I can't get identify to work, using R 2.0.1 under windows xp pro, service pack 2. Here's what I enter, and the result: > plot((our.frame2$c1),(our.frame2$c9)) # Produces desired plot > identify(our.frame2$c1) # Plot comes to forefront, so I select a point warning: no point with 0.25 inches numeric(0) Is my call to identify correct?

I've looked every way I can think of for help on trellis.datasets, but nothing comes up for me. Please help me find information on what is included, and how to get at those data. Thanks. Dave Parkhurst

I'm using R in a statistics class, and when I project the console, the font is smaller than ideal. I've checked the faq's, the manual, and the help system as best I can, and I don't see how to change the font size. Can it be changed from within a session, or will I have to ask the folks who installed the program on the server I use in classes to set it (assuming that can be

I'm having a weird problem with length(), in R1.6.1 under windows2000. I have a dataframe called byyr, with ten columns, the first of which is named cnd95. summary(byyr) shows that byyr$cnd95 contains the factor level "tr" 66 times. Also, when I enter byyr$cnd95 at the command line, I can count 66 "tr" elements in the resulting vector. However, when I enter n95trt <-

In trying to execute this line in R (Version 1.7.1 (2003-06-16), under windows XP pro), with the randomForest library (about two weeks old) loaded, the program crashed: bost4rf <- rfImpute(TargetDensity~.,data=bost4rf0) Specifically, an XP dialog box popped up, saying ?R for windows GUI front-end has encountered a problem and needs to close.? That was the dialog saying asking whether I

A few days ago I asked whether there were options other than na.action=na.fail for the R port of Breiman?s randomForest; the function?s help page did not say anything about other options. I have since discovered that a pdf document called ?The randomForest Package? and made available by Andy Liaw (who made the tool available in R---thank you) does discuss an option. It is an implementation of

looking at ways to return an archive, by year/month in the past, (via php) i''d do something like pull all the entries, ordered by date and iterate through them, doing a check on the month and year and adding them to an array if there was a change that method doesn''t really feel very fluid or rails-like. any suggestions?

I'm using R 2.0.1 in a class I teach, with most students working under windows XP. We have a data frame with the first column containing the factor "site," and five water-quality variables at each site. As one part of exploring these data, I'd like the students to run by(ourdata,site,pairs). When I try that, however, the pairs plots for the first 10 sites scroll past, and

After entering ?library(rpart)?, I tried to plot an existing rpart tree, and got this error message: Error: couldn't find function "plot.rpart". However, ??plot.rpart? does bring up the help for the function. The same things occur for text.rpart, although print(my.tree) does work. So, I tried to re-install rpart using Packages | Install from CRAN, but then I get this

Greetings: I am trying to work with spdep (everything is "brand new" downloaded this morning). OS = Windows 2000 (also up to date). The code I am using follows: #example gal.county=read.geoda("lnpilnd.GAL", row.names=NULL, skip=0) summary.nb(gal.county) Error in summary.nb(gal.county) : Not a neighbours list #end The gal file works just fine in GeoDa (also up to date).

Greetings: I would like to make a table with descriptive statistics for a data.frame. I guess the question is how can I put together, in a table, the results from, say: apply(df, 2, mean, na.rm =T) apply(df, 2, median, na.rm =T) .......

With the problem below, I've discoved that n95trt<-length(byyr$cnd95[byyr$cnd95=="tr"&!is.na(byyr$cnd95)]) does give me the correct count for the number of "tr" entries. (The same behavior occurs for the "c" level of the cnd95 factor.) It appears that byyr$cnd95=="tr" is finding both "tr" AND NA entries. Is this a bug, or is it to be

The help page for randomForest shows na.action=na.fail as a parameter, and does not describe other possibilities for na.action. I have a regression problem, with about 1000 rows in my data frame, and with an NA in occasional predictor variables, in about 5% of rows. I would like to have all rows included in the analysis, to the extent possible. (That seems to be possible in rpart, for example.)

I'm using R 1.8.0 under windows XP. I can't get certain of the graphics devices set up. For example, when I copy this line directly from the "postscript" help screen, I get the error messages that follow it: > postscript("foo.ps") Error in PS(file, old$paper, old$family, old$encoding, old$bg, old$fg, : unable to start device PostScript In addition:

R Version 1.7.0, under windows XP pro The help page for update.packages says that { `download.packages' takes a list of package names and a destination directory, downloads the newest versions of the package sources and saves them in `destdir'. If the list of available packages is not given as argument, it is also directly obtained from CRAN. If CRAN is local, i.e., the URL starts with

Greetings: I am unsuccessful in suppressing "Given : myvariable" from a coplot. There was such a question in the past but the thread breaks down. I am sure this is a "for dummies" question :-). I tried: coplot(myvar~myvar | myvar, show.given=FALSE, xlab="....", ylab="...", main=" ") and some other variations (including without main=" ")

I'm using R 2.0.1 under windows XP. I'd like to produce an xyplot with lattice, in which the x axis shows normally (with tics and numbers), but there are neither tics nor numbers for y. (I'm using layout=c(1,10), and ylab="".) From the html help for xyplot, it appears I need to use the scales argument, but I don't fully understand the description there, about how to

Greetings: I am trying to find a package/solution for panel (longitudinal) data analysis. Unfortunately it seems I don't know where to start. Could somebody offer a hint?

At work I have no permission to install R. So, would anyone know whether it is possible to create a CD with a running R-installation for a windows(XP) pc? And of course, how to? Thank you for your help, Hans van Walen
