Hi, I got this working. i had to get rid of an underscore in one of my variable names to work on RWeb. Thanks for your help though!! Natalie __________________ I think you have to be either honest or careful, since the code you submitted to Rweb is different with your former code! Why the condition was changed from "test<-subset(X, GRADE == 7 & Y_Q10A < 9)" to

Invalid poly argument The data are defined as follows: polgonprov<-list(x=polyprov$X, y=polyprov$Y) with X and Y coordinates in the Lambert1972

Dear R-listers, I would like to carry out a very basic descriptive analysis of homicides rates in Italy, taking into account both the spatial dimension (103 provinces) and the temporal dimension (10 years), but no covariates. In practice, what I would like to do is to describe spatio-temporal variation of homicide rates, identifying those combinations of province-year where the homicide rate

Dear List, the advent of multicore machines in the consumer segment makes me wonder whether it would, at least in principle, be possible to divide a computational task into more slave R processes running on the different cores of the same processor, more or less in the way package SNOW would do on a cluster. I am thinking of simple 'embarassingly parallel' problems, just like inverting

I am a complete newbie in R . Using R 2.2.0 Windows XP This started as a simple exercise to see if I could produce a simple Cleveland style dotchart with a line from the '2' axis to the dot rather than a continuous line as do "dotchart" and "dotchart2". At least I could not find that option. I got a crude program to work but it includes unnecessary steps.
