similar to: Putting demo shell scripts, text files, and RScript files with a package?

I maintain the Devore5 package which contains the data sets from the 5th edition of Jay Devore's text "Probability and Statistics for Engineering and the Sciences". The 6th edition has now been published and it includes several new data sets in exercises and examples. In addition, some exercises and examples from the 5th edition are renumbered in the 6th edition. I face the

Hello! In the book Modern Applied Statistics with S (4th ed), section 5.6 the concept of the "average shifted histogram" or ASH is mentionend. Also it is mentioned in the same section "The code used is in the scripts for this chapter" (from figure caption 5.8, analysis of the geyser duration data). *However*, I have trouble finding the code for that function! Admittedly, I am a

Hello, I'm trying to use libvirt as a non-root user to obtain statistics on the CPU usage by VMs using the Python API. I'm performing basically the following steps: import libvirt conn = libvirt.openReadOnly(None) dom = conn.lookupByUUIDString('268e38ea-1bc7-41e4-c19e-8eff682e58e4') dom.getCPUStats(True, 0) However, they result in the following error: libvir: QEMU Driver

> Packages without explicit ?NAMESPACE? files will have a default one created at build or INSTALL time, > so all packages will have namespaces. A consequence of this is that ?.First.lib? functions need to be > renamed, usually as ?.onLoad? but sometimes as ?.onAttach?. Couldn't R simply regard .First.lib as the appropriate function to save many packages from being needlessly changed?

Hi, every body! I am a new comer for R, so my question would unavoidablely sounds stupid. Sorry! In my experiment, there are two type of soil ( soil F and soil D), each half of them were subjected to steam sterilize (result in FS and DS soil). A equal volume of soil from two of the four soil types (F, D, FS, DS) were mixed as follows: F+F, F+D, F+FS, F+DS, D+F, D+FS, D+DS, FS+DS (eight

Hello. My name is Ana. I?m doing an eology master, and I?m just learning how R works. I have a Mac OS X 10.5.6, and I?m tryng to run just a simple ANOVA nanalyses. I dowloaded R version 2.10.0, and it seems I have problems with the script. I don?t know what to do, I?ve already change the languages, be sure of being working in the correct directory and doesn?t work the script is: #1. example

Hi, I'm trying to fit a model using variance components in R, but if very new on it, so I'm asking for your help. I have imported the SPSS database onto R, but I don't know how to convert the commands... the SPSS commands I'm trying to convert are: VARCOMP RATING BY CHAIN SECTOR RESP ASPECT ITEM /RANDOM = CHAIN SECTOR RESP ASPECT ITEM /METHOD = MINQUE (1) /DESIGN

hi all, i posted a question before about this, but i may have been too cryptic to understand. in short, there exists an R package that someone is writing. this package depends on a custom library (written in C,), compiled as a shared, and called by the package's functions via the .Call(...) method. we are testing out different code implementations of the compiled library functions, and thus

Hi everyone, I have a licencing question : do one need to buy CAL for every user in a Samba4 domain when there is a Windows Server as a domain member, knowing that the Windows server will be accessed using SMB by Windows workstations? As per http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/using_samba/ch01.html and many other web sites, one of the main advantage of samba is that no user CALs are required. And I

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Still having that problem with samba seemingly corrupting files, it seems to be the same files that are corrupted again and again, yet they are corrupted differently and sometimes not. I ran my md5 summer against one file ch02.pdf, and it almost contineously corrupts, I checked in a hex editor and there are some differences. Yet the problem is that

I like what smooth.spline does but I am unclear on the output. I can see from the documentation that there are fit.coef but I am unclear what those coeficients are applied to.With spline I understand the "noraml" coefficients applied to a cubic polynomial. But these coefficients I am not sure how to interpret. If I had a description of the algorithm maybe I could figure it out but as it

Dear All I would like to draw a picture with the density curve of a normal distribution over a histogram of a set of random numbers extracted from the same normal distribution. Is that possible? Thanks in advance, Paul

Dear List, I am new to TS-Modeling in R. I would like to fit an ARMA(1,1) model for a balanced panel, running Y on a full set of unit and year dummies using an arma(1,1) for the disturbance: y_it=unit.dummies+yeardummies+e_it where: e_it=d*e_it-1+u_it+q*u_it-1 How can I fit this model in R? arma() does not seem to take covariates (or I don't understand how to specify the function so that

Dear R People: Sorry for the off-topic. Could someone recommend a good reference for using the EM algorithm on mixed models, please? I've been looking and there are so many of them. Perhaps someone here can narrow things down a bit. Thanks in advance, Sincerely, Erin -- Erin Hodgess Associate Professor Department of Computer and Mathematical Sciences University of Houston - Downtown

someone have been installed Asterisk (Trixbox) on VirtualBox which is installed on a Linux host (Ubuntu server 10.04 specifically).

I tried to use LME (on a fairly large dataset, so I am not including it), and I got this error message: Error in lme.formula(formula(paste(c(toString(TargetName), "as.factor(nodeInd)"), : nlminb problem, convergence error code = 1 message = false convergence (8) Is there any way to get more information or to get the potentially wrong estimates from LME?

I have 2 questions on ANOVA with 1 between subjects factor and 2 within factors. 1. I am confused on how to do the analysis with aov because I have seen two examples on the web with different solutions. a) Jon Baron (http://www.psych.upenn.edu/~baron/rpsych/rpsych.html) does 6.8.5 Example 5: Stevens pp. 468 - 474 (one between, two within) between: gp within: drug, dose aov(effect ~ gp * drug *

Hello. As advised by Mick Crawley in his book on S+, I'm trying to use the lme function to examine a linear relationship between two variables measured at 60 locations in 12 sites, while taking account of any spatial autocorrelation (i.e. similarity in variation between the two variables that is due to site). I am using the function as follows:

Hello, I have an irregular time series of the form : Time Data Time1 Data1 .... 1 b 1 e 7 g 4 i NA NA 5 k NA NA NA NA ... (the columns have varying length of NAs after a certain point) Converting this to regular time series with Pastecs does not seem to work, when I see the entire data as a single series. So I remove

Thanks a lot for the quick answerd I received and that helped me to solve my first (simple) problem with the plm package. Unfortunatley, here's another one: I do not know why, but I'm unable to estimate a simple model in the form y ~ 1 + x When I try > zz <- plm(y ~ 1 + x , data=mydata) I obtain Errore in X.m[, coef.within, drop = F] : numero di dimensioni errato which means
