> Dear R-users! > > I am using R 1.0.0 and Windows NT 4.0 > In the past I have used several different working directories for different projects, and during many of these projects I have written some functions for particular purposes. Now I thought I would be nice to have all these "personal" functions collected in one place, and to make them available in R no matter which

I'm sorry if this is a trivial question. My system is R 6.33 on Win98 with basic libraries plus the "cluster" library. I'm using "agnes" and "hclust" functions to perform cluster analysis on big data sets. Looking at the documentation for libraries "mva" and "cluster" I can't find out a function like S-Plus "cutree" to get

There seems to be a bug in "dotplot" concerning the "cex" parameter. Setting cex has no effect on the character size of the labels of the points. This problem was posted to r-help today (Thu, 18 Jan 2001); the solution given by Brian Ripley (and Uwe Ligges) seems to work for me. Heinrich Rinner. > version _ platform i386-pc-mingw32 arch x86

Indeed, there is no file named "dlltool" anywhere around here! So, at last I am beginning to suspect that my collection of tools is incomplete. What I have got is "rw1020sp.zip" and "http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/bdr/RWin/tools.zip". These are properly istalled, I think. readme.packages says "If your package has no C nor Fortran nor C++ sources, see `Simple

I almost didn't believe in it anymore, but Rcmd INSTALL finally is working for me! Thanks to all who helped on this, especially to Guido Masarotto, Brian Ripley, John Fox, Peter Dalgaard, Uwe Ligges. Anyway, I do think the documentation is a bit confusing here (at least for me, I don't know if others have felt the same). It might be a good idea to add the essence of Brians and Guidos

Hi, I just had a very quick look at the StatDataML proposal --- nice work! At the risk of showing my ignorance, I want to mention my first impressions. My first impression is that defining datasets in terms of arrays and list is a bit too high a level. What about simpler vectors, scalars? (I know that R/S don't have scalars, but other systems/applications do.) Can we think of a core

As mentioned earlier I want to decentralize the package descriptions of all contributed packages: Please make sure to include a file called DESCRIPTION in every package which looks like: ********************************************************** Package: e1071 Version: 0.7-3 Author: Compiled by Fritz Leisch <Friedrich.Leisch at ci.tuwien.ac.at>. Description: Miscellaneous functions used

Thanks for this clarification. I have learned in the meantime that it is necessary to be very careful when using all these POSIX things. As another example, here is something that made me scratch my head just yesterday: When I create a sequence of days that happens to start before and ends in daylight savings time, I seem to lose a day: > seq(from = strptime("20030329",

I've made a package from some benchmark datasets for use with R and uploaded it to CRAN. Here's the Index entry: mlbench-0.1.tar.gz: A collection of artificial and real-world machine learning benchmark problems, including, e.g., the boston housing data from the UCI repository. Written/packaged by Fritz Leisch <Friedrich.Leisch at ci.tuwien.ac.at> Original data sets from

Hi there, I'm doing some clustering analysis and try to find all the algorithms related to clustering in R. Here is the list of the algorithms I found. But I'm not sure if It's the complete list. Could you please check it and see if there're other ones? Thank you very much! P.S.: List of the algorithms related to clustering: (1) Hierarchical methods hclust

Hi, I've trouble compiling R-0.49 (with both patches applied) on a HP-UX sim B.10.20 A 9000/819 machine: ranlib ../lib/libappl.a cd regex; make c89 -Ae -g -I../include -DPOSIX_MISTAKE -c regcomp.c cc: warning 422: Unknown option "-Ae" ignored. cc: "../include/regex.h", line 50: error 1000: Unexpected symbol: "regoff_t". cc:

Dear R-users! I would like to search for "association rules" (and compute support and confidence, for example) in a data set, and wonder if this can be done with R (version 1.5.0 for Windows)? Particulary, I wonder if a) anyone has done something like that with R or b)maybe someone has written an R-interface to some existing algorithm/software (e.g. to something like the

Hi, is there any way to exchange (A LOT OF) data between SPPS and R/Splus, i.e., I want to get data from SPSS into R. It is a huge data frame with many columns being factors, so manual conversion is out of question (and there are more data to come). Exporting ASCII from SPSS seems to loose all level names, and the portable SPSS format doesn't look too nice. I've searched S-news and

Is there some sort of replot function, i.e., reproducing the current plot like gnuplot's command replot? Of course it's easy to issue a plot command twice, but after several lines statements it gets a little bit annoying ... and the plot disappears each time one resizes the window, changes from single plot to multiple plots etc. Just dreaming ... Fritz --

NEW: CRAN/src/contrib/devel/mda_0.1-1.tar.gz I have made a first shot at porting the Hastie & Tibshirani mda package t= o R ... this is almost not tested at all ... but it works for the iris data and what else could a statistician be possibly interested in anyway = :-) All BRUTO stuff is missing because there are some unresolved symbols: R.binary: can't resolve symbol

I think I've gotten my Emacs/Sweave/R system set up correctly, thanks to Vincent and Jim, but I haven't been successful getting my first document produced. I'm trying to use one of Friedrich Leisch's examples, http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/~leisch/Sweave/example-1.Snw. I cut and pasted the text into a document sweaveexample.Rnw in Emacs. It seemed to be processed successfully with R:
