hist(rbinom(1000,10,0.5),col=2,xlim=c(0,10),ylim=c(0,300)) gives a histogram with "touching bars" hist(rbinom(100000,10,0.5),col=2,xlim=c(0,10),ylim=c(0,30000)) gives a histogram with space between the bars. is there a way to control the space betweent he bars easily? -- Erich Neuwirth, Computer Supported Didactics Working Group Visit our SunSITE at http://sunsite.univie.ac.at

typeof applied to a factor always seems to return "integer", independently of the type of the levels. This has a strange side effect. When a variable is "imported" into a data frame, its type changes. character variables automatically are converted to factors when imported into data frames. Here is an example: > v1<-1:3 >

Hi, I'm trying to combine a VBA macro and a R package. I've installed the R-(D)COM and the R-excel interface by Neuwirth. They seem to work both. However I would like to display the r-generated data in an Excel sheet as an array but I don't manage. Here is an example of my source: Sub doR() Call RInterface.StartRServer Call RInterface.RRun("library(mdnn)") Call

In some languages there is a function gensym() which returns a new unique name (in the current environment). This is quite helpful when one has to do temporary assignments. I could not find such a function in R.

R 1.4.0 is now sinking into feature freeze, and we'd like some help testing it under Windows. Duncan Murdoch and Uwe Ligges have already volunteered. I've put a copy of SetupR140.exe at http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/bdr/RWin Also in that directory is a file TESTING suggesting some tests, not all of which have been run on this build. As the graphics internals have been changed a lot

Full_Name: Hannu Kahra Version: 1.0.0 OS: Windows Submission from: (NULL) (153.1.50.127) x1 <- lag(x, k=1) returns the original series x. The time series is not shiftet at all. Only the time is shiftet: for x1 new start = old start -1 and new end = old end -1. When I run, e.g. lm(x~x1) the result is not what I expect. Both x and x1 are time series. Is this a bug or am I forgetting something?

I would like to write a stand-alone application (in C) using R's statistical and graphical capabilities. To make it more challenging I would have to do it using Windows 2000 platform. I seem to remember that R can be compiled into a library of subroutines and linked to an external program. Is this true or is my memory playing tricks on me? I scanned the FAQs and the "extensions"

Thanks David first. Probably, David misunderstood my points. source vector = (1,2) the length of the target vector = 3 My expected "complete" outputs should be: 111, 112, 121, 122, 211, 212, 221, 222. sample(c(1,2),3,replace=TRUE) just gives me one "randomly sampled" combination at a time. However, I need the whole list displayed above at a time. Rui
