similar to: drawing ellipses

Dear S-PLUS/R users: Do you know any default function or a user contributed function that can draw an ellipse with given axes and origin? Thanks for any help.

Dear list, I am trying to program semi-random movement within a circle, with no particles leaving the circle. I would like them to bounce back when they come to close to the wall, but I don't seem to be able to get this right. Would somebody kindly give me a hint ? This is my code so far, the particle starts at some point and moves towards the wall, but I don't get the "bouncing

Hi, I have two problem with a for looping using R Version 2.1.1 (2005-06-20) on a Debian Linux Testing. The first problem: warnings messages Look: > xcoord <- 5 > ycoord <- 5 > indice <- 1 > for(i in c(1:5)) {indice <- indice+1;xcoord[indice] <- xcoord+i; ycoord[indice] <- ycoord } Warning messages: 1: number of items to replace is not a multiple of replacement

Hello R Community, I have imported a dataset which contain X Y coordinates and would like to recreate a shape file after some data analysis. What i have done is to import some taxlot data and join them based on some criteria. I want to check to see how well the joining went by reviewing the results in GIS. A couple things. I cant seem to import a shape file correctly using the maptools

Hi everyone! I have 100 tables of the form: XCOORD,YCOORD,OBSERVATION 27.47500,42.52641,177 27.48788,42.52641,177 27.50075,42.52641,179 27.51362,42.52641,178 27.52650,42.52641,180 27.53937,42.52641,178 27.55225,42.52641,181 27.56512,42.52641,177 27.57800,42.52641,181 27.59087,42.52641,181 27.60375,42.52641,180 27.61662,42.52641,181 ..., ..., ... with approximately 1000000 observations for each.

Hello, I've a problem for setting graphical parameters in perspective plot (function persp). I wonder if it's possible to add some text (function text) on an existing persp plot USING the axis coordinates. In fact I want to add some text on a persp plot according to x coordinates. I've tried to use text(xcoord,ycoord, label="toto") but the toto text doesn't appear at

Hi everyone,I need you all help. I want to create few image in same diagram. For example, I wan draw two ellipse in same diagram. plot(ellipsePoints(2,5, alpha = 60), asp=1) and plot(ellipsePoints(2,5, alpha = 30), asp=1) How to display both ellipse together? both is different in angle. Thank you. -- Hemavathi Ramulu [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear all,  Who will bail me out. Iam using R with S-Splancs. Anytime i typed in the syntex, an error will appear eg setwd("C:\\TEMP) >dat <- read.table(cheshire_fmd.cvs",header=TRUE, sep=",") > dat.<-read.table(''chesire_fmd.cvs'',header=TRUE,sep='',) Error: unexpected symbol in "dat.<-read.table(''chesire_fmd.cvs" >

Hello R-users, I have code that gives me the important variables from an analysis. I need to input these variables into a different analysis. To do this, I need to modify them slightly... 1) remove all numbers at the end of the variables, 2) remove all periods. I tried to do it with the awkward code below. It works to remove all the numbers, but when I try to remove the period everything

I am working on creating an R package for doing fire department analysis and am trying to create a function that can display emergency incident densities. The following code sort of does the trick, but I need a display that shows the number of incidents per square mile. I believe the code below shows incidents per square unit (in this case, degrees lat/long). To solve this problem, I believe

Hello everybody, I'm testing the randomForest package in order to do some simulations and I get some trouble with the prediction of new values. The random forest computation is fine but each time I try to predict values with the newly created object, I get an error message. I thought I was because NA values in the dataframe, but I cleaned them and still got the same error. What am I

Hello, I have been following the thread dated Monday, October 9, 2006 when Kamila Naxerova asked a question about plotting elliptical shapes. Can you explain the equations for X and Y. I believe they used the parametric form of x and y (x=r cos(theta), y=r sin(theta). I don't know what r is here ? Can you explain 1)the origin of these equations and 2) what is r? Sincerely, Mary A. Marion

Hi, I'm using R to plot some data and associated linear models, and I was wondering if there was a parameter to fix the line width in the graphs (for axis, lines, ...) because I explored the associated help pages and could not find it.

Is there an option to draw concentration ellipses in biplots ? It seems really nice to summarize large number of points of each group. Cheers../ Murli

I want to do kernel smoothing on the standardised mortality rates at specified location(x-y coordinates) and be able to produce contour map. I've tried to use the package called fields in R (function smooth.2d) but the problem is I get negative results after smoothing and I do not understand why? Your contributions will be highly appreciated or if there is any package that can do this I

hello, sorry for posting what may be a simple question: i do have a matrix of coordinates (positional judgments, see below) and now want to calculate and plot the corresponding error ellipse. can anyone help me with the exact steps/syntax? > xyDat X Y 1 -0.49 -2.13 2 0.91 0.48 3 0.20 -2.80 4 -0.76 -3.23 5 -0.36 2.50 6 1.38 1.24 7

I have empirical Bayes estimates for slopes and intercepts for a number of subjects and I would like to plot the slopes and intercepts with confidence ellipses. These ellipses would be based on the confidence intervals for the slope and intercepts (forming the major and minor axis of each ellipse), and the correlation in the slope and intercepts.

Dear members, I'm not very used with Unix systems, but I got an old Sun/UltraSparc workstation running Solaris 2.5.1 and I tried to install R on it to able able to do some batch R processing while working on my pc.

Dear list, Here's a little problem I already solved with my own coding style, but I feel there is a more efficient and cleaner way to write it, but had no success finding the "clever" solution. I want to produce a factor from a subset of the combination of two vectors. I have the vectors a et b in a data-frame : > df <- expand.grid(a=c(0, 5, 10, 25, 50), b=c(0, 25, 50,
