Another newbie question.... I want to create a factor (say cT)from a numerical variable (sy temp) by regrouping the values in classes (say cT <390, [390,400[,[400,409[...>=550) Is there a simple way of doing that using the factor function? AND I do not find how to manipulate strings (I want to concatenete characters strings ("abkdas","chjw") into something like

Hello R-helpers I want to put a color scale in a plot: I've got an xy plot where the values of the response (z=f(x,y)) is symbolically given by colors (like heat or rainbow color scale) I would like to put such a scale with apprpriates labels in the plot, so as to facilitate the interpretation (like in a finite elements result plot) How is taht possible? Thanks Anne [[alternative

Hi all! I'm pretty new to this list, and got already a question: Does anyone of you successfully made dreamweaver 2 work wine? Cause I'm pretty stuck with it. It tells me that I don't have a good windows version :-( Thanks a lot for your help! ByE!

Hello! I would like to add a plot of the regression surface to my cloud plot . Is it possible? Thanks Anne [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello R helpers! I looked but did not find a table-lookup R-utility. I could use a loop to do the job (old FORTRAN/C habits die hard) but if I have a big table in which I have to search for the values corresponding to a vector, I end up logically with a double loop. Is there already such a utility? Otherwise, is there a way without loops? Thanks as always Anne

Hi! I'm trying to do some ploytomous logistic regression using multinom() in the nnet package, but am a bit confused about interpretation of the results Is it possible to get the following quantities: I: maximum likelihood estimates to test for fit of model and significance of each predictor (I would like to produce a table of the following type) Analysis of Variance: MLE (values are

Hello This is a very newbie question on R syntax, but I do not find the answer.... I want to make a selection on an interval say choose Xint in the interval of temperatures 390-399 I tried this syntax Xint<- X[t>=390 && t< 400] typing >XintI get the answer numeric(0) it did not select any object! 'though I verified that there indeed are occrencies of X in this

Hi has anyone coded up domain colouring for visualizing complex analytic functions (such as elliptic functions)?

Is there an upgrate of the vcd library (visualisation of categorical data) for the latest R version? Trying to download it from CRAN I get URL /data/WWW/ftp/pub/R/bin/windows/contrib/r-release/vcd_0.1-3.4.zip was not found on this server. googling it, I found it for instance on http://www.sourcekeg.co.uk/cran/bin/windows/contrib/1.9/ but trying to install it gave me the message >

Dear R-helpers, I have a problem which I suppose is trivila, but... I have included NA values as factors ( (to be able to make nice printed summaries with NAs % ba category ) with the following code dat$x.f<-factor(dat$x, exclude=NULL); levels(dat$x.f)<-c("A1","A2","A3","A4","NA"); length(dat$x.f) Now, I want to impute the missing values.

I would like R to produce some tabulated data in a graphical output. When I say tabulated data, what I mean is a table with rows and columns. This would be useful when reading in a big file, performing some analysis on it, and then wanting to display the results as a table. Something like plot(x,...) where x is a matrix For example, the result could look (approximatly) like...

Hello R helpers! I'm using the avas function form package acepack (called from areg.boot package Hmisc) to estimate automatically transformations of predictors (in this case monotonous) and response. Well, it seems to work quite well, but I have 3 basic questions: - which set of basis functions is used in this procedure? - how do I back transform my estimate (y hat ) to the originasl scale?

Hello RHelpers! I'm very ashamed but.... I'm creating quite a lot of plots in a big loop...each times the program ask me : > Hit <Return> to see next plot: How do I avoid that?

Hi! Does somebody out there has experience with the Zelig package from Harvard uni? I have a problem when trying to set the explanatory variables with setx Polytomous logistic regression: >z.out <- zelig(OPARS ~ v1+v2+v3+...+vn, model = "mlogit", data=heb) that's OK >x.out<-set(z.out) Error in seq.Date(along = object) : `from' must be specified #???

Hello! I have experienced problems with the script presented at pages 90-91 of the lartc howto. The script reduces the bandwith greatly and make the ping very high. I have tried many combinations for the UPSTRAM and DOWNSTREAM variables without success. Does anybody know were the problem comes from?

Dear R helpers, this is a question connex to the subject of reading large data-sets - I have a large db (MySQL) ~80'000 records for each year / 120 variates from which I extract relevant info to be treated in R (no problem) Now each record in my db represents an experimental unit; moreover I will get - in a few days- a set of separate files(one for each records....~80'000 files pro

As a newbie to R, I need to learn my way around (no previous experience of S).What books, doc for R are recommended? I'm interested primarly in non linear regression and process modelling (and have downloaded the R documentation from the site). Thanks for all tips Anne
