similar to: models for square tables

For a variety of displays (mosaicplots, barplots, ...) one often wants to either abbreviate or wrap long labels, particularly when these are made up of several words. In general, it would be nice to have a function, abbreviate.or.wrap <- function(x, maxlength=10, maxlines=2, split=" ") { } that would take a character vector or a list of vectors, x, and try to abbreviate or wrap

Hi, I have what I think is an easy question. I have a data frame, called stockdata, of stock prices that looks like this: date ticker close 1 01/02/1998 GE 24.667 2 01/05/1998 GE 25.104 3 01/06/1998 GE 24.771 4 01/07/1998 GE 24.979 5 01/08/1998 GE 24.750 6 01/02/1998 HIT 71.125 7 01/05/1998 HIT 72.313

Dear R friends I wanted a function to make a simple percent table that would be easy for students to use. The goal originally was to have a simple thing people would call like this pctable(rowvar, colvar, data) and the things "rowvar" and "colvar" might be names of variables in data. I wanted to avoid the usage of "with" (as we now see in the table help). Then

I've put two packages for R on my home page at http://www.xs4all.nl/~jhckx/R/. The "pcnt" package is for multiway percentage tables. I've posted a first effort called "ctab" on this group and a request for enhancing "ftable" with percentages on the wishlist. The "mcl" package is for estimating multinomial logistic models using conditional logistic

A multinomial logit model can be specified as a conditional logit model after restructuring the data. Doing so gives flexibility in imposing restrictions on the dependent variable. One application is to specify a loglinear model for square tables, e.g. quasi-symmetry or quasi-independence, as a multinomial logit model with covariates. Further details on this technique and examples with several

I need to calculate a large number of t statistics, and would like to do so via matrix operations. So far I have figured out a way to calculate the mean of each row of the matrix: d <- matrix(runif(100000,1,10), 1000, 10) # some test data s <- rep(1,ncol(d)) # a sum vector to use for matrix multiplication means <- (d%*%s)/ncol(d) This is at least 1 order of magnitude faster than

is there any existing function for computing condition index? " analysing multivariate data" say that we can use condition index to check multicollinearity.saying that we can get it via SVD. The elements of the diagnoal matrix are the standard deviations of the uncorrelated vectors. the condition index is the ratio of the largest of these numbers to the smallest. so if i have a data

Yesterday I asked for help about read.table with a CSV file. I received the following help. As always many thanks for the prompt responses. Now I load my csv file in a text editor ( pfe) and delete all spaces. My original mail is at the end. From: Peter Dalgaard BSA <p.dalgaard at biostat.ku.dk> Do you have spaces before the commas in your file? > Yes, number , space,

I have a substantial CSV to import but can't seem to import even the simplest CSV. I'm running the latest stable REvolution R on OS X if that is pertinent. Here's the contents of a simple test2.csv CSV file: #,Status,Project 5842,New,Test > snortalerts = read.table( "/Users/lcox/Documents/test2.csv", header=TRUE, > sep=",", row.names="#") Error

Dear R Helpers, I have trouble applying reShape and reshape although I read the documentation and several posts, so I would very much appreciate your help on the two points below. I have a dataframe df = data.frame(Name=c("a", "a", "a", "b", "b", "c"), X1=c("12", "13", "14", "20", "25",

IF you are not stuck to IPSec, you might want to take a look at OpenVPN (www.openvpn.org). I found OpenVPN easier to install than FreeSWAN (an IPSEC VPN) and have setup an OpenVPN solution between my German office and our mainoffice in a matter of hours.

Not really an R question but I'm hoping someone can help me out. I'm having problems with the R help page "The R language" and Mozilla 1.3 with the Java 2 runtime environment 1.4.1_02 under Windows XP. The problems occur on the "Search Engine & Keywords" page. I can open two links, but after that links aren't recognized. The problem seems to be javascript

Hi,I'm trying to prevent llvm instruction motion around an intrinsic function call. Throughout my experimenting, I was told that setjmp could create fake entry points into a region of code and that might prevent code motion.What I found is something surprising, and probably is a misuse of setjmp but I couldn't find an explanation for it.Consider this:#include <csetjmp> std::jmp_buf

Full_Name: John Hendrickx Version: 1.6.0 OS: Windows 98 Submission from: (NULL) (137.224.174.216) CrossTable in the "gregmisc" package fails when the fisher.exact test produces an error (I suspect this is because the number of cases is too large). This can be fixed using "FTt <- try(fisher.test(t, alternative = "two.sided"))" or by making the test optional.

Dear All I am trying to use svychisq with a two-dimensional table 4 x 5. The command I am using is summary(svytable(~dietperception+dietstatus,dudleyls1rake,na.rm=TRUE),"C hisq") It is throwing up an error message as follows: Error in NCOL(y) : only 0's may be mixed with negative subscripts In addition: Warning messages: 1: is.na() applied to non-(list or vector) in:

I've been experimenting with R during the last week and I thought I'd pass on some comments on issues on the documentation that left me a bit confused. To start with (literally), the ReadMe.rw1021 file says that the easiest way to install R is to download the rwinst.exe installer program. That gave me the impression that the program would connect to an R download site, download the

Hi, I have a tiny feature request for Dovecot: could it optionally have different login_greetings for pop3 and imap connections? e.g. I want it to say "Dovecot on pop.mycompany.com ready" on pop3 connections and "Dovecot on imap.mycompany.com ready" on imap connections. Would that be possible? TIA, Geert
