Hi, I have submitted a package to CRAN in ftp://ftp.tuwien.ac.at/incoming/pastecs_1.0.tar.gz. The R extension manual advises to send a mail to cran at ci.tuwien.ac.at about it, but it fails. I have also tried WWWadmin at ci.tuwien.ac.at. Are these email adresses still valid? Best, Philippe Grosjean ...........]<(({?<...............<?}))><............................... ) ) ) )

Hi all, I have a bit of a newbie question here that I hope y'all can help with. I've run a cluster analysis using hclust on about 500 objects (using R1.3 under Win 2000). The problem is that the tips of the dendrogram are so close together on the plot that the labels overlap and are unreadable. I've used "cex" to reduce the label sizes but this isn't sufficient with so

Hello all, Since I got no answer to my first mail, I suspect I did not formulate my question adequately, so I try again. In R, one can debug or trace a function 'foo' with debug(foo) or trace(foo), respectively. This leads to a special treatment of the function 'foo' until one enter undebug(foo) or untrace(foo). I would like to know if there is a convenient way to know at any

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Is it possible to create a time series from existing data frame? One column of that frame contains dates (like "01/01/01") and the second one the values.

Hi, Under Windows, I am exporting graphs from R (in metafile -emf- format), and want to combine them using a graphic package. It happens that the background of the graph is represented by a filled rectangle (with the color given by bg=...). This is to be expected. However, I find no options to disable this and produce a graph with transparent background. Does such an option exist? If not, then

Hi there, I've got this vector: -84 -87 -90 -90 -89 -86 NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA -96 -99 -100 -99 -96 -92 -89 -87 -87 -88 -90 -92 -94 -95 -96 -97 -97 -97 -96 -95 Is there a function in R which replaces the NAs with "interpolated" values between -86 and -96? Thanks, Sven

Dear R and S users, I've been working on fitting finite mixture of negative exponential distributions using maximum likelihood based on the example given in MASS. So far I had much success in fitting two components. The problem started when I tried to extend the procedure to fit three components. More specifically, likelihood = sum( ln(c1*exp(-x/lambda1)/lambda1 + c2*exp(-x/lambda2)/lambda2

Hi, I need help regarding estimating a linear model where restrictions are imposed on the coefficients. An example is as follows: Y_{t+2}=a1Y_{t+1} + a2 Y_t + b x_t + e_t restriction a1+ a2 =1 Is there a function or a package that can estimate the coefficient of a model like this? I want to estimate the coefficients rather than test them. Thank you for your help Ahmad Abu Hammour --------------

Both the commands using rep() below were expected to produce 8 twos, but only the second did. x <- rep(2,40*(1-0.8)) length(x) y <- rep(2,40*0.2) length(y)

Let A be a m by n matrix and b a length n vector. What is the fastest vectorized code for doing for(j in 1:n) A[, j] <- A[, j]/b[j] ? solution 1: t(t(A)/b) solution 2: B <- matrix( rep(b, m), byrow=T, nrow=m ) A/B anything else? I have a program that uses this kind of operation million of times and I appreciate your input. Thanks. Jason Liao ===== Jason G. Liao Department of

Dear R-helpers, I have 4-dimensional atmospheric data (x,y,z,t), which I want to analyse on spatio-temporal diversities. As far as I understand there only exists the possibility to construct time series as two-dimensional matrices (mts). For the moment, I hold it in different objects: 1. a four-dimensional array for the spatial related analyses 2. a two-dimensional mts timeserie, which was

Hi R-users, I am a newbie to R. I worked on multivariate tools(mva package)for windows98 the output are all displayed in console.Is it possible to export the results in to HTML format and also to get report quality output in neat tabulated format. I tried for in the R imports and Exports manual but not satisfactory.There is detailed instruction importing from various formats

Thorsten is right. There is a direct formula for computing the Moore-Penrose inverse using the singular value composition of a matrix. This is incorporated in the following: mpinv <- function(A, eps = 1e-13) { s <- svd(A) e <- s$d e[e > eps] <- 1/e[e > eps] return(s$v %*% diag(e) %*% t(s$u)) } Hope it helps. Dietrich

Dear all, I don't know the historical reason why the char '_' was defined in the R language grammar as a synonyme of the assignment <-, anyway the R documentation dosen't recommand its usage. Well, this is a real "incompatibility issue" each time we need to interface R with other language/systems, notably with database systems. Recall that, in perhaps all

This is a recurrent question but could not find the answer in the documentation. I want to build a dll for windows from a fortran program to be loaded with dyn.load. I can do it easily for linux with: g77 -shared -o foo.dll foo.f The g77 compiler (mingw-1.01) for windows does not recognise the -shared option. In windows the Writing extensions manual tells to use Rcmd SHLIB but I can't

Hi, I'm new to R, and trying to map stuff I knew how to do in Matlab to R. For instances, in matlab, sum(x) gave the column sums of matrix(/vector) x. In R it just gives the sum of all the elements, regardless of their form (vector or matrix). Is there a simple way to return a vector of column sums for a matrix? Also, in Matlab binary operators exist for concatenating a matrix onto the end or

There is probably an elegant and efficient way to do this -- perhaps already implemented, and some of you knows it. Myself, I'm getting stuck in long loops ... Here is the question: I have a long (80,000 + obs) binary time series. For each of its elements I'd like to compute and save in a vector "the number of steps 'til the first switch of state happens". For example,
