hi, R-users I have a data.frame for example test$newdataday24 and test$newdataday48 I can plot them by plot(test$newdataday24) but now i want to plot different data by define a variable to describe them dayno<-c(24,48) newnam<-paste("test$newdataday",dayno,sep="") plot(newnam[1]) but i failed,the error message said that something wrong with plot.window what can i do

Dear All, I'me having (much) trouble understanding why it happened and answering a referee's comment to part of a submitted manuscript. I've tried to google for help but... I'm really confident that although this is a R-Help list someone can help me! I used R to do an ANCOVA w/ RNA/DNA as the dep var, sl as the indep var and gut (a factor w/ levels: prey and empty) as the

We have extracted parameters from physiological measurements by fitting SSlogis-like curves with nlsList and nlme. We presented residuals plot in a paper, but a referee argues that these cannot be included (too technical), and r-square values should be given instead to compare the goodness of fit with those of other authors. I remember that 30 years ago in my stat 101, I learned that r-square is

In the course of revising a paper I have had occasion to attempt to maximize a rather complicated log likelihood using the function nlm(). This is at the demand of a referee who claims that this will work better than my proposed use of a home- grown implementation of the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm. I have run into serious hiccups in attempting to apply nlm(). If I provide gradient and

The concrete problem is that I am refereeing a paper where a confidence interval is presented for the risk ratio and I do not find it credible. I show below my attempts to do this in R. The example is slightly changed from the authors'. I can obtain a confidence interval for the odds ratio from fisher.test of course === fisher.test exam...

Dear R News, I am inquiring whether the articles that are published in the 'R News' have undergone a peer-review/refereeing process, for the purpose of reporting the academics publications here at the University of Sydney to the Australian Government. Thank you for your assistance. Regards Glenn Glenn Howell| Faculty Research Assistant FACULTY OF ECONOMICS AND BUSINESS Institute building N412 (H03) The Uni...

R-ers! Referees demand that the line in the KM-curve should be changed to dotted at the point where standarerror is <= 10 %. I don't think it's a good habit but I urgently need to implement such a thing in R with survfit, survplot or another program. They also want numbers at risk below the curve Some help, please....

Good morning, I am new to Xen, and trying to understand how Xen works. I have some questions about virtualization of interrupts on Xen. Thanks in advance for all helps. 1) From papers about Xen architecture found at Xen homepage, Xen seemingly intercepts interrupts of Dom1 (paravirtualization). So interrupts occur in Dom1''s context are sent to Xen, and Xen handles them. Is that correct?

Hi all, I'm investigating on integrating a gc to my llvm project, and when I read this document <http://llvm.org/docs/Statepoints.html>, one sentence confused me: However, for a collector which wishes to relocate objects directly reachable from running code, a higher standard is required. I don't understand what the move "relocate objects directly reachable from running

Estimados herreros, Sabéis si hay algún sitio donde pueda hacer una pregunta sobre estadística, en concreto un diseño experimental. Alguna lista, foros, etc. Ya se que este no es el sitio adecuado para preguntas de estadística, pero por si alguien se pica os la pongo a continuación. Dos tratamientos C y H. Se aplican a una serie de especies (p.e. 10) Se observa la respuesta de las especies a

Hi Rafael, > With all that in mind, the attached patch changes the verifier to > reject aliases to declarations and updates that language reference. MachO has an R_INDR (== "indirect") symbol flag/type that (from my understanding) exactly reflects this. The linker is supposed to record the alias and define both symbols when the referee is defined. In fact, I've been working

I saw a couple of references in the VPIM-talk archives about OS X Address book throwing a message of "no importable cards were found". I ran into this address when I threw some code into the my rails application. I used the .vcard extension for my vcard and saw this message for OS X address book. Once I changed the extension to .vcf, it recognized it right away as a valid vcard file.

hi, i am trying to figure out how to put a caption on the colour scale of a levelplot. there does not seem to be an option for this in levelplot(). i tried using mtext() but as soon as you put the text far out enough on the right of the plot, it goes beyond the plot boundary. so i tried to extend the margin on the right of the plot using par(mar) but this did not have any effect on the plot area.

People I apologise for asking a general stats question, but I'm at a bit of a loss as to what to do following some hostile referees' comments. If I have a fully randomised blocked design, with only three blocks, should I treat block as a random or fixed effect? I have read comments about not treating block as a random effect if the number of blocks is less than 6 or 7: is this
