Hello All and thanks in advance for any advice. I have a data frame with rows corresponding radio-collared animals (see sample data below). There is a start date (DATESTART), and end date (DATEEND), and the number of days on air (DAYSONAIR). What I would like to do is add a column called DATE to so that each row ID has a row for every day that the radio collar was on the air while copying all

I am evaluating rsync for the mirroring of a website and associated database. To exercise it and establish the correct run string I need I am running tests LOCALLY between two test directories.

Dear R-users, I have the following problem In a lab experiment I have to mix three solutions to get different concentrations of various molecules in a cuvette I've used R to calculate the necessary ?liters for each of the level of the experiment and I must confess that it is more useful and easier to achieve the results than using spreadsheets. But there's a problem. Imagine that

I am in the process of migrating from running CentOS 4.8 (32-bit) to CentOS 5.4 (64-bit) on my AMD Sempron(tm) Processor LE-1300 system (it is running CentOS 4.8 32-bit because the disk images are from a previous PIII system), and things are 'interesting' WRT how the Lava Computer mfg Inc Quattro-PCI card is being handled. lspci (on CentOS 4.8 32-bit) yields: 01:0a.0 Serial controller:

There's a new page on the Burns Statistics website http://www.burns-stat.com/pages/Tutor/spreadsheet_addiction.html that looks at spreadsheets from a quality assurance perspective. It presents R as a suitable alternative to spreadsheets. Also there are several specific problems with Excel that are highlighted, including the status of statistical functionality in Excel.

Hi, I've posted the same problem several months ago, You can find my post there: http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2006-March/119244.html I summed up all the whole thing: I run a samba server based on slackware 10.2, using samba 3.0.20 with two clients: a windows 98 box and a windows 2000 box. I've got a share between the two system which hosts an old spreadsheet program (quattro pro)

I have encountered a problem with faceted bar plots. I have tried to create something like the example explained in the ggplot2 book (see pp. 126-128): library(ggplot2) mpg4 <- subset(mpg, manufacturer %in% c("audi", "volkswagen", "jeep")) mpg4$manufacturer <- as.character(mpg4$manufacturer) mpg4$model <- as.character(mpg4$model) base <-

Hi all, A hopefully quick query. I was reading a posting over at gnomedesktop.org on the latest release of Gnumeric 1.4: http://gnomedesktop.org/node/2090 There is a mention there: Improved accuracy: While Gnumeric 1.2 was already the best available source for accuracy in statistical calculations, Gnumeric 1.4 is even better. We are cooperating with The R Project to

Its February 6, 2012. I just downloaded all the updates to Ubuntu 11.10 64bit. I think the updates just came out today. It was a bigger package of updates than the others I have installed in the past. I do not know what they did but whatever it was, it fixed most of the problems in CorelDRAW 9. I gave it a rating of bronze, and that was being generous, just a few days ago. It seems as thou

When trying to delete or copy over certain files on my Samba server, Windows hangs for some time and then gives "access denied". I can delete these files directly from the server, so it's a Samba or Windows problem. There seems to be nothing special about these files, other than that Samba doesn't like touching them. Upon checking the Samba logs, I find this message or

I have searched the archives and I did not find the answer to my question. Is there a way to read in a .odf spreadsheet without modification to a .csv file. I am analyzing my classes scores on their first exam, and would like to read the grade book in without converting it to .csv. thanks -- Stephen Sefick Let's not spend our time and resources thinking about things that are so little or

Hello, I could not yet create combined graph in R. To avoid misunderstands, three examples (originally created in Quattro pro) have been attached. At first, I don't know how to create graph composed of bars and areas in the same picture as it is shown in the balance graph (h2plc02.gif). I am sendind the original data table from that I need make the same charts. First column (julian day)

I am thinking about writing a new open source spreadsheet application since I think the spreadsheet applications out there (Microsoft Excel, LibreOffice Calc, etc.) do not have some features that I would really like to use. I would like the spreadsheet to recalculate very fast and wondered if it would make sense to use LLVM to calculate the cell values quickly. Each cell of a spreadsheet

Still having a situation, in particular with Microsoft Office products (Excel, MS Word, etc), wherein a user locks up while saving a file. The scenario goes as follows: user opens up a file (excel document, word document, etc), user changes file, user hits save, user hangs... `top` reports an smbd belonging to user locked in some sort of loop causing 99% cpu utilization. net status sessions

I would really appreciate some help figuring out why one of my students has "disappeared" from the user list, and what to do about it.

Today one of my 4th-graders was unable to log on; she didn't read the error message carefully, so she

Hi all, As happens from time to time, discussions on this list appear regarding the use of popular spreadsheets for statistical analysis. One such thread (post of mine) is here: http://maths.newcastle.edu.au/~rking/R/help/03a/6326.html While not advocating such use, these discussions have referenced articles that provide independent reviews of these applications and issues of accuracy, etc.
