R 1.8.0 on Windows XP Professional. A huge THANK YOU to the R Team for this marvelous software. I am making lattice plots of oceanographic data. The usual layout does not conform to plotting conventions that marine scientists use when depth is the independent variable. Under those conventions, plots are made with the origin at the upper left, depth on the vertical axis (increasing as it

Dear R experts, I would greatly appreciate your help with R's hypertext online documentation, which I can pass on to our system manager. We are running version 1.7 on sparc-sun-solaris2.9 using netscape7 browser for displaying the help. The system is working, but there are a few frustrating details that I hope might be fixed. Here are three problems we are having: 1. When the R session

Can someone point me to the appropriate functions for fitting multiple statistical models that are coupled to each other. The data are measurements of salinity s and temperature t at stations id and pressures at p as well as surface elevations h at stations id. The problem is, for any new station, to estimate s at all p, given t at all p and given h. If h is ignored, the for each p, there

I am exploring the use of loess for oceanographic applications and would like to plot the locations (longitude and latitude) points where the models (salinity~temperature*longitude*latitude,parametric="temperature") are fitted. Chambers and Hastie(1993) explains the locations are nodes of a k-d tree. but I cannot find anything about accessing this information. It would be useful to

Dear R experts, When using R 2.1 under Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 with Mozilla 1.7.6 as browser, help.start() almost works correctly. When I follow one of the search result links everything is fine, but when I go back to follow another link, I find them all inactive. So I have to redo the search. Any suggestions? Thanks, Carlisle Thacker > version _ platform

How to combine three plots so that they partially overlap? As the data on all three are near the left side and top, it would be nice to draw the first, shift axes down and to the right and draw the second, and shift again to draw the third. I could shift the data for the 2nd and 3rd plots and construct their axes by hand, but it would be great if R has an easier way.

The University of Miami's Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences (RSMAS) is seeking a research associate to work with hydrographic data. The objective of the project is to develop statistical models for estimating salinity and density from observations of temperature together with knowledge of location and time. Because the relationship between salinity and temperature can be

Dear R-listers, It seems that predict() behaves differently within panel.xyplot. Am I doing something stupid? Thanks, Carlisle First, without xyplot(): > lmtest <- lm(t~s,data=subset(P100,whichLon100==1 & whichLat100==1)) > lmtest Call: lm(formula = s ~ t, data = subset(P100, whichLon100 == 1 & whichLat100 == 1)) Coefficients: (Intercept) t 33.3307

How to add units (e.g. "cm") to the color key of a lattice levelplot? The plots looks fantastic, but it would be nice to indicate somewhere near the end of the color key that the values associated with its colors are in centimeters or some other physical units. The only thing I find is the possibility to specify the labels so that one explicitly includes the units. That leaves

Dear Rlisters, When trying to indicate which data belong to which of 7 groups, the following plot shows only 5 groups: ss <- trellis.par.get("superpose.symbol") ss$col <- c("red","blue","green","yellow","orange","magenta","cyan") ss$pch <- format(1:7) ss$cex <- 1.2 ss <-

Hi all, I 've got a question about the usage of loess in the modreg package. The documentation (loess.html) states that the smoothing window is either set by span or enp.target. If span is used, the details section of the docs state... <SNIP> DETAILS Fitting is done locally. That is, for the fit at point x, the fit is made using points in a neighbourhood of x, weighted by their

Hi Every Body, I don't know why some regression functions have no related prediction function. For example lowess, loess, lokerns, lpridge, lpepa, and ksmooth. What could help? Is there any global or wrapper function so that can help? Regards, Amir Safari --------------------------------- [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I''ve got about 40 linux/aix machines that I''d like assimilate into config management with puppet. I''ve been reading lots of docs, recipes and best practices. I''m wondering if there''s a guide somewhere that lays out the most efficient way to spread the use of puppet across a quantity of installed machines. I''d like to do first things first,

I have a new Belkin F6C900-UNV. I see that it's not listed in belkin-hid.c The VendorID is 0x050d like all the Belkin UPSes, and the ProductID is 0x0900. I haven't had a chance to actually test the development version of nut yet, since I'm running Fedora Core 6, which still has nut 2.0.3. `newhidups -DD -a myups` gives the error of: Checking device (050D/0900) (001/002) - VendorID:

Is that what you want? This would help since dead nodes do not clutter the visual representation. What are the effects, if any, of dead nodes in the hosts/ dir? Thanks
