Dear all I know that the R way of documenting things is to work on your project in package development mode, and document each object (such as data frames) in a *.Rd files. This should work for gurus. What about a simpler way to document things, geared for mere mortals? I was thinking of a label() or tag() function that could store and retrieve an alphanumeric comment for a given object (for

Greetings R experts, I'm having some difficulty recovering lda objects that I've saved within sublists using the save.image() function. I am running a script that exports a variety of different information as a list, included within that list is an lda object. I then take that list and create a list of that with all the different replications I've run. Unfortunately I've been

Hi there: I have a question about generating mean value of a data.frame. Take iris data for example, if I have a data.frame looking like the following: --------------------- Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width Species 1 5.1 3.5 1.4 0.2 setosa 2 4.9 3.0 1.4 0.2

Thanks Duncan. I can't tell you how helpful all your terrific replies have been. I think the biggest surprise is that nobody appears to be using Java and R together like I"m trying to do. I suppose it should be a surprise since there are no books on the subject and almost no technical documentation other than a few sites here and there. ----- I originally had the "int" as the

I would like to create a tree model with at most one split point per variable using tree, rpart or other routine. Its OK if a variable enters at more than one node but if it does then all splits for that variable should be at the same point. The idea is that I want to be able to summarize the data as binary factors with the chosen split points. I don't want to have three level or more

Hey Duncan, Hard to debug? That's an understatement. Eyes bleeding.... In any case, I tried all your suggestions. To get "integer" for the final column, I had to change the code to get integers instead of strings. double[] d1 = ((REXPVector) ((RList) tableRead).get(0)).asDoubles(); double[] d2 = ((REXPVector) ((RList) tableRead).get(1)).asDoubles(); double[] d3 = ((REXPVector)

Hi, I read almost all I found in prior R-Help list about How to compare two regression line slopes. So, I made a didactic example to illustrate a solution cited by Ben Bolker: =============================================== Subject: Re: [R] How to compare two regression line slopes From: Ben Bolker (bol... at ufl.edu) Date: Jan 27, 2009 1:52:20 pm List: org.r-project.r-help

Hi, I was wondering if it is possible to get the rowindices without using the function "which" because I don't have a restriction criteria. Here's an example of what I mean: # take 10 randomly selected instances iris[sample(1:nrow(iris), 10),] # output Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width Species 76 6.6 3.0 4.4 1.4

Dear all What is the easy way to drop a variable by using its name (and not its number)? Example: > data(iris) > head(iris) Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width Species 1 5.1 3.5 1.4 0.2 setosa 2 4.9 3.0 1.4 0.2 setosa 3 4.7 3.2 1.3 0.2 setosa 4 4.6 3.1

Hi, [I sent this to the plyr mailing list (late) last night, but it seems to be lost in the moderation queue, so here's a shot to the broadeR community] Apologies in advance for being more verbose than necessary, but I'm not even sure how to ask this question in the context of plyr, so ... here goes. As meaningless as this might be to do with the `iris` data, the spirit of it is what

Hopefully I will not be flamed for this on the list, but I am starting out with R and having some trouble with combining plots. I am playing with the famous iris dataset (checking out example dataset in R while reading through Introduction to datamining) What I would like to do is create three graphs (combined boxplots) besides each other for each of the three species (Setosa, Versicolour and

Dear all Suppose the object below: > require(Hmisc) > require(plyr) > x <- dlply(iris, .(Species), describe) How can I print the object without displaying the attributes? I inspected ?print and ?print.default with no luck. > x $setosa x[, "Sepal.Length"] n missing unique Mean .05 .10 .25 .50 .75 50 0 15 5.006 4.40 4.59

Dear all I have a simple problem which I thought is easy to solve but what I tried did not work. I want to change character variables to factor in data frame. It goes easily from factor to character, but I am stuck in how to do backwards conversion. Here is an example irisf<-iris irisf[,2]<-factor(irisf[,2]) # create second factor str(irisf) 'data.frame': 150 obs. of 5

Thanks Duncan. Awesome ideas! I think we're getting closer! I tried what you suggested and got a possibly better error... . . . rConnection.assign("boxMVariable", myDf); String resultBV = "str(boxMVariable)"; // your suggestion. RESULTING ERROR: Error in format.default(nam.ob, width = max(ncn), justify = "left") : invalid 'width' argument (No idea

Dear all, How can I obtain the union of a list of logical values? Consider the following: x <- head(iris) x[,c(2,4)] <- NA x[c(2,4),] <- NA # > x # Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width Species # 1 5.1 NA 1.4 NA setosa # 2 NA NA NA NA <NA> # 3 4.7 NA 1.3

Dear all The trouble with the current duplicated() function in is that it can report duplicates while searching fromFirst _or_ fromLast, but not both ways. Often users will want to identify and extract all the copies of the item that has duplicates, not only the duplicates themselves. To take the example from the man page: > data(iris) > iris[duplicated(iris), ] ##duplicates while

Hi, I have two questions regarding the cloud function in the lattice package: 1) Is there a way to not print the surrounding frame (i.e. the square surrounding the entire plot)? 2) Is there a way to italicize the text displayed with the key argument? Some sample code: data(iris) cloud(Sepal.Length~Petal.Length*Petal.Width,data=iris, groups=Species,screen=list(z=20,x=-70),
