Hi, I tried running Rcmd.exe to no avail. It doesn't even start because it tries to read some memory address that NT says it can't and terminate. I tried downloading and reinstalling rw1020sp.zip with the installer twice just in case it got corrupted somehow in transport but it resulted in the same problem. What should I do? platform i386-pc-mingw32 arch x86 os Win32 system

Hi, Would there be a function and/or some options to force R to write a value of say 1.0e-4 as "0.0001"? More specifically I want to use R to write ASCII file(s) for other programs to read and some of these programs don't know how to deal numbers in scientific notation or have a different convention. Thanks in advance. Yves Gauvreau B.E.F.P. Universit? du Qu?bec ? Montr?al cyg at

Hi, If I may suggest that something be done to the window drawing function of a plot. As it is now, we don't even have time to resize the window by a tiny bit before it's invoke and I think it would be an improvement if while the mouse is down the redrawing was delayed somehow. This is especially true when the plot is crowded. I also observed that moving the plot window around was a lot

A trick I use is to give tab-delimited text files created by excel or R the .xls extension: this may apply, and it may be better, to CSV: R couldn't see any difference whichever the extension will be, and windows will be foolished by the .xls extension an will open the file with Excel that will handel it CORRECTLY. If you need to have the data always alligned in Excel and R this trick will

Dear List, Suppose I want to do a demonstration with R, which I will be showing a couple of different graphs (e.g. demo(graphics) ). However I want R to run through each graphics automatically. I can achieve this by changing the line in demo(graphics): opar <- par(ask = interactive() && (.Device %in% c("X11", "GTK", "windows",

Hi, I've installed the RODBC library, R1.000, NT 4.0. When I try to load it here is what I get: library(RODBC) Warning message: Package `RODBC' contains no R code in: library(RODBC) channel <- odbcConnect("PubsDSN", "sa", "password") # userId and password Error: couldn't find function "odbcConnect" Does anyone can shed some ligth on this

Hi, I know it must be written somewhere but I can't find it. I'd like to remove all variables or objects that I've created but not the functions. I look at a few things without success. Is there a R way of doing this? There are to many to create a manual list. Thanks in advance. Yves Gauvreau -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-help

Hi, Is there a way to apply a function to rows or columns of a matrix? Now I use apply(as.matrix(1:nrow(m), 1, function(x) mean(m[x,])) which works fine but kind of slow on large matrix. I'm sure there is something on this somewhere but I can't find it. Thanks Yves Gauvreau -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-help mailing list -- Read

Hello, I'm afraid this message is going to be a little long (188 lines, not counting the headers). It is comprised, in fact, of two posts I sent to the comp.protocols.smb newsgroup, from which I've not received any replies. I'm hoping I can have better luck with the mailing list, (to which I've just subscribed, so it's probably most appropriate to send replies there...)

Dear R buddies, I’m trying to run Principal Component Analysis, package princomp: http://stat.ethz.ch/R-manual/R-patched/library/stats/html/princomp.html. My question is: why do I get different results with pca = princomp (x, cor = TRUE) and pca = princomp (x, cor = FALSE) even when I standardize variables in my matrix? Best regards, Blaž Simčič [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi , To my knowledge, there're two functions that can do principal component analysis, princomp and prcomp. I don't really know the difference; the only thing I know is that when the sample size < number of variable, only prcomp will work. Could someone tell me the difference or where I can find easy-to-read reference? To access the first PC using princomp:

Hi, I need to write a function that would look something like this: S <- function(b=betas){ expression(b[1] * f(b[2] * x * f(b[3] * x * f(...b[n-1] * x * f(b[n] * x)))...) } Where n is the number of element in b. Further I need to be able to evaluate S at some x numerically of course and I need to use "deriv" and produce dS/dx such that I can evaluate it also at some x. I

Hi all, What is (or how to I change) the maximum width of a pdf image. I am trying to make a pdf image: pdf(file="out.pdf",width=200,height=20) and I can't get the image to be more that 200 inches wide i.e. I get an empty out.pdf . Is there a solution around this.
