newbie questions: accessing functions globally
How can I access a function created in one data directory in another? I have been sourcing the text file that contains the function each time I go to another data dir. This is cumbersome, and I suspect there is a way to make functions global. Thanks in advance, S. David White Dept of Speech and Hearing Science Ohio State University Columbus, Ohio

Setting elements in data frame
Hi all, I have a problem which I am biting my teeth into unsuccessfully: (x <- data.frame(S1=c("a","b","d","F"),N1=c(2,4,6,9),N2=c(6,NA,0,6))) S1 N1 N2 1 a 2 6 2 b 4 NA 3 d 6 0 4 F 9 6 > is.na(x) S1 N1 N2 1 FALSE FALSE FALSE 2 FALSE FALSE TRUE 3 FALSE FALSE FALSE 4 FALSE FALSE FALSE No I want to be able to do: 1) Setting

python bindings for R
Hello, my group is investigating the development of a statistical program in support of some other work we are doing. Stats is not really our area of expertise and we would like to leverage existing code where possible. From your site, I have gathered that R is pretty capable and well used. We are currently developing in python and targetting a primarily windows environment. We would like to

interrupted plots
Hello, I'm trying to plot simple data containing numbers/year. I use plot(numbers~year, type="l"), but the problem is that there is no data for several years. S I would like the line to be interrupted for the period without data, and then continue afterwards. How can I do this ? Also, I've been using par(new=TRUE) to put two curves (same years, different numbers) on the same

list of all objects - just being curious
Hello all, to obtain a list of all objects in all search paths, I've found the following to work: > biglist <- sapply(1:length(search()), objects) This more obvious one, however, does not work: > biglist <- sapply(search(), objects) Error in pos.to.env(pos) : invalid argument Still, search() gives [1] ".GlobalEnv" "package:ctest" "Autoloads"

R: plotting values on graphics
Everyone, I have an array of integer values which are located on a uniform 2-D grid. I want to plot the integer values at the node locations. The closest I have come is with the following code: for (i in 1:ny) { for (j in 1:nx) { ncell <- nx*(i - 1) + j ch <- as.character(ncount[ncell]) tx <- j*dx - dx/2 ty <- ny*dy - (i-1)*dy - dy/2 points(tx, ty, pch = ch, col =

outer
Dear r-plus users, i would like to use outer in the following case outer(x,y,FUN="fun") i suppose that my function fun is of the following form: fun<-function(x,y) { if(y>x) return(x+y) if(y<=x) return(0) } My problem is that the command outer(x,y,FUN="fun") return me a null matrix instead of an upper triangular matrix. Is somebody have a solution ? Thanks for your

R 1.1 congrat; undocumented behaviour of recordPlot
Hello, first, I'd like to congratulate the core team to the new R version 1.1. I think it's a great update, with glimpses into an even greater future (tcltk!). While playing around with the new functions (on Win 95), I found the following: As the documentation states, when I generate a plot and save it with recordPlot, I can regenerate it by printing the variable: > plot(1:10) >

html documentation bug in: help(par), 'las'
Currently (R-1.4.1 as well as R-devel, according to http://stat.ethz.ch/R-alpha/R-devel/library/base/html/par.html), the html version of help(par) shows [...] lab A numerical vector of the form c(x, y, len) which modifies the way that axes are annotated. The values of x and y give the (approximate) number of tickmarks on the x and y axes and len specifies the label size. The default

How to create a data.frame "like" another, but longer?
Hello, does anyone know of a quick way to create a data frame "like" another, but with more rows? What I'd like to do is this: if mydata is a data.frame like a b c 1 TRUE yes 2 FALSE no 3 TRUE yes I'd like to get mydata2 with the same column names and column types, but without the values and with more rows. All I could think of was to manually do

Type III Sums of Squares?
Hello, I'd like to propose an extension to the function summary.aov. In Splus (2000, I don't know about other versions), summary.aov allows a parameter ssType to be set to 1 or 3 (defaults to 1) to choose the type of Sums of Squares. I know I can get Type III SS in R with drop1(model), but including the functionality into summary.aov would, in my opinion, - yield a more usable table

Post hoc tests
This is only partly an R question, but this seems a good place to ask. Like many, if not most, statistics programs, R has no post hoc tests for Kruskal Wallis or Friedman, and as far as I can make out they are not available in any of the R packages. I would be grateful if someone could point me in the right direction if I am wrong. As I said this is not uncommon. Parametric Anova procedures

Estimating Weibull Distribution Parameters - very basic question
Hello, is there a quick way of estimating Weibull parameters for some data points that are assumed to be Weibull-distributed? I guess I'm just too lazy to set up a Maximum-Likelihood estimation... ...but maybe there is a simpler way?
