BUG IN SPLINE()? Version R-1.0.1, system i486,linux If the spline(x,y,method="natural") function is given values outside the range of the data, it does not give a warning. Moreover, the extrapolated value reported is not the ordinate of the natural spline defined by (x,y). Example. Let x <- c(2,5,8,10) and y <- c(1.2266,-1.7606,-0.5051,1.0390). Then interpolate/extrapolate with

I'm using R 1.7.0 on linux. With this version of R the package modreg is automatically loaded at start of session. However attempting to use predict.smooth.spline() produces Error: couldn't find function predict.smooth.spline. The function smooth.spline() is OK.

Hi, I am very new to R and trying to bring my plot of residuals to my LaTex document, and seems as I need some help. I first tried the example from the help file, e.g. pictex(file="model1.tex", width=5, height=4) plot(1:11,(-5:5)^2, type='b', main="Simple Example Plot") dev.off() this worked fine in LaTex when I did : \centerline{\input{Rplots.tex}} However, with

After a one-way anova, se.contrast computes the standard error of a contrast, but not the value of the contrast itself. Wouldn't this be useful?

Apologies if this is this too obscure for R-help. In package splines, ns(x,,knots,intercept=TRUE) produces an n by K+2 matrix N, the values of K+2 basis functions for the natural splines with K (internal) knots, evaluated at x. It does this by first generating an n by K+4 matrix B of unconstrained splines, then postmultiplying B by H, a K+4 by K+2 representation of the nullspace of C (2 by K+4),

Dear R-help, Why can't lme cope with an incomplete whole plot when analysing a split-plot experiment? For example: R : Copyright 2006, The R Foundation for Statistical Computing Version 2.3.1 (2006-06-01) > library(nlme) > attach(Oats) > nitro <- ordered(nitro) > fit <- lme(yield ~ Variety*nitro, random=~1|Block/Variety) > anova(fit) numDF denDF F-value

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

Greetings- I'm aware that there's no documentation for pictex available easily (that is, without purchasing it). I'm wondering if someone can help me with a simple task. When generating a plot using pictex() from R, one of the commands I use is mtext("Dimension 2: L=xxxx", side=2, line=3) when using X11(), this appears vertically along the Y axis; when using pictex(), it

Can anyone explain why with latest version of R (2.0.1) on FC3, installed from R-2.0.1-0.fdr.2.fc3.i386.rpm, update.packages() produces the message /usr/lib/R/bin/Rcmd exec: INSTALL: not found. Indeed /usr/lib/R/bin seems to lack various shell scripts (INSTALL, REMOVE, etc). ====================================== I.White University of Edinburgh Ashworth Laboratories, West Mains Road Edinburgh

Is the pictex graphics device known not to support color? In R 2.0.1 Patched (2004-11-17), it produced very pretty output: ## pictex(file = "modern-metatheonomy.tex", bg = "transparent"); ## plotData(data); ## dev.off() ... but it appears to have ignored all color information. __________ Steve Rowley <steve.rowley at sanofi-aventis.com> Cambridge, MA: (617) 768-4054

Dear R People, I want to include a barplot corresponding to a simple discrete probability distribution in a LaTeX document. I decided to use the pictex driver. After a certain amount of messing about, I came up the stuff below. It does not look too bad, however, there is one very obvious piece of weirdness, ie. the y axis terminates at 0.1 and does not extend down further. I tried to adjust this

Greetings- I've got some plots I'd like to include in a LaTeX document; specifically, I'd like to include them via pictex() so I can edit some of the particulars directly. However, an odd problem is coming up: a diagonal line is drawn from bottom-left to upper-right when using pictex(). This does not happen using X11() or postscript() with the same series of commands. Any ideas why

I'm running R 1.2.2. The help information for manova says that the result is "A list with components SS: A names list of sums of squares and product matrices. Eigenvalues: A matrix of eigenvalues, stats: A matrix of the statistics, approximate F value and degrees of freedom." However, when I run the example, with fit <- manova(Y ~ rate*additive), I find that fit$SS is NULL.

At the top of page 283 of Pinheiro and Bates, a covariance structure for the indomethicin example is specified as random = pdDiag(A1 + lrc1 + A2 + lrc2 ~ 1) The argument to pdDiag() looks like a two-sided formula, and I'm struggling to reconcile this with the syntax described in Ch4 of the book and online. Further down page 283 the formula is translated into list(A1 ~ 1, lrc1 ~ 1, A2 ~ 1,

Does lme prediction work correctly with poly() terms? In the following simulated example, the predictions are wildly off. Or am I doing something daft? Milk yield for five cows is measured weekly for 45 weeks. Yield is simulated as cubic function of weekno + random cow effect (on intercept) + residual error. I want to recover an estimate of the fixed curve. ############### library(nlme)

The example at ?pictex does not work (the driver apparently uses 'rotatebox') for me as stated. It did compile after including the graphicsx package. A MWE is at the help page for pictex. I tried to get in touch with Valerio but his email bounced. Probably we want to add a \usepackage{graphicsx} to the help page and try to track down Valerio. Cheers, Kyle This is pdfTeX, Version

[I'm refiling this one due to mailer config messup] I get an error whenever I try to plot a histogram in pictex. The error doesn't occur for X11 or postscript. > x<-c(1,2,3) > pictex() > hist(x) Error: Bad units specified in GConvert, please report! platform i686-unknown-linux arch i686 os linux

Dear All, I'm trying to draw a TeX histogram with the following pair of commands, pictex(file = "realhisto.tex") hist(Peaklist$V3,xlab="Height $z/\\ut{mm}$",ylab="Probability density $\\phi{}(z-z_0)/(1/\\ut{mm})$") However, in the resulting file realhisto.tex, I get, for example \put {Height \$z/\ut\{mm\}\$} [lB] <0.00pt,0.00pt> at 136.13 9.17 when
