generating ordered, random decimal fractions
Greetings
How do I do this in R? Checking the Cran site produces a bewildering array
of packages that I can't seem to find to load. Surely the main program has
this function?
Cheers

Does anyone have any suggestions for reducing pdf file size,
particularly pdfs containing photos, without sacrificing quality? Thanks

substituting level for NA in factor column
Greetings
I have a bunch of NAs in a column of categorical variables designating
the size classes (e.g., smallest to largest: 1,2,3,4) of cave crickets.
I'd like to substitute "U" (for unknown) for the NAs. Can anyone give me
an idea how to do this? Thanks in advance.
Cheers

Confusing error statement
Greetings
Using the following command I've been trying to subset a dataframe of
counts of an organism to compute the sizes of groups for use as a
predictor:
Hs.patches <- as.data.frame(with(Hs.long,
table(Cave,Year,Month,Region,Plot,)))
I am getting the following error message that I do not understand:
ERROR: argument is missing, with no default
Can anyone shed light on this

Months in alphabetical order rather than chronological order in graph
Greetings
Though I have months in chronological order in my data table, the data
were sampled every other month (i.e., February, April, June, August,
October, December), every time I try to plot them (on the x-axis) they are
plotted in alphabetical order. What am I missing?

Singling out observations
Greetings
I am attempting to plot observations of a cave aquatic invertebrate
dating from 1901-2004. I can come up with a nice lattice plot of the eight
sites from which I have data easily enough. However, I'd like to be able
to highlight the 0 observations on the plots, i.e., attempts to find it at
the site were unsuccessful. I'd like to be able to highlight these
observations

remove numbers from string of characters
Greetings
I want to remove numbers from a string of characters that identify
sites so that I can merge two data frames. For example, a site in one
frame is called "001a Frozen Niagara Entrance" whereas the same site in
the other data frame is called "Frozen Niagara Entrance". It seems to me
the easiest thing to do would be to remove the numbers from the first data

R-help Digest, Vol 91, Issue 21
All
Is there a script in R equivalent to the "if then" transforms one can
perform in Systat? For example, I want to create a "Treatment" column
coded either 1 or 2 for twelve field sites in a large data set. Ideally,
I'd be able to tell R to code sites a-f as 1 and sites g-l as 2.
Cheers

Inserting Missing Data
Greetings
I'm attempting to insert missing data on the smallest size class of
cave cricket instars into a data frame. The data involve censusing
photoplots (plots) of roosting cave crickets in which we discern in four
instars or size classes. I need to insert data on size class one into a
data frame that already has data on size classes two through four. The
data can be merged by their

macintosh metadata madness
Like many other Mac OSX users, I have found it frustrating that rsync
is not as usable
as one would like it to be on OSX. I've posted some software on my
website
that I find useful, and that others may find useful as well. It
provides tools that allow
one to access and manipulate OSX metadata, and in particular, to
backup (and restore)
this metadata to a non-OSX, unix machine (using

Partial Naming Madness
Hi, I am having the following issue with a partial. During initial page
load, I am doing a "render_partial_collect ''foo'', @foos", and all goes
well. Each foo partial makes use of a variable inside called ''foo'' (and
can get foo.id etc).
After all the partials are loaded, I need to :update a div corresponding
to one of the partials (ie re-load the

date madness
I have a column called ''time_in'' and it is actually a timestamp so it
has a date and a time.
I created a method in my model called time_in_date which is simply
time_in.strftime("%m/%d/%Y")
I can''t do an sql find on a column that doesn''t exist so how do I find
for a specific date?

model mixin module madness
If I have several models which exhibit the same functionality, it seems
makes sense to create a mixin, ''include'' it in each model and save
myself some work and repeated code.
Where can I define a module which will be available to all models? I
can''t seem to find a documented place for them.
Alternatively, is there a Rails-standard way of achieving the effect?

Unicode madness
It seems like unicode is poorly or improperly tested with wxWidgets.
The documentation is wrong in several places and I have yet to get a
build that works with unicode. The include file that is supposed to be
included when you #define _UNICODE on windows does not even define
wxUSE_UNICODE. I''ll try to tackle this more later but we''ll have to
wait and see what happens.

Friday Aug 21st @ 12 noon EDT: VoIP Users Conference, More Wideband Madness
Tomorrow, Friday August 21st at noon EDT, we'll be on the rampage
again with the VoIP Users Conference, much of which concerns Asterisk
and the Asterisk community. We've covered a lot of ground in the past
2 1/2 years, and had a lot of great guest presenters.
In the meantime, there's a new gadget to test at PhoneFromHere.com,
you can hear the wideband demo on the ZipDX.com bridge:
