I am trying to plot two density lines on the same graph. Using the functions on the base package, I would go: plot(density(x), col = 1) lines(density(y), col = 2) And I get two distinct (one-bump) density lines. When I try to do it using lattice, I get two two-humped lines. (In other words, I think the smoothing function is taking the next set of data points and smoothing them in the same

Hi! I'm using the Naive Bayes classifier provided by the e1071 package ( http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/e1071) and I've noticed that the predict function has a different behavior when the level set of the columns used for prediction is different from the ones used for fitting. From inspecting the predict.naiveBayes I came to the conclusion that this is due to the conversion of

hello, all. in my previous research, i have always used existing data. i am trying something new as an exploratory exercise and have never create my own variable form scratch. essentially, i am creating a variable for party affiliation. here is an example. var =party. levels= democrat, republican, other. respondents will indicate which category they fall under. for the sake of ease, i will

I have the vncserver running on CentOS 4, but when I log in using vncviewer from another box, I don't see my gnome desktop, just a fancy terminal. I suspect I need to edit the ~/.vnc "xstartup file, but what do I add to fix this. On all other distros I have tried, the vncserver serves up my gnome desktop by default. -- Lee Parmeter Emperor, linXos - The Flying Penguin

I downloaded and installed apt and synaptic using yum ok, but are there corresponding apt repo's for the yum ones?

...Other columns are the numbers of DEMocrate, REPublican, INDependent (including unaffiliated), LIBertarian and OTHer (such as Green) party members voting. Total registered voters in precinct was 769. Interesting exercises might include tabulating the marginal totals and determining if Democrats or Republicans vote earlier or later.

The "maps" package has a function called "match.map", which is for map coloring . Its example is followed: # filled map showing Republican vote in 1900 # (figure 6 in the reference) data(state, package = "datasets") data(votes.repub) state.to.map <- match.map("state", state.name) x <- votes.repub[state.to.map, "1900"] gray.colors <-

I have RedHat linux 9 with R 1.8. I'm estimating models with multinom with a dependent variable that has 3 different values. Sometimes the models run fine and I can understand the results. Sometimes when I put in another variable, I see an indication that the estimation did work, but then I can't get the summary method to work. It's like this: > votemn1 <-

I created an account on the Forums this morning, but I got an error saying they were having a problem sending e-mail. I sent a message to the webmaster and no response either. So I can't post to the forum until my account is activated. Are the forums new? By the amount of traffic on the list, this must be where most people resolved their problems. I am thinkgng about installing CentOS 4 on my

I'm trying to figure out how to use lmer to fit models with factors that have some nesting and some non-nested groupings. For example, in this paper: http://www.stat.columbia.edu/~gelman/research/published/parkgelmanbafumi.pdf we have a logistic regression of survey respondents' political preferences (1=Republican, 0=Democrat), regressing on sex, ethnicity, state (51 states within 5

...required in earliest R releases. I rather liked the definitive ; at the end of every command. That looks right to me, probably because of my SAS and C background. Would S+ have a panic attack? Example 3. Namespace. Does S-plus get better as R does? Years ago, I was modeling US Democrats and Republicans and I created an indicator variable called "rep". regression models would not work after that because the rep function had been blocked. It was very frustrating to me. Professor Ripley spotted the error and posed a message called "Don't use the names of R functions as variable n...

I want to mirror an existing 40GB data only drive using software Raid1 on my new CentOS 4 server. The existing drive is connected to a Promise Ultra 100 TX2 controller (non-raid). I have read about mdadm and understand how to create the Raid1 on /dev/mdxx devices. However I would like to know if the existing data on the orignal 40GB drive in the system will be destroyed when I create the raid with

Hello, First time poster here so let me know if you need any more information. I am trying to run an ordered probit with maximum likelihood model in R with a very simple model (model <- econ3 ~ partyid). Everything looks ok until i try to run the optim() command and that's when I get " Error in rep(1, nrow(x)) : invalid 'times' argument". I had to adapt the code from a 4

Greetings: I'm just installed Centos-4 on an IBM T-21 laptop. So far so good. Now I'd like to pop in a wireless lan adapter. I'm looking at a buying a Linksys WPC54G adapter (although I haven't done so yet). After doing some searching, it looks like the best way to get this card working is via ndiswrapper [http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net] and then to use Windoze

The Vino package is installed on my CentOS 4 server, but I am unable to connect to it using vncviewer (vncviewer srvhost:0) from a client. However, I am not sure if it is "running" or how to "start" it if this is needed. The client machine in this case is running Ubuntu Hoary (gnome 2.10). The connection is just rejected. So, I am now wondering what else needs to be done to

sorry i figured this out after deleting the other parts of the thread. just run vino-preferences as the user who runs the main x display. it will have various options to enable and as soon as you do that you can get to hostname:0 via vnc. works quite well.

While working on getting software raid working, I was unable to shutdown CentOS normally. After a forced power shutdown, I noticed that my gnome background was missing and I could not change the background image or color. Trying to shutdown the server normally did not work either, it would just hang. I suspected that the file system was damaged and was not fixed automaticly on boot. I tried the

Dear colleagues, following John Fox' advice in this article (http://cran.r-project.org/doc/contrib/Fox-Companion/appendix-cox-regression.pdf), I'm trying to create a new data frame to examine the differential survival curves from a combination of covariates. These are derived from a Cox Proportional Hazards model I fit to data about the diffusion of a particular policy across American

Hello I want to share some common subroutines between my custom functions. Given the way Puppet loads the .rb files in $plugindest/puppet/parser/functions, does anyone know how should I lay this out? I tried creating a module myutilities def self.blah() ... end end (NOT within the newfunction() call) in one of the (top-level) functions'' .rb file. However, calling
