Dear useRs, We are pleased to announce the preliminary release of the IPSUR package. The primary audience was originally envisioned to be upper division undergraduate mathematics/statistics/engineering majors, but other useRs may find this material useful. In a nutshell, this package slightly modifies and adds selected functionality to the R Commander by John Fox. The changes were meant to

IPSUR-1.0 is making its way through CRAN. It is a snapshot of the development version of the following textbook: Title: Introduction to Probability and Statistics using R, First Edition ISBN: 978-0-557-24979-4 Publisher: me The book is targeted for an undergraduate course in probability and statistics. The prerequisites are a couple semesters of calculus and a little bit of linear algebra. I

Dear R Community, I am pleased to announce the beta-release of the prob package. The source code is now on CRAN, and binaries should be generated there before long. In the meantime, you can get it with install.packages("prob", repos = "http://r-forge.r-project.org") The prob package gives a framework for doing elementary probability on finite sample spaces in R.

Dear R-Devel, I have had it in my mind for some time now that a Task View related to R and education might be a good thing. There are currently 19 Task Views, covering a broad spectrum of general topics for which R may be used. The homepage lists 64 books related to R, and several of them have accompanying packages on CRAN. There is a wiki and a host of contributed documentation. We also have a

Hello, I have been interested in setdiff() for data frames that operates row-wise. I looked in the documentation, mailing lists, etc., and didn't find exactly the right thing. Given data frames A, B with the same columns, the goal is to extract the rows that are in A, but not in B. Of course, one can usually do setdiff(rownames(A), rownames(B)) but that is cheating. :-) I played around a

Thanks to Jay Kerns and Jim Lemon for their help. It's exactly what I wanted and "aggregate" is very efficient even with a huge data. Thanks "G. Jay Kerns" <gkerns@ysu.edu> a écrit : Hi Louis, If I am understanding your question correctly, here is one way: suppose your matrix is M of dimension n x k. D <- data.frame(M) # convert to data frame ones <- rep(1,

Dear R-help, Suppose I write a script that looks something like this: #### script.R set.seed(something) x <- rnorm(100) y <- runif(500) # bunch of other stuff save.image() ### end of script.R Now, I give you a copy of my script.R (with the set.seed statement removed, of course) together with the .RData file that was generated by the save.image() command. Question: 1) can you tell

From R-help ... >I notice that you have the IPSUR package loaded; you know, just a >shot in the dark here, but did you try not loading it? > >I ask because the vignette is built by making a special choice for >set.seed, and the workspace that ships with the package might be >interacting in an unexpected way. Is it possible that a package can save a set seed and have the effect

Hello, This is in response to a post from a couple of years back regarding Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin Measures of Sampling Adequacy. (http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/05/12/17233.html) As it turns out, last year Trujillo-Ortiz et al. at the Universidad Autonoma de Baja California wrote and posted a script for MATLAB that does the job. You can see it (with a discussion of KMO statistics) at

Dear R-devel, Please see the recent thread on R-help, "Odd Behavior Out of setdiff(...) - addition of duplicate entries is not identified" posted by Jason Rupert. I gave an answer, then read David Winsemius' answer, and then did some follow-up investigation. I would like to change my answer. My current version of setdiff() is acting in a way that I do not understand, and a way

Dear R-help, I first thought that the empty set (for a vector) would be NULL. x <- c() x However, the documentation seems to make clear that there _many_ empty sets depending on the vector's mode, namely, numeric(0), character(0), logical(0), etc. This is borne out by y <- letters[1:3] z <- letters[4:6] intersect(y,z) which, of course, is non-NULL: is.null(character(0)) #

WinXP, R 2.10.1 I just updated R, and now have trouble. Perhaps it was the method I used to keep all the packages. I copied all the new packages from 2.10.1 back into the 2.10.0 folder, then copied them and all the others I've previously added from the 2.10.0 folder and pasted them back into 2.10.1's appropriate folder. Is this the source of my troubles? I am trying unsuccessfully to

Hi, I have this problem: X is hazardous variable N(mean 2, sd=3) >>question 1) Find the c value, so that P(X>c)=0.10. using R >>question 2) Graph the function N(2,3) and with this graph, explain what you do in question number 1. I just found question number one but not the second one. So, I'd like to make a plot form this distribution N (2,3) using the functions plot and

Hello guys, I am stuck here: How do I make 1000 samples of n = 10 observations from an Exponential distribution and then compute the mean for all those 1000 samples? Basically I need to prove the Central Limit theorem, which states: http://www.nabble.com/file/p22664113/d175f06cbf200bd52a2c27a2e56dc594.png Where the Sn is sum of random variables, n we have from the question, mu is mean and

Dear all, I am trying to write a plugin for the RCommander and having troubles understanding how to actually do that. I have read Mr. Fox's tutorial about writing Rcmdr plugins and though.... it seems to me that some steps are missing. I would like to know, whether there are some Commands which generate a plugin package out of a given library. Or do we just have to attach the .First.lib
