Dear R Users, I am working in an environment in which I am not able to compile any code. Sad, but true. Is there a Windows 32-bit version of 2-15.2 anywhere ? I am currently unable to use packages Matrix and mgcv because they appear to have been compiled for 2-15.2 but only 2-15.1 is available for download from the regular CRAN websites. Thanks in advance, Tolga This email is confidential and

Dear R Users, I am trying to get plot.zoo to place monthy tickmarks/labels for a time series which spans daily data going back a bit over a year. Right now, I am getting only one tick mark on the x-axis for the beginning of 2008. How can I force plot.zoo to place more regular x-axis tick marks on a monthly basis ? Thanks in advance, Tolga Generally, this communication is for informational

Dear R-Users, I am looking for a way to get legends placed automagically in an empty spot on a graph. Additional complication comes through my useage of multiple graphs on the same plot through mfrow. Is there a way to achieve this in R ? I have legends for each of the sub-plots.

Dear R Users, I am on Windows XP SP2 platform, using R version 2.7.2 . I was wondering if there is a way to find out, within R, the number of CPU's on my machine ? I would use this information to set the number of nodes in a cluster, depending on the machine. Sys.info() and .Platform do not carry this information.

Dear R Users, I would like to plot three time series on the same graph, two axis on the left and one axis on the right. The time series that I am graphing on the left do not share a similar scale: one has a range of 1:100 and the other a range of 25000:70000. How can I display the tick marks for both on the left hand side without superimposing them, i.e. one set of tick marks in black right

Dear R-Users, I've written a number of functions in a .R/script file. I would like to call those functions from another script file. How can I execute all the code in a script file so that the functions are available for use in my other script file ? I have tried help.search("script") and various Google alternatives but couldn't come up with anything. Thanks in advance,

Dear R Users, A bit of an elementary question, but somehow, I haven't been able to figure it out. I'd like to changes the column names of a data frame, so I am looking for something like col.names (as in row.names). Could someone please show me how to change the column names of a data frame ?

Dear R Users, A bit of a simple question, but I could not find the answer thru google ("sorting lists r cran","how can i sort a list r cran") or RSiteSearch... how can I sort a list ? One imagines something like sort.list would do the job, but that's not the one. > foo<-list(a=10,b=2,c=3) > sort.list(foo) Error in sort.list(foo) : 'x' must be atomic

Dear R Users, I would like to get the pdf() command to create graphics in landscape mode, as I am plotting 8 graphs in 2 rows and 4 columns. This is being generated for an a4 printer (so I also use the paper="a4" command). Is there a way I can ask pdf() to generate the document in landscape mode ?

Dear R Users, I am trying to do something quite simple: replace the elements of a zoo object. For some reason, the following code does not seem to work. How can I replace the value for the 14th of Dec of 2008 in the zoo object x below with 1 (it is currently NA). > x 2008-12-11 2008-12-12 2008-12-13 2008-12-14 2008-12-15 2008-12-16 361.667 389.875 NA NA 397.822

Hi all, could someone tell me which is the best user-friendly free/open source sql database system to use with R, particularly as a back-end for a data-hungry web page? Thanks in advance. Kind Regards Chibisi [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear Achim, R Users, What am I doing wrong in this example ? a<-zoo(rnorm(100),order.by=1:100) b<-lag(a) regr<-na.exclude(merge(a,b)) plot(regr) grangertest(regr[,1],regr[,2],3) > a<-zoo(rnorm(100),order.by=1:100) > b<-lag(a) > regr<-na.exclude(merge(a,b)) > plot(regr) > grangertest(regr[,1],regr[,2],3) Error in solve(vc[ovar, ovar]) : subscript out of bounds

Dear R Users, The granger.test command in the MSBVAR package estimates all possible bivariate Granger causality tests for m variables. If one passes a data frame with 3 rows, it returns 6 granger tests in two rows, one for the F-statistic and another for the p-value. For example: > a<-rnorm(1:10) > b<-c(lag(a),rnorm(1)) > c<-c(lag(b),rnorm(1)) >

Dear R Users, I am looking for a smoothing function with the following characteristics for a time series of data: - at each date, should only use data up to that date (so, right aligned and not centered) - should return a smoothed series of length equal to the original time series: - for a one-day time series, just returns that day - this means the front part of the series will

Hi all, I am trying to do a 3d plot where the x,y,z axes intersects with the origin (0,0,0) using the plot3d() funtion in the rgl package without success. I looked back at the past archives on this subject and someone suggested using djmrgl package. I searched and found it, installed it but when I try to load it I get the error ... Error in inDL(x, as.logical(local), as.logical(now), ...) :

Dear all, I am using lapply to generate plots by applying a plot function to a list of dataframes. e.g. lapply(dataSet, FUN = plotFunction) Is there a way to call the list item number inside the plot function so that I can identify each graph? Thanks Chibisi [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear R Users, I am looking for an alternative to AIC or BIC to choose model parameters. This is somewhat of a general statistics question, but I ask it in this forum as I am looking for a R solution. Suppose I have one dependent variable, y, and two independent variables, x1 an x2. I can perform three regressions: reg1: y~x1 reg2: y~x2 reg3: y~x1+x2 The AIC of reg1 is 2000, reg2 is

Dear R Users, Is anyone aware of a package which calculates the Yule Kendall resistant (to errors,outliers) measure of skewness ? An easy calculation to perform, but was just wondering if a package exists (as the contents of that package would probably include other cool things I would also be interested).
