-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi I know there is a function - I have used it before - but I always forget what it is called...

Hi Dirk, Thanks for the explamnayion - Debian is running in a VM (and nothing really installed on it) , and I think the easiest is for me just to install Debian 10 and to use that one.

Hi I am trying to install the package "pheno", but it needs the package "nprq" by Roger Koenker et al. which I can I find this package? It does not seem to be on CRAN and googling also doesn't give me an URL - is it still somewhere available?

Hi this might be a little bit off topic, but here it goes: lets assume I have the following: set.seed(13) dat1 <- rnorm(2000, mean=10, sd=10) dat2 <- rnorm(100, mean=10, sd=20) d.all <- density(dat, n=1024) d.co <- density(x[[v]], , from=min(d.all$x), to=max(d.all$x), n=1024) d.diff <- list( x = d.all$x,

Hi I am comparing four different linear mixed effect models, derived from updating the original one. To compare these, I want to use anova(). I therefore do the following (not reproducible - just to illustration purpose!): dat <- loadSPECIES(SPECIES) subs <- expression(dead==FALSE & recTreat==FALSE) feff <- noBefore~pHarv*year # fixed effect in the model reff <-

Hi I upgraded to R 2.10.0, and I encounter a problem with some packages on R, installed via apt-get.. They are still compiled by 2.9 and give me an warning when I load the packages. Will these packages be recompiled with R 2.10, or should I rather switch to self-compiling? Cheers, Rainer -- Rainer M. Krug, PhD (Conservation Ecology, SUN), MSc (Conservation Biology, UCT), Dipl.

Hi is there an alternative to par(new), for ading data to a plot for a different y-axis? My problem with par(new=TRUE) is, that it re-defines all axis and labels (as in example 1) and one has to use xlim=... to fix the x-axis. I am looking for something, which simply resets the y-axis, so that a new plot() (or points()/lines()) keeps the x-axis, but re-defines the y-axis. Is there something

Hi I know this is likely documented somewhere, but I can?t find it. How can I install R > 4.0.0 on Debian 9 Stretch? Thanks a lot, Rainer -- Rainer M.

Hi I want to do a series of linear models, and would like to define the input arguments for lm() as variables. I managed easily to define the formula arguments in a variable, but I also would like to have the "subset" in a variable. My reasoning is, that I have the subset in the results object. So I wiould like to add a line like: subs <- dead==FALSE & recTreat==FALSE which

Hi is there an easy and fast way, to generate a BibTeX file of all installed / loaded packages and R? I know about toBibtex(citation()) to extract the BibTeX for a single package, but how can I generate a file containg citations for all installed / loaded packages?

Hi I have a plist t which contains size measurements of individual plants, identified by the field "plate". It contains, among other, a field "year" indicating the year in which the individual was measured and the "height". The number of measurements range from 1 to 4 measurements in different years. My problem is that I would need the LAST measurement. I only

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Just to be sure: I couldn't find a way of creating an interactive 3d graph which can be embedded in a pdf - is it correct that this can not be done with R?

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi I have to replace the last element of a vector with 0, but the length of x is not known at coding time. So I do the following: x <- 1:10 x x[length(x)] <- 0 x it is working nicely, but I am wondering: is there a more elegant solution( like tail(x, 1) <- 0 , which does not work)?

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi I am writing simulations in R, and quite regularly, I have to save lists and objects to HDD and load it later again. So I am wondering: why is there no function to write lists (and S3, S4 objects) onto HDD WITHOUT keeping the name? What I mean is: For data.frames I can use x <- data.frame(x = runif(10)) write.table(x, "x.txt) rm(x) y

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi I would like to create a Namespace during runtime, and not during loading a package. My reasoning is that I want to be able to store a number of variables and to "protect them from the user" (might be even myself). The code will not be in a package, but will be source()ed. Next step: pass variables from org mode / emacs to R and to

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi I have 10.000 simulations for a sensitivity analysis. I have done a few sensitivity analysis for different response variables already, but now, as most of the simulations (if not all) show some cyclic behaviour, see how the independent input parameter influence the frequency of the cyclic changes and "how cyclic" they actually are.
