reading a text file, one line at a time
Hi, I have an upcoming project that will involve a large text file. I want to 1. read the file into R one line at a time 2. do some string manipulations on the line 3. write the line to another text file. I can handle the last two parts. Scan and read.table seem to read the whole file in at once. Since this is a very large file (several hundred thousand lines), this is not

median comparison tests
Hi, A client has a consumption measure on each of four products. The sample size is 75. The consumption distributions are highly skewed for each product. He would like a pairwise comparison test of the products, much like Tukey's HSD but using medians rather than means. Is there such a median comparison test in R?

installing Rgraphviz
Hi, I attempted to install Rgraphviz but ran into a problem. It requires graphviz 2.20.3. I have this and installed it but the Windows 7 system path variable has to be modified to include the path to the graphviz bin file. How do I do this on Windows 7? It's been a long time since I had to change the path variable. Thanks, Walt ________________________ Walter R. Paczkowski, Ph.D.

pattern matching
Hi, I have a simple question. Suppose I have a string "x$Expensive". I want to find the position of the $ in this string; i.e., I want a function that returns 2. I tried grep, regexpr, etc with no luck, unless I'm just using them incorrectly. Any suggestions? Thanks, Walt ________________________ Walter R.

using the system command
Hi, I started playing around with a function for using StatTransfer (version 10) for importing data. This started as a simple task but it's not working and so now I'm very frustrated. I'm using R version 2.13 on Windows 7. The function, called fn.importData, is: function(file = NULL, type = NULL){ ## ## create statTransfer command file -

listing all test functions in base R
Hi, Is there a way to create a list of all statistical test functions in base R? For example, there's t.test, ks.test, chisq.test, etc. I'd like to create a list of these test names because I keep looking for different tests but never know what's available. I'm thinking of a regular expression statement but I'm not sure how this would work for functions. Or is there a

Estimating choice models at the individual level
Hi, I have a discrete choice model to estimate for a client that I originally planned to estimate as an aggregate model using a clogit routine. Now the client is asking for results for many segments of the respondents which would mean, if I stayed with my original plan, I would have to estimate a large number of models. I could certainly do this, but I'm thinking that it would be

RODBC problem
Hi, I'm attempting to use the RODBC package on Windows Vista to import an excel spreadsheet. The spreadsheet has three worksheets the last of which is blank. Following an example in Phil Spector's book (p. 34), after creating a connection named con I did the following: > con RODBC Connection 3 Details: case=nochange DBQ=c:\temp\test.xls DefaultDir=c:\temp

Multiple graphs
Hi, I wrote a simple master function, run(), that has inside six qplot functions. The goal is to type run() and have all six graphs appear as separate windows so that I can copy them into PowerPoint for a client. When I type run(), only the last graph appears, the first five apparently being overwritten. How do I get all six in separate windows, ready for copying? By the way, is the a way

Running Internet Explorer from Withing R
Good morning, Is it possible to open an html file using IE but from within R? I wrote a small function to generate tables in html but I'd like to write another function to call IE and open the html file. Thanks, Walt Paczkowski ________________________ Walter R.

reading a text file with a stray carriage return
Hi, I'm hoping someone has a suggestion for handling a simple problem. A client gave me a comma separated value file (call it x.csv) that has an id and name and address for about 25,000 people (25,000 records). I used read.table to read it, but then discovered that there are stray carriage returns on several records. This plays havoc with read.table since it starts a

Using an editor with R
Hello, I changed the setting in options$editor to allow me to use my favorite editor. In R 2.1.1 on Windows XP, I entered at the command line: options(editor="c:\\program files\\winedit\\winedit.exe") When I edited a function, say test, using fix(test), the editor opened perfectly. But, when I saved the file and closed the editor, the R gui screen was white, blank, and completely

Using pakage foreign and to import SAS file

scaling advice
Hi, I have a consultants nightmare -- I was given a project that another consultant did and I was told to do the same calculations, but there's no documentation on what he did. Basically, I have yes/no answers to survey questions about the effectiveness of product attributes by brands. There are 44 attributes and 13 brands. The other guy scaled the proportion of respondents who said

.Rprofile file
Hi, I want to use the .RProfile to set defaults such as text editor. Is this a file I need to create? Also, where should I put it? I tend to create .RData files for different projects, putting each in a different Windows (Vista) folder. Is one .Rprofile file created that any instance of R can access (I would imagine so)? Thanks, Walt -- ________________________ Walter R.

cross-over designs
Hi, I have a dataset from a client where the data is from a cross-over design. Basically, each subject in a survey was asked to rate two products, A and B. The subject sampled A first and then after an appropriate wash-out period he/she sampled B. The next subject did the same, but in a different order. How can I do an ANOVA analysis on a cross-over design with only two treatments. This

finding the intersection of two vectors
Hi, Suppose I have two vectors, not necessarily the same length (in fact, they usually are different lengths): y.1 that has increasing values between 0 and 1; y.2 that has decreasing values between 1.0 and 0. You can picture these as being supply (= y.1) and demand (= y.2) curves from economics. I typically plot these vectors on the same graph against a common x variable, which happens to

ggplot2 and mtext question
Hi, In R base graphics, the function mtext can be used to add text to the margins of a plot. This is very useful for adding notes (such as data source, sample size, etc.) to the bottom of a graph. How can such notes be added to the bottom of a graph when using ggplot2? Thanks, Walt -- ________________________ Walter R. Paczkowski, Ph.D. Data Analytics Corp. 44 Hamilton Lane
