The Hmisc and Design libraries have been updated respectively to versions 1.4-2 and 1.1-1. New versions for Linux/Unix/Windows may be obtained from http://hesweb1.med.virginia.edu/biostat/s/library/r . Web sites for the libraries are http://hesweb1.med.virginia.edu/biostat/s/Hmisc.html and http://hesweb1.med.virginia.edu/biostat/s/Design.html . Thanks to Xiao Gang Fan for porting the libraries

Great news! Having spent a significant amount of time porting/mantaining some packages on S4/Splus 5.x and R, I'm interested in your experience as you port Hmisc and Design; I'd like to know of your progress in order to help improve available R/Splus portability tools both at the C and the S language code. These tools include the package SLanguage written by John Chambers, and

Many of you are using Sweave for making statistical reports. I thought it might be helpful to some to see an example of the setup I use (in Linux). For those of you who have not yet discovered the power and productivity gains from using Fritz Leisch's wonderful package, I encourage you to give Sweave a try. %File: model.nw %Usage: % Put library(Hmisc;Design;tools} in .First % Sweave model

The Design library has been fully ported to R except for Cox proportional hazards regression modeling (using Therneau's survival package) which will be available in about two weeks. It will take much longer to make all the example code executable, is it currently contains many examples for which data are not provided. Thanks to Xiao Gang Fan <xiao.gang.fan1 at libertysurf.fr> who

The Hmisc and Design libraries have had major improvements. New versions for Linux/Unix/Windows may be obtained from http://hesweb1.med.virginia.edu/biostat/s/library/r Thanks to Xiao Gang Fan for porting the libraries to Windows once again. Change logs may be obtained from http://hesweb1.med.virginia.edu/biostat/s/library/common Several bugs have been fixed in Design, and many bugs have been

I am trying to replicate part of the function of the S-Plus terms.inner function. I don't need an entire model terms object but R expressions or character strings containing the innermost variable name given a vector of character strings or expressions. Here are some example inputs that each should result in the string or expression "x": x; x^2; g(x); h(g(x)); h(g(x^3));

New versions of the Hmisc and Design packages, including ones for Windows, may be found at http://hesweb1.med.virginia.edu/biostat/s/library/r Thanks as always to Xiao Gang Fan <xiao.gang.fan1 at libertysurf.fr> for providing the Windows ports. In Hmisc, new features for multiple imputation have been added to aregImpute and LaTeX and plot methods have been improved for summary.formula

I am using read.spss in the foreign package to read an SPSS save file. For date variables I get huge values such as 11489990400. Does anyone know how to convert these values to R POSIXct date objects? Thanks in advance -Frank platform i686-pc-linux-gnu arch i686 os linux-gnu system i686, linux-gnu status major 1 minor

I plan to use Sweave for most of the statistical reports I write for general statistical consulting projects. I would like to also have a way to collaborate with remote clients using a phone and a web server. This might involve a more incremental output process than Sweave uses. One could, for example, use a Wiki like that from twiki.org to upload pieces of an analysis as it proceeds, having

In S-Plus the ... argument for tapply is before simplify. In R (1.2.3) ... is after simplify, causing the user to have to specify simplify every time ... is used even though the default is usually OK. Unless there was a benefit to reordering the arguments, it might be a good idea to reconsider the current function definition. ... is probably used more than simplify (e.g., tapply(rainfall,

Dear R Developers, I should have had the Design library running in R by now but have kept putting off changing some calls to LINPACK routines to use those builtin to R. Specifically I call dqrsl1 and dqr. Would it be an easy task to put those in the next release of R? If not I'll finally bite the bullet and get back into reading LINPACK documentation (which I have but haven't examined

After several nice and informative discussions with Bill Venables, Duncan Temple Lang, Tony Rossini, Martin Maechler, and Robert Gentleman, I am pleased to announce that I am becoming an R user and have begun porting the Hmisc and Design libraries to R. I have been very impressed with the maturity of R and with its logical design, particularly its online documentation setup and the way packages

I saw an ad in the July 2001 Amstat News for a complex sample survey analysis package called Wesvar. The package has what appears to be a useful feature called a "Workbook" by which the user navigates analysis output. This is a hierarchical tree in which the user may click on a part of the analysis (table, regression fit, descriptive stats, etc.) so as to go directly to that output.
