Dear useRs, French reading people among you might be interested by the following book: Noel, Y. (2013). Psychologie statistique avec R [Statistical psychology with R, in French], coll. PratiqueR, Paris: Springer. http://www.springer.com/psychology/book/978-2-8178-0424-8 This book provides a detailed presentation of all basics of statistical inference for psychologists, both in a fisherian

Dear users, I would like to plot several histograms superimposed on the same panel with different colors, with superimposed polygons appearing with transparency effects. I also want estimated densities to appear on the same plot. For several reasons, including that I like it, I want to use the lattice package. I have several questions regarding the use of the 'histogram' function with a

Hello all, To anyone who is interested, I'm trying to learn a bit more about developing applications in R with user interfaces. I've been playing around with gWidgets to develop a model building interface. I'd appreciate any comments, suggestions, or guidance on how to better structure my R code and organize the programming task. In addition, any suggestions for features and

Hello everyone. I would like to create many objects with R. Does R support objects? The number of objects needed is not predetermined and it is a parameter specified by the user. If the user selects to create many objects like 100, would it be possible to handle each one by some index? I would like to thank you in advance for your help. Best Regards Alex [[alternative HTML version

Can anyone suggest a package or code for modeling a hysteresis process in R? I'm currently modeling a certain dataset with a GAM using mgcv, something like gam(y~ s(x, by=z) + z, family = Gamma(link=log),data=data) and getting fits with about 9 estimated degrees of freedom in the smooth for each value of z. FWIW, z is a treatment applied to a system which should have made an improvement,

I want to run Shapiro-Wilk test for each variable in my dataset, each grouped by variable groupFactor. I have these working commands: > data.n<-names(data) # put names into a vector called data.n > by(eval(parse(text=(paste("data",data.n[3],sep="$")))), data$factor, shapiro.test) #run shapiro.test but I must to change the variable number manualy.

Dear all, I am trying to learn Bayesian inference and Bayesian data analysis, I am new in the field. Would any experts on the list recommend any good sites or materials for beginners? My approach is to learn and understand the theory first, then program on my own using R, though I see there are already packages. appreciate any help, thanks in advance!

Hello Helpers, I have some problems with fitting the model for my data... -->my Literatur says (crawley testbook)= Non-normality of errors-->I get a banana shape Q-Q plot with opening of banana downwards Structure of data: origin wt pes gender 1 wild 5.35 147.0 male 2 wild 5.90 148.0 male 3 wild 6.00 156.0 male 4 wild 7.50 157.0 male 5 wild 5.90

I'm an SPSS user trying to make the transition to R.

Also. can anyone recommend any resources to help SPSS users learn to things in R? Thanks, -kristi [[alternative HTML

Hi, I have a seemingly common problem but I can't find a proper way to approach it. Let's say we have 5 samples (different size) of IC circuits coming from 5 production lines (A, B, C, D, E). We apply two different non-destructive QA procedures to each sample, producing to sets of binary outcomes (passed: no/yes). So, we have two groups of proportions: QA1 QA2 no/yes no/yes A

Hi, I am wondering if anyone knows how to perform an F-test on the change in R square between hierarchical models in R? SPSS provides this information and a researcher that I am working with is interested in getting this information. Alternatively, if someone knows how I can calculate the test statistic (SPSS calls it F-change?) and dfs that would be helpful as well. The output and the test I am

Hello, I would like to plot a series of math symbols on a graph with ordered indicies : expression(delta[1]) expression(delta[2]) etc. Is there a mean to write this in a for loop ? for(i in 1:6) text(i,i,expression(delta[i])) does not work ('i' is not evaluated). Thanks in advance, Y. Noel

How can i replicate this in Linux: source(file.choose()) I've tried source(tkgetOpenFile()) but with no luck

Hi, I am trying to normalize some data. First I fitted a principal curve (using the LCPM package), but now I would like to apply a transformation so that the curve becomes a "straight diagonal line" on the plot. The data used to fit the curve would then be normalized by applying the same transformation to it. A simple solution could be to apply translations only (e.g., as done after a

Is there any way that I can see the step by step code for functions in the base package? For instance the dexp function. I am a student working on writing my own function for something that is similar to this dexp function and I would like to see the step by step code.

Dear list, has anyone written a package/function in R for computing a point- biserial resp. biserial correlation? Thanks in advance Bernd

Back in the days of DOS I had a program that I obtained from somewhere called FILL. FILL would take the name of a directory and then start writing files from that directory onto a series of floppy disks in such a way that each disk was made as full as possible, but without modifying the files that it was writing. So you might end up with disk 1 having files A B and D on them since D fitted but C

Hello, I've seen this question asked in the archives but no clear reply or solution provided. So, just to be sure it is not possible in R: Can I replace backslashes with slashes in a string ? I am writing a GUI for R with the Rpad library. I have a "browse" button for data loading and Windows return a path string with backslashes. I need to convert them into slashes to use the

Hi, I'm quite new to the R-project. I was suggested to look into it because I am trying to solve the "Subset sum" problem", which basically is: Given a set of integers and an integer s, does any non-empty subset sum to s? (See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subset_sum_problem) I have been searching the web for quite some time now (which is how I eventually discovered that my

Hi I am having problems with the rendering of scientific symbols (mu and degree) in my plots. Whenever I use these symbols they are rendered changed (mu is changed to the proportionality symbol and degree is changed to something resembling a gamma) in the X-device. If I make a pdf of the plot and open the file in Evince or Okular symbols are also rendered wrong, however if I open the file
