I want to get three .gif image files test.1.gif, test.2.gif, & test.3.gif by using a loop. The code I tried is like this: x=c(0, 1, 2, 3, 4) y=c(1, 2, 3, 4) for(i in 1:3) { x11() jpeg("test.i.gif") plot(x, y) dev.off() } but I only could get one image file, test.i.gif. How can I get three image files? Thanks.

Hi, I've been playing with: > joinDate <- format(strptime(as.vector(forum[,2]), "%d-%b-%y"), + "%d-%b-%Y") > today <- format(strptime(as.vector("14-Jun-04"), "%d-%b-%Y"), + "%d-%b-%Y") > joinDate [1] "04-Feb-2004" "13-Feb-2004" "26-Feb-2004"

I can't load the packages locfit, lokern and quantreg. When I try to load the 3 packages the R program says that the pakages are not properly installed. He says to see the note in ?library. I think that the error is because there is no built field in the 3 packages. What can I do to make the packages run. My OS is Windows XP. Thank you Rui Martins

I've got a PhD student starting this year. She'll be working on data mining. She has asked for a reading list while she's still in her home country, which is a really good sign. Her cosupervisor and I don't (think we) have any problem with choosing things that are specifically about data mining, but there are some statistical ideas (sampling, exploratory-vs-confirmatory,

Hi, Suppose I have a categorical variable called STREET, and I have 30 levels for it (i.e. 30 different streets). I want to find all those streets with only 15 observations or below then collapse them into a level called OTHER. Is there a quick way, other than using a for() loop, to do it? Currently what I'm doing is something like: ### Collapse STREET (those < 15) st <- c()

I am familiar with the rpart and tree packages for classification and regression trees. However, quite a bit of the research in the transportation community relating to decision trees uses the C4.5 family of algorithms by Quinlan. Are there any plans to make a C4.5 (or a derivative of it) available to R? If not, then I might use the WEKA Java package ( http://www.cs.waikato.ac.nz/ml/weka) that

Hi, How could I plot two vectors on the same graph? For example, if I have two lists of results, each list is a vector. I want to display them on the same graph, so I can compare them. How could I do that? Regards, Justin

Dear all, Is there a camera rotation for 3d graphics in R. I have seen it in a conference one time and thought it is pretty neat. the presenter was able to rotate the 3d graph with dragging the mouse up down left right. If not in R is there something that is open source that does this. Thank you Jean Eid

Hi, I have a problem with R; it won't start! I've installed it fine, no problems, but when I try to run it the mouse cursor changes to an hourglass for 1 second and back to normal, and that's it, it doesn't start up. No error messages or nothing. I run Windows XP Pro. by the way. I'd be thankful for any help. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello, I'm maximizing a likelihood function with the function "optim", but for different intial parameters (in the input of the optim funtion) , I found different value for the likelihood function and the parameters estimates, the causes is that the algorithm has not found the global maximum for the function but only a local maximum. What must I do to obtain the global maximum for

Sorry, I forgot to correct the message subject, so I am resending my doubt it below: Hi all! I wrote a very basic program in R, which has some loops ('for' and 'while'). Is there a way to print the 'for' (or while) indice while the program is running so that I am able to estimate where the program is and how long it will last? I mean, I want something like this:

Hi Fellows from R-Help List! My questions are basic since i an new with R. I am very acquainted with Matlab & Gauss (the compentence, I guess). Anyhow, (1) I am trying to get R execute comands made or built as text, so that one can feed a particular option with many variations coming from a text file. Is this possible with the free version? For instance, there exists the eval comand in
