Hi: I have have taken over from a colleague who prepared an R package and failed to build it on Windows. I am doing this with unix as I am a mac user. Below is the output I get when I use the build command: [gattuso:unix/R/CO2.Rcheck] gattuso% R CMD build CO2 * checking for file 'CO2/DESCRIPTION' ... OK * preparing 'CO2': * checking whether 'INDEX' is up-to-date ...

Hi: I have started to use Lattice two days ago and find that it is an outstanding package. I am, however, stumbling on two problems, despite the fact that I have read the help pages as well as two pdf documents on Trellis that I found on the web. 1- I want to remove the ticks on the top and right sides of the panels and did not see any option in "scales" to do so. 2- I would like

Hi: I have made a lot of progress reading and manipulating large data files, thanks to the help of several of you. I am now stuck with writing the final file with the following error (see also the full transcript below): Error in as.matrix.data.frame(x) : length of dimnames[2] not equal to array extent I do not know what it means and could not find how to get around that in the manual nor

Hi: I am a very recent user of R 1.40 for MacOSX and went through the help files but did not not find the function that I am looking for. I have two comma separated files which I want to partly combine. File 1 has 49670 lines and 26 columns (separated by commas) and looks like this: ...

Hi: Thanks a lot to Deepayan Sarkar, author of lattice I think, who solved my first query. I am afraid that I have another one. I am plotting several mutipanels boxplots (with one conditioning variable) on one page. The x, y and conditioning variable are all continuous variables. The x and conditioning variables are transformed to shingles before being plotted. The plot looks nice but there

Hi: I am using the following command: xyplot(dat6$CO3*1e6 ~ dat6$irradiance, data=dat6, group=ref, xlab=list(label=expression(paste("Irradiance (", mu, "mol photons", m^"-2", " ", s^"-1", ")")), cex=1.3), ylab=list(label=expression(paste("Carbonate concentration (x ", 10^"6", " ", kg^"-1",

Dear all, Is there a test in R for the randomness of a sequence of observations (e.g. to test the random number generator)? Specifically I am looking for autocorrelations which are not necessarily linear in nature, which the acf function does not seem to be flexible enough to detect as it tests for linear autocorrelation. Thanks in advance, Paul.

Hi there fellow R-users, Can anyone tell me if there exits an R package that deals with serial correlation in the residuals of an lm model. Perhaps, using the Cochrane Orcutt or Praise Wilson methods? Thanks, Wayne Dr Wayne R.

Hi there fellow R-users, I'm stuck on this seemingly trivial problem. All I want to coerce a character string into a command. For example: x<-rnorm(20) y<-rnorm(20) str<-"lm(y~x)" I want to evaluate the "str" command. I have tried eval(as.expression(str)) But it doesn't seem to work. I am aware of the call command, but for reasons I won't go

Dear R-listers: I am trying to work with a big (262 Mb) file but apparently reach a memory limit using R on a MacOSX as well as on a unix machine.

Hi, I run R 2.5.1 on Mac OS 10.4.10 and fail to build a package manual. Below is the transcript. The problem is a "pdflatex: command not found" error but I think that I have a fully working latex install (installed with iInstaller) as I use TeXShop with no problem. Could someone help?

Hello there fellow R-users, I am using the RODBC functionality to query a database. I am trying to read in a columns of strings which have a character field lengths greater than 255. The data.frame that I recieve back from the RODBC query only contains the first 255 characters (the rest having been truncated). Any help on how to solve this problem would be greatly appreciated.

Now I am stuck with a dll containing C++ code. I have included some part of the source code (of an implementation of a function to find all primes below a given numeric value -> its just an exercises to get familar with

Hello All, Does anyone out there know a way to decompose time series objects with missing values. A simple "na.omit" will not work since it does not preserve the time differences between succesive observations. Thanks in advance, Wayne Dr Wayne R.
