---------- Forwarded message ---------- Hello, I am analyzing a weighted, stratified, clustered survey data set with approximately 1 million observations and 50 variables. I am new to R (I'm a Stata user), and so far couldn't find any documentation on how to handle survey data. In other words, is there a specific package to handle a combination of weigths, clusters and strata. I am also

Hello: What is the recommended method for retaining the tzone attributes when concatonating POSIXct objects? > (d1 <- ISOdate(1970,1,1)) # Sets the tzone attribute = GMT [1] "1970-01-01 12:00:00 GMT" > (d1.2 <- c(d1, d1)) # c(..) strips the tzone attribute, displays in the time zone of the operating system [1] "1970-01-01 04:00:00 PST" "1970-01-01

I am attempting to graph 12 months of temperatures, delineate the months with a vline and place the names of the months at the top of the graph. So far I have gotten everything to work except the names, despite getting a similar graph to work yesterday the day before yesterday with Baptise A's help. Can anyone suggest what I am doing wrong. Data set is below code. Thanks. Code

Hi, I found a discrepancy between results in R and Stata for a factor analysis with a promax rotation. For Stata: . *rotate, factor(2) promax* (promax rotation) Rotated Factor Loadings Variable | 1 2 Uniqueness -------------+-------------------------------- pfq_amanag~y | -0.17802 0.64161 0.70698 pfq_bwalk_~ø | 0.72569 0.05570

Dear all, I have found the following (for me) incomprehensible behaviour of ISOdate (POSIXct): > ISOdate(1900,6,16) [1] "1900-06-15 14:00:00 Westeurop?ische Sommerzeit" > ISOdate(1950,6,16) [1] "1950-06-16 14:00:00 Westeurop?ische Sommerzeit" Note that in the first case I get the 15th of June back, not the 16th as I would have expected! This happened under R-1.7.1 on

Dear R-people! I am using R 1.8.0, under Windows XP. While using ISOdate() and strptime(), I noticed the following behaviour when "wrong" arguments (e.g., months>12) are given to these functions: > ISOdate(year=2003,month=2,day=20) #ok [1] "2003-02-20 13:00:00 Westeurop?ische Normalzeit" > ISOdate(year=2003,month=2,day=30) #wrong day, but returns a value [1]

hi, I've troubles with some difftime objects. e.g. ISOdate(2001, 4, 26) - ISOdate(2001, 2, 26) - 2 works, telling me "Time difference of 57 days". But when I'd like to add days, such as ISOdate(2001, 4, 26) - ISOdate(2001, 2, 26) + 2 the function gives me an error. Function "as.COMDate.chron" of the Rbloomberg package doesn't work for that reason. I'm

rrdf is incredibly helpful, but I've notice that the rrdf package for mac hasn't been working for some time: http://goo.gl/5Ukpn . wondering if there is still a plan to maintain that in the long run, or if there is some other alternative to read RDF files. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, Given a date, how do I get the last date of that month? I have data in the form YYYYMM, that I've read as a date using > x$Date <- as.Date(ISOdate(substr(x$YearEnd,1,4),substr(x$YearEnd,5,6),1)) But this gives the first day of the month. To get the last day of the month, I tried > as.Date(as.yearmon(x$Date,frac=0)) But I don't get the last day of the month here. (Tried

Although the documentation is somewhat sketchy, I() can be used to create objects of class AsIs: > I("a") [1] "a" attr(,"class") [1] "AsIs" "character" > I(4) [1] 4 attr(,"class") [1] "AsIs" "numeric" > I(4 + 0i) [1] 4+0i attr(,"class") [1] "AsIs" "complex" > This

I use POSIXct for datetimes. Is thee a timeAlign function that I can use where : align by year direction -1 ==> start of this year direction 1 ==> start of next year align by week direction -1 ==> date on last sunday direction 1 ==> date on next sunday align by day direction -1 ==> time at past midnight direction 1 ==> time at this comming

Dear Members, Compliments of the Season!! Below is a part of a code I use for Fourier analysis of signals. The code handles data with the format 05 01 01 8628 (year, month, day and count) 05 01 02 8589 (year, month, day and count) The sample data is attached as 2005daily.txt. I would like to adapt the code to handle data of the form: 05 01 01 00 4009

I'd like to make a plot showing frequency of an event. The data is in a data from that includes Year, Month and Day (of month) fields, so I created a Date with ISOdate(Year, Month, Day, tz=''). I can plot frequencies for the year 2002 with > thisyear <- Date[Year==2002] > hist( thisyear, xaxt='n' ) > axis.POSIXct( 1, at=seq(min(thisyear), max(thisyear),

Hello out there.... Again I have a problem and I stuck... How can I sort a vector of dates? For example I have the vector a<-ISOdate(2001, 1, 1) + 70*86400*runif(10) How can this vector be sorted chronological? And what's the function I should work with to handle these entries? (in sense of: which(a>2001-01-04) or somehting like that) Thank you for helping M.Kirschbaum

Dear all I try to make hourly average by cut() function, which almost works as *I* expected. What puzled me is that if there is only one item at the end of your data it results in NA. Example will explain what I mean datum<-seq(ISOdate(2004,8,31), ISOdate(2004,9,1), "min") cut(datum[1370:1381],"hour", labels=F) [1] 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 NA

I am using R-1.7.0 and have some data which consist of one vector of numbers and a second corresponding vector of dates belonging to the POSIXct class. I would like to plot the numbers against the dates. What is the best way to do this? It almost works to just call `plot.' However if I do this while using the `ylab' parameter I get a warning message: parameter "ylab"

Yesterday I just noticed the new document on R and regulatory aspects for biomedical research posted at http://www.r-project.org/doc/R-FDA.pdf Coming from an institution that performs a large number of clinical trials for FDA and being an advocate of R myself, I have found that the following issues usually come up when discussing the use of R for FDA trials: 1. Most FDA submissions come down to

I currently have a data set describing human subjects enrolled into an international clinical trial, the name of the hospital enrolling this human subject, the date when the subject was enrolled, and a vector with variables representing characteristics of the site (e.g., number of beds in a hospital). my data sets looks like this: subject hospital date_enrollment hospital_beds 1 hospitalA

Dear All, I have a data set containing year, month, day and counts as shown below: data <- read.table("data.txt", col.names = c("year", "month", "day", "counts")) Using the formula below, I converted the data to as date and plotted. new.century <- data$year < 70 data$year <- ifelse(new.century, data$year + 2000, data$year + 1900)
