I would like to plot and unplot a line to a graph using R's line command. This would allow for sequentially trying different plotted functions for a visual fit. Is there a way to do this? Rex

I'm just reading Modern Applied Statistics with S, 4th Ed., Venables and Ribley I'm typing in their examples in both R and S+. I need insight in the difference in the class() statement shown in Chap. 2. Example from book: > names(powers.of.pi) <- -2:2 > powers.of.pi -2 -1 0 1 2 0.1013212 0.3183099 1.0000000 3.1415927 9.8696044 >

This is not a criticism. I'm just curious. Is there an effort to keep R comparable to S+? Or are the two languages diverging? I am doing what probably legions have done before me, and legions will after me...using R on examples from text books written with S+ code. Most of the time everything appears to be equivalent. And then there are amazing divergences in commands. For instance: S:

You need to install the tools needed to build packages from source. You can read about it in Q3.1 of R for Windows FAQ.

...omplex ones 3. y1 and y2 can even come from distributions that are not easily defined, i.e. from bootstrapping. 4. The code can be tailored to estimate Power even when multi-stage tests are proposed. I hope that my intuition is correct.

R-wizards I have successfully run with S+ a statistical power calculation for non-normal distributions as presented in M. Crawley?s new book.? When I tried the newest version of R on the same code, the $ parse statement doesn't seem to retrieve the appropriate number from a table. Note that some of the cosmetic differences in the two tables have to be dealt with by the parser. Any ideas

I need some guidance on what is the best way to automate R I am aware of Rterm. First question: Is it true that R is not currently OLE accessible under Windows 2000? Second question: Is there an R command that echoes all R Console results to a run log system file? My first attempt to write a run log file is the example from the R Data Inport/Export documentation. > zz<-

All Is there an R command to produce error bars around a plotted point. Crawley's book uses the command error.bar() but my version of R rejects it. Must be an S+ command(?). Thanks REX [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

To All How does one get a list of functions from a loaded package so that one can then get the appropriate help for each of the functions. Currently my method is based on a lot of trial-and-error. Here's an example of what I mean... >From this forum I learn that an interesting package called "multtest" exists on Bioconductor. I then use R Console's "Packages" --

How do I post text-string dates along the x-axis instead of the excel_date position values? I would like to plot a time-series of chemical values changing with time The first column is the internal date from excel. This should be the x-axis position of a graph of the plotted data. The second column is a text-string of date. This should be what is posted (instead of the excel_date). The third

Ronaldo Your mathematical question is of interest to me too. But I am particularly interested in a translation into American English of the pun attached to you email. Could you try to explain O Flamengo e o Bangu terminaram o jogo em 0 x 0. Quem fez o gol? A Volkswagen My rough translation into English is: Two soccer teams ended play 0 to 0. Who got the goal? A Volkswagen. I need all the

Wizards... With regards to Mario's Mandelbrot.c programming -- would some kind wizard show how to compile and run his code on a Win installation. I'm looking for a simple "cookbook" example in the same manner that Mario show for Linux. I have Win2000 on this machine.

Any idea why I can no longer plot two graphs on the same graphics device using the par(fig=) parameter? A simpler par(mfrow=c(1,2)) does work, showing the two plots side-by-side, but I would like the first to be larger. This simple example fails: x<-c(1,1,NA,2,2,NA,3,3) y<-c(2,4,NA,3,5,NA,1,4) par(fig=c(0,2/3,0,1)) plot(x,y) par(fig=c(2/3,1,0,1)) qqnorm(x) When plotted, the last

Is there an eloquent solution to re-assign vector element values? I have a vector which contains chemical data, some of them are "flagged" as non-detected values by their negative values. I can find the statistics on the positive values in vector "v" simply by typing: >v<- c(5,5,-3,-3,7,8,10) > v[(v>0)] [1] 5 5 7 8 10 I can also convert to positive values by

To all I have some simple questions pertaining to weights used in regression. If the variability of the dependent variable (y) is a function of the magnitude of predictor variable (x), can the use of weights give an appropriate answer to the regression parameters and the std errors? Assume that y at x=1 and 6 has a standard deviation of 0.1 and at x=11 it is 0.4 Then according to a web page on
