Hi there, I''m a new to Rails and to Ruby too. I hope you can help with what hopefully is a simple installation problem. I have successfully installed version: C:\>ruby -v ruby 1.8.2 (2004-12-25) [i386-mswin32] I have successfully installed gem: C:\>gem --version 0.8.11 When I try to install Rails i get the following error: C:\>gem install rails --include-dependencies

Hi I can't get R to connect to the internet. I am running R 1.7.1 on Windows XP and whenever I try to download packages etc from within R using the internet, it fails. OK so I am behind a firewall and use a proxy server.... SO, if I go to my MS-DOS prompt and type: RGui.exe --internet2 everything works.... BUT i can't set up a shortcut for this as Windows (I hate Windows) complains

I was trying to install R on a unix server. Because of a firewall i can't install biocLite for working with Bioconductor. With windows it wasn't a problem. I used the option '--internet2' to bypass the firewall. I don't have any idea, how to do it with unix. I tried to set my proxy >Sys.putenv("http_proxy"="http...:8080")

Hi All, I have been trying to solve the issue of Xen-based Virtual Machines (as I described earlier); I have the problem of ethernet ports locked to a single Mac address in my lab--hence VM''s can''t communicate using bridging other than their own dom0. To further test/confirm, yesterday I took my laptop at home and connected to my Home-Hub (which issues DHCP based IPs); I

Dear R users, I'm starting to get acquainted with R. I've been reading the manual, and I understood that if I wanted to install a user written package on R, I could do it directly from the Internet, by typing the line install.packages("quantreg") in an R session. To my surprise this command did not work, nor did the command "update packages from CRAN..." from the menu

OK, dumb question, and it is probably in the docs somewhere, but after 12 months working with R and quite a while looking at the docs, I still don't know (or have forgotten) how to replace all NA values in a matrix at once with some other value. I can do it column by column using is.na(), but I can't figure out how to do it for the whole matrix. My apologies, I am ashamed ;-) Michael

hallo samba i have samba installed on a linux SuSE e-mail server II. i need to know witch port i have to open in my firewall to be able to connect the samba share via NT's explore my samba share om linux03 is [home] = /home/users and a connect from my NT4.0 workstation explore with \\linux03\home where is a firewall between my linux03 server with samba and my NT4.0 workstation.

Hi First a simple question to do with plot(). How do I change the x-axis labels on a plot? For example, I am plotting each row of a matrix, and I want each row to be a line on my graph. Simple really. Eg: plot(sg[1,], type="l") When I do this, the x-axis is labelled 1:38, as I have 38 columns in my matrix. When I do: plot(sg[1,order(sg[1,])], type="l") Ideally I would

Hi I'm not having much luck today! Running Suse Linux 8.2, R 2.0.0, trying to install RCurl_0.5-1.tar.gz. Perhaps there's an issue with my C compiler, but I got some errors: IAHC-LINUX03:/usr/users/mwatson # R CMD INSTALL RCurl_0.5-1.tar.gz * Installing *source* package 'RCurl' ... checking for curl-config... /usr/bin/curl-config checking for gcc... gcc checking for C

Quite a simple one really! When I run boxplot(), the labels on the X axis are horizontal, and I want them vertical. So I did: par(las=3) boxplot(...) And my labels just aren't there anymore.... Any help???

Hi Sorry to revisit an old problem, I seemed to solve this in 2004, only for it to resurface :-S I am trying to plot a heatmap, and I don't want the columns of my matrix re-ordered. The function doesn't seem to behave as the help would have you believe: a <- matrix(rnorm(100),nr=20) a.d <- dist(a) a.hc <- hclust(a.d) a.de <- as.dendrogram(a.hc) # columns are re-ordered

Hi A simple question again, but I can't find it by google-ing R-help. Quite simply, I want to read in the contents of a number of files, using read.table, and assign the results to elements of a vector/array/list/whatever. I want it so that, if my vector/array/whatever is "pos", that pos[1] will give me the first data frame, pos[2] will give me the second etc... Kind of basic

Hi I have seen a few posts to this list regarding problems accessing the x11() device over cgi - namely, when trying to create a graphic using the jpeg() function, everything is fine from the command line but it won't work over cgi, producing the error: "Unable to open connection to X11 display" Has anyone actually solved this particular problem satisfactorily? Please reply

Hi When I use plot(hclust(dist..)...)...) etc to create a dendrogram of a hierarchial cluster analysis, I end up with a vertical tree. What do I need to do to get a horizontal tree? Also, my users are used to seeing trees who's leaves all "end" at the same place (eg. Like in minitab). Is this possible in R? Thanks Mick Michael Watson Head of Informatics Institute for Animal

Hi Running R v2.0 on SuSe linux 8.2. I'm trying to build a package (which built perfectly on Windows...) on Linux, and I ran: R CMD check mypackage I got: * checking mypackage-maual.tex ... ERROR LaTeX errors when creating DVI version This typically indicates Rd problems OK, there are no problems with my Rd - I got 3 warnings but they were all expected, and the whole package builds find

Hi Sorry to ask such a well oiled question, but even with multiple google hits I don't think this has been answered very well. It's all well and good doing a sort of a data frame on multiple columns when you know in advance which columns you want to sort on, but what about when the names of the columns you wish to sort on are in a vector? At the minute I'm messing about with

Hi We have touched on this before, but I don't think I quite got it right. So I have a list, each element of which is a a vector of 2 numbers: > l2 $cat000_a01 [1] 0.3429944 4.5138244 $cat000_a02 [1] 0.1929336 4.3064944 $cat000_a03 [1] -0.2607796 4.1551591 What I actually want to convert this into is a matrix with the names (cat000_a01 etc) as row names, the first element of each of

Hi Now a more theoretical question. I have two correlation matrices - one of a set of variables under a particular condition, the other of the same set of variables under a different condition. Is there a statistical test I can use to see if these correlation matrices are "different"? Thanks Mick
