HI, sorry but i don't understand how to make a function with as.function() formula<-"2+3*x" formu<-as.symbol(formula) > formu 2+3*x formul<-as.function(alist(x=,formu)) curve(formul,1,5,col="blue") Error in xy.coords(x, y, xlabel, ylabel, log) : x and y lengths differ > typeof(formul) [1] "closure" and not plot the curve function, Why?

Is there any package similar to the XML package that is able to "extract" relevant information from HTML files. Namely, I'm interested in obtained data that is represented as a HTML table, into some R-type structure.

Hi, don' t understand why the function fomula have this error, i enclose the parameter "a" with the function I() Thank Ruben x<-1:5 y<-c( 2 ,4 , 6 , 8 ,11) formu<-y~I(a*x) form<-formula(formu) dummy<-data.frame(x=x,y=y) fm<-lm(form,data=dummy) Error in unique(c("AsIs", oldClass(x))) : Object "a" not found

Can someone please explain to me why the dates get shifted by one day when I create an its ( irregular time-series ) object from a matrix for which I've assigned row names. E.g. in the example run below, why does the its object have dates one-shifted from my original dates? > install.packages('its') > install.packages('Hmisc') > require(its) > m <-

Dear R-users, I'm felling kind of blocked on a quite simple problem and I wonder if someone could give me a help with it. My problem: x[0] = 100 x[1] = (1+v[1])*x[0] x[2] = (1+v[2])*x[1] ... i.e. x[i] = (1+v[i])*x[i-1] and x[0]=k Given a set of v values I wanted to obtain the corresponding x values in an efficient way (i.e. without a for loop). For instance, if x[0] = 100 and v =

Deall all, We need to perform a statistical analysis of a large database (40,000 entries with approximately 500 fields in each entry) currently handled in Oracle. The data contains categorical variables only. At the current stage we suggest classification and clustering analysis. We are planning to perform the analysis in R and would be very grateful for any

Regarding a previous question concerning the kmeans function I've tried the same example and I also get a strange result (at least according to what is said in the help of the function kmeans). Apparently, the function is disregarding the initial cluster centers one gives it. According to the help of the function: centers: Either the number of clusters or a set of initial cluster

I'm trying to obtain a set of regression lines obtained for different values of a factor using lattice. I would like to add a string to each panel showing the R^2 value of the respective line, but I'm having difficulties positioning the text (namely on which coordinates to give to the "ltext" function). Here is what I'm using (I've used ?? for the things I would like

Hi. I frequently use RMySQL package to interface R with MySQL databases. I was having a try with package DBI and I got the following error: > library(RMySQL) > library(DBI) > drv <- dbDriver("MySQL") > ch <- dbConnect(drv, dbname="mydb", user="myuser", password="mypasswd") > ibm <- dbGetQuery(ch,"select * from table where

I'm having some problems with valid field names when using RMySQL to interface R (version 1.7.0, under RedHat9.0), to MySQL (4.1.0-alpha). I think I've spotted the problem and a solution (which is working for me), but I wanted to share this with you as I may be missing something. (Note: I'm aware that this is an old R version, but I've checked the code of the lastest version of

Dear R list, I'm having some problems with font encodings when using R+Sweave+Latex in my native language: Portuguese.

Dear all, I've recently encountered a strange behaviour when using R with portuguese accented characters. The most curious aspect is that using the same code with ESS under XEmacs the behaviour is different.

I am running some models (for the first time) using rpart and am getting results I don't know how to interpret.

Hi All, I am interested in learning about people's experience with R training or courses. What worked, what didn't? What do you recommend? Also, if there any groups or individuals that have and can offer R training courses, please contact me directly. I would like to learn about your services. Thanks for your input and help. Please feel free to contact me directly. Russ

Hello to everybody, Does anyone has implemented a function for evaluating models using windowing strategies, such as growing window or sliding window ones? The aim is to evaluate regression models on a time series data. I do not use cross-validation once data sorted in a radom way does not make sense when evaluating time series. Thanks Joao Moreira

I'm trying to create figures in PDF that use the 'gray' colormodel instead of the default 'RGB' model, by requirements of a publisher. My problem has to do with the fact that I'm not being able to get gray colors with this option on the pdf() driver. Here is a small example for problem replication: > R.version _ platform

Dear R-user, I wish to know if someone is using R as concern Datamining or KDD (Knowledge Discovery in Database) and if already exists a R package specialized in this kind of analysis. I found this contributes on the R web site: [20] Diego Kuonen. Introduction au data mining avec R : vers la reconqu??te du `knowledge discovery in databases' par les statisticiens. Bulletin of the Swiss

Are there any packages in R that are suitable for doing time series forecasting using neural networks? I have looked in the nnet package and neural package and they both seem geared towards classification. thanks, Spencer [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

R people, I need to know if is possible to make data mining with R. If so, is there any manual or somewhere/one to consult about that. Thank you very much Adri?n

Hello all, I came across a behavior of R with environments that I'm not sure what is causing it. It involves changing variables that are found through using model.frame on a formula inside a function. I wonder if it's a "bug" or a "feature". And in either case, how it might be managed. Here is a simple example: # let's say we have an x and y variables: temp_x
