Dear everybody! Are there algorithms for multinominal logit/probit available for R? Is it my fault that I cannot find these in CRAN?

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

I want to cite R for an article. What is the right thing to do? Shall I include "Notes on R" or is there a better way? -- mailto:koloska at rcs.urz.tu-dresden.de http://rcswww.urz.tu-dresden.de/~koloska/ -- -- right now the web page is in german only but this will change as time goes by ;-)

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....

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 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

In S-Plus, one can invoke a shell command by prepending it with a "!", e.g.: > !ls Is something similar available in R? Is it possible to execute shell commands from within R?

HAPPY NEW YEAR to all of you! To clarify some questions in the recent thread on the timeslab package (sorry that I couldn't participate in the discussion, but I normally don't read my email on weekends): *) Nobody should be able to download from the incoming section at our site. That it was possible (again) was due to recursive link and some lazy sysadmins which now have some more things

I'm using R for calculations and plots in a statistical paper. Is there a canonical reference to use in the bibliography?

Dear R users, That's probably a silly question even for a newbie but : Is it possible to assign variable prices as variable names ? For instance, would something like the following work : for (i in 1:4) { error.i <- some_calculation } so "error.i" variables would be created for i=1,2,3,4 i.e. error.1 error.2 error.3 etc. etc. Costas --

Hello, I have found a problem with using the glm function with a gamma family. I have a vector of data, assumed to be generated by a gamma distribution. The parameters of this gamma distribution are estimated in two ways (i) using the glm() function, (ii) "by hand", using the optim() function. I find that the -2*likelihood at the maximum found by (i) is substantially larger than that

Hello folks, Any ideas how to do this? data.frame is a data frame with column names "x1",...,"xn" y is a response variable of length dim(data.frame)[1] I want to write a function function(y, data.frame){ lm(y~x1+...+xn) } This would be easy if n was always the same. If n is arbitrary how could I feed the x1+...+xn terms into lm(response~terms)? Thanks Richard -- Dr.

When reading comma-delimited files as saved from a spreadsheet (unfortunately many of my scientific collaborators give me these) in read.table(), missing values are spotted most of the time. Unfortunately when comma is the first character on the line it gets it wrong. For example, reading the file 1,,3 ,5,6 ,8,9 with read.table("test.dat", header=F, sep=",") R gives

Hello, I've had a quick look on the list and can't find an answer to this niggle. Whilst debugging some code, I noticed that looping variables in R are not local to the loop as seams common in procedural languages. For example consider the following piece of code: for(i in 1:3){ cat(i,"") for(i in c("a","b","c")){ cat(i,"")

Hi Does anyone know of any R coding/functions for MCMC approaches? I am currently using BUGS but I wonder if the bazaar has produced anything? I think I am pushing BUGS to it's limit and possibly past it at the moment.

Dear Wine-friends, I was wondering if any of you would have a clue around why WinBUGS (http://www.mrc-bsu.cam.ac.uk/bugs/), a nifty Markov chain Monte Carlo sampler widely used in Bayesian statistical modelling, no longer works when run through any version of WINE newer than 1.1.12. I have encountered this issue of my machines at home (which runs on Zenwalk 6.0) and work (Mandriva 2008.1) a

hi i'm looking for a gibbs sampling algorithm for R for the case of mixture of K normals, and in particular for the case of bivariate normals. i'd be grateful if anyone could send its own R-routine, at least for the univariate case. thank you in advance matteo
