Hi, is there a function in R to convert data read with read.shape and which is originally in UTM coordinates into longitude / latitude coordinates? I found the convUL() function from the PBSmapping package but I have no idea how I could apply that to the read.shape object. Many thanks, Werner __________________________________________________ Do sragenden Schutz gegen Massenmails.

Hi, probably just a quick question: can I somehow change the formula used with predict? E.g., the regression was run on "y ~ u + v + w" but for the prediction the term v should be removed from the formula contained in the regression object and only "y ~ u + w" be used. I could use model.matrix etc. to do the predictions but it would be very helpful to know a simpler way.

Hi, I would like to see how model.matrix expands factor column to a set of dummy columns. I think that is done int .Internal(model.matrix(t, data)) which is called from model.matrix.default. But I have not idea how I can look at this function. How can I get to such internal functions? Thanks so much! Werner ____________________________________________ einen herausragenden Schutz gegen

Dears, could anyone give me some advice how to change some plotting parameters for a lattice graph? I need to adjust the following: -reduce outer margins (like par(mar=c(0,0,0,0)) with base graphs) -modify positions of labels (like par(mpg=c(0,0,0)) with base graphs) I already did some research, but got confused by the huge amount of settings with the lattice objects. I know that the road

Hi, I have to match names where names can be recorded with errors or additions. Now I am searching for a string search function which returns always the "closest" match. E.g. searching for "Washington" it should return only Washington but not Washington, D.C. But it also could be that the list contains only "Hamburg" but the record I am searching for is

Can openssh log which public key, as listed in the authorized keys file, was used to log in? If so, how? I don't see a config option, so I'm currently using a custom command via COMMAND="....." ssh-dss AAAAB3Nza..... key1 COMMAND="....." ssh-dss AAAABFFFF..... key2 to log the key. It would be nice if there was a better way. Suggestions? Anthony. -- Anthony R

Hi All, I have problem about the factor features. I read in a .cvs file, a column which is supposed to be numeric, but it becomes factor level data after reading in. mydata[,"newXaxis"] [1] 0 0.430010601 11.23198508 25.00940297 37.75338045 45.98289639 [7] 48.92328133 52.51142822 61.12359751 63.85832121 70.98927949 77.16550181 [13] 97.73545713 113.6588007 118.6588007

Dears, I am trying to implement some R package which is still under construction and has not yet been submitted to CRAN (RSSA, http://anton.korobeynikov.info/software). Documentation is yet very poor (or i just did not find it), so I am wondering whether there is any way to retrieve a list of commands available in this package from within R? And to find out whether the package is successfully

Hi all, Is there a function that allow me to concatenate each value in a vector to a string? x<-c("a","b","c","d") output string = a+b+c+d Thanks, phoebe [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi All, I have a dataset with a column named "Condition", Sample Condition 1 c20 2 c20 3 c10 4 c10 5 c9 6 c9 7 c5 8 c5 9 c20 10 c10 Could you let me know the fastest way to change c20->"AA", c20->"BB", c9->"CC", c5->"DD"

Hi there, I would like to draw a scatter plot and fit a smooth line by loess. Below is the data. However, the curve line started from 0, which my "resid" list doesn't consist of 0 value. It returned some warnings which I don't know if this is the reason affecting such problem. Here I also attached the warning messages. Please let me know if there is a solution to fix this. Thank

Dear list members, I need to translate 3 lines of matlab code to R (a loop, to be specific), and I don't know what would be the results in matlab or how to do it in R-- I don't realise if they are doing to the col, vector or what. if the results are a vector or a value or a matrix :-( Anyone with matlab, can run it and give me the result? Any ideias what am I doing wrong? The code is

Hi all, I would like to check if a string contains "." in it. If yes, I would like to know the position of "." in the string. Eg: X<-"NM1236.3" In above example, "." is at position 7. I tried functions grep() and match(). It seems they couldn't detect ".". Thanks in advance for your help, Sityee [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi all, I'm wondering if there is a function that can return summary statistics: N=total number of observation, # missing, mean, median, range, standard deviation. As I know, summary() returns some of info I've mentioned above. Thanks, SY [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi everyone, Quick summary: LLVM now has a new register allocator particularly suitable for compiling (very) large, machine-generated functions. Longer story: I've recently been using LLVM in an application that involves JITing fairly large functions that have no control flow - they're just flat sequences of instructions, anywhere from 100 to 10000+ in size. (The control flow is

Hi, Can someone tell me how to draw a histogram for the following summary? Richard Minnie Albert Helen Joe Kingston 12 33 56 67 15 66 The summary tell that Richard has occurrence 12, Minnie has occurrence 33, and so on. I would like to view this summary in a histogram. I want the X-axis be the person name (Richard, Minnie, ....), Y-axis be the

Hi All, I'm going to draw 8 plots in one page. I want the plots to be arranged in two rows, each row has 4 plots. So, I set the it par(mfrow=c(2,4)). However, there might be too many plots in a page, all the 8 plots were drawn in triangular shape, which makes the x-y coordinate scale not in same length, the x-axis length is much shorter than the y-axis length. Could anybody let me know how
