Hi all, how do you update R on Debian lenny? I have tried to re-install r-base after adding deb http://<favorite-cran-mirror>/bin/linux/debian lenny-cran/ to my backport lists but it keeps installing R 2.7.1. What should I be doing to get the lattest R release? I need it to install a package (plyr) Thanks, David. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

OK, thanks both. I'll try that. I suspect (very strongly) that it comes from the fact that I did not replace the cran mirror line by an actulal cran mirror URLs... I will give a look at all my backports this weekend and do a little cleaning too! thanks,   David Biau.   ################################# From: Johannes Ranke <jranke@uni-bremen.de> To: r-sig-debian@r-project.org

well, I had the site and page and I had added the relevant backport but it didn't work and i keep installing R 2.7 . Don't know why; i probably missed something. #### May be you should add in your mail the file : /etc/apt/sources.list (I suppose there might be a typo, as IT addresses are long and booring, and AFAIK, correcting a typo one made is **very** difficult). FYI binary installs

Dear all, I have a dataframe of names (netw), with each cell including last name and initials of an author; some cells have NA. I would like to extract only the last name from each cell; this new dataframe is calle 'res' Here is what I do: res <- data.frame(matrix(NA, nrow=dim(netw)[1], ncol=dim(netw)[2])) for (i in 1:x) { wh <- regexpr('[a-z]{3,}',

Hello, I am modeling some survival data wih cph (Design). I have modeled a predictor which showed non linear effect with restricted cubic splines. I would like to retrieve the se(coef) for other, linear, predictors. This is just to make nice LateX tables automatically. I have the coefficients with coef(). How do I do that? Thanks, David Biau.

Dear all, i have re-installed Debian on my computer and for some reason I cannot install some packages anymore using the install.package command from the R console.

Dear Help List, I am trying to install a package (DiagnosisMed) on R (R version 2.10.1 (2009-12-14)) on Debian Lenny (architecture i386). I get the following error message: ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ * installing *source* package ‘DiagnosisMed’ ... ** R ** data ** preparing package for lazy loading Error in firstlib(which.lib.loc, package) : Tcl/Tk support is not available on this

Dear All, I have a data frame of vectors of publication names such as 'pub': pub1 <- c('Brown DK, Santos R, Rome DF, Don Juan X') pub2 <- c('Benigni D') pub3 <- c('Arstra SD, Van den Hoops DD, lamarque D') pub <- rbind(pub1, pub2, pub3) I would like to construct a dataframe with only author's last name and each last name in columns and the

Hello, I would like, if it is possible, to compare the effect of a variable across regression models. I have looked around but I haven't found anything. Maybe someone could help? Here is the problem: I am studying the effect of a variable (age) on an outcome (local recurrence: lr). I have built 3 models: - model 1: lr ~ age y = \beta_(a1).age - model 2: lr ~ age + presentation

Dear all,   i would like to count the number of times where I have combined occurrences of the categories of 2 variables.   For instance, in the dataframe below, i would like to know how many times each author (au1, au2, au3 represent the first, second, third author) is associated with each of the category of the variable 'nam'. The position of the author does not matter.   nam <-

If you need a newer version of R for installing the latest version of plyr, perhaps another solution (as very new versions of R -2-11.0- will come out soonly ) , which needs 2 lines of bash!, might be to download an old version of plyr : wget \ http://cran.at.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/plyr/plyr_0.1.1.tar.gz and install it R CMD INSTALL plyr_0.1.1.tar.gz (and then reshape

Hello, I have a dataframe (var_1, var_2, ..., var_n) and I would like to export summary statistics to Latex in the form of a table. I want specific summary statistics by crossing numerous variables 2x2 AT ONCE. In each cell I would like sometimes to have the median (Q1 - Q3), or frequency and proportion, etc. CrossTable, xtab, etc... do not allow for multiple 2 by 2 crosstabulation. The table

Dear R help list, I am modeling some survival data with coxph and survreg (dist='weibull') using package survival. I have 2 problems: 1) I do not understand how to interpret the regression coefficients in the survreg output and it is not clear, for me, from ?survreg.objects how to. Here is an example of the codes that points out my problem: - data is stc1 - the factor is dichotomous

Hi , guys: I have a new Acer laptop and I have installed CentOS 5.5 x86_64 bit. The problem is that there is no driver for the ATI mobility radeon HD5470 and the graphic is so bad! On amd-ati website I have found the catalyst driver version 10.2 butit seems not to be the correct solution. The current screen resolution is 1024x768, but my laptop is widescreen and the best screen resolution

1. The weibull is the only distribution that can be written in both a proportional hazazrds for and an accelerated failure time form. Survreg uses the latter. In an ACF model, we model the time to failure. Positive coefficients are good (longer time to death). In a PH model, we model the death rate. Positive coefficients are bad (higher death rate). You are not the first to be confused

Dear all, I am working on an author network and to do so I have to arrange a data.frame (tutu) crossing author names (rows) per publication number (column). The participation of the author to a study is indicated by a 1 and 0 otherwise. I have a vector (xaulist) of all the names of authors and a data.frame (tata) with all the publications in row and the authors in columns. I have writen a loop
