Hello, I have two data frames. One is my dependent variable and the other is my independent variable. For each row I'd like to split the independent variable into fractiles (25 or more) and calculate the average value of the dependent variable. Then I would like to plot the average of the averages for each row for each fractile. If possible, I'd like to have the option to 1) define the

I just started to play one of those RPG and to get my feet wet I''m writing an app to keep track of item fusions.

Hello All, Eric Langley here with my first post to this list. I am looking to determine if R is suitable for a development project I am working on and if so possibly finding someone proficient in R that would be interested in doing the coding.

In my daily development, I migrate back and forth between versions, and often do: rake load_fixtures... ... in order to populate my development database with fun data.

Within an actual functional or unit test case, you could simply load them in the proper order, but

If I wanted to take text, that had been written using the more common double carriage returns, into an array of

Below is a replicable example. # define functions pcm <- function(theta,d,score){ exp(rowSums(outer(theta,d[1:score],'-')))/ apply(exp(apply(outer(theta,d, '-'), 1, cumsum)), 2, sum) } foo <- function(theta,items, score){ like.mat <-
