Hello dear R help members, I wish to get a nice LaTeX table for a rq object. Trying to use the functions I found so far wouldn't work. I can start opening the functions up, but I am wondering if I had missed some function which is the one I should be using. Here is an example session for a bunch of possible errors: (Thanks) data(stackloss) y <- stack.loss x <- stack.x rq_object

Hello all, I wish to fit a loess smother to a plot of Y`X, but in predicting the 95% quantile. Something that will be a combination of what rq (package quantreg} does, with loess. Is there a function/method for doing this?

Hello dear R help members. I am trying to understand the anova.rq, and I am finding something which I can not explain (is it a bug?!): The example is for when we have 3 nested models. I run the anova once on the two models, and again on the three models. I expect that the p.value for the comparison of model 1 and model 2 would remain the same, whether or not I add a third model to be compared

Hello all, I recently discovered the "comment" command. I see it can only hold a vector of characters. Is there a way (or an alternative), to make it possible to have it keep a list? (for example, to keep different pieces of information like date of creation, information of each variable and so on) The closest solution I can think of is using 'names' on the vector, like this:

Hello all, I believe this can be done using bootstrap, but I am wondering if there is some other way that might be used to tackle this. #Let's say I have two pairs of samples: set.seed(100) s1 <- rnorm(100) s2 <- s1 + rnorm(100) x1 <- s1[1:99] y1 <- s2[1:99] x2 <- x1 y2 <- s2[2:100] #And both yield the following two correlations: cor(x1,y1) # 0.7568969 (cor1) cor(x2,y2)

Hi all, I'm having some troubles with the Quantreg package. I am using R version 2.10.0, and have downloaded the most recent version of Quantreg (4.44) and SparseM (0.83 - required package). However, when I try to run an analysis (e.g. fit1<-rq(y~x, tau=0.5)) I get an error message saying that the function "rq" could not be found. I get the same message when I try to search

After reading more, I understand I didn't formulate my last question correctly, so please allow me to rephrase: What I am looking for is a way to save the R console session output. That is, a command that would combine the results of using: ?sink # And ?savehistory My motivation for this is that doing it will allow someone who is a blind user of R to be able to easily export his results to

Hello all, The following line of code includes a right-to-left language text, yet the R graphics engine displays it from left to right. One problem this causes is when there are parenthesis in the test, here is a basic example? plot(1:10, main = "שלום (טקסט)") Is there a way to make sure the text is displayed from right to left?

Hello dear R-help mailing list. I wish to be able to have htmlParse work well with Hebrew, but it keeps to scramble the Hebrew text in pages I feed into it.
