Hi I'd like to use R in epidemiology and disease surveillance. In EpiInfo you can have a script (.pgm) which calls a predefined report (.rpt), where a table is calculated and values picked from that table and placed where the author of the report wants them, with text around those values. (Please see example below.) I've looked at manuals, faq, mail-search and google. The closest is an

Hi, I would like to convert a decimal into a binary number, for instance : 2->(1,0) Any one knows how to do that ? Thanks a lot paul --- [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello, Splus contains the function intbin(x,l). This function allows to make a conversion from an integer x to a binary of length l. for example intbin(3,2) returns 11 intbin(3,3) returns 011 Do you know how to do it in R ? Thank you meriema

Dear listers, I have two questions: (1) Is there a way in R to change the base-n of the calculations. I wnat to run some calculations either in binary (base-2) or base-4. Is there a way to specify that in R - to chnage from the decimal? (2) I also want to extract the digits from a larger number and store them as a vector. I could do it through converting top string, parsing the string and

Hi there, From the vector X of integers, X = c(11999, 122000, 81997) I would like to make these two vectors: Z= c(1999, 2000, 1997) Y =c(1 , 12 , 8) That is, each entry of vector Z receives the four last digits of each entry of X, and Y receives "the rest". Any suggestions? Thanks in advance, Dimitri [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I have two vectors x and y, which I would like to plot against each other. I am also displaying other data in this plot. However, I have about 1 million points to plot, and just plotting them x againt y is not very informative. What I'd like to do is to do sort of a continuous box plot. My x values goes from -1 to 1 and my y values from 0 to 1, so I?d like to plot the median and quantiles,

Dear List, I have a problem I'm finding it difficult to make headway with. Say I have 6 ordered observations, and I want to find all combinations of splitting these 6 ordered observations in g groups, where g = 1, ..., 6. Groups can only be formed by adjacent observations, so observations 1 and 4 can't be in a group on their own, only if 1,2,3&4 are all in the group. For example,
