similar to: dvips function gives "Documents not found" error

Dear friends of R, I want to produce a pdf file with the contents of a matrix. I employ the latex command in combination with dvi, both contained in the Hmisc package. It seems to me that the function does not correctly set the directory. > tbl.loc <- matrix(1:4, nc=2) > latex.obj <- latex(tbl.loc) > dvi(latex.obj) warning: extra args ignored after 'cd' H:\PROJECTS\data

I am trying to plot a graph but the points on the graph should be different symbols and colors. It should represent what is in the legend. I tried using the points command but this does not work. Is there another command in R that would allow me to use different symbols and colors for the points? Thank you kindly. data(mtcars) plot(mtcars$wt,mtcars$mpg,xlab= "Weight(lbs/1000)",

I am looking for ways to add points to three different plots in parallel. I generate three scatter plots and name them as s3d1, s3d2 and s3d3 s3d1<-scatterplot3d(mtcars[,3],mtcars[,4],mtcars[,5],main="common",pch=20) s3d2<-scatterplot3d(mtcars[,3],mtcars[,4],mtcars[,5],main="common",pch=20)

I'm sure this exists elsewhere, but, as a trade-off, could you achieve what you want with a separate helper function F(expr) that constructs the function you want to pass to [lsv]apply()? Something that would allow you to write: sapply(split(mtcars, mtcars$cyl), F(summary(lm(mpg ~ wt,.))$r.squared)) Such an F() function would apply elsewhere too. /Henrik On Thu, Apr 16, 2020 at 9:30 AM

Hello, When plotting a barchart with ggplot it drops the levels of the factor for which no counts are available. For example: library(ggplot) mtcars$cyl<-factor(mtcars$cyl) ggplot(mtcars[!mtcars$cyl==4,], aes(cyl))+geom_bar() levels(mtcars[!mtcars$cyl==4,]) This shows my problem. Because no counts are available for factorlevel '4', the label 4 dissapears from the plot. However, I

Dear list, I want the 1st, 2nd, 5th, and 6th columns of mtcars. After copying them, the columns become numeric class rather than data frame. But, when I copy rows, they data frame retains its class. Why is this? I don't see why copying rows vs columns is so different. > class(mtcars) [1] "data.frame" > head(mtcars) mpg cyl disp hp drat wt qsec vs

data(mtcars) mtcars[rownames(mtcars)!="Valiant",] # fails mtcars[list(rownames(mtcars))!="Valiant",] # runs but I am not getting the expected result With the latter statement, I expected all rows except the one where the name is "Valiant". I must have got something simple wrong; what is it? Thanks. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I have been successfully using RODBC for a long time (years) to connect to MS SQL Server from R. This week I wanted to try using odbc but I am seeing some problems which may be related to how I set up my driver and/or connection. The dbWriteTable manual page gives as an example command: dbWriteTable( pDB$con, "mtcars", mtcars[1:5,]) When I try this I get the following error Error:

Hi folks, I'm trying to estimate bias-corrected percentile (BCP) confidence intervals on a vector from a simple for loop used for resampling. I am attempting to follow steps in Manly, B. 1998.

Hi, I would like to make a suggestion for a small syntactic modification of FUN argument in the family of functions [lsv]apply(). The idea is to allow one-liner expressions without typing "function(item) {...}" to surround them. The argument to the anonymous function is simply referred as ".". Let take an example. With this new feature, the following call

Dear all I'm unable to find an example of extracting the rotated scores of a principal components analysis. I can do this easily for the un-rotated version. data(mtcars) .PC <- princomp(~am+carb+cyl+disp+drat+gear+hp+mpg, cor=TRUE, data=mtcars) unclass(loadings(.PC)) # component loadings summary(.PC) # proportions of variance mtcars$PC1 <- .PC$scores[,1] # extract un-rotated scores of

Simon, Thanks for replying. In what follows I won't try to argue (I understood that you find this a bad idea) but I would like to make clearer some of your point for me (and may be for others).

Hi everyone, This is about documentation for the model.frame() page. The get_all_vars() function (added in R 2.5.0) is a great addition, but the behavior of its '...' argument is different from that of model.frame() with which it is documented and this creates ambiguity. The current docs read: \item{\dots}{further arguments such as \code{data}, \code{na.action}, \code{subset}. Any

Dear all Is there an easier way to retrieve the name of an object? For example, > tmp <- 1:10 > as.character(quote(tmp)) [1] "tmp" > as.character(quote(mtcars$cyl)) [1] "$" "mtcars" "cyl" > as.character(quote(mtcars$cyl))[3] [1] "cyl" The last call more than anything seems a hack. Is there a better way? Thank you Liviu

Dear R Helpers, I need help with a slightly unusual situation in which I am trying to select some columns from a data frame. I know how to use the subset statement with column names as in: x=as.data.frame(matrix(c(1,2,3, 1,2,3, 1,2,2, 1,2,2, 1,1,1),ncol=3,byrow=T)) all.cols<-colnames(x) to.keep<-all.cols[1:2] Kept<-subset(x,select=to.keep) Kept

Before I go and do this another way - can I check if anyone has a way of looping through data in odfWeave (or possibly sweave) to do a repeating analysis on subsets of data? For simplicity lets use mtcars dataset in R to explain. Dataset looks like this: > mtcars mpg cyl disp hp drat wt ... Mazda RX4 21.0 6 160 110 3.90 2.62 ... Mazda RX4 Wag 21.0 6 160 110 3.90

May be in a (new?) future, R core will come with a correct proposal for this principle? Meanwhile, to avoid substitute(),

Dear listers, The following command (derived from the example in the ?stars help page) works : data(mtcars) stars(mtcars[, 1:7]) But the following gives an error: stars(mtcars[1, 1:7]) Error in s.y[i, ] : incorrect number of dimensions I was expecting to have the star graph for the first line (Mazda Rx4) The following give an incorrect graph for the first two cars : stars(mtcars[1:2, 1:7])
