Dear all, Many thanks to all who always so quickly respond with helpful hints! Currently I am working with R 0.63.1 on SuSE 5.2 which I installed this morning within about half an hour: my deepest compliments to the developpers! (I had still 0.62.2 before.) This time I am trying the following: > xy <- list (a= c (1, 2, NA), b= c (2, 3)) > list.name <- "xy" > get

Dear all, is this a bug or do a miss something (this concerns version 0.63.1 on Linux)? > boxplot (c (1, 2, 3, 4, 5), ylim= c (-5, 5)) Warning: parameter "ylim" couldn't be set in high-level plot() function > boxplot (c (1, 2, 3, 4, 5), pars= list (ylim= c (-5, 5))) Warning: parameter "ylim" couldn't be set in high-level plot() function > and actually in

Dear all, well, today I just seem to run into these problems ... (I am still working on R 0.63.1 on a SuSE 5.2). I would like to have a data.frame that also contains character (and NOT factor) vectors. Two things that I tried (the second worked in R 0.62.2): > test.df <- data.frame (X= character (4)) > test.df$X [1] <- "a" Warning: invalid factor level, NAs generated or:

Dear all, The following works with a simple result of lm but gives the error with a more complicated one (could this be due to singularities that occurr in the model?). > cooks.distance (X) Error: NAs in foreign function call (arg 6) > class (X) [1] "lm" But, actually, I would like to ask a more general question: Is there a place (I searched in the CRAN site) where I find

Dear all, I think this question has been raised very recently but I think I didn't see repsonses on the list nor did I find the thread in the archives. (If it is there I'd appreciate directions ...) I am about to install Linux on a Compaq notebook. One important thing I want to do is being able to run R. I have fiddled with different distributions of Linux (LST, SuSE, Debian) and can

Dear all, in a current project I have a pretty huge .Rdata. Thus I was working with R --vsize 100 --nsize 1000000. Today when I tried to restart R I get the following error message: Error: a read error occured Fatal error: unable to restore saved data (remove .RData or increase memory) I increased memory up to --vsize 180 and --nsize 2000000, but the error reoccurrs. Is there a way to know

Dear all, I would like to fit an lm in which a subset of the explanatory variables are linearly dependent. Thus I would like to include the restriction that all betas of these variables sum to 1. Is there a way to this in R? Or is this what happens automatically if I set singular.ok= T (which is the default, I believe)? Thanks for your help. Lorenz --

Dear all, I am trying to use ace on a 446 x 14 Matrix, with two categorical variables in the first two columns. If I try to run it I get: > aceiH <- ace (data.mat, resp, cat= 1:length(x.cat)) Error: NAs in foreign function call (arg 3) There is only one .Fortran call in ace () with the third argument being x = t(x). Thus I tried to debug ace, i.e. I went through ace until just before

Dear all, I would like to use the biological symbols for male and female as plotting symbols in a scatterplot (ideally filled and non-filled). R does not seem to have these symbols using pch= in plot() nor are they implemented via expression() or at least I did not find them. I found that the symbols are e.g. available in the wasysym and the marvosym package in LaTeX. I have coded two very rough

Hi, Another question about graphics... Suppose I have: par(mfrow = c(4, 6)) which will set up a figure region for 24 plots. But, I actually only need 23 plots. In fact I wrote a little function, foo.plot, which will draw all the 23 plots at once with: foo.plot(x) where x is a data frame. Now, suppose I want to draw several set of these 23 plots, but want to put them all in one postscript

I am using lme to handle repeated measurements. So far i can follow the examples from the book from pinheiro and bates. Now i get the problem , that i have "nested" repeated measuremnts, and i cant find out how to do the grouping part of the lme formula. 1.The simple problem ist that i have different Samples , from which i make repeated measurements (each sample is measured 6 times) and

Does someone out there have an example of R-code for a split-split plot ANOVA using aov or another function? The design is not balanced. I never set up one in R before and it would be nice to see an example before I tackle a very complex design I have to model.

Hi all, I am not a very proficient R-user yet, so I hope I am not wasting people?s time. I want to run a linear mixed model with 3 random factors (A, B, C) where A and B are partially crossed and C is nested within B. I understand that this is not easily possible using lme but it might be using lmer. I encountered two problems when trying: Firstly, I can enter two random factors in lmer but

Dear all, I do not seem to grasp how contrasts are set for ordered factors. Perhaps someone can elighten me? When I work with ordered factors, I would often like to be able to reduce the used polynomial to a simpler one (where possible). Thus, I would like to explicetly code the polynomial but ideally, the intial model (thus, the full polynomial) would be identical to one with an ordered factor.

I am trying to perform a model 3 ANOVA for a 2 factor (say factor A and factor B) anova in which factor A is fixed and factor B is random. Therefore, the error term for the test of factor A should be the A:B interaction term and the error terms for B and A:B should be the model residual (within) term. I have tried to work out how to specify such error strata using aov, however, I have had

Hi everybody, I've found a very interesting problem in R: the if-else statement doesn't work in a main program. Sounds crazy, but true. I tried this very easy example, and I got syntax error at the "else" line. Example: ------- a <- 1 if ( a == 1 ) print("yes") else print("no") -------- I tried on Windows and on Linux, but none of them works.

Hi there Please excuse this elementary question, but I have been fumbling with this for hours and can't seem to get it right. I have a nested anova, with random factor "lakefac" nested within factor "fishfac" (fixed), with an additional fixed factor "Habfac". If I consider everything as fixed effects, it's addmittedly not the correct model, but I can at
