R-devel, I'm in the process of choosing a name for a new package. I've already decided that the name will have two parts, 'portfolio' and 'sim', but can't decide between 'portfolioSim' and 'portfolio.sim'. Is there any good reason to choose one over the other? Thanks in advance, Jeff -- Jeff Enos Kane Capital Management jeff at kanecap.com

R-devel, Below is a simple example calling split and unsplit on a numeric vector of length 2 where 'f' is c(1,NA). > unsplit(split(c(1,2), c(1,NA)), c(1,NA)) [1] 1 0 I noticed that the call to vector in unsplit gives us 0 as the 2nd element of the result. Is this the intended result, as opposed to NA? Thanks for your help, Jeff -- Jeff Enos Kane Capital Management jeff at

On the topic of when to use "suggests" and "depends" and on R version requirements. I have cc'd this message to R-devel because I am curious about what senior developpers think about these issues. The problem arises because we are using some functions from the package "matchit" in a new version of our package "portfolio". We are listing the matchit in

Hi Folks, According to the PDF file blogit.pdf in the Zelig documentation: "Use the bivariate logistic regression model ["blogit"] if you have two binary dependent variables (Y1,Y2), and and wish to model them jointly as a function of some explanatory variables. Each pair of dependent variables (Yi1,Yi2) has four potential outcomes, (Yi1=1,Yi2=1), (Yi1=1,Yi2=0),

I am fairly new at using R/programming in general so I apologize if I am leaving crucial parts of the puzzle out, but here goes. First and foremost this is the error I am receiving: Error in muPriors[priors[, 1:2]] <- priors[, 3] : NAs are not allowed in subscripted assignments This occurs only when I am using observational priors and some number of nominal variables, it does not

We would like to announce the availability of the 'portfolio' package in R for analysing equity portfolios. Version 0.2-0 is now available on CRAN.

Hi there, Does anyone know how to extract data from a function that prints out two or more summaries? In the function below (the whole code is provided) we get 5 different tables of data. I would like to split each of these tables in a separate file (while the function itself shouldn't be changed), so that further analysis on each data set could be carried out. Your help is deeply

Dear R users, I am trying to estimate to estimate the average treatmen effect on the treated (ATT) using first the MatchIt software to weight the data set and, after this, the Zelig software as shown in Ho et al. (2007). See here for an explanation of how to apply this technique in R: http://imai.princeton.edu/research/files/matchit.pdf I encounter a slight problem when I apply the weights that

This may be a really obvious question but I just can't figure out how to do it. I have a small dataset that I am trying to compare to some controls. It is essential that the controls are matched on Cancer Stage (a numerical factor between 1 and 4), and then ideally on Age (integer), Gender (factor), Performance Status(factor). I'm using matchit to try and do this, but it seems to give

Greetings fellow humans, I am attempting to export a text file after using the MatchIt package to match control with treatment subjects. I attempted to write.table and used the following syntax: "write.table(social,"shaka.txt",sep=" ",quote=FALSE,row.names=FALSE,col.names= FALSE)" But received the following error message: "Error in

UseRs, I tried to install the MatchIt package on Ubuntu 7.04. When loading required dependencies I got the following error message: Error in dyn.load(x, as.logical(local), as.logical(now)) : unable to load shared library '/usr/local/lib/R/site-library/optmatch/libs/optmatch.so': /usr/local/lib/R/site-library/optmatch/libs/optmatch.so: cannot map zero-fill pages: Cannot

Dear all, Does anybody know why the following code returns an error message? >library(MatchIt) >library(Zelig) >data(lalonde) > >m.out1<-matchit(treat~age+educ+black+hispan+nodegree+married +re74+re75, method="full", data=lalonde) > >z.out1<-zelig(re78~age+educ+black+hispan+nodegree+married+re74+re75, data=match.data(m.out1, "control"),

OK, my journey to make lab machines automagically install & update all desirable R packages is nearing an end! The only question I have now is this: How can I control where the system prints the *.Rout file that is created automatically when the R batch program runs. In "man R" I don't find any information about it. When the cron job runs "R_installAll.sh" (see

Hi there dear R users! Anyone knows why does matchit function returns error whenever the "hull" option is used (either "hull.both", "hull.control" or "hull.treat"). Things work well with all the rest of discard options. This is the error msg. >m.out.base <- matchit(formula=f, data=d, method=m, discard="hull.control") [1]
