dear all, This is a probably a silly question. If I type > grep("x",c("a.x" ,"b.x","a.xx"),value=TRUE) [1] "a.x" "b.x" "a.xx" Instead, I would like to obtain only "a.x" "b.x" How is it possible to get this result with grep()? many thanks for your attention, best, vito --

Dear R-users, I am trying to understand how the 'segmented'-package works to determine breakpoints and slopes of regression lines in broken-line regression models. However, I am not able to repeat the example on the "plant"-dataset, which was reported in the accompanying paper of the package. (V.M.R Muggeo, "Segmented: an R package to fit regression models with

Dear all, I would like to write a function like: myfun<-function(x,fn) {xx<-exp(x); x*fn(xx)} where fn is a symbolic description of any function with its argument to be specified. Therefore myfun(5,"2+0.3*y^2") should return 5*(2+0.3*exp(5)^2), myfun(5,"log(y)") should return 5*log(exp(5)) and so on. I tried with "expression" and others, but without success.

Dear all, It appears that MASS::polr() and Design::lrm() return the same point estimates but different st.errs when fitting proportional odds models, grade<-c(4,4,2,4,3,2,3,1,3,3,2,2,3,3,2,4,2,4,5,2,1,4,1,2,5,3,4,2,2,1) score<-c(525,533,545,582,581,576,572,609,559,543,576,525,574,582,574,471,595, 557,557,584,599,517,649,584,463,591,488,563,553,549) library(MASS) library(Design)

dear all, Is the following intentional? Am I missing anything in documentation? d<-data.frame(y=rnorm(10,5,.5),exp=rnorm(10), age=rnorm(10)) formula(lm(exp(y)~exp+age, data=d)) #--> exp(y) ~ exp + age formula(lm(exp(y)~., data=d)) #--> exp(y) ~ age variable 'exp' (maybe indicating "experience") is not included in the model. The same happens with 'log' (and

dear all, Given a matrix A, say, I would like to apply a bivariate function to each combination of its colums. That is if myfun<-function(x,y)cor(x,y) #computes simple correlation of two vectors x and y then the results should be something similar to cor(A). I tried with mapply, outer,...but without success Can anybody help me? many thanks in advance, vito

Dear all, I have the following (rather) strange problem.. For some reasons, I finally work with a variable whose name includes an R function, "a.log(z)", say. And that is a problem when I call it in a formula, for instance: > myname<-"a.log(z)" > dd<-data.frame("a.log(z)"=1:10,y=rnorm(10)) > o<-lm(y~1,data=dd) >

dear all, When I use all.vars(), I am interest in extracting only the variable names.. Here a simple example all.vars(as.formula(y~poly(x,k)+z)) returns [1] "y" "x" "k" "z" and I would like to obtain "y" "x" "z" Where is the trick? many thanks vito -- ==================================== Vito M.R.

Hi all, Could anybody recommend some easy-to-understand and example based notes/tutorials on how to use cubic splines to do filtering on multi-dimension data? I am confused by the 1-dimensional case, and more confused by multi-dimensional case. I found all the books suddenly become very abstract when it comes to this subject. They don't provide examples in R or Splus at all. Specifically,

Dear all, The help file for the generic function vcov states "Classes with methods for this function include: 'lm', 'glm', 'nls', 'lme', 'gls', 'coxph' and 'survreg' (the last two in package 'survival')." Since, I am not able to use vcov.coxph(), I am wondering whether I am missing something (as I suspect..) regards, vito

Hi, I have the following function that I want to apply to a list of 14 matrices (1536 x 170) of binary data: DRes <- function(x, nr = 10000, metric = "mixed", ...) { require(analogue) require(ade4) m <- c() for (i in 1:nr) { set.seed(i) x1 <- x[, sample(dimnames(x)[[2]], length(x[1,])/2)] x2 <- x[, !dimnames(x)[[2]] %in% dimnames(x1)[[2]]] d1 <-

Functions are first class objects, so some kind of collision is bound to happen if you do this... so don't. -- Sent from my phone. Please excuse my brevity.

dear all, I am stuck on the following problem. Give a string like ss1<- "z:f(5, a=3, b=4, c='1:4', d=2)" or ss2<- "f(5, a=3, b=4, c=\"1:4\", d=2)*z" I would like to remove all entries within parentheses.. Namely, I aim to obtain respectively "z:f()" or "f()*z" I played with sub() and gsub() but without success.. Thank you very

Dear all, Is there *any* reason explaining what I describe below? I have the following line myfun(x) If I type them directly in R (or copy/past), it works.. However if I type in R 2.6.1 > source("code.R") ##code.R includes the above line Error in inherits(x, "data.frame") : object "d" not found namely myfun() does not work correctly. In particular the

Sorry, I can't reproduce the example below even on the same machine. However, the following example produces the same error as NULL values in prior examples: > setClass("FOOCLASS", +????????? representation("list") + ) > ma = new("FOOCLASS", list(M=matrix(rnorm(300), 30,10))) > isS4(ma) [1] TRUE > data.frame(a=1:3) == ma Error in

Hello, I've noticed that SPLUS seems to have a function for evaluating derivative matrices of splines. I've found the R function that evaluates matrices from 'smooth.spline'; maybe someone has written something to do the same with smooth.basis? regards, s

dear all, I would like to get the lme call without fitting the relevant model. library(nlme) data(Orthodont) fm1 <- lme(distance ~ age, random=list(Subject=~age),data = Orthodont) To get fm1$call without fitting the model I use call(): my.cc<-call("lme.formula", fixed= distance ~ age, random = list(Subject = ~age)) However the two calls are not the same (apart from the data

hi all, In a simulation context I'm running in a for loop the arima() function for( i in 1:1000){ y<-arima.sim(....) out<-arima(y,....) ........ } Everything works, but after some cycle (10, say) I get error due to the particular y-values simulated.
