Hi Is there a maximum length for the character string representing a level of a factor? I have a set of several million variables, each a factor of length 19. Each factor level is a character string which in some cases can be many thousands of characters long. I am trying to find out why my analysis fails - I just wanted to rule out the possibility that the internal factor conversion has a

Does anyone know if the survreg function in the survival package can fit numerical covariates ? When I fit a survival model of the form survreg( Surv(time,censored) ~ x ) then x is always treated as a factor even if it is numeric (and even if I try to force it to be numeric using as.numeric(x). Thus, in the particular example I am analysing, a simple numerical covariate becomes a factor

Does anyone know a way to do the following: Save a large number of R objects to a file (like load() does) but then read back only a small named subset of them . As far as I can see, load() reads back everything. The context is: I have an application which will generate a large number of large matrices (approx 15000 matrices each of dimension 2000*30). I can generate these matrices using an

Dear R-help We have a regression problem which could be solved elegantly if we could figure out how to get the R residuals() function to accept missing dependent variables. We have ~20000 gene-expression vectors y, each being measured on the same set of individuals, but each having a small random number of missing values. For each expression vector we wish to search across the genome

I have been struggling with this problem for a while and I hope someone could help me. Or if someone could point me to a section in the manual I would be grateful. x <- "my" plot(1:10, main=expression(paste( x, Delta, "values" ))) Q : How do I get the title to say "my (triangle symbol) values" ? The following trial-and-error produced mainly errors :

I am running Samba on Solaris 2.6 and am connecting to it from Windows NT4.0. Whilst running some Access software the database is initially accessed without problem but part way through processing I get the report that the database file cannot be accessed since it is exclusively opened by another user. I cannot then read the database at all until I log out of Windows then back in. All is

hello Another beginners question..... I've been googling through the icecast archives looking for information on how icecast handles multiple clients. Haven't been able to find what I'm looking for. Could someone please explain (or direct me to links) what happens to the upload bandwidth of a box running icecast, when more than one client connects? For example, if a box on a 128kbps

I have a set of data that is not normally distributed and for which I need to build a model. So, I tried the lrm function from the design-package. The first run went well, and I got the following results: Wald Statistics Response: RVCL2PROC.mott Factor Chi-Square d.f. P TTV.mott (Factor+Higher Order Factors) 69.01 4

hello list I'm preparing to do a sound project in china where I hope to broadcast an mp3 stream using Icecast2. I've set up test system (outside China) and it seems to be working happily (using Pd to generate audio and the extension "shoutcast~" to stream to the icecast server). I've asked a few people in china to tune into these broadcasts and have run into problems.

Hi The cor function in the stats package calculates the correlation between columns of data, does anyone know if it is at all possible to calculate the correlation between rows instead ? Or is there an appropriate package or function that is more appropriate I'd like to calculate spearman & pearson correlations between rows. Many thanks Jason -- --------------------------------

Tried with http://zhongshuobeijing.dyndns.org:7000/streamname.m3u but was blocked. And at last resolve: http://139.168.32.224:7000/streamname.m3u is that what you mean? no, perhaps you mean the localhost? "bicho" is its name. Pardon me if i'm confused on this. Will also, tomorrow, try your suggestion of port 443 and Ross' suggestion of the web port. cheers, iain On Wed,

thanks geoff - Yes, I had disabled the <alias source="/" dest="/status.xsl"/> in the config. To answer your question: If the mountpoint is set to "radio.mp3" and the host tag is set for a local broadcast. ie.: <hostname>localhost</hostname> (for testing purposes), this is what happens when I enter "http://localhost:7000/" into a browser:
