Please use a more meaningful subject. Some might take it as a spam and hit the delete button. Objects in the workspace are visible inside functions, but are usually not directly manipulated inside functions. When you modify an object in the workspace inside a function, what actually happens is a local copy is made, reflecting the modifications you made, and leave the one in the workspace

Is there a way to create Bollinger Bands without having to loop on the observations of a time serie? Any help appreciated Thanks

I have the following function: Myfunc <- function(var1,var2,.....,varN) { ..... } In the above function I have a variable number of parameters (N>2). How can I count how many parameters have been entered? Any help appreciated Thanks Arno

I have just installed R on a Windows NT system. Unfortunately I am unable to open any of the data files I wish to work with. I have tried using read.table and scan and to the best of my knowledge am using the correct syntax. The error message I receive is Error in file(file, "r") : cannot open file [file name] I have the data in text files in white-space delimited form. I put them

Dear Users, I use Sgeostat to calculate co variogram (function est.variogram with two variables). If i inverse the 2 variables in the functions, the co variogram change! Normaly it is symmetric, isn't it? Someone could me explain why, or give me an idea to calculate co variogram in a easy way... Thanks in advance Laurent ps : sorry for my english Laurent William Dubroca Centre de

I am just learning to use R. The data from my current project are integer-valued. I am able to create scatterplots, but I would like to have some indication on the plots when multiple data points overlap at the same x-y coordinate. SPSS uses 'petals', and other packages use jitter. Are there similar options in R? I have not been able to find any in the documentation. Thanks very much,

Hello Cracks, we want to import 10 x 365 files containing each 7 variables with 1211 rows. The filenames end with numbers from 1 to 365. We tried a for loop to import using read.table but we couldn't create the r objects within the loop. We want each file in an own r-objekt (matrix). Does anyone know what can be done? Thanks, Felix -- Felix Tiefenbacher Eidg. Institut f?r Schnee- und

Is it true that append=T does not work in assignTable() in RMySQL ? More specifically: I cannot append a data.frame to an existing table in a MySQL database, although I can use the same data.frame to create a new table. Even more specifically: > assignTable(con,"employee",dita,append=T) Error in execStatement.MySQLConnection(con, statement, ...) : RS-DBI driver: (could not

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, I'm a new R users (although I have a little experience with S+). I am using the latest version (1.4.1) of R on a Windows 2000 system. I have obtained several of the additional R packages ("modules") and would like to know how to permanently install them. What I am after is something similar to the following in S+ > .First <- function() { module("module_name")

Can anyone tell me what's wrong with this command?? xx<-subset(x,LOCAL.NAME==c("Chifumbata","Chikota"),select=c(13,16,19,23,26,2 9,30,33:48)) Warning message: longer object length is not a multiple of shorter object length in: LOCAL.NAME == c("Chifumbata", "Chikota") both of the following commands work fine

Hi all! I new to R (I don't know anything about S+ either!) I've a simple question: How do I generate overlay plots in R? So far as I can see the plot(x, y) operator will only give me one graph and the plot(x ~ y + z) will give me 2 separate plots. Is there an easy way to overlay or am I missing the obvious? Any help welcome. Gerard Keogh The information in this email, and any

Is there any way that R can be programmed so that it will cycle through all files in a directory without having to define file names? The reason I ask is because I will have about 50-100 files in a directory which will be randomly named. ie: MIDEX, OACES-CO2, ODEN91, etc... If not...are there any languages out there that will do this sort of things? Or is there another method you could

I am quite new to R, so please bear over with me if I have problems with the R terminology. I want to (try to) use R for some analyses within vegetation ecology, using the vegan package. I have my data in a postgresql database, and I manage to get them into R as a dataframe with columns for respectively: Name of the analysed m2, Name of the species, coverage of species in the square in %. I

It appears that fetch() gets only the first 500 rows by default. I don't see this in the documentation, but timeinfo <- fetch(rs) gets only 500 rows where timeinfo <- fetch(rs,n=-1) gets (correctly) 736 for the same query. Is this an undocumented feature? I played with this data for an alarming amount of time before I realized that I was missing a third of the data. I

I'd like to estimate time varying coefficients in a linear regression using a Kalman filter. Even if the Kalman Filter seems to be available in some packages I can't figure out how to use it to estimate the coefficients. Is there anyway to do that in R? Any help appreciated Thanks

Hy, I have dowloaded the R-version for Windows. I would want to plot different pictures on the same device, but I am not able to do it (i.e I would like make 2 qqplot on the same graphic).

Dear All, I am new to R and can see it is a very powerful and versatile system for programming and statistical analysis. Say I have written a simple function and want to use it on a regular basis. I have the file as a text file say 'c:\R-funcs\func.txt' how do I get R to find it on the hard disc or alternatively where is the default location for looking up functions where I can place
