Hi Martin, I take your point - but I'd argue that significance stars are a clumsy solution to the very real problem that you outline, and their inclusion as a default sends a signal about their appropriateness that I would prefer R not to endorse. My preference (to the extent that it matters) would be to see the significance stars be an option but not a default one, and the addition of

Dear all, I agree with both Russ and Terry that the significance stars option should default to FALSE. Here's what Sandy Weisberg and I say about significance starts in the current edition of the R Companion to Applied Regression: 'If you find the ?statistical-significance? asterisks that R prints to the right of the p-values annoying, as we do, you can suppress them, as we will in the

My www directory is owned by "apache" and the group is "todd" and the permissions are 775. My Windows computers use Samba and they log into Linux with "todd". Under the www directory there are various directories which may have a group belonging to a user e.g. "viewpoint". Using this example, there is a directory under www (acutally called httpd),

Dear R-users, within the rgl-package, I would have a question about the usage of persp3d in combination of rgl.viewpoint. I am not able to figure out how to let a 3D plot rotating around likewise the example in ?rgl.viewpoint. It seems that when I use persp3d(...) I see something on my screen, which is different from what I get when it's rotating. Is there any different behavior between

Is there a way to change the viewpoint using view3d (or rgl.viewpoint) with respect to the image that currently appears rather than the perspective that rgl thinks is the default? For example, if I create an image and then perform what should be a no-op: rgl.viewpoint(userMatrix=rotationMatrix(0,1,0,0)) the image is rotated. Then I can perform rotations on the result without surprises. But I

Dear R-Devel, As I am sure many of you know, a special issue of The American Statistician just came out, and its theme is the [mis]use of P values and the many common ways in which they are abused. The lead editorial in that issue mentions the 2014 ASA guidelines on P values, and goes one step further, by now recommending that the words "statistically significant" and related simplistic

Today's GNU R tutorial in http://how-to.linuxcareer.com/a-quick-gnu-r-tutorial-to-statistical-models-and-graphics points out how bad statistical practice is being further perpetuated, by virtue of "significance stars" still being the default in printed output from lm models. ----- Frank Harrell Department of Biostatistics, Vanderbilt University -- View this message in context:

I read through the editorial. This is the one of the most mega-ultra-super-biased articles I've ever read. e.g. The authors encourage Baysian methods, and literally encourage subjective approaches. However, there's only one reference to robust methods and one reference to nonparametric methods, both of which are labelled as purely exploratory methods, which I regard as extremely

Dear list, I'm using the function "movie3d" in the package "rgl" to create a .gif animation of a 3d graphic. The program "ImageMagik" is working properly, R packages are working, basic examples available in the manual also working fine. Problem Solved: when I tried to create more complex movies, i.e. combining different views and zooming, the R-console crashed

Hi there, I am fairly new to R and I have been trying to figure out how to separate a column of substrate data that I have into separate parts using R. An example of my data looks like this is: gmtTime Classification ClassValue Species Count 1449 Sand 30 1449 Mud 70 Brittle Star 1 1449 Mud 70

Context: I have two or more rgl-based views of a given data set, perhaps fitting different models, or showing different things across views. I want to be able to hand-rotate, zoom, scale one view to something I like, and then show the other views with matching viewpoints and scaling. so that one could flip back/forth among graphs and see only the relevant differences. In 2D, all this usually

Hello everybody, i used xtable to get some latex output, which worked pretty well with my latex document. But somewhere i missed the part where they explain how to get these nice significance indicating *** into my latex table. it just stops right after Pr(> |t|) thanks in advance matthias

Dear r-help users, I am using Sweave and Latex to create tables with output from several statistical test. As an example: I have a grouping variable "group" with two levels ("x" and "y") which I compare on variables ("a" and "b"). I have created a table in which means, standard deviations, and the statistic and p.value resulting from a t.test is

Hey folks, Is there a Linux tool that will monitor a disk and tell me which directories are growing over time? I could cobble something together myself of course, but if there is already a good off-the-shelf solution, why bother? Even if it only checks once per day that would be fine. Graphs would be pretty too :-) cheers, -Alan -- ?Don't eat anything you've ever seen advertised on

While writing a function that includes placing grid lines at the same position as the axis ticks, I found that the axis* functions don't return anything. Thus I have had to copy the appropriate function, removing the call to axis() and adding a line to return the tick positions. Is there a more elegant way to determine the tick positions on an axis? Thanks. Jim (normally bitwrit at
