Again I would like to express my deepest appreciation to all those working so selflessly on the development of R for us all to use it freely (and it is such a joy to use!) Rashid Nassar == Possible bug: 1. boxplot() This is an old behavior that I had reported before, but as it is still there, it may not ba a bug (although it looks like one to me). "qfcut" is numeric, "st"

Dear R Team, A few monor typos in help pages that I noticed. Thank you very much. Rashid Nassar 1. help(gl) Examples: # First control, then treatment: gl(2,8, label=c("Ctnrl","Treat")) ^^^^ I assume "Cntrl" is meant. ========================================== 2. help(pmatch) Details: The behaviour

Dear R team, I had a strange problem that appeared suddenly, and which I'd like to to mention in case it is of interest (although I suspect that I may have unwittingly done something dumb: if so please accept my apology) > library(ctest) ## or any package other than "oz" that I tried Error in as.character(table) : Object ".Dyn.libs" not found > traceback() [1]

yes I have tries, and nothing. It just shows the strings with the slashn, just like i typed it. -----Original Message----- From: Rashid Nassar [mailto:rnassar at duke.edu] Sent: ÐÝì?ôç, 16 Óå?ôåìâñßïõ 2004 15:44 To: Christos Rodopoulos Subject: Re: [R] How do I insert a newline in my title in a plot?

Thanks for your reply Nassar. What I really want is to overlay (like add=TRUE) the plots 1 and 2. With plots "at the same screen" I meant overlaid and not one beside the other, i.e., only one plot with all the points (1 to 10) in blue (or any other color), the points 5 to 9 in red and a regression line from points 5 to 9.

plot(1:4,1:4,xlim=c(5,0),ylim=c(5,0)) shows axis labels as: | | | | | | 0 rather than | | | | | | 5 4 3 2 1 0 as I believe it used to do in some earlier version. Thank you for R. Rashid Nassar --please do not edit the information below-- Version: platform = i586-unknown-linux arch = i586

It may be my lack of unerstanding, but round() seems to me to give inconsistent results when rounding 5s as in the following examples? > round(1.45, 1) [1] 1.4 # OK > round(2.45, 1) [1] 2.5 # shouldn't this be 2.4? > round(1.05, 1) [1] 1.1 # 1.0 ? and signif(): > signif(2.445, 3) [1] 2.44 # OK > signif(3.445, 3) [1]

1. THANK YOU! to all who make R possible. It is a real joy to use. 2. The following may or may not be (minor) bugs, but I thought I'd mention them anyway: (a) model.matrix() seems unduly finicky: it seems to accept only "simple" variable names (x1, but not, say, dframe$x1 or I(x1^2), for example) in its argument. model.frame(), however, has no problem with these. (b) If A is a

Some observations as feedback on minor points that I came across while enjoying [R-0.62.2]: 1. par(bty="n"): sometimes (depending on data) points appear to "spill out" of the plot using default xlim and ylim values (are default axes a bit too short?) 2. points(x,y,pch="c") allows points to plot outside existing plot box (an interesting feature, but may be a bug?);

Dear Sirs, I had the following (reproducible) problem: g1 <- gl(3,4) g2 <- gl(2,2,12) y <- rnorm(12) AA <- aggregate(y,list(g1,g2),mean) print(AA,2) # I should've said 'digits=2' but ... Segmentation fault (core dumped) # print(AA) and print(AA,digits=2) work as expected Many thanks, -Rashid Nassar --please do not edit the information below--

dotplot() colors are plotted (probably unintentionally?) in reverse order. x <- c(rep(1,3),rep(2,3),rep(3,3)) dotplot(x,groups=factor(x),col=x) # 1 plotted with col=3, etc. Thank you very much.

R version: RW0632 1. gnlm package, nlr() error message: "Last global step failed to locate a point lower than x.

The following looks odd to me, but it may well be that I'm doing something I shouldn't: x <- c(rep("a",5),NA,rep("b",7)) X <- as.factor(x) length(X) # [1] 13 length(X[X=="a"]) # [1] 6 I expected 5 length(X[X=="b"]) # [1] 8 I expected 7 length(X[is.na(X)]) # [1] 1 yes length(X[X=="d"]) # [1]
