similar to: running R from Perl

Greetings- I have a strange problem displaying a graph from R (1.3.1, linux) in a LaTeX document of documentclass seminar. I'm using graphicx to include the file: \usepackage{graphicx} ... \resizebox{\textwidth}{\textheight}{\includegraphics{crime.eps}} When I do this, the entire slide (including the page number) is rotated 180 degrees. Any ideas why this happens? The graph was created

Greetings- I'm venturing into a new (for me) area of using R: some presentation graphics based on R data. I'd like to compare two distributions of ordinal variables in relatively small (N=203 and 207) subsets of an R dataset. I can get a reasonably good picture of the distributions' differences with: x11() plot(table(hcd.df$auth.sum[hcd.df$datecat==1]),

Hello! Can I use DBM databases (as they are used in Perl) for the import of large datasets in R? Thanks in advance for your help, Petra Steiner - --------------------------------------------------- Petra Steiner Arbeitsbereich Linguistik Universitaet Muenster Huefferstrasse 27 48149 Muenster

I'd like to produce a series of simple line graphs for my methods class that show the three questions used on a repeated survey to make up a particular index. The data frame is: > efficacy.df year complicated havesay dontcare 1 1952 71 68 63 2 1954 NA NA NA 3 1956 64 71 71 4 1958 NA NA NA 5 1960

Greetings- Running R 2.4.0 under Debian Linux, I am getting a memory error trying to read a very large file: > library(foreign) > oldgrades.df <- read.spss('Individual grades with AI (Nov 7 2006).sav',to.data.frame=TRUE) Error: cannot allocate vector of size 10826 Kb This file is, granted, quite large: aperrin at perrin:/data0/grading$ ls -l total 630304 -r-xr-xr-x 1 aperrin

Greetings- I have some data on which I need to do something like a Hierarchical Linear Model (please bear with me, I'm only learning the technique so I don't know yet if my language is correct). Essentially I'm analyzing data at two levels simultaneously; data are about individuals an organizations of which they are members. Can someone point me toward an appropriate package in R?

Hi can anyone recommend a perl module that I can use to run R? Stephen

I'm asking on this list because the question will be more easily understood than on a Perl list. Lots of talented people using R also know how to use Perl, so it's easier to ask them. Running a Perl script with the -d switch can do some pretty neat things, but as far as I can tell, every line has to be done individually. Is there a way to specify where to stop in the way browser() does

Greetings. I've been experimenting with some algorithms for document classification (specifically, a Naive Bayes classifier and a kNN classifier) and I would now like to calculate some inter-rater reliability scores. I have the data in a PostgreSQL database, such that for each document, each measure (there are 9) has three variables: ap_(measure), nb_(measure), and knn_(measure). ap is me

I use RODBC and RpgSQL quite a lot to access files stored in another machine under PostgreSQL. Since I am now using files which do not fit into R's memory, I would like to take random samples. What I would like is to issue a query such as SELECT * FROM file WHERE runif > 0.9 with "runif" being a uniformly distributed random number, generated on the fly; but I cannot

After upgrading to 1.7.0 under debian linux, I can't get e1071 working properly. The first problem I had was that g++-3.0 was the standard compiler but wasn't installed, so I installed it. e1071 then installed correctly, but I get the following: aperrin at perrin:~/afshome/papers/authoritarian/R$ R R : Copyright 2003, The R Development Core Team Version 1.7.0 (2003-04-16) R is free

R-users -- I would like to make a single vector out of something like the following: y0 <- rep(0,100) y1 <- rep(1,20) and stack them one on top of the other to a vector y with length 120.

Is there a "canned" function in R for finding the standard error of the mean? I have tried > sem <- function(x) c(mean =mean(x), + SEM = stdev(x)/sqrt(length(x))) > sem(pnet.lai) Error in sem(pnet.lai) : couldn't find function "stdev" It looks like there is no stdev function in R Thanks, Kirk Kirk R.

Sorry if this is obvious, but my S skills aren't great and I haven't been able to find it documented anywhere. I want to write a new function for use with lme objects; the function will simply calculate an ICC (aka "rho") for each level of a mixed-effects model. What I need for this is pretty simple: (c(var1..varn, residual)) / sum(c(var1..varn, residual)) where var1..varn

Hello All, Just wondering if anyone may have a quick fix to our dilemma here. I work for a company called HGS (Human Genome Sciences), we are in the pharmaceutical business. Everything we do has to be tested and re-tested to ensure we are providing the most accurate form of data. On top of that everything is validated and regulated by FDA. What this means is every application on a validated

Greetings- An odd situation has developed. I use the following code to create .eps files of two very similar graphs: postscript(file='resources.bygt.eps', onefile=FALSE, horizontal=TRUE) barplot(resources.bygt.matrix, beside = TRUE, legend.text=c('narrative','doubt'),

A while ago I asked about data management approaches in R. I was asked by several people to post a summary of the responses and alas I am just getting around to doing it. I received several comments, both on and off list. Below is a compilation of these responses. Hope this is as helpful to others as it was to me. Best, Brett 1.

Dear R-users, I use R to run spatial stuff and it takes up a lot of ram. Runs can take hours or days. I am thinking of getting a new desktop. Can R take advantage of the dual-core system? I have a dual-core computer at work. But it seems that right now R is using only one processor. The new computers feature quad core with 3GB of RAM. Can R take advantage of the 4 chips? Or am I better off

Please forgive my ignorance on grapics. I'm trying to make a relatively simple plot with two line plots, same axes, by mean over a series of dates. I can make the plot well like this: plot(sort(tapply(first.anti.auth.sum,date,mean), partial=1), type="l", col="yellow",ylim=c(0,2.0)) par(new=TRUE) plot(sort(tapply(first.pro.auth.sum,date,mean), partial=1),
