Matrix multiplication using apply() or lappy() ?
I am trying to divide the columns of a matrix by the first row in the 
matrix.
I have tried to get this using apply and I seem to be missing a concept 
regarding the apply w/o calling a function but rather command args %*% / 
etc.  Would using apply be more efficient than this approach? 
I have observed examples in the archives using this type of approach. Does 
anybody have a snippet of a call

cumulative growth rates indexed to a common starting point over n series of observations
What is the R way of computing cumulative growth rates given a series of 
discrete values indexed .
For instance, given a matrix of 20 observations for each of 5 series (zz), 
what is the most straight forward technique in R for computing cumulative 
growth (zzcum) ?
It seems for the solution I'm after might be imbedding the following cum 
growth rate calc as a function into a function call

Fw: Help needed using lattice for area plots lpolygon, xyplot.
I am trying to learn how to use the graphics from the lattice package ( 
and am very new to R). 
I am trying to replicate the example plot referenced below, by using the 
lattice xyplot & lpolygon to create panels.  I get what appears to be the 
correct shape of the filled region, but cannot get the position to overlay 
properly.  I have attempted with various settings of position.  ( i.e.

RODBC Excel sqlQuery insert into
I have searched the archives for using insert into to update spreadsheets 
using RODBC and have come up short. So, first off, is it possible?
I have put together a dummy xls table (c:\foo.xls)for exploring 
possibilities of RODBC.  Ultimately, I am interested in replacing much of 
our previous use of vba macros with R ( I'd prefer elimination, but will 
take what I can get ).  In order to

Help needed understanding eval,quote,expression
I am trying to build up a quoted or character expression representing a 
component in a list  in order to reference it indirectly. 
For instance, I have a list that has data I want to pull, and another list 
that has character vectors and/or lists of characters containing the names 
of the components in the first list.
It seems that the way to do this is as evaluating expressions, but I seem
