similar to: Subsetting simulation output

This is somewhat off-topic but I think that an answer may help other users of R-help. Thunderbird trys to help in the display of messages by "greying out" quoted text. However when reading r-help in digest form it gets thoroughly confused and usually ends up greying out the fresh text in a message. [I'm using Windows XP]. Does anyone know how to turn off this Thunderbird

In one saved workspace I have the results of a simulation experiment stored as an array "resarray". > dim(resarray) [1] 10 6 500 3 In another workspace I have a similar array from another run of the simulation. I want to combine the two arrays into a single array of dimensions 10, 6, 1000, 3 What's the best way to do this? Murray Jorgensen Dr Murray Jorgensen

Having just update to R 2.6.2 on my old Windows laptop I notice that the number of packages is growing exponentially and my usual approach of get-em-all may not be viable much longer. Has any thought been given to dividing "contributed" binaries into a recommended set, perhaps a couple of hundred, and the remained. That way one could install the recommended ones routinely and add in

G'day list! I'm thinking about programming likelihood and score intervals for generalized linear models in R based on the paper "On the computation of likelihood ratio and score test based confidence intervals in generalized linear models" by Juha Alho (1992) (Statistics in Medicine, 11, 923-930). Being lazy, I thought that I would ask if anyone else on the list has

I can ask my question using and example from Chapter 1 of Pinheiro & Bates. > # 1.4 An Analysis of Covariance Model > > OrthoFem <- Orthodont[ Orthodont$Sex == "Female", ] > fm1OrthF <- + lme( distance ~ age, data = OrthoFem, random = ~ 1 | Subject ) > summary( fm1OrthF ) Linear mixed-effects model fit by REML Data: OrthoFem AIC BIC

I am exploring the result of clustering a large multivariate data set into a number of groups, represented, say, by a factor G. I wrote a function to see how categorical variables vary between groups: > ddisp <- function(dvar) { + csqt <- chisq.test(G,dvar) + print(csqt$statistic) + print(csqt$observed) + print(round(csqt$expected)) + round(csqt$residuals) + } > > x

If rb.lm is an lm-object, I can access the error mean square as s2 <- sum(rb.lm$residuals^2)/rb.lm$df.residual This seems a bit like hard work for such a commonly wanted quantity. Is there a better way to do this?

I have just installed R 2.11.1 on my XP laptop. I like html help for browsing but text help for on-the-fly look-ups. I was a bit surprised when I was asked to choose between them during the installation. I chose text, thinking I could fix the html help later, which is what I am trying to do now. Now when I ask for html help my browser goes to 'http://-ip-number-/doc/html/index.html'

I want to interlace two vectors. This I can do: > x <- 1:4 > z <- x+0.5 > as.vector(t(cbind(x,z))) [1] 1.0 1.5 2.0 2.5 3.0 3.5 4.0 4.5 but this seems rather inelegant. Any suggestions?

Hi all, I have just found out that the machine learning group in our Faculty has a lot of spare capacity on their FreeNX servers. I do not know a lot about these beasts but I understand that they are a free version of something produced by a firm called "NoMachine". They are designed for executing parallel algorithms and I thought that they might be of use in a project of mine

I am introducing the scan() function to my class. Consider the following file (Scanexamp.Rnw ) \documentclass[12pt]{article} \begin{document} <<>>= height = scan() 64 62 66 65 62 69 72 72 70 part = scan(what = character(0)) "Soprano" "Soprano" "Soprano" "Alto" "Alto" "Tenor" "Tenor" "Bass"

I got a shock a few days ago when I accidentally visited www.r-project.com . I thought that the r-project site had been hacked until I realised my mistake. There is also a site www.r-project.net. Both of these sites appear to be Japanese. Does anyone know anything about them? I suppose that it is not unusual for names close to those of popular sites to be used. It is good that they use a

I found myself wanting to average a vector [vec] within each level of a factor [Fac], returning a vector of the same length as vec. After a while I realised that lm1 <- lm(vec ~ Fac) fitted(lm1) did what I want. But there must be another way to do this, and it would be good to be able to apply other functions than mean() in this way. Cheers, Murray -- Dr Murray Jorgensen

It is not uncommon to want to coarsen a factor by grouping levels together. I have found one way to do this in R: > sites [1] F A A D A A B F C F A D E E D C F A E D F C E D E F F D B C Levels: A B C D E F > regions <- list(I = c("A","B","C"), II = "D", III = c("E","F")) > library(Epi) > region <-

I assigned a class the first problem in Pinheiro & Bates, which uses the data set PBIB from the SASmixed package. I have recently downloaded 2.0.1 and its associated packages. On trying library(SASmixed) data(PBIB) library(nlme) plot(PBIB) I get a warning message Warning message: replacing previous import: coef in: namespaceImportFrom(self, asNamespace(ns)) after library(nlme) and a

I'm going to try my hand at converting some Fortran programs to R. Does anyone know of any good articles giving hints at such tasks? I will post a selective summary of my gleanings.
