Hello, I'm running a very long for loop that usually takes hours. For my own piece of mind, it would be nice if I could check periodically and see which iteration the loop is on. A line of code that told R to print the iteration number every 100 or 200 iterations would be perfect. Does anyone know something like this? I've never known how to print anything within a for loop before the

Hello, I created an array to hold the results of a series of simulations I'm running: d.eta <- array(0,dim=c(3,3,200)) <simulation goes here and populates the array but it's not important> Then I tried to save the results using this: save(d.eta,file="D:/Simulation Results/sim 9-23-11 deta") When I later tried to reload them using this: d.eta <-

Hello, Is there a way to get a single TRUE or FALSE statement from comparing two vectors? For example, c(1,2,3) == c(1,2,3) produces TRUE TRUE TRUE where I would like it to produce only TRUE for use in an if statement. Likewise, when two vectors are not exactly identical (in all elements) I would like a single FALSE result, as opposed to c(1,2,3) == c(1,2,5) TRUE TRUE FALSE Any ideas?

Hello, I'm clearly confused about the merge function. In the following r <- merge(x,y,all.x=T,all.y=F) my y vector has only unique values (no duplicates). So I don't understand how this can ever generate an r which is of greater length than x. I thought the default behavior was only matching rows are included, but that using all.x=T included rows with unmatched x's as well. If

Hello, I'm attempting to install the splm package from R-Forge. https://r-forge.r-project.org/R/?group_id=352 The page says, "In order to successfully install the packages provided on R-Forge, you have to switch to the most recent version of R..." It later says "To install this package directly within R type: install.packages("splm",

Hello, A colleague is trying to do a fairly complicated power analysis for a project. The project would be evaluating random assignment to one of three conditions within each of 8 sites. The dependent variable would be binary (we do not care at this point whether it would be analyzed with logit or probit). We can simulate the data in a bunch of iterations and do analyses in each iteration, but

Hello, I hate to ask a question which is directly addressed in the documentation, but can someone please give me an example of how to change the maximum number of iterations used by lmer. I'm having a hard time understanding this: control a list of control parameters. See below for details. control a named list of control parameters for the estimation algorithm, specifying only

Hello, I am using {plm} to estimate panel models. I want to estimate a model that includes fixed effects for time and individual, but has a random individual effect for the coefficient on the independent variable. That is, I would like to estimate the model: Y_it = a_i + a_t + B_i * X_it + e_it Where i denotes individuals, t denotes time, X is my independent variable, and B (beta) is the

I am trying to do a tutorial improvement on the wiki but I am having some problems with the auto formatting. Using httdp.conf produces http://httpd.conf when filtered. Using *.so produces .so and bold text there after. Is there any shorthand for the user for making text appear as it should without the linking and re-writes? Or does the admin have to change the filters in Instiki? Tesla

Hi, Rsync is still hanging under cygwin for me. I'm using rsync 2.6.0 and i've tried cygwin-1.5.6-1 as well as a snapshot of 1.5.7. I've noticed that some people are having success. I shouldn't have to do anything interesting in order to make this work, right? *********************************************************************** This message is intended only for the use of

Hello, I'd like to plot an empirical cumulative distribution function, except instead of the fraction of values < x, I'd like the fraction of values > x. I think this can be done using the ecdf function in {Hmisc}. I installed the package and loaded it. However, when following the example given in the documentation, I get an error: x <- rnorm(100) ecdf(x,what='1-F')

Hi, I would like to estimate a VAR of the form: Ay_t = By_t-1 + Cy_t-2 + ... + Dx_t + e_t Where A is a non-diagonal matrix of coefficients, B and C are matricies of coefficients and D is a matrix of coefficients for the exogenous variables. I don't think the package {vars} can do this because I want to include contemporaneous cross-variable impacts. So I want y1_t to affect y2_t and I

I want to use ActiveRecord outside of Rails to do processing on large tables. I want to be able to process the rows as they are retrieved rather than having to store the results in an intermediate array. Any suggestions? Looks like I could hack the adapter to provide an accessor to the underlying DBI handle. Anything cleaner than that?

I understand that Rcmdr needs the tcltk package in order to run. However, when I attempt to using the library (Rcmdr) command, I get the message below. I have attempted to start X in R as well as using starting it from the Utilities folder on my Mac to no avail. I can't figure out if there is an issue with X11 or with R itself (I just updated to 1Is there a terminal command I can use

Is there a way to use the "link_to" function in a controller?

Is there a way I can have print statements in Rails code that will go either to the WEBrick console (prefered) or to a log file?

I have a Model whose table name and primary key don''t follow Rails conventions. So I have used set_table_name() and set_primary_key() and can do the Record.find() method ok. My problem is that the Record.new(params[:id]) idiom in a controller complains: undefined method `stringify_keys!'' for "REAL_PKEY":String Is there something else I need to do?

Hello, I don''t know anything about Rails optimization, however... is it possible to select only specified columns in order to tell Active Record not to load everything from the table as does @items = Item.find(:all) ? Thank you

Hi, Is there a security problem with ssh that I've missed??? Ik keep getting these hords of: Failed password for root from 69.242.5.195 port 39239 ssh2 with all kinds of different source addresses. They have a shot or 15 and then they are of again, but a little later on they're back and keep clogging my logs. Is there a "easy" way of getting these ip-numbers added to
