I just updated rpart to the latest version (3.1.0). There are a number of changes between this and previous versions, and some of the code I've been using with earlier versions (e.g. 3.0.2) no longer work. Here is a simple illustration of a problem I'm having with xpred.rpart. iris.test.rpart<-rpart(iris$Species~., data=iris[,1:4], parms=list(prior=c(0.5,0.25, 0.25))) + ) >

I've created a bunch of postscript trees (post.rpart), which I subsequently edit in Adobe Acrobat 4.05 (I need additional labelling that isn't easy to add with R). After editing the labels and annotations using Acrobat, I then export the file to Adobe's .eps format so I can insert the picture into a Microsoft Word 2000 document. The .pdf file distilled from the .ps file is

Probably wrong group for this, but a quick question. I've just switched from emacs to Xemacs. In reinstalling ESS 5.1.19 I keep getting the following error when loading Xemacs: "Error in init file: Symbol's function definition is void: w32-using-nt" I've debugged the ess-site.el file, which is where the error originates from. The line causing the difficulty is:

What is the generally accepted way to put certain math symbols into plain text email? For example, how does one convey the "is exactly equal to", "is approximately equal to", and "delta" symbols in a standard text-based (e.g. Courier) font? Dr. Marc R.

Dear colleague, I'd like to compute linear discriminant analysis, using R. In the book Modern applied statistic with Splus (Venables & Ripley, p. 396), lda function is used. Could you tell me where I can find this function? At what site, can I download this library ? Thank for your help.

Hi, This is a very trivial question, and I do not know why I cannot remember the answer at all! How does one get the entire system information (which OS, R version....etc) using an R command?

I've rolled up R-1.4.1.tgz a short while ago. This is a patch upgrade, fixing the most important bugs that cropped up after the 1.4.0 release. A set of recommended packages which have been tested with R-1.4.1 has been bundled up. Binary distributions are expected to include these packages. You can get the files from the developer site ftp://cvs.r-project.org/pub/CRAN/src/base/R-1.4.1.tgz

QUESTION: how should I do a linear regression in which there are errors in x as well as y? SUPPLEMENT: I've seen folks approach this problem by computing eigenvectors of the covariance matrix, and that makes sense to me. But I'm wondering if this has a "pedigree" (i.e. if it makes sense to folks on this list, and if it's something that has been published, so I can refer to

I ran across this error the other day while using lm(). I confess that I haven't used it for awhile and haven't been tracking the changes between versions of R. However, the piece of code below is a tiny modification of the example in the help file for "lm". I just separated the commands apart for clarity. A similar piece comes from the help file for

In my research area, researchers are very stingy about sharing data. In fact, they are frequently downright secretive about these morsels. Typically, we get fed a diet of summary statistics and the assurance that the data are *normal* without any necessary documentation that they really are. With that as background and assuming that the data really are normal, is there any way in R (or any

I've rolled up R-1.1.0.tgz a moment ago. You can get it from ftp://cvs.r-project.org/pub/CRAN/src/base/R-1.1.0.tgz or http://cvs.r-project.org/pub/CRAN/src/base/R-1.1.0.tgz or wait for it to be mirrored at a CRAN site near you within a day or two. There's also a version split in three for floppies if you prefer that. For the R Core Team, Peter D. Here's the relevant bit

Hello, Does logistic regression really provide better results than lda or qda ? (my purpose is not classification but highlighting of discriminant variables). If this is true, where could I get an R script performing stepwise logistic regression ? Thanks -- Daniel AMORESE Lab.

Running 1.4.1 (Windows) under Windows XP Pro. Have had no difficulty for several weeks since moving to the new OS. Today, while checking the behavior of my mouse, I loaded Rgui as usual. I then immediately tried to exit the program.

It may be my lack of unerstanding, but round() seems to me to give inconsistent results when rounding 5s as in the following examples? > round(1.45, 1) [1] 1.4 # OK > round(2.45, 1) [1] 2.5 # shouldn't this be 2.4? > round(1.05, 1) [1] 1.1 # 1.0 ? and signif(): > signif(2.445, 3) [1] 2.44 # OK > signif(3.445, 3) [1]
