similar to: [R] problems with postscript device (PR#341)

Hi! The postscript device in 0.90 does not produce symbols (pch=) as it should. E.g.: postscript(file="test.ps",width=8,height=6.4,horizontal=FALSE) plot(1:10,1:10,pch=1:5) legend(1,9,letters[1:5],pch=1:5) dev.off() The result looks quite different compared to the X-windows version. The symbol 1 (pch=1) is much to small, while the other symbols seem to big. Is it a bug? How can I

Dear R-List, I have a dataframe X containing factor f and numeric variable x1, x2, ... I want to create a new dataframe (or possibly a matrix) that gives statistics (e.g. sum) for the variables x1, x2, ... in each group defined by factor f. What is the simplest way to do this? I tried: attach(X) Z <- data.frame(f=levels(f),x1=as.vector(lapply(split(x1,f),sum))) and stumbled on: Error

Hi! Since installation of R 0.90 there are problems with the size of text and numbers also in the x11-device (I reported about similar problems with the postscript device recently). For numbers and letters a different size is used: plot(1:10,1:10,type="n") text(2,8,"F5F5F5F5F5") text(2,7,"F5F5F5F5F5",cex=2) The same problem is also found in the postscript

Hello! When I know the vector of the variance of the disturbances (i.e. the structure of heteroskedasticity), say Var(u_{i})=v_{i}, what is the weights I should use as argument to lm(): M <- lm(y~x,weigths=1/v) or M <- lm(y~x,weights=1/(v^0.5)) ??? In the help pages I did not find a clear answer to this question, so please could someone help me! Thanks, Wolfgang Koller

Dear R-developpers, currently the function window shows the following behaviour, if start or end is out of range: > x <- ts(1:14,start=c(1950,2),frequency=4) > y <- window(x,start=c(1950,1),end=c(1953,4)) Warning messages: 1: start value not changed in: window.default(x, ...) 2: end value not changed in: window.default(x, ...) Instead of this I would like it to fill with NAs the

Dear list, I want to perform a biplot, using customized titels for the x and y axis. Setting xlab="" and ylab="" resulted in an error, e.g.: > data(USArrests) > biplot(princomp(USArrests),xlab="",ylab="") Error in biplot.default(t(t(scores[, choices])/lam), t(t(x$loadings[, : length of dimnames[1] not equal to array extent > How do I

Dear R-Users! My aim is to produce boxplots without the outliers included in the plot. I started to write a function that looks something like: myboxplot <-function(x,fa) { bpdata <- boxplot(x~fa,plot=FALSE) bpnames <- names(bpdata) for (JJ in bpnames) { command <- paste("bpdata$",JJ,"$out <- numeric(0)",sep=""); eval(command) }

Dear R-Users and Developpers, Currently R does not include functions to compute the skewness and kurtosis. I programmed it myself in the following way, but probably *real* programmers/statisticians can do that better: mykurtosis <- function(x) { m4 <- mean((x-mean(x))^4) kurt <- m4/(sd(x)^4)-3 kurt } myskewness <- function(x) { m3 <- mean((x-mean(x))^3) skew <-

Hi everyone I'm trying to generate a vector of the form a <- c(1,2,3,4,1,2,3,1,2,1) where n = 5 in a general way, where n can be any positive integer. I've run out of ideas. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks Karen Karen Kotschy Centre for Water in the Environment University of the Witwatersrand Johannesburg Tel: 011 716-2218

Dear all, first, I would like to thank R-core team for making so a great software available. Thank you all, really! Using R (1.0.0) on a Win98 platform, I need an x-server to run xgobi (through R xgobi interface). I've been using a MI/X server but trying to upgrade I noticed that MI/X is no longer available for free. Similarly, eXceed is available at evaluation version (for a limited time

Hi, I've searched in the wiki and in the mailinglist archives but haven't found anything about password character sets within the dovecot authentication deamon. My problem is that we have users with passwords containing scandinavian characters (???, umlauts) and the debug log shows that different clients send the password in different charsets. The passwords are stored in a Mysql

The Department of Statistics and Mathematics at the Vienna University of Economics and Business Administration invites applications for two new faculty positions in computational statistics and quantitative research methodology, to begin in fall 2005.
