related packages such as quantmod, xts, zoo, chron, etc. So, I read some books, 'R Cookbook' and 'Art of R Programming' and another simple tutorials. But I still can't understand grammars of the

Dear R helpers, Suppose I have stock returns data of say 1500 companies each for say last 4 years. Thus I have a matrix of dimension say 1000 * 1500 i.e. 1500 columns representing companies and 1000 rows of their returns. I need to find the correlation matrix of these 1500 companies. So I can find out the correlation as cor(returns) and expect to get 1500 * 1500 matrix. However, the process

Hello Every one I have data on Stock prices and I want to calculate the return on all the stocks and then replace all the stock prices with the returns can any one tell me how to do My data is in the format given below Date Stock1 Stock2 Stock3 01/01/2000 1 2 3 01/02/2000 5 6 7 01/03/2000 1 2 3 01/04/2000

Hi, I want to calculate the Value at Risk with using some distirbutions and a volatility model. I use the following data(http://uploadeasy.net/upload/cdm3n.rar) which are losses (negative returns) of a company of approx. the last 10 years. So I want to calculated the Value at Risk, this is nothing else than the quantile. Since I have losses I consider the right tail of the distribution. Consider

Hi, I'm trying to set up R to run a simulation of two populations in which every 3.5 days, the initial value of one of the populations is reset to 1.5. I'm simulation an experiment we did in which we fed Daphnia populations twice a week with algae, so I want the initial value of the algal population to reset to 1.5 twice a week to simulate that feeding. I've use for loops and if/else

Hi, I would like to cut a vector of values in parts. Each part should have an equal number of elements. for example: x <- (rnorm(500)^2) now I want 5 vectors each with 100 elements. The first vector should include the 100 lowest values of x and so on (so that the fifth vector contains the 100 highest values of x). thanks for any help!

Hi, I have an n x m matrix of numerical observations. ie. stock prices I wish to convert the matrix of observations to a matrix of simple returns (by taking the differences between (column) observations.)

Hi, as i suppose to know in a stationary GARCH(1,1) model the sum of alpha and beta has to be smaller than 1. But if i use the garchfit() function from the package fGarch for my timeseries the sum is bigger than 1. The adf.test tells me a p-value smaller than 0.01 instead. What does this mean for me? Can i trust in the coefficients in this case? mfg user84 -- View this message in context:

Dear all, I would like to ask you if there is a way to define a global variable in R? I am having a bunch of function and I think the easier would be to have a global function defined at some point... Would that be possible? Regards Alex [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
