similar to: exact range of axes in plots

Hello. In messing around with some of the graphical parameters using the par() function (setting margins for example), I've noticed that the plot doesn't always immediately respond to changes...for example when lines are added, if they are out of the range you need to physically find out what the new max range has to be. Is there a companion function in R to the xlispstat function

Hello. Sorry for the elementary post. I've looked through the documentation, but can't seem to find a function which allows one to extract the position of an element within a list...for example the position of the element 4 in the vector c(1,2,4,3,6) is 3. Thanks much for any help. Jason

Dear R users, I was trying to install the package RXLisp by Duncan Temple Lang on a MDK 9.1 Linux machine running R 1.8.0 installed from a RPM. Unfortunately I had a problem loading the shared library into R. Since I'm a Linux newbie I was not able to solve the problem. Maybe some of you can help me. First of all I downloaded the source archive for Xlisp-Stat and for the RXlisp package.

Hello, Does R have any capabilities (or are there any add on packages) which can do estimation of standard statistical models (means, regression, logistic regression, etc) which take into account not only weights (e.g. post-stratification weights) but also the sample design, such as stratification and clustering information (to compute a robust taylor linearized variance estimator, for

Dear friends, I try to get started with R and can’t estimate kurtosis of a random sample by using one command. I have installed R 1.6.2. Please help. Max --------------------------------- ur needs [[alternate HTML version deleted]]

thanks to all for the 2d scatter plot. i have one more. how do i plot 'hist(y1, col="red") and hist(y2,col="blue") in the same window? thanks again.

I am sorry for this off-topic question. Just curious how xlispstat is used in the industry and what's it strengthen compared with other computing languages such as R or matlab? Thanks a lot. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, I want to write in x axis label "fitted value of lambda" (lambda in greek letter). xlab=expression(lambda) gives the "lambda", I tryed things like xlab=paste ("fitted value of ", expression(lambda)) but I didn't get the greek letter. Thanks in advance for any hint. Antonio Olinto ------------------------------------------------- WebMail Bignet - O seu

Hello, I was wondering whether anyone out there knows of the solution to a problem that I'm having with the Fields package. I am getting the error message when I try and run the fields function tps (thin plate splines). Namely, for two different sets of variables, I get: > bout <- Tps( bvolcap, bdsm) Error in svd(tempM) : error 159 in dsvdc > wout <- Tps( wvolcap, wdsm)

A student is trying to cluster some data. Tree-building things seem to be pretty hopeless (we've tried most of the ones in R, I think). Multi-dimensional scaling produces somewhat tantalising results: things do clump together somewhat, but the clusters overlap a lot. I was wondering if these was an artefact of squeezing it down to 2D, and whether 3D might be better. So loc <-

Is it possible to run R soley from the shell? I'm evaluating necessary fixes to R and XLispStat (and eventually SAS and S-PLUS 4) for running as subprocesses to Emacs (NTEmacs) for ESS. Currently, I lose control of R when running via Emacs; is it possible to "remove" the windows? (all, or all but the graphics window)? best, -- -tony (Anthony Rossini) Statistics

Is it possible to change the limits on plots that are already on the screen? In particular, is there any R equivalent to the sequence of matlab commands plot(1:10,1:10) hold on plot(2:12,5:15) I know I can use points and lines to add points and lines to plots, but the limits of the plot do not change when I do this. Looking at various examples, it seems that the answer is "no", but I

Hello, I've written a function that plots a few functions in a diagram. The xlim and or ylim is not always the same, and set automatically by R. A legend is part of this object. Now the problem is: where to put the legend? Me would help a function that returns the limits and scaling of the axis. Thanks for your help. Carsten [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I've made some more changes to configure/make which still don't solve everything but I think I have to stop for now. Status AIX: * I can compile with gcc/f77/make. * AIX make check fails (cannot build base-Ex.R). * GNU make check fails in the contour example. * Plotting is broken (tickmarks go all the way thru). * IEEE fp stuff is strange (will look into this). * I still need f77 for

John Fox (see below) raises important questions for the Lisp-stat community (and perhaps the R community) to consider. This message thread was not cross-posted to r-devel@lists.r-project.org, so I do so now. I have never been an active or particularly adept Lisp-stat programmer. But I have worked on or used several projects for which Lisp-stat seemed the ideal environment-- for implementing

Occasionally I have had plotmath refuse to draw x-axis labels. This has happened when the label, created using expression(paste( ) ) as below, could be drawn easily in the available space. I have not reproduced that, but the following example with a clearly overly long label results in no xlab at all. I hoped that at least a truncated label would be plotted. This is probably related to my

Full_Name: Mark Wall Version: 1.6.0 OS: linux Submission from: (NULL) (63.251.119.254) I want to plot a histogram of a *subset* of some data: >t = c(0:9) >hist(t,right=FALSE,breaks=10,xlim=c(0,5),xaxs="i") This means I should plot a histogram from 0 to 5 with breaks at 1,2,3,4. This should produce exactly 5 bars of frequency=1. Instead I get 5 and 1/4 bars. I do not want the

Dear list, I noticed something while assigning a new value to the slot of an object of class S4. Apparently(*) this object is copied while the operation is performed. Is it really wished ?
