Hello R users, This question might be already discussed before, I apologize if it is the case. Simple... how can I do to include a figure in a latex document. As I have already done in Splus, I tried this: \begin{figure} \special{psfile=gauss.ps .......} \end{figure} but it didn't work. Any help? Thank you in advance. PS: I let down the Mac and the MS Window platforms and I am back to my

Dear R-users It is me again with my interminables questions... This time it is about "pictex". I understood that pictex allows us to put our graph in a latex file I have try the function: > pictex (file=...) and the answer was: "pictex" not found... Does it mean that it is not an R-function yet? Thank you for any feedback. Halima from Leiden

Hello, I am trying to print graphs using R on MS windows by clicking on the option Print on the top of the window, the surprise...I don't get the graph, but the text, I think asci, that generate the graph, about 20 pages what is the problems.... Please.... any help is appreciated, thank you so much halima =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= r-help

Hello everybody, I am doing a plot and I would like to know which parameter I have to use in order to get an equal scale for the axes x and y: Means, if the intervals in the x-axis is 0,5,10,15.... I would like to have the same scale for the y-axis. Thank you so much for your help. Halima from Leiden where the sun is shining. Holland

Hello again, Since it was very efficient to ask people of r-help about reading a file in R from Mac, and I thank them all. It gives me the courage to ask another question. I get use in Splus(unix) to write a function using the editor emacs, a small function called emacs() helped me to open at anytime an emacs window in Splus to open a function, change it, add something on it.... Now my problem

hello, I have been using R for few months now, it seems very helpful even on Macintosh ;-), but there are some functions I don't find. For example, I am ploting some histograms and I would like to put over the hist, the curve of the distribution of my data. If my memory is right, in Splus it could be done by using the function "density", I looked at R manual and find the function

Hello, I need to draw a vertical line on my plot, the uncertainty segment (which is a vertical segment on every point of my plot so I can have an idea about the probability that a point is misclassified.... clustering problem.....) I remember I have done it a long time ago in Splus using a function called "segment" to which we give the extrem point of the segment , I didn't find

I frequently use Makefiles to manage routine data manipulations and repeated analyses where the "raw" data tend to change with time. With S/Splus, this has worked quite naturally, as long as I'm careful to use S object names that map directly to Unix/Linux filenames. For example, say I'm building a particular graphic (chart.ps) from a data.frame in S (mydata) that comes from an

Dear R-users I am introducing my collegue to R and she is interested to use R to perform Polytomous Logistic Regression called also Multi-category logistic regression. Is there any program in R doing this? Thank you so much for any feedback. I take this opportunity to thank people who were kind to answer my query about how to include a postscript file generated from R, in a latex file and

Hi all Apologies for any cross posting. I have encountered a rather bizarre "problem" in Splus and R. I am using Age-Period-Cohort models to model cervical cancer and have run the same data on both R (v.1.4.1 & v1.6.2) and Splus (version 6.0). I used the same command line in both Splus and R: glm(cases~-1+as.factor(age)

Hi, I have a few questions about how to handle large data sets in R. What is the size of the largest matrix that R can comfortably deal with? Is this size limit imposed by R's software, or is it a question of the machine that one runs on? How does one go about choosing reasonable values of vsize and nsize? I have a data set with about 1,000,000 rows, and 30

Hello, I'd like to thank the people who replied to my query about the Plot and scale. I tried all the propositions and they works fine, but the one I liked and that worked very well is the Brian Ripley's function that our dear Vill Venables from Australia send me. If someone needs to use this function and with the permission of Vill, I can send it to him/her. It works very well. Thanks

Hi all I have a couple of obscure questions for R/Splus experts (which unfortunately isn't me!) I am trying to compute Bayes Factors using some Splus code of Raftery in Gilks et al (1996). Only problem is 1) R doesn't seem to have a robust covariance (cov.mve) which I suspect I need rather than a non-robust classical estimate 2) Splus has cov.mve BUT dgamma in Splus doesn't have a

This is a follow-up on my note of Saturday. Let me start with two important clarifications - I think this would be a nice addition, but I've had exactly one use for it in the 15+ years of developing the survival package. - I have a work around for the current case. Prioritize accordingly. The ideal would be to change survexp as follows: fit <- survexp( ~ gender,

I've recently installed R for RH5.0 Linux and been considering moving existing work from Splus (Windows, 4.5). Also installed the win95 R, but this doesn't seem to work as well, and in any case the idea is to move toward Linux. 1 I attach and detach directories freely and often in Splus. Is it anticipated that it will be possible to do this in R in the future? 2 The ascii representation

Martin's reply to Jean-Francois' question is pretty complete, but I suspect what JF and other new users want is 'how to transfer the *whole* of my Splus .Data (or _Data on PC) workspace into R' rather than just certain functions/data. In correspondence some months ago Peter Dalgaard and I came up with Splus: > dump(objects(),"dumpfile") R: >

Just a note to point out a couple of small incompatibilities that tripped up a port of some S code to R. in axis() the first argument is called 'which' in R but 'side' in Splus, so code which names the first arg (ie axis(side=1)) falls over in R. The fix is a trivial name change in src/library/base/R/axis. in image() the defaulting of arguments doesn't allow me to say

I would like to introduce R to the statistical community at large in the Washington, D.C. area. I will be giving a presentation, a part of which will be devoted to a discussion of R, before the Washington Statistical Society (WSS) on 15 October. Anyone residing in the D.C. area is welcomed to come. Also, if a developer should have plans of being Washington and would
