Use of MathJax (or something similar) in .Rd files
Hi All,
After some tinkering, and with support from Duncan, I put together a package that allows for easy inclusion of MathJax equations in Rd files. The package has been submitted to CRAN, but those who want to try this out already can get it here:
https://github.com/wviechtb/mathjaxr
or in other words:
install.packages("remotes")

Use of MathJax (or something similar) in .Rd files
Thanks Gabor and Duncan! It works. For those interested, I added this to the beginning of the \details{} section:
\if{html}{\out{
<script id="MathJax-script" async
src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/mathjax at 3/es5/tex-mml-chtml.js">
</script>
}}
And then I can use:
\if{html}{\out{\(B_{x(a,b)} = \int_0^x t^{a-1} (1-t)^{b-1} dt\)}}

Compiling R-devel - missing some expected features (zlib, bzlib, lzma, PCRE)
Hi All,
I am compiling R-devel on Linux (Ubuntu 16.04.2) and that works just fine, but I am missing some of the expected features, as shown here:
https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-devel/R-admin.html#Linux
In particular, after configure (using all defaults), I see:
R is now configured for x86_64-pc-linux-gnu

Finding Missing Data Patterns
Dear R-Helpers,
I have a large data matrix, which contains missing data. The matrix
looks something like this:
1) X X X X X X NA NA NA
2) NA NA NA NA X X X X X
3) NA NA X X X X NA NA NA
4) X X X X X X X X X
5) X X NA NA X NA NA NA NA
and so on. Notice that the first row starts with complete data but ends
with missing. The second row starts with missing, but the rest is

Interesting. I gave this a try, but couldn't make this work. One would have to infuse something like

</script>
or

Density of non-central t distribution
Hello Everybody,
Is there a function available for calculating the density of a
non-central t distribution? (dt does not accept the ncp option).
Thanks in advance!

Optional data argument for a function
Dear All,
I am working on a function that has an optional data argument, just like lm(). If the user sets the data argument equal to some dataframe, then the function should look inside the dataframe for the variables given to other arguments, otherwise the variables should be accessible from what I believe is called the parent frame from which the function was called. I looked at the source code

refline in forest() {metafor}
Hello all,
I am using forest.rma to plot a random effects model meta-analysis. I noticed
that refline sets a vertical line indicating the null hypothesis.
Is there a way to draw another vertical line, possibly dashed, centered on the
summary estimate?
Prof. Viechtbauer, if you happen to read this, I'd like to thank you for making
an excellent package. I have been using the metafor package

Outer with Three Vectors
Hello,
outer() is great for avoiding things like:
for (val1 in val1s) {
for (val2 in val2s)) {
x[i,j] <- somefunction(val1, val2)
}
}
The same can be obtained with:
outer(val1s, val2s, somefunction)
But what if there are three (or more) sets of values to loop over? Any
way of avoiding the loops then?
Thanks,

"metafor" package, proportions: single groups wrt to a categorical dependent variable
Dear Dushanthi,
Please keep your e-mails on the R-Help list, where Michael has already given you some excellent advice. As Michael already explained, metafor can handle proportions, but does not have any specific functionality for categorical variables with more than 2 levels (at the moment). So, if it is logical and possible to do so, you could collapse the levels of the categorical outcome to 2

Changing pch spacing
Hello R-Helpers,
plot(x, y, type="b", pch="1")
plots x vs. y with both a line and the symbol "1" but how do I change
the "spacing" of the symbol being plotted. In other words, I don't want
to plot the "1" at every data point, but only at every kth point (things
get too cluttered when there are many data points). Thanks in advance!

xyTable(x,y) versus table(x,y) with NAs

How many (2,3)s do we have? At least one, the third entry, but the fourth
entry, (2,NA), is possibly a (2,3) so we don't know and make the count NA.

OK. We have now three suggestions to repair the text:
- remove the text
- add "not" at the beginning of the text
- add at the end of the text a warning; something like:

in general not correct, and hence also the t values and the p value.
Also the number of degrees of freedom is not correct. (The parameter

Metafor "SMCR" Pre-Post Effect sizes
Dear all,
I am very grateful that Wolfgang Viechtbauer implemented the standardised mean change for dependent
groups. I was playing around a bit today, and I am not sure if I understand the "SMCR" procedure correctly. The documentation states that sd1i and sd2i are needed, but it seems to me that SMCR is ignoring sd2i (so Variances are not pooled). Instead, it uses sd1i (pre-test sd),
