Hello! Are there any additional packages (besides "regex") I could use to incorporate regular expressions in my R code? I would be grateful for any tips or help you could provide! Yours, Ann Loraine

Dear all, Does any one know if any R package or function can do Ordinary Least Products regression? Many thanks! Bill

I was surprised by the following (R 1.8.0): R> lm.fit = lm(y~x, data.frame(x=1:10, y=1:10)) R> predict(lm.fit, data.frame(x = rep(NA, 10))) 1 2 3 4 5 -1.060998e-314 -1.060998e-314 -1.060998e-314 -1.060998e-314 -1.060998e-314 6 7 8 9 10 0.000000e+00

I'm sure this is probably simple, but I can't find an answer... I have a data frame (Galton's data on heights of parents and children), in grouped form, parent child frequency 73.5 72.2 1 73.5 73.2 3 72.5 68.2 1 72.5 69.2 2 72.5 70.2 1 72.5 71.2 2 72.5 72.2 7 72.5 73.2 2 72.5 74.2 4 71.5 65.2 1 71.5 66.2 3 71.5 67.2 4 71.5 68.2 3 71.5 69.2 5 71.5 70.2 10 ... and need the ungrouped

I'm using the function htmlParse() in the XML package, and I need a little bit help on error handling while parsing an HTML page. So far I can use either the default way: # error = xmlErrorCumulator(), by default library(XML) doc = htmlParse("http://www.public.iastate.edu/~pdixon/stat500/") # the error message is: # htmlParseStartTag: invalid element name or the tryCatch()

I'm trying to do a sunflowerplot of Galton's data, with both regression lines and data ellipses, and I must be doing something wrong, because the lines do not intersect at \bar{x}, \bar{y}. The problem is likely in the line for x.y, but I don't know how to specify that correctly. The data is read in grouped form( galton), and then ungrouped (galton2): galton <-

Father of groom speeches which bring about laughs in the faces of people listening are thought of to be one of the greatest things in attending any wedding affair. All weddings are understood as time for enjoyment. The joining of two hearts by means of wedding rituals also implies the unification of two families. And so, the best way to make the wedding a lot more special is presenting a father of

I am just about working through Faraways excellent tutorial "practical regression and ANOVA using R" on page 24 he makes the x matrix: x <- cbind(1,gala[,-c(1,2)]) how can I understand this gala[,-c(1,2)])... I couldn't find an explanation of such "c-like" abbreviations anywhere. thanks for a hint. another problem: I couldn't load the faraway library, using the

All, I have: sales <- c(2300,900,155,102,42,10) names(sales) <- c("Christmas","Valentine's Day", "Mother's Day","Father's Day", "Thanksgiving","New Year's Day") barplot(sales,ylim=c(0,2500)) But it doesn't place all of the name labels on the plot. So I tried: sales <-

Hi R community! I am analyzing the data set "motorins" in the package "faraway" by using the generalized additive model. it shows the following error.

Dear R- users and Helpers: I downloaded the package from www.stat.lsa.umich.edu/~faraway/book and installed it from local zip file. It looked fine.

I am perfectly aware that this question is not an R question, at least not yet, but I have not succeeded in finding what I want in other ways, so ... What I am looking for are two algorithms, preferabley in Pascal, but other languages may do. For (a) systematic (complete) permutations for grouped data with unequal group sizes, and (b) random permutations for the same kind of data. I know

Hi Folks, Apologies to anyone who'd prefer not to see this query on this list; but I'm asking because it is probably the forum where I'm most likely to get a good answer! I'm interested in the provenance of the name "normal distribution" (for what I'd really prefer to call the "Gaussian" distribution). According to Wikipedia, "The name "normal

I have started with using R on Windows, and I am really happy about the system. Now, one of my other ambitions is to learn how to use Linux, so yesterday I downloaded OpenSuse and installed that. The next problem was to try to use R with Linux. And there I met the wall. I've understood that RPM's are somewhat like installing programs on Windows, so that was downloaded and started
