Hi, everyone, I haven't found anything similar in the forum, so here's my problem (I'm no expert in R nor statistics): I have a data set of 59.000 cases with 9 variables each (fractional coverage of 9 different plant types, such as deciduous broad-leaved temperate trees or evergreen tropical trees etc.), which was generated by a vegetation model. In order to evaluate the quality of

Hi. I have a factor and I want to extract just those elements that appear exactly once. How to do this? Toy example follows. > a <- as.factor(c(rep("oak",5) ,rep("ash",1),rep("elm",1),rep ("beech",4))) > a [1] oak oak oak oak oak ash elm beech beech beech beech Levels: ash beech elm oak > table(a) a ash beech elm oak

I was asked by my boss to do an analysis on a large data set, and I am trying to convince him to let me use R rather than SPSS. I think Sweave could make my life much much easier. To get me a little closer to this goal, I ran my analysis through R and SPSS and compared the resulting values. In all but one case, they were the same. Given the matrix [,1] [,2] [1,] 110 358 [2,] 71 312 [3,]

Dear List, If any of observed and/or expected data has less than 5 frequencies, then chisq.test (Pearson's Chi-squared Test for Count Data from package:stats) gives warning messages. For example, x<-c(10, 14, 10, 11, 11, 7, 8, 4, 1, 4, 4, 2, 1, 1, 2, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1) y<-c(9.13112391745095, 13.1626482033341, 12.6623267638188, 11.0130706413029, 9.16415925139016,

I know this is something simple that I cannot do because I do not yet "think" in R. I have a data frame has a variable participation (a factor), and several other factors. I want a chisq test (no contingency tables) for participation vs all of the other factors. In SPSS I would do: CROSSTABS /TABLES= (my other factors) BY participation /FORMAT=NOTABLES /STATISTICS=CHISQ

Hello everybody, I'm seeing some strange behavior on R 1.8.1 on Intel/Linux compiled with gcc 3.2.2.

Dear list members, I'd like to perform a glm analysis with a hierarchically nested design. In particular, I have one fixed factor ("Land Use Classes") with three levels and a random factor ("quadrat") nested within Land Use Classes with different levels per classes (class artificial = 1 quadrat; class crops = 67 quadrats; and class seminatural = 30 quadrats). I have four

Dear UseRs, I'm running a chi-squared test where the expected matrix is the same as the observed, after rounding. R reports a X-squared of zero with a p value of one. I can justify this because any other result will deviate at least as much from the expected because what we observe is the expected, after rounding. But the formula for X-squared, sum (O-E)^2/E gives a positive value. What

... Well, this works in this simple case, but is too clumsy for a general formulation of this problem: given a "dictionary" consisting of two character vectors of unique "names" (or two columns in a data frame), x and y, how does one convert a factor z with levels in x into the corresponding equivalent with levels in y? There are likely a zillion ways to do this with various
