Hi to R developers. In the "Details:" section of "?levels", it would be nice including the following sentence, taken from a reply from Brian Ripley: If you set two levels to be the same label, they get merged. Granted, the "Examples:" section does have a terse comment and examples from which users may imply this behaviour. Yet, the documentation would be

I?m new to R so maybe this issue has been asked before and I still could not read the complete set of past messages sent to the list. I found a weird behabiour that I will explain with a simple example. Lets consider the following block of commands: > x <- diag(c(1,4,10)) > x [,1] [,2] [,3] [1,] 1 0 0 [2,] 0 4 0 [3,] 0 0 10 > invx <- x^-1 > invx

Hello, How do you tell how much of your l2arc is populated? I''ve been looking for a while now, can''t seem to find it. Must be easy, as this blog entry shows it over time: http://blogs.sun.com/brendan/entry/l2arc_screenshots And follow up, can you tell how much of each data set is in the arc or l2arc? -- This message posted from opensolaris.org

I have a data frame containing children, with variables 'year' = birth year, and 'm.id' = mother's id number. Let's assume that all the births of each mother is represented in the data frame. Now I want to create a subset of this data frame containing all children, whose mother's first birth was in the year 1816 or later. This seems to work: mid <-

Following up to some extent on Friday's discussion regarding the 'validation' of R, could I ask the list group's opinion on possible advantages of R over Splus from a pharma/devices perspective? I wish to exclude the obvious price difference, which doesn’t seem to carry as much weight as I would have thought. Besides, I have noticed many former Splus users gravitating towards R,

Hi R-Help! My question: I have lifetime/failure data of machines with different stress levels and i think an weibull/extreme value distribution would fit this data. So I did: model1 <- survreg(Surv(lfailure)~stress,data=steel,dist="extreme") (where lfailure=log(failure)) Now I would like to do a likelihood ratio test to test the hypothesis H0: location parameters of the

Hello. I have a Solaris 11/11 x86 box (which I migrated from SolEx 11/10 a couple of weeks ago). Without no obvious reason (at least for me), after an uptime of 1 to 2 days (observed 3 times now) Solaris sets arc_no_grow to 1 and then never sets it back to 0. ARC is being shrunk to less than 1 GB -- needless to say that performance is terrible. There is not much load on this system. Memory

Hi, I was wondering if someone can help me interpret the results of running weibreg.

I'm looking for a Windows distribution of TeX that works with R, after a few years' absence from Windows. On Duncan Murdoch's Rtools page fptex is still recommended, but it turns out that fptex is "defunct" as of May 2005, see http://www.metz.supelec.fr/~popineau/xemtex-7.html So, what is suggested? TUG (tug.org) recommends something called proTeXt, which is said to be

In the first line, use the dist function, found in library mva, to get the distance between each pair of rows. From this calculate an incidence matrix for which element i,j is true if row i in dat equals row j in dat (and false elsewhere). In the second line, for each row calculate the indices of the matching rows and take the minimum of those as the key. incid <-

When reading an spss file, I get the following message: Warning message: ../totmorH.sav: Unrecognized record type 7, subtype 13 encountered in system file. What does it mean? Do I have to worry? The result looks as expected. I do not have (easy) access to SPSS, so I cannot check exactly that I got what I should have. Thanks, G??ran And, I'm using R-2.0.1 on Debian testing (from source).

I will be giving a course in survival analysis using R (of course!) for people who know nothing about the subject (including R), but know basic statistics. I'm looking for a suitable course book. Therneau & Grambsch (2000) is an excellent book, but too much for this course. I need somthing more elementary. I have a vague memory saying that such books exist, but I cannot find any for the

The release of R-1.9.1 is scheduled for Monday, June 21. Automatic generation of daily alpha releases should start Monday, June 7 and switch to beta status on Monday, June 14. It would be good if package maintainers could get any planned changes done as soon as possible, and test their packages carefully against the alpha/beta releases. -- O__ ---- Peter Dalgaard Blegdamsvej 3
