Hello Anyone that now of any function in R that can calculate copulas? Or if anyone have any code avaible I would be more than interested. Thank you in advance /Thomas ______________________________________________ R-help at stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help

How can I best achieve the following (works in Splus): filenames <- dos("dir *.sasb7dat /b") What I am asking, more generically, is: how can I capture the output of a DOS command in R? I have tried using system("COMMAND.COM /c dir /b", intern=T, show.output.on.console=T) where intern: a logical, indicates whether to make the output of the command an R

Hi, I just encountered a problem in R that may easily be fixed: If one uses attach for a data.frame e.g. 10000 times and forgets detach, then R gets incredibly slow (less then 10% of the original speed). My system: platform powerpc-apple-darwin6.0 arch powerpc os darwin6.0 system powerpc, darwin6.0 status major 1 minor 6.1 year 2002

(If this only happens in Win 98, I'm sure I could live with it. Just may be helpful to report it, I hope.) Start up R GUI, then > plot(1:4,1:4) # then close manually by clicking X > plot(1:4,1:4) # ditto > methods(plot) sometimes produces normal output and even the following prompt, but then crashes immediately, or more often, crashes immediately with no output. I can do any

Dear all, I have found the following (for me) incomprehensible behaviour of ISOdate (POSIXct): > ISOdate(1900,6,16) [1] "1900-06-15 14:00:00 Westeurop?ische Sommerzeit" > ISOdate(1950,6,16) [1] "1950-06-16 14:00:00 Westeurop?ische Sommerzeit" Note that in the first case I get the 15th of June back, not the 16th as I would have expected! This happened under R-1.7.1 on

Greetings everyone, I am new at R. My questions is rather basic. Looking R manuals looks like there should be a way to read MS excel files into R. Could somebody tell me which library should I use for that? Thanks in advance Victor H.

Dear R users, I want to share my joy with you. Please see the following excellent introduction to R "Statistiques avec R " by Vincent Zoonekynd http://zoonek2.free.fr/UNIX/48_R/all.html In paticular, you can see a lot of fascinating graphics examples of R from which you can get many hints. Soryy if this is already well-known, but the CRAN search did not show nothing with the keyword

Hi all, I hope this isn't a naive newbie question again. Here you can see column 264 of a data frame containing data of the same interview in May and September.

bug.report() tells me to email to r-bugs@r-project.org, whereas the Web site http://www.r-project.org/ points me to r-bugs@biostat.ku.dk. Which should I believe?

Dear R users, I want to retrieve "..." argument values within a function. Here is a small exmaple: myfunc <- function(x, ...) { if (hasArg(ylim)) a <- ylim plot(x, ...) } x <- rnorm(100) myfunc(x, ylim=c(-0.5, 0.5)) Error in myfunc(x, ylim = c(-0.5, 0.5)) : Object "ylim" not found > I need to retrieve values of "ylim" (if it is defined

I've searched on CRAN for axes, axis, and other terms I've already forgotten, without (re)discovering the reason for S using "non-joining" axes by default, instead of box("l"). MASS points me towards Cleveland (1993) but I don't have ready access to this any more. Could someone give me a one-liner to justify this choice to a sceptic? It's something to do

I want to investigate possible relationships between two discrete variables. I have tried a few things but figured you guys might be able to point me at some purpose built functions. Our scientists score results of tests which are performed in lets say, 8 positions. The scores are assigned a value of 1,2,3 or 4. I want to know if there is a correlation between the test results and the

Try the following function (the name is supposed to be a joke, by the way), which will also do the right thing with NAs and characters. Use it as if(equal.enough(x,y)) rather than if(x==y), e.g. > equal.enough(0.1+0.2, 0.3) [1] TRUE My default of 15 significant figures may be overkill in many applications; be prepared to reduce this. Simon Fear "equal.enough" <- function(x, y,

For reasons which I'll spare you, I'm writing a program to analyse R source code. This has led me to probe some of the darker corners of R syntax to find out what is supposed to happen. Now, from reading the R documentation (and the New S book &c) I know perfectly well that f(a, b, etc) <- x is supposed to turn into a <- "f<-"(a, b, etc, value=x) Except,

Why does > curve(function(y) y^2, from=0,to=1) not work, whereas > myf <- function(y) y^2 > curve(myf, from=0,to=1) work? For the former, I get the error message Error in curve(function(y) y^2, from = 0, to = 1) : 'expr' must be a function or an expression containing 'x' I'm using R1.7.0 under Windows XP.

Hi R-people I have a question concerning subsetting. I have a dataframe which contains among other variables the variable "subject". For each subject number there are several rows, e.g.: subject treatment concentration day 19 a 15,4 1 19 a 18,3 2 19 a 2,3 3 etc. Im trying to subset the dataframe to get for

Hi everyone, I want to write a function that modify directly variables passed as parameters (the equivalent in C language of *ptr/&ptr) so that I don't have to return a list and to reaffect all my variables. Is it possible to do so in R? Thanks a lot. Laetitia Marisa.

I have a data frame with 155,000 rows. One of the columns represents the user id (of which about 10,000 are unique). I am able to isolate 1000 of these user ids (stored in a list) that I want to eliminate from the data set, but I don't know of an efficient way to do this. Certainly this would be slow: newdf<-df for(i in listofbadusers) { newdf<-subset(tmp,uid!=i) } is there a better
