There was an inquiry on this list recently about plotting some simple error bars on a graph. Now Splus has a function (error.bar --- originally written by Sue Clancy of DMS, CSIRO, I believe) to do this job virtually at the touch of a key. (Well a few keys. :-) ) The error.bar function is written completely in raw S --- no calls to ``.Internal'' or anything like that. So it would be

The source of the incompatibility: In S-PLUS 6.2: > methods("unique") splus splus menu splus "unique.data.frame" "unique.default" "unique.name" "unique.rowcol.names" In R-1.9.1: > methods("unique") [1] unique.array unique.data.frame unique.default unique.matrix

Hi all, I just cannot think of how to do it: I want to take the first variable (column) of a data frame and regress it against all other variables. bla <- function (dat) { reg <- lm(whateverthefirstofthevariablenamesis ~., data=dat) return(reg) } What kind of function do I have to take instead of the whateverthefirstofthevariablenamesis, eval(), substitute(), get(), ... to

I was looking for an R function to turn a matrix into a LaTeX table; did an R site search using Jon Barron's machine and turned up the latex() function in the Hmisc package. But the Hmisc package is an Splus package, and appears not to be available for R --- there is no hint of it in the list of contributed packages on CRAN. I had a look at the Hmisc package (via statlib) and there was no

Is there any way to do this (test for the existence of a file) in R? In Splus (3.4) I can do unix(paste("test -r", fnm), output = F) where ``fnm'' is a character string giving the pathname of the file. This returns 0 if the file exists and 256 if it doesn't. I thought in R to do something like system(paste("test -r", fnm), intern =T) but this

I'd just like to put in my two bob's worth: The ***only*** thing for which I prefer SAS to R/Splus, but it's a very important thing, is the analysis of mixed linear models. One can do the same analyses in both languages. The difference is that the SAS syntax for specifying such a model, and its output, is comprehensible to the human mind, which is what I'm equipped with. The

Full_Name: Ernesto Jardim Version: 1.2.2 OS: SuSE Linux 6.4 Submission from: (NULL) (193.137.98.92) I wanted to import an array, dim=c(28,12,17), from splus into R.On splus I did dump(c("array"),file="dump.out) I checked and Splus could source it. Than, in R I tryied to source it with: source("dump.out") and got and error message: > source("dump.out")

I've looked through the FAQ and can't find anything about this. I'm working on a Sun machine, running Solaris 2.7. I'm a new R-user; have been using Splus for millenia, and finally decided it was time I got going with R. So I downloaded R, installed it, fiddled about a bit, and found that command-line editing was absent. Scrounging through the documentation some more, I saw it

We've been working on making it easier to write packages that work in both R and Splus. One issue is that R and Splus use different internal representations of integers and this makes a difference on their 64-bit versions: R uses ints (32 bits on 32-bit and 64-bit versions of R) and Splus uses longs (32 bits on 32-bit Splus and 64 bits on 64-bit Splus). The obvious ways to deal with the

Hello R/Splus users.. I am posting in R discussion group in hope of wider response compared to what I received from Splus user groups.... Was wondering if there is any function available in Splus 8.2 that is equivalent to "reshape" of R? Below is a sample dataset. Size [both rows and columns) of the dataset may vary X1 Y1 Y2 Y3 0.25 40 38 22 0.5 44 41

Hi All, I just used "dump" on Splus to transfer a pile of survival objects from Splus 3.4 on Solaris 7 to R 0.63.3 on Intel. The only trick is that survival objects contain an element holding the original call that generated the object. When Splus writes these out, it doesn't mark them in any way, so when R tries to read them in, it ends up trying to reevaluate the call. Not

Hi, Is there any difference in the gam() function in R and Splus? I just tried to do an Ace Plot (plotting the result of the gam() ) on a dataset. R gave me four (the data set has one response and four explanatory variables) ace plot with perfectly straight lines. I kind of felt that it is highly unlikely, so I tried it in Splus. Using the exact commands Splus gave me four completely

Hello! I would like to be able to read in list data objects in R/S created in R/S. (Ie R->S or S->R.) I have tried 'dput' and 'dump' in S, but neither of the created files could be read into R (with 'dget' nor 'source'). Is there any way that I can save a list object in S that can be read into R? Sincerely, Zachary Skrivanek, PhD Research Scientist

Hi I have a source file in Splus that fails in R as I am using the Splus function compare(). compare( ii * 1e9,f ) where ii is a single variable and f is a vector of length 146 R returns with no function error Can anyone inform me how I can do this in R thanks in advance Bob Kelly [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

hi there, anybody knows how to import data into R from splus directly? I have a huge amount of data in splus format, which will cost forever for me to transform the data back to ascii or something else and then read them into R. thanks a lot. ximing -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-help mailing list -- Read

Hi all I have a couple of obscure questions for R/Splus experts (which unfortunately isn't me!) I am trying to compute Bayes Factors using some Splus code of Raftery in Gilks et al (1996). Only problem is 1) R doesn't seem to have a robust covariance (cov.mve) which I suspect I need rather than a non-robust classical estimate 2) Splus has cov.mve BUT dgamma in Splus doesn't have a

Hello everyone, I was wondering if anyone knows how to convert the Splus mapproject( ) function for use in R, I would greatly appreciate your help. I am using the following system, R Version 1.6.1 (2002-11-01) for SunOS 5.5 and Splus Version 5.1 Release 1 for Sun SPARC, SunOS 5.5. Thanks, Helen

Hello, I am looking for an explanation and/or fix for a discrepancy in the behaviour of the R lm.influence() function [ version R 1.5.0 (2002-04-29) ] and the same function in Splus [ Splus version 5.1 release 1, running on SGI IRIX 6.2]. The discrepancy is of concern because I am migrating some Splus scripts to R and need to ensure consistency of results. Specifically, when I fit a glm()

Hi For bureaucratic reasons beyond my control I need to rewrite an R function (for producing operating characteristic curves) as an Splus function ( version 6 , windows XP ). The R function makes extensive use of the fact that the student's t distribution function pt() has a non-centrality parameter built in ... sadly that parameter is not present in the Splus pt() function .
