(I'm reposting this message because the original has not appeared after about 2 days. Sorry if it shows up twice.) Hello. First, thanks to those who responded to my recent inquiry about using contour() over arbitrary (x,y) by mentioning the interp() function in the akima package. That worked nicely. Now for a new question: I would like to use a pair of prediction intervals to

Hi. The following statement works fine in R-win 1.8.0, but yields a syntax error in R-win 2.0.1 (and possibly in other versions after 1.8.0): plot(c(1,2),main=expression(a==b==c)) I note that the following workaround executes successfully in both versions of R... plot(c(1,2),main=expression(a*"="*b*"="*c)) ...but I don't really understand

Hello. Is it possible to set specify the font used by legend()? I would like to specify a fixed-width font so that I can line up parts of vertically stacked curve labels. For example, it would be nice if I could align the names, ages, and weights in the following three curve labels: Bob age=7 weight=100 Alexander age=13 weight=150 Susan age=20 weight=130 Is there perhaps a clever

Hi. Can anyone suggest a simple way to obtain in R a list of vector coordinates of the following form? The code below is Mathematica. In[5]:= Flatten[Table[{i,j,k},{i,3},{j,4},{k,5}], 2] Out[5]= {{1,1,1},{1,1,2},{1,1,3},{1,1,4},{1,1,5},{1,2,1},{1,2,2},{1,2,3},{1 ,2,4},{1,2, 5},{1,3,1},{1,3,2},{1,3,3},{1,3,4},{1,3,5},{1,4,1},{1,4,2},{1,4,3}, {1,4,

Hello. I have an XYY series that I would like to graph with matplot() or some other single function that will do the trick. The X in question is a vector of POSIXt values obtained from strptime(). Is it possible to tell matplot() how to handle POSIXt x values? I have examined the examples at http://lark.cc.ukans.edu/~pauljohn/R/statsRus.html#5.22 , but would prefer not have to overlay the

Hi. As shown in the simplified example below, I'm having trouble allocating memory for large vectors, even though it would appear that there is more than enough memory available. That is, even with a memory limit of 1500 MB, R 2.6.1 (Win) will allocate memory for a first vector of 285 MB, but not for a second vector of the same size. Forcing garbage collection does not seem

Hello. Is there an easy-to-use contour plot function analogous to scatterplot3d that can draw handle a dataset of arbitrary (x,y,z) triplets? That is, say x, y, and z are each measured quanties, and exhibit neither order nor regularity. I looked at the lattice package function "contourplot" but it seems complicated, and it's not clear from the documentation whether it can

Hi. I often wind up with many help windows cluttering my RGui screen when running Windows R 2.0.1. Is there an R instruction to close one or more help windows, or an RGui command to close all help windows? Yours truly, /Ronnen. /P.S. E-mailed CC:s of posted replies appreciated.

Hi. Is there an analog to abline() that can be used to plot a polynomial fit? For example, I can draw the straight-line fit fit <- lm(y ~ x) via abline(coef=fit$coef) but I'm not sure how to draw the polynomial fit fit <- lm(y ~ poly(x,2)) I do see the function curve(), but not how to prepare an expr for curve() based on the coefficients returned by the polynomial

Hi. I'm having a little difficulty with R1.5.1. To wit: (1) Can anyone explain the following behavior? > a=strptime("2002-06-01 12:15:01","%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S") > a [1] "2002-06-01 12:15:01" > a+0 [1] "1932-04-25 21:46:45" > a+3600 [1] "1932-04-25 22:46:45" (2) Can anyone recommend an introductory R text other than that

Hello, I have read recent posts on this topic (Dr. Ronnen Levinson's Monday 02:39:55 pm), but before I install a 64 bit system, and purchase more RAM, I want to make sure I understand this interesting issue. I was attempting to plot a data frame containing Dow Jones stock information: > length(Date) [1] 19957 > length(Close) [1] 19957 > head(DowJones) Date Open High

I've been successfully using a dll via dyn.load() with R1.6.0 for Windows, but when I try it under R1.6.1 it manages to crash the program completely. Has there been a change in how R1.6.1 handles dynamic loading? I couldn't spot any such changes in the documentation. This problem occurred on two different machines, and both run the code under R1.6.0 without a problem. Rob Hyndman

Dear group I use "restart" in part of my code, in a way that's not easily changed to "try". As I convert code from R1.5.0 to R1.6.1, I'm getting ugly messages; the help system says to contact r-devel, so here I am. This one's a bit complicated-- sorry! The context is inside a debugger (I have an R and S debugger that offers stand-alone code windows, line numbered

Hi, there might be a bug in read.delim (also read.table) in R.1.6.2. I included the correct input done in R1.6.1 first, then the wrong input in R1.6.2. The discrepancies are highlighted in red.

Hello. For building REmbeddedPostgres in Omegat project(http://www.omegahat.org/RSPostgres/) requiring PostgresSQL's libs, I've tried to build R1.6.1 on Cygwin following the instruction of http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/Rtools/ since full-spec PostgresSQL running on Windows can run only on Cygwin environment, However I've got following error messages. make -C front-ends Rpwd

I'm having a weird problem with length(), in R1.6.1 under windows2000. I have a dataframe called byyr, with ten columns, the first of which is named cnd95. summary(byyr) shows that byyr$cnd95 contains the factor level "tr" 66 times. Also, when I enter byyr$cnd95 at the command line, I can count 66 "tr" elements in the resulting vector. However, when I enter n95trt <-

Dear friends - using windows xp and R1.6.1 when doing x <- 12 as.character(x) [1] "12" plot(1,2,pch=as.character(x)) the interesting point is marked with: 1 whereas I would like to see 12. In par() is specified under pch: Either an integer specifying a symbol or a single character to be used as the default in plotting points How is that overridden ? Best wishes Troels --------------

With the problem below, I've discoved that n95trt<-length(byyr$cnd95[byyr$cnd95=="tr"&!is.na(byyr$cnd95)]) does give me the correct count for the number of "tr" entries. (The same behavior occurs for the "c" level of the cnd95 factor.) It appears that byyr$cnd95=="tr" is finding both "tr" AND NA entries. Is this a bug, or is it to be
