Dear All, I have two distributions which I don't their nature. I want to check whether they come from the same distribution. I know that I can use KS test however the standart function ks.test applies only the ks test for testing the difference of two samples (non-parametric). By the way the distribution are of Euclidean distances. One of observed and the other of shuffled data. Thanks, Ron

Hi, Can anybody tell me how to open new a new window for plot()? Thanks. Minghua

Hi, is there anybody knowing a possibility to produce a legend (describing the color scheme) in an image plot in R. In S-Plus this works using image.legend. Thank's in advance.

Hi, If I have a CSV file which has several comments at the top, and the data start immediately after the line: @DATA Is it possible to use the scan() command to get the CSV data into R, by only reading the lines after @DATA? If so, how can I do it? Cheers, Kevin ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ /* Time is the greatest teacher, unfortunately it

Hello. I'm afraid that I'm missing something very obvious this afternoon... When I add a column to a data.frame (by assigning to a "new" column name a logical vector), I thought that I had (at least) 3 options to do so: R> j <- data.frame (x=1:2) R> j$y <- c(TRUE,FALSE) #assignment 1 R> str(j) `data.frame': 2 obs. of 2 variables: $ x: int 1 2 $ y: logi

Hi, Thank you for the tip. I tried to re-intall R from Debian "stable", in which R's version is 1.4.0. And the installation of "mvtnorm" works. I then re-installed R yet again from Debian "unstable" (woody), in which R's version is 1.5.1. The installation of "mvtnorm" fails again with the same error message. Another package that failed with the

Dear all, Are there functions or packages in R that can handle interval-censored data? I have looked in various packages (such as survival5 or event), but it seems that only right-censored data can be analysed. More generally, are there methods to analyse both interval-censored observations and right-censored observations in the same data set? Thanks in advance. Emmanuel Paradis

I've created a bunch of postscript trees (post.rpart), which I subsequently edit in Adobe Acrobat 4.05 (I need additional labelling that isn't easy to add with R). After editing the labels and annotations using Acrobat, I then export the file to Adobe's .eps format so I can insert the picture into a Microsoft Word 2000 document. The .pdf file distilled from the .ps file is

Hello again! thanks to all who helped with overlay plots - v. easy in the end. Anyway, another new(ba)bee type question - the gurus will cringe I'm sure! Q. simple R function mm <- function (u) { x <- u$GDP x m <- mean(x) m } When the function is called the vector "x" does not get printed from within the function, but the mean value "m" does, why? I

In a recent post, I reported that help.start worked with Mozilla, although it had not worked before. I now have discovered the difference. I'm using RH Linux 7.1 and Mozilla 0.9.5 and R 1.3.1. When I tried it before, I had use ESS to start R. If I run R without ESS, help.start() will start the browser (Mozilla), but help(apply), for example, will produce help in ESS but not in the browser.

Dear R users, I ran into this curious problem: > d <- rnorm(100) > d.density <- density(d) > sum( d.density$x * d.density$y) [1] 2.517502 Admittedly the method of computing the mass under the density curve at line 3 is crude. But 2.5 is pretty far from 1, the value it should be. I tried a few other dataset and got similar result. Am I missing something obvious? Or is the return

Full_Name: M. Edward Borasky Version: 1.2.2 OS: both Windows 2000 and Red Hat Linux 7.1 Submission from: (NULL) (208.130.245.188) According to the R language manual, "%" is the modulus operator. However, on both Windows and Linux, I get a syntax error when I type records <- 100000 records % 1000 I tried wrapping the operands with "as.integer ()" but that didn't help

Hi, I have a nicely printed table of results generated by R's > print(myresult) where myresult is a "data frame". I am trying to put this table into a powerpoint slide for presentation without re-typing and re-formating, i.e., present it as it is in the R window. This saves time when there are a lot of tables to be presented. I tried > sink("myresult.txt") >

Hi, This is more a statistics question rather than R question. But I thought people on this list may have some pointers. MY question is like the following: I would like to have a robust regression line. The data I have are mostly clustered around a small range. So the regression line tend to be influenced strongly by outlier points (with large cook's distance). From the application 's

Hi all, Although R seems to have jpeg() and png() functions that converts data into jpeg and png formated files, it doesn't have functions the other way around. Does one of R contributed packages have gif, jpeg and png image readers?

Dear R experts, Does RMySQL package handle Blob datatype in a MySQL database? Blob can represent an image, a sound or some other large and complex binary objects. In an article published by R-database special interest group, named "A common database interface (DBI)" (updated June 2003), it's mentioned in "open issues and limitations" that "We need to carefully plan

As a user of only R, I don't use much of the potential of ESS and Emacs. Without entering a religious feud, is there any reason I should use XEmacs rather than my current GNU Emacs? (I looked on the XEmacs site, but I didn't understand the programming issues they were talking about (over my head).) Martin Henry H.

Dear R-users, Thanks to Friedrich Leisch, my document "R pour les d?butants" is available on CRAN in the contributed documentation section: http://cran.r-project.org/doc/contrib/Rdebuts.pdf.
