Hi, I am trying to write an article for the Rnewsletter, but keep getting errors. I have googled around for some decent examples that contain figures, maths, etc but with no joy. Would any be so kind as to send me an example article in latex code? Cheers, Sam.

Dear, I'm looking for some examples on OO programming in R. I have the programming manual with explanation on UseMethod and NextMethod but I miss some practical examples to get me going (I hope). I searched the web but could not find a good independent tutorial on this. Any suggestions are welcome, Kris -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi, I want to set up a dynamic link between a library e.g. myLibrary.a and a C++ file myProgram.cc to use in R. Is this possible? If so how does one go about doing it? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Cheers, Sam.

Hi, I am trying to use the stl function in the ts package. It requires that the data is a univariant time series at the moment my data is in a vector. I have coerced it to a time series using.... crimets <- ts(crimeData) However, this does not work. Does anyone have any suggestions? Cheers, Sam. p.s. I am fairly new to R so apologies if this is a stupid posting.

Dear all, I am trying to write an R function that can estimate Transfer functions *with additive noise* i.e. Y_t = \delta^-1(B)\omega(B)X_{t-b} + N_t where B is the backward shift operator, b is the delay and N_t is a noisy component that can be modelled as an ARMA process. The parameters to both the impulse response function and the ARMA noisy component need to be estimated simultaneously. I

Hi, I would like to be able to count a sequence of numbers. For example, given a vector of the following integers (1,1,1,2,2,2,2,3,3,3,3,3,3,1,1,1,1, 3,3) the function would return (3, 4, 6, 4,2) Does anyone have any cool ideas to solve this? Any help appreciated. Regards, Sam. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, Is there a function in R that lets one represent an integer in binary format for a given number of bits? So an example would be.... > binary.function(num=5, num.of.bits=8) > "00000101" Or, is this something I have to write myself? Any help would be appreciated. Cheers, Sam.

I'm translating some Matlab code and need some help figuring out how to change this call into an S4 generic method. In matlab, there's a function called 'repmat' with three calling sequences (all I have to deal with anyway): 1) B = repmat(A, m, n) 2) B = repmat(A, [m n]) 3) B = repmat(A, n) In all cases, A is the fill value, m is number of rows, and n is number of

Hi, I am trying to make my own package in Windows XP with R 1.9.1. using Rcmd build/ Rcmd. The initial Rcmd build compiles ok with no error messages. However, when I run Rcmd check it runs ok up until * checking for file 'GammaTest/DESCRIPTION' ... OK * checking if this is a source package ... OK * checking whether package 'GammaTest' can be installed ... ERROR Installation

Dear All, using R is noticed that I would benefit by going back to the books and "refresh" my linear algebra and calculus. Has anybody suggestions on which books are better as reference on the two these two topics? I was thinking to get Lang's "A First Course in Calculus", but I I have no idea what could be a good one for linear algebra. Something detailed and clear

Hi, I am trying to run a very computationally expensive procedure in R-2.0.0. and the process always gets killed after approx 8 minutes. This procedure calls some of my own C++ code - in case it was this code causing a memory leak I unload and then reload the .so file every time, however I still get the same problem. The procedure is run 16000 times and always calls the lm() function. My

Hi, Does anyone know a method for adding a linear/polynominal trend to a simulated arima model using the arima.sim function? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Cheers, Sam.

Dear all, I have found some serious bugs in the knnFinder package (which supports data structures and algorithms for both exact and approximate nearest neighbor searching in arbitrarily high dimensions) that may trigger segmentation faults. I have fixed them but I had troubles to contact its maintainer Samuel E. Kemp (previously with the University of Glamorgan, UK). Do someone know where I

Hi, Does anyone know of a pre-existing function where I can get the t-test confidence interval for a given mean, sd, degrees of freedom and confidence limit. I do NOT want to run any data through the t.test function. Kind regards, Sam. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, I am considering whether or not to buy an apple mac. I have noticed on one of the R FAQs for Mac OS X that you cannot install packages from other OS's if C++ code is contained. My question is: Is it possible to build the package sources containing C++ code on the Mac and then install them? Thanks in advance, Sam.

Hi, In the getGraphicsEvent function the (x,y) co-ordinates returned from the mouse move are in relation to where the mouse is located within the device window (i.e. the lower left corner of the window is '(0,0)', the upper right is '(1,1)'). Is there a way of returning the (x,y) co-ordinates of data points plotted where instead of x and y being the actual data points they are

Hi, I was wondering if anybody might have a reference for me: My R code is growing and getting more and more confusing. Thus, I figure it's time to switch to object-oriented again. I have done oo programming in C++ and Java before but the first few tutorial on R oo were a bit confusing for me. Is there any brief tutorial on oo programming in R especially for people who have done oo in Java

Hi, Being relatively new to OO programming and not so old on R, I noticed the possibility to do OO programming in R. But it seems there is two "paradigms" S3 that seems the old one but is the one used in the R.oo package and S4 which seems more recent As a starting point, which one is best to use? Is R.oo useful? what are the main difference between the two? Any feedback
