similar to: default for 'signif.stars'

Dear all, I agree with both Russ and Terry that the significance stars option should default to FALSE. Here's what Sandy Weisberg and I say about significance starts in the current edition of the R Companion to Applied Regression: 'If you find the ?statistical-significance? asterisks that R prints to the right of the p-values annoying, as we do, you can suppress them, as we will in the

Hi Martin, I take your point - but I'd argue that significance stars are a clumsy solution to the very real problem that you outline, and their inclusion as a default sends a signal about their appropriateness that I would prefer R not to endorse. My preference (to the extent that it matters) would be to see the significance stars be an option but not a default one, and the addition of

I read through the editorial. This is the one of the most mega-ultra-super-biased articles I've ever read. e.g. The authors encourage Baysian methods, and literally encourage subjective approaches. However, there's only one reference to robust methods and one reference to nonparametric methods, both of which are labelled as purely exploratory methods, which I regard as extremely

Dear R-Devel, As I am sure many of you know, a special issue of The American Statistician just came out, and its theme is the [mis]use of P values and the many common ways in which they are abused. The lead editorial in that issue mentions the 2014 ASA guidelines on P values, and goes one step further, by now recommending that the words "statistically significant" and related simplistic

OK. I give up. I'll ask a stupid question. How do I get the $!#@*$ signif stars line printed by summaries to not look extremely bizarre in the latex produced by Sweave? For example, see p. 7 of http://www.stat.umn.edu/geyer/aster/library/aster/doc/tutor.pdf I can see what the problem is. R emits non-ascii characters (as it is supposed to do), Sweave puts them in the tex file, and

Hello, So here is the compression scheme that I don't know if is covered by patent. I use it on the wavelet DC parts.It outputs 1 byte (8 bits) words.There is 5 modes: - 1(MSB) | 7 bits to store value (0->127 range) - 01 | 6 bits to store val[n+1]-val[n] | val[n]-val[n-1] if each in the range [-4,4] - 001 | 5 bits to store val[n+2]-val[n+1] | val[n+1]-val[n] | val[n]-val[n-1] if each in

Hello, Ok, and that's too many work to review a source code.In my codec, I have 3 compression schemes, I think 2 are not patented, but the third... I don't know.For the rest, I think my codec is patent-free (I don't use SPIHT,EZW,zerotree methods), even the wavelet transform is new and don't use the lifting scheme nor the convolution product. Else, if you found time to review the

printCoefmat(signif.legend =FALSE) does not work properly. The option "signif.legend = FALSE" is ignored as shown in the example below. cmat <- cbind(rnorm(3, 10), sqrt(rchisq(3, 12))) cmat <- cbind(cmat, cmat[,1]/cmat[,2]) cmat <- cbind(cmat, 2*pnorm(-cmat[,3])) colnames(cmat) <- c("Estimate", "Std.Err", "Z value", "Pr(>z)") #

My question is about the "Signif. codes" , the output when I run matcoef =cbind(fit$par, se.coef,tval,2*(1-pnorm(abs(tval)))) dimnames(matcoef)=list(names(tval),c("Estimate","Std.Error","t value","pr(>|t|)")) cat("\nCoefficient(s):\n") printCoefmat(matcoef, digits=4, signif.stars = TRUE) Coefficient(s): Estimate

Dear listers, The following command (derived from the example in the ?stars help page) works : data(mtcars) stars(mtcars[, 1:7]) But the following gives an error: stars(mtcars[1, 1:7]) Error in s.y[i, ] : incorrect number of dimensions I was expecting to have the star graph for the first line (Mazda Rx4) The following give an incorrect graph for the first two cars : stars(mtcars[1:2, 1:7])

Hi! I have a dataset with three columns -the first two refer to x and y coordinates, the last one are odds ratios. I'd like to plot the data with x and y coordinates and the odds ratio shown as a fourfold plot, which I prefer to do using the stars function. Unfortunately the stars option in symbols is not as cool as the stars function on its own, and now i can't figure out how to do it!

Hi I don't know if you can help. I am a 2nd year Bsc Cosmetic Science student and in R I need some help in drawing stars. The problem that I have is I want to recreate a radar diagram similar to the one in excel. I have put in these commands in a script window: stars(shampoo1[, 1:6], locations = c(0,0), radius = TRUE, key.loc=c(0,0), main = "Ranked Results for the Sensory

Dear Rdev, in R 2.9.0 the doc of function stars() does not state that it returns invisibly the location of atomic graphs. This is a valuable information as it may help to set a value for the key.loc parameter of this function. My whish is just that the "value" section in stars.Rd should be documented. Best, Pr. Jean R. Lobry BTW, the URL:,

Hi there Rers I am trying a very basic stars plot: x<-matrix(c(1,4,3,1.1,2,3,4,3,1,1,5,2), ncol = 3, byrow = TRUE, >> dimnames=list(c("a","b","c","d"),c("x","y","z"))) > > stars(x, draw.segments = TRUE, radius=TRUE) > > Can anyone explain what I am seeing there - EACH of my plots should have 3 coloured

R 1.4.0 ?stars has scale: logical flag: if `TRUE', the columns of the data matrix are scaled independently so that the maximum value in each column is 1 and the minimum is 0. If `FALSE', the presumption is that the data have been scaled by some other algorithm to the range [0,1]. but the code has if (scale) { x <- sweep(x, 2,

Hi, I''d like to input an integer into form by simply clicking stars (i.e. the click translates into integer 1-5). I don''t need a complex star rating system. Any suggestions?
