Hi R-users, My question is more methodological one, rather than technical. I have to samples representing residuals based on two measurements techniques (resid1,resid2; n=69). I need to compare two samples, to reject one technique (the worse one), and to keep the one which gave lower residuals (better one). What to look for? What should I analyse? Means, variance, std. deviations? Based on

Hi R-users, I am using "postscript("xx.eps", horizontal=FALSE, onefile=FALSE, height=6, width=10, pointsize=10)" and "barplot(xx.dat)" in R to produce EPS graphics for LATeX document. When checking the graphics with "gv" I see that it was not produced with full details. The main graphic is there, but axes labels and titles are missing. While checking the

Hi R-users, I have a set of elevation residuals as geodata points. I would like to display them in the following way: -negative values using pch=20 (filled circle) -positive values using pch=1 (empty circle) while using the cex.max=5, cex.min=0.1 for points() to represent the residuals value. Basically I would like to distinguish neagtive and positive values at my map. How to do this. Thanks

Hi R-users, How can I found the number of a distinct values in a data frame (occurrence of distinct values)? The dataframe consists of several thousands integer numbers.

Hi, I'm new to "R". I have a matrix of 6x12. I need to produce matrix of 12x6, such that rows in new matrix are columns from original matrix, and columns in a new matrix are rows from the original one. I was playing with rbind(), and cbind() with no success. Regards, -Rado -- Radoslav Bonk M.S. Dept. of Physical Geography and Geoecology Faculty of Natural Sciences, Comenius

Hi, Does anybody know suitable documents (manuals) on writing user functions (covering loops, conditions ...) in R? Other than the usually available manuals. Thanks, Rado -- Radoslav Bonk M.S.

Dear R-users, I have two outliers related questions. I. I have a vector consisting of 69 values. mean = 0.00086 SD = 0.02152 The shape of EDA graphics (boxplots, density plots) is heavily distorted due to outliers. How to define the interval for outliers exception? Is <2SD - mean + 2SD> interval a correct approach? Or should I define 95% (or 99%) limit of agreement for data interval,

Dear R-users, I was able to make ROracle package to connect to the DB (Oracle91, 64bit, on Solaris). But after executing siple SQL query, "fetch" commaned gives me an empty dataframe. ### RORACLE INSTALATION PROCEDURE ### R CMD INSTALL --configure-args='--enable-extralibs' --enable-oracle32=no ~/tmp/ROracle_0.5-5.tar.gz #since we have 64bit Oracle9i instalation PROBLEM:

Dear R users, I'm working on implementation of hydrometeorological DB in Oracle9i and would like to use R, as a plotting engine for graphs and maps and also to perform some non trivial statistics on DB data using R. Thus any links with examples or efforts on: - general DB and R cooperation - Oracle91 and R cooperation - Oracle PL/SQL and R are welcomed. Thanks in advance, Rado --

Dear R-users, In order to use ROracle (v. 0.5-5) package I compiled R-1.9.1 on Linux (2.4.20-28.9smp) and installed it. I need to use Oracle9i on Solaris. When executing "library(ROracle)" I got the following error message: > library(ROracle) Error in dyn.load(x, as.logical(local), as.logical(now)) : unable to load shared library

Dear R users, I have to include typical UNIX formated R commands and outputs into the article using LaTeX. What is the easiest way to include R prompt commands and text outputs (including messages) into LaTeX documents? Is there any template or library? So far I'm trying to produce R commands in LaTeX using LaTeX general format options. Thanks, Rado

Dear R users, I'm coming back to R after while. I have a data frame with 200 columns, each column has a name. How to extract all columns to a new dataset, but the specified (by names) ones? I was playing with that for a little bit using the vector syntax but got several syntax errors. Thanks, Rado

Hello, I am the author of the Bonk audio compression program... i've just been looking at your comparrison table, and i noticed bonk gets marginally better compression than Flac on some files (actually i was rather surprised to see bonk on the list at all, it's not exactly high profile :-) ). Bonk in lossless mode is a pretty naive implementation of a predictive coder, so the main

Dear all, I''ve got a working HTB configuration with iptables, fwmark, SFQ etc. At the moment, I can mark traffic and give it a maximum bandwidth and a minimum guaranteed bandwidth, so far so good. What I would like to do is the following: In stead of defining a min/max for a certain type of traffic (e.g. http, ftp whatever), I would like to define a "minimum guaranteed bandwidth

Dear R-users, I need to standardize residuals using standard deviation. Is the 'stdres' the proper function? Beside other methods (for standardization and normalization), are there some approaches how to standardize using standard deviation? Here is the sample of my residuals: Zres040 Zres0820 Sres040 Sres0820 PCres040 -2.101740 -2.0682900 1.6328500 0.5046730

oh boy, looks like I screwed things up some trying to add hosting for another domain besides my own I thought I went by the book here but something sure ain't right. my real email address is rado at rivers-bend.com then a few days ago, I tweaked sendmail.mc I think it was to masquerade ideallightinginc.com (the other domain) now I just noticed I am showing as rado at ideallighting.com

Hi developers! I would like to know if it is possible to use Vorbis encoder as a real-time encoder for Pocket PCs, because they don't have floating point based unit. If not, do you plan to make a fixed-point based encoder? I'm very interested in this issue so if I could help, I will. I'm working on fixed-point MP3 encoder for XScale devices in cooperation with Intel. It seems that
