I am having some trouble creating a hierarchy of virtual classes (akin to the class structure in the 'Matrix' package). I think they arise from my not understanding the best way to specify virtual subclasses of a virtual class. please see questions below code. setClass("mom") setClass("kid1", representation("mom", "VIRTUAL"))

I am simulating sickness among a group of families. Part of the task is to randomly draw who in the family will be sick, randomly drawing from family ID's where Dad =1, Mom = 2, Kid1 = 3, Kid2 = 4., etc. My census of Dads is of the form shown below. Dad_ID Spouse (Y=1;N=0) #Kids #People_Becoming_Sick 1 1 0 1 2

Hello! I am aggregating using a formula in aggregate - of the type: aggregate(cbind(var1,var2,var3)~factor1+factor2,sum,data=mydata) However, I actually have an object (vector of my variables to be aggregated): myvars<-c("var1","var2","var3") I'd like my aggregate formula (its "cbind" part) to be able to use my "myvars" object. Is it

Hi All, i have searched the web for a simple solution but have been unable to find one. Can anyone recommend a neat way of deleting multiple variable? I see, i need to use dataframe$VAR<-NULL to get rid of one variable, In my situation i need to delete all vars between two points. I've used the 'which' function to find these out and have assigned to myvar >myvars [1] 2 17 but

All, I believe I am running the latest version of rshape2 (1.2.1). But this code: library(reshape2) tmp <- melt(smiths, id.vars=1:2, measure.vars=c("age","weight","height"), variable.name="myvars", value.name="myvals" ) names(tmp) Produces this output: > names(tmp) [1] "subject" "time"

Hello! I have a data set: set.seed(123) y<-data.frame(week=seq(as.Date("2010-01-03"), as.Date("2011-01-31"),by="week")) y$var1<-c(1,2,3,round(rnorm(54),1)) y$var2<-c(10,20,30,round(rnorm(54),1)) # All I need is to create lagged variables for var1 and var2. I looked around a bit and found several ways of doing it. They all seem quite complicated - while in

Hi, is it possible to Restore files deleted with " rm rf " from ext4 or ext3 filesystem by mistake. Regards Ahmad

Hi, I hope that folks can give me some simple approaches to taking the data set below, which is accumulated in two columns called "long" and "group", then arrange the data is the "long" column into a data frame containing five variables: "Group 1", "Group 2", "Group 3", "Group 4", and "Group 5". I am hoping for a few

Hello, I am running cluster analysis, and am attempting to create a graph of my clusters. I keep on getting an error that says that my figure margins are too large. d <- file.choose() d <- read.csv(d,header=TRUE) mydataS <- scale(d, center = TRUE, scale=TRUE) #Converts mydataS from a matrix to a data frame mydataS2 <- as.data.frame(mydataS) #removes "coden"

Dear All, I am new to R, I have one question which might be easy. I have a large data with more than 250 variable, i am reducing number of variables by redun function as in the example below, n <- 100 x1 <- runif(n) x2 <- runif(n) x3 <- x1 + x2 + runif(n)/10 x4 <- x1 + x2 + x3 + runif(n)/10 x5 <- factor(sample(c('a','b','c'),n,replace=TRUE)) x6 <-

Hi All, I have a scatter plot produced using ggplot2 and I want to add the regression line to this scatter plot. I suppose I can use geom_smooth() to do this, but for the sake of learning ( I am new both to R and ggplot2), I want to try and add it as a function (something that curve() does in the standard R plotting). I did some search and found that stat_function() can be used for this. But

Hi R-Help, data at bottom I've been struggling with a problem where I need to order based on 1) the Frequency "Freq" and 2) keeping each group of 3 of the same type together "Var2" but I want across all groups it to go "high to low" based on the earn factor. Thank you! structure(list(Var1 = structure(c(1L, 3L, 2L, 1L, 2L, 3L, 1L, 3L, 2L, 3L, 1L, 2L, 3L, 1L,

Dear R listers, I am learning the MLE utility optim() in R to program ordered logit models just as an exercise. See below I have three independent variables, x1, x2, and x3. Y is coded as ordinal from 1 to 4. Y is not yet a factor variable here. The ordered logit model satisfies the parallel regression assumption. The following codes can run through, but results were totally different from what I

Dear all, dear Prof. Bates, my dependent variable (school absenteeism, truancy[1]) is a binary response for which I am trying to compute an unconditional mixed effects model. I've got observations (monday, wednesday and friday) nested in individuals (ID2), which were nested in classes (KID2) and schools (SID), i.e. a 4-level mixed effects model. In short, I was trying without success. I

Hi, I managed to use the attached data set and figure out the following: flies <- read.table("example12_1.dat",header=TRUE,sep="\t") boxplot(long ~ group, data = flies, horizontal = TRUE, col = "red") I'm very new to R and would like some help with the following: 1. Change the order on the y-axis from 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 to 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

Hello R users and developers, I have a general question about reshaping a wide data frame using the "reshape" command. I have a data frame consisting of 108 columns that I would like to convert to a long table and remove the metadata (embedded in the column names of the wide table) to new metadata columns in the long format. #example data frame. NOTE column names contain metadata::

Dear R users, A have a dataframe (matrix) with two collumns (plot, and diameter (d)). I want all diameters values for different combination of plots. For example I want all d values for all posible combination, 100C2 (all d values for plot 1 with all d values in the plot 2.......with all d values from plot 1 with all d values from plot 100, ...... with all d values from plot 99 with all d values

Hi, I'm trying to understand some details about an example maintened in [1]. According that link, I have total.data as a data set (am I right?). But I don't understand how is built that table. I saved the dataset in a file, with dput(), and had something like this: structure(list(df.all = structure(list(V1 = structure(c(1L, 2L, 3L, 4L, 5L, 6L, 7L, 8L, 9L, 10L, 11L, 12L, 13L, 14L, 15L,

I tried cast and melt in reshape package, but still can't convert this data frame m m [,1] [,2] [1,] "A" "1" [2,] "A" "2" [3,] "B" "3" to this form. m1 [,1] [,2] [1,] "A" "B" [2,] "1" "3" [3,] "2" NA Please help. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
