Dear r-help list members, I thought that many of you might be interested in the following announcement from the data archive of the Inter-University Consortium for Political and Social Research (a world-wide organization of nearly 800 universities and other institutions headquartered at the University of Michigan): -------------- snip ----------- ICPSR releases new datasets in R format ICPSR

Hi all, I've reviewed the mailing list archives and it looks like the "centos.org" AMIs in the marketplace are really official products of the centos project (whatever that means), but I wanted to ask explicitly to confirm. Presuming yes, I've run into an odd problem with the 6.4 x86_64 AMI (not updated). with a few packages, files are not being properly created in

Hi, I have a SPSS datafile which is used for my textbook in the statistics (and which is available on http://abacon.com/fox/s6720p2.sav, but it is originally from ICPSR). When I opened it with SPSS 10 and run Frequencies on it I have got 979 valid data a 27 missing. However, see below (unfortunately, I have used R in preparation of my homework, which caused me an error on this): >

Hi, There are two unanswered reports of this error (below) in read.spss() when used with a .por file. I had the same problem and in order to successfully read the file into R I downloaded spss, saved the data as .dat tab-delimited, and then used read.table(). The point is that spss successfully read the same .por data file (the Polity II data freely available from ICPSR) that R couldn't

This is a very fascinating discussion topic. I find I run into some fundamental differences in interpretation of the phrase "statistical computing". I think of it as writing programs or functions, such as R or packages in R, and of understanding the numerical analysis behind these functions. I exclude USING computer programs, such as R, for data analysis from my definition of

Hi, We're encountering a rather weird, sporadic hang during a large-file transfer. A bit of background on the setup: - Host A rsyncs a MySQL database from Host B. Both sides use rsync 3.1.1 on Debian Jessie. - Host B serves the files using rsync --daemon from an ext4 filesystem residing on a thin LVM snapshot. - Host A uses the following command to rsync the files to a btrfs

I got this mail from a cronjob and can't figure out what is causing rsync to crap out on me. I received the message at 5:03, when the cron job is scheduled to run at 4:00, so total runtime is approximately an hour. Machine that is fetching the files is a low-end G3 running Yellowdog 3.01, rsync --version 2.5.5. It has only 128 megs of ram, but isn't doing anything else. Transfers are
