Dear R users I use R (1.3.0) Windows version usually with connection to Excel sheets via RODBC Version: 0.8-2. Everything is OK until I use mixed data types (numeric and character) in one column. In that case I will get a particular column of data frame with NA's. Example vzorek lpas apas NA 51.240 20.26 NA 51.340 20.42 NA 49.770 22.05 RB 12 49.840 19.30 RB 12 49.880

Hi, Can anyone tell me what might cause this error message? Error in .Fortran("swallocate", as.double(mtx), as.double(wt), as.integer(n), : C/Fortran function name not in load table This occurs when I copied the Splus stepwise() function into R. I can source into R fine, but when I need to call that function on some dataset, I got the above error message. Platform

Hi, Somehow I forgot how to do this... Say I have a command that produced a 28 x 28 data matrix. How can I output the matrix into a txt file (rather than copy/paste the matrix)? Thanks...

Hi, Suppose I have a matrix with, say 12 columns. I would like to extract out column 2 ~ 8 and 11 ~ 12 then combine them together. I tried with success to extract out the columns by doing: foo <- test[,2:8] goo <- test[,11:12] However then I am having trouble combining foo and goo. Helps are appreciated!

Hi there, I'm trying to get the manual for an R package (that I'm creating) to work... Firstly, I created the *.Rd files (by following the instructions in "Writing R Extensions" and using prompt() in R, then edit the *.Rd files. I then copy them into the "pkg/man" directory as suggested by the manual. However when I load the library (successfully) in R, I cannot

Hello, Can anyone offer any insight on graphing classification dendrograms with the nodes marked? plot(tree()) produces a nice tree structure but there's no acccompanying text. Thanks, D S.

Dear R-users, I am learning to use R 1.3.1 on a Pentium running Windows '98. I'm puzzled that several statistical procedures, t.test and chisq.test, do not appear to be available on R version 1.3.1. For example, if I type "t.test", I get the reply, "Object "t.test" not found". Is there a package that I have to load in order to have access to these

Hallo Please I have a question regarding read.table. I wonder if there is any possibility to read a content of 'clipboard' directly (let say as a copy from Excel like programs) or if it is always necessary to save a file in an appropropriate format. I use 1.2.0 W version with W95. Thank you very much. Best regards Petr Pikal Precheza a.s. Nabr.Dr.E.Benese 24 tel: 00420 641 25 2257

Hi there, Just out of curious, is there any difference between loess() and lowess() in R (and Splus in fact). Which one is more often used?

Hi, Can anyone tell me how I can compile R from source under Windows environemtn (I kind of know how to do it in a UNIX enviroment)? What I mean is, suppose I make some changes in the R base, or reorganising the libraries, and want to compile into a Setup.exe file (like the one located in CRAN), how should I do this? Many thanks in advance... Ko-Kang Wang

Hi, I am interested in seeing the LaTeX version of R manuals (such as An Introduction to R), and I found from CRAN that: "The texinfo sources of the latest version of these documents are contained in every R source distribution (in the subdirectory doc/manual of the extracted archive). " However when I went into that directory I only found the pdf and html version. Are there any

Hi, I was tutoring in the lab when a student asked me this question. Is it possible to save the work done in R, then source it back in AND display all the work within R later? I know that one can save the history (i.e. all the codes in a session) in *.R format, then source it back in at a later stage. However the historical codes will not be displayed within R, only the line source(...) is

Hi, I input this command on a data matrix: > apply( traffic, 2, function(z){z-mean(z)}) and got the following error messages: Error in sum(..., na.rm = na.rm) : invalid "mode" of argument Can anyone tell me what is wrong here?

Well, R is not S+ nor SPSS. Although it is sort of similar to S+ in terms of how you use it... You can get it from http://cran.r-project.org/ To know more about what it really is, you can get my PowerPoint presentation from: http://www.stat.auckland.ac.nz/~kwan022/pub/R/Introduction/ or and article I wrote from: http://www.stat.auckland.ac.nz/~kwan022/pub/SDK/SAD/Journal/ If you're a

Hi, I'm just wonder if there is an R equivalent function of gam() - which exist in Splus. Also does anyone know if the library( modreg ), which comes with the installation file of R 1.3.0 (Windows version), exists in the previous versions of R (again, Windows version)? Or does one need to install the library into the previous versions of R explicitly? Thanks, Ko-Kang Wang

Hi, Suppose I've got a data set that I found the eigenvalues and eigenvectors. Then I want to draw a screeplot for the eigenvalues. However it returns: Error in matrix(w.m, nc = NC) : negative extents to matrix Then I tried a plot() function on the eigenvalues of the data set, and I can successfully draw it! And the output looks like what the screeplot would show to me. Is there any

Hi there, I'm trying to write an R library (for Windows version) when I encountered this problem. I put in a dataset called mussels into a sub-folder, data (I saw this is how it is done in other libraries). However when I load the library in R and typed: data(mussels) it complains it cannot find the data set in the library. Everything else works fine (so far), am I missing something

Hi, I've been reading the Data Import and Export manual (page 25 on Connection chapter) but somehow I can't manage to get what I want. I have a 28x28 distance matrix, which I would like to export to a file. What I did was something like: zz <- file("ex.data", "w") # open an output file connection cat( traffic.manDist, file = zz ) # traffic.manDist is my
