Deciles and R
Hi everyone, I'm a new R user (if this is a really basic question, please do excuse me...) and I'm having some questions regarding a deciles problem. I have a variable which I need to categorize according to its deciles (X). However, this categorization should be made into another variable (call it NewVar). Ex. for the quartiles case (just for the sake of exposition, since I need

Losing factor levels when moving variables from one context to another
Hi, there I'm currently trying to figure out how to keep my "factor" levels for a variable when moving it from one data frame or matrix to another. Example below: vec1<-(rep("10",5)) vec2<-(rep("30",5)) vec3<-(rep("80",5)) vecs<-c(vec1, vec2, vec3) resp<-rnorm(2,15) dat<-as.data.frame(cbind(resp, vecs))

Go from CALLINGout to just CALLING
Hello list, how can I go from CALLINGout to just CALLING ? I've tried : exten => s,n,Set(newVAR=${CUT(CALLINGout,,3)}) or exten => s,n,Set(newVAR=$[CUT(CALLINGout,,3)]) But no result : [Jan 4 11:10:12] -- Executing [s at from-S:34] NoOp("SIP/s2-0000003b", "newVAR=") in new stack Asterisk 1.6.10 here.

If statement - copying a factor variable to a new variable
I need to look through a dataset with two factor variables, and depending on certain criteria, create a new variable containing the data from one of those other variables. The problem is, R keeps making my new variable an integer and saving the data as a 1 or 2 (I believe the levels of the factor). I've tried using as.factor in the IF output statement, but that doesn't seem to work. Any

AGI solution to Grandstream BT102 call waiting problem
I'm trying to fix a problem with the GrandStream Budgetone 102. I've been reading the source code, mailing lists and other resources. Here's the scenario and the approach I have been pursuing. I'm having some problems with the AGI calls and I hope someone can give me some clarification. PSTN <---> T1,PRI * <---> Grandstream BT 102 (12)

Joining variables
Hello, If I have two variables that are factors or characters and I want to create a new variable that is the combination of both what function can I use to accomplish this? Ex. Var1 Var2 SA100055113 19851113 And I want NewVar SA10005511319851113 Thanks in advance. Cameron Guenther, Ph.D. Associate Research Scientist FWC/FWRI, Marine Fisheries Research 100 8th Avenue S.E.

Large 3d array manipulation
I have a large 3 dimensional array of size (243,246,768) The first dimension is Rows, second is columns and the third is Time. So for each row and column, I want to calculate the mean of time steps 1:8, 2:9, 3:10 and so on and assign the values to a new array. For this I am using the following script. for(i in 1:243) { for(j in 1:246) { for(k in 1:768) { newVar[i,j,k] <- mean(

R not finding function in installed pscl package
Hi, This may be such a general question that my searches are just failing. I installed the pscl lib, all appears fine, installed it several different ways to be sure, but I am getting: Error: could not find function "zeroinfl" I double checked my spelling of the function and that it had not been evolved out of the package. It is in the same location as the other libraries that are

equivalent of group command of the egen function in Stata
Dear R listers, I am trying to create a new variable that uniquely identifies groups of observations in a dataset. So far I couldn't figure out how to do this in R. In Stata I would simply type: egen newvar = group(dim1, dim2, dim3) Please, find below a quick example to show what I am dealing with: I have a dataset with 4 variables: var <- runif(50) ## a variable that I want to group

extracting Pr>ltl from robcov/ols (Design)
I am trying to extract significance levels out of a robcov+ols call. For background: I am analysing data where multiple measurements(2 per topic) were taken from individuals(36) on their emotional reaction (dependent variable) to various topics (3 topics). Because I have several emotions and a rotation to do on the topics, I'd like to have the results pumped into a nice table.

"by" question
Hello all I have a big data frame and I regularly want to break it down into subsets, calculate some new data, and add it back to the data frame. At the moment my technique seems a bit ugly and embarrassing. Something like: result <- by(mydata, mydata$some_factor, function (x) { # do something to create a vector v with length(v) == nrow(x) return(v) }) # now result has a big list, argh...

Removing default loess line from scatterplot ({car})
scatterplot() is autogenerating a regression and loess line. I want to remove the loess line, but can only find samples for how to add it. I definitely do not have code that adds it (see below), so I am puzzling... scatterplot(Aroused ~ anxious | group, data=data, xlab="Aroused", ylab="Anxious", main="Arousal and anxiety ratings", xlim=c(0.5, 9.5),

Example of cell means model
This is an example from chapter 11 of the 6th edition of Devore's engineering statistics text. It happens to be a balanced data set in two factors but the calculations will also work for unbalanced data. I create a factor called 'cell' from the text representation of the Variety level and the Density level using '/' as the separator character. The coefficients for the linear

global object in user defined function
I need an object created in a user defined function to be accessible to another user defined function. I am fairly certain the object is correctly created as it prints when I use the return() function, however the 2nd function seems unable to use it. I am guessing objects created in functions are not globally accessible, is this correct? What is an appropriate way to pass the object to the

Konqueror compatibility
Thomas, currently the script.aculo.us scripts have some workarounds for Safari that should be extended to more generally cover all khtml-based browsers, Konqueror in particular. In prototype.js, there is a workaround for an addEventListener bug that affects Konqueror as well as Safari, controls.js has a similar workaround, and the special case in dragdrop.js doesn''t hurt anyway.

MANOVA with repeated measures in R
Dear list member, I deperately need an help in performing a MANOVA in R, but I encountered some problems both in the design and in the synthax with R. I conducted a listening experiment in which 16 participants had to rate the audio stimuli along 5 scales representing an emotion (sad, tender, neutral, happy and aggressive). Each audio stimulus was synthesized in order to represent a

X matrix deemed to be singular in counting process coxph
Dear all, I have a question with respect to counting process formulation of the coxph(survival) model. I have two groups of observations for which I have partitioned each observation into two distinct time intervals, namely, entry day till day 13, and day 13 till death or censorship day (of course the latter only for the observations that survived the first 13 day interval), and added a

Help with NaN when 0 divided by 0
Hi All, I have some data where I am doing fairly simple calculations, nothing more than adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing. I’m running into a problem when I divide one variable by another and when they’re both 0 I get NaN. I realize that if you divide a non-zero by 0 then you get Inf, which is, of course, correct. But in my case I never get Inf, just NaN because of the structure
