Hi - a tiny bug report: the list of mirror sites given at www.r-project.org/ mentions http://cran.mirror.aarnet.edu.au/ This domain does not exist (well, from Western Australia netscape says the domain doesn't exist) but I found the mirror at http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/CRAN/ regards Adrian Baddeley -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Hi, I just had a very quick look at the StatDataML proposal --- nice work! At the risk of showing my ignorance, I want to mention my first impressions. My first impression is that defining datasets in terms of arrays and list is a bit too high a level. What about simpler vectors, scalars? (I know that R/S don't have scalars, but other systems/applications do.) Can we think of a core

Hello! Those of you, who use Sweave a lot, will probably find my shell script usable. You can get it at: http://www.bfro.uni-lj.si/MR/ggorjan/programs/shell/Sweave.sh No warranty, however don't hesitate to contact me if you find an error or have a patch! -- Lep pozdrav / With regards, Gregor GORJANC --------------------------------------------------------------- University of

Dear all, I'm writing a lgrind definition for R. Lgrind is a program to produce pretty program listings for inclusion in LaTeX documents. Does anybody here have any experience with lgrindefs?

In the 'RWeaveLatexSetup' function in the 'tools' package in R 1.6.0 , the code below does not work (pdflatex can't find 'Sweave.sty'): if (stylepath) styfile <- file.path(R.home(), "share", "texmf", "Sweave") else styfile <- "Sweave" In R 1.5.1, that was: if(stylepath) styfile <-

Hi! I have R 1.9.1, Mac OS X 10.3.5, GNU Emacs 21.2.1 and ESS 5.2.3. I installed today the ESS by not changing ess-site.el, but creating .emacs in $home with the single line: $ cat ~/.emacs (load "/usr/local/lib/ess-5.2.3/lisp/ess-site") If I start now emacs and then R (with M-x R) then I get: > options(STERM='iESS', editor='emacsclient') but using fix() oder

Dear all, Some functions like 'ROC(Epi)' can be used to perform ROC analyssi, but it needs us to specify the fitting model in the argument. Now i have got the predicted p-values (0,1) for the 0/1 response variable using some other approach, see the following example dataset: id mark predict.pvalue 1 1 0.927 2 0 0.928 3 1 0.928 ..................

I have a binary file(a) with size of (360 720 )for the globe.I wrote the code given below to read and extract an area (south america)from that file. when I use summary for the whole file I got: summary(a, na.rm=FALSE) Min. 1st Qu. Median Mean 3rd Qu. Max. NA's 0.00 1.00 3.00 4.15 7.00 20.00 200083 . But when I used summary for the region(b) which I extracted, I got

Hi, I have been brought back to the "R-Side" from MatLab. I have used R in graduate econometrics but only for statistics and regression (linear and nonlinear). But now I need to run general nonlinear optimization. I know about the add-in quadprog but my problem is not QP. My problem is a general nonlinear (obj funct) with linear constraints.I know about the "ms" and

Dears friends, I have been translating and extended, with educational porposes only, the available material in the www (http://zoonek2.free.fr/UNIX/48_R/all.html) "Statistcs avec R" for the Portuguese of Brazil. I consider the material very good and would like to share this work with anothers users R. Already I translated and I extended two chapters: Introduction to the R and analysis

I have been using R for a few months to plot my data, and fit statistical models and so on. It is stated that R is not only a package for statistcs and graphics but also a programming language. Currently I am working with Fortran 90 to do numerical simulations (1D reactive -transport), and subsequently visualize it in some external software (spreadsheet). As I now started using R I will plot my

Hi all, I skimmed through the archives and couldnt really find an answer to my question. One thing i dont understand of the description of the function boot() is the second variable for statistics. I have a sample of say 19 subjects out of these, using boot(), i would like to generate say 1000 samples. For these 1000 samples ill calculate an nlme() and ill use these 1000 estimators of a variable

Hello, I would like to fill the rows of a Latex tabular environment with output from R, as in \begin{table} \caption{Table caption.} \label{tab:events} \begin{tabular}{c r r r r r} \hline <<echo=false,results=tex>>= fill.my.table.rows() @ \end{tabular} \end{table} Sweave produces the output inside \begin{Schunk} and \end{Schunk} commands, which latex doesn't

I've put all ``current'' add-on packages into CRAN's source/contrib tree and created an INDEX file (attached below). As you can see, currently we have acepack bootstrap ctest date e1071 fracdiff gee jpn snns splines survival4 (Yes, e1071 and jpn are new ... more on the latter in a later mail.) In the near future, I am hoping for the following: oz (Bill

Dear all, I just know how to solve an eaquation by using optim() or nlm(). But, now, I have three nonlinear equations, how could we use optim() or nlm() to solve  a system of nonlinear equations in R?  Thank you so much.

Dear All I am dealing at the moment with optimization problems with nonlinear constraints. Regenoud is quite apt to solve that kind of problems, but the precision of the optimal values for the parameters is sometimes far from what I need. Optim seems to be more precise, but it can only accept box-constrained optimization problems. I read in the list archives that optim can also be used with

Dear R-Help, I am trying to use R to solve a nonlinear equation many times for different values. I am looking for a mathematical nonlinear equation solution which may not have a closed solution form. For example, I have equation: 2 = (t^2)/log(t) What is t? I am wondering how to solve it in R. Many thanks, Zhu Wang Statistical Science Department SMU.

Dear all, Being an economics student, I am trying to put together a little tutorial/FAQ/... for those who have (more) background in econometrics rather than in statistics -- just as I have. I'v been looking for a hypothesis testing tool in R (just linear or also nonlinear) for model parameters, but could not find anything so far. I did find a similar but unanswered question in the archives,
