A concrete type I/III Sum of square problem
Hi R-help members,
I have read a lot in the Archive about the "Type I" vs "Type III" sum
of square. I think I have read confusing post so
I want to have a clear idea of the problem.
Here is an example.
I have 3 groups of subjects of unequal sample size (G1 (n=7), G2
(n=7), G3 (n=4)).
for Each subject I have 4 measures corresponding to the crossing of

Dispersion in summary.glm() with binomial & poisson link
Following p.206 of "Statistical Models in S", I wish to change
the code for summary.glm() so that it estimates the dispersion
for binomial & poisson models when the parameter dispersion is
set to zero. The following changes [insertion of ||dispersion==0
at one point; and !is.null(dispersion) at another] will do the trick:
"summary.glm" <-

'at' parameter in mtext(.., adj=0, outer=T) (PR#396)
Depending on the setting of par()$usr,
the 'at' setting in mtext(.., adj=0, outer=T) may cause the
text to appear in an anomalous position (e. g. in the first
instance below, at the left of the plot region rather than
at 'at=0' in the figure region), or the text may not appear
at all.
If one does not set the 'at' parameter the text appears
(with 'adj=0') on the

L-shaped boxes with lattice graphs?
Can anyone suggest an equivalent, for lattice graphs,
of the base graphics argument bty="l"?
NB that I am leaving off the box around the strip,
with a strip function:
stripfun <- function(which.given,which.panel,
factor.levels=as.expression(levlist), ...){
panel.text(x=0, y=0.5,

How do I add fitted curves to coplots?
G''day
I''ve been performing an analysis of some data by a follow the leader
method (Bad I know but it seems to work and I think I understand all the
steps now) and I''ve run into a problem. The analysis is for all practical
purposes identical to the non-linear mixed effects analysis performed on

Muliple partial matches with pmatch
I am using R0.64.1 under Windows 95.
The help for `pmatch' states that:
If `duplicates.ok' is false multiple matches will result
in the value of `nomatch' being returned, and if it is
true, the index of the first matching value will be
returned.
The help for pmatch gives the following examples:

Use of Rd2txt on .Rd files from rw-1.0.0 (PR#498)

Subject: Use of Rd2txt on .Rd files from rw-1.0.0
Files generated using prompt.data.frame() under rw-1.0.0 get
scrambled (mildly) when I process them under Rd2txt on Solaris,
(using R-devel 1.1.0).
Files generated under R-devel 1.1 on Solaris are processed ok.

Plot Character Sizes in rw-0.90.0
I have two supposedly identical installations, one under Windows 95,
and the other (at home) under Windows 98. The puzzle is that under
my Windows 98 installation, symbols plotted by default or with pch
come out huge, at about 2.2 times the height of the axis labels.
Setting cex=0.5 seems about what is needed to fix the heights.
On the Windows 95 installation, the symbols come out just a little

Enhanced version of plot.lm()
I propose the following enhancements and changes to plot.lm(),
the most important of which is the addition of a Residuals vs
Leverage plot.
(1) A residual versus leverage plot has been added, available
by specifying which = 5, and not included as one of the default
plots. Contours of Cook's distance are included, by default at
values of 0.5 and 1.0. The labeled points, if any, are those

Use of R in Schools
I am looking for information on experimentation with the use
of R in the teaching of statistics and science in schools. Any
leads would be very welcome. I am certain that there is such
experimentation.
I've made this inquiry on r-sig-teaching, with no response.

Thus factor analysis is in essence a model for the correlation matrix of x,

This should surely be ? = ??' + ?
