Generating artificial datasets with a specific correlation coefficient.
I need to create artificial datasets with specific correlation  
coefficients (i.e. a dataset that returns r = 0.30, etc.) as examples  
for a lab I am teaching this summer.  Is there a way to do that in R?
Thanks.

plane3d
I am attempting to fit a logistic regression plane to a 3-D scatterplot 
(which was generated using scatterplot3d).  I've noticed that the help 
pages of scatterplot3d include a function titled "plane3d."  However, 
when I attempt to use the function, I get the following message:
Error: couldn't find function "plane3d"

Error message when using zero-inflated count regression model in package zicounts
I have data on number of vines per tree for ~550 trees.  Over half of  
the trees did not have any vines and the data is fairly skewed  
(median = 0, mean = 1.158, 3rd qu. = 1.000).  I am attempting to  
investigate whether plot location (four sites), species (I'm using  
only the four most common species), or tree dbh has a significant  
influence on the number of vines per tree.  When I

Extracting sums for individual factors in data frames
I have a data frame with two columns, one of which is a factor

area).  Here's a sample:

Forcing best-fit lines to go through the origin
Dear All,
I have a rather unusual problem.  I have a set of data for a class in 
subsurface processes.  From that dataset, I must calculate the slope of 
the best-fit line (which is the parameter of interest).  The problem I 
have is twofold: 1) for the purposes of the exercise, I must force my 
best-fit line to go through the origin (0,0), and 2) the line must be 
linear, even though the data is

choosing between Poisson regression models: no interactions vs. interactions
R gurus,
I'm working on data analysis for a small project.  My response  
variable is total vines per tree (median = 0, mean = 1.65, min = 0,  
max = 24).  My predictors are two categorical variables (four sites  
and four species) and one continuous (tree diameter at breast height  
(DBH)).  The main question I'm attempting to answer is whether or not  
the species identity of a tree has

Partial F-test comparing full and reduced regression models
Dear all:
I have a regression model that has collinearity problems (between three 
regressor variables).  I need a F-test that will allow me to compare 
between full (with all variables) and partial models (minus 1=< 
variables).  The general F-test formula I'm using is:
F = {[SS(full model) - SS(reduced model)] / (#variables taken out)} / 
MSS(full model)

Aid with 3-D scatterplots
I am attempting to classify pixels from a Landsat image by using their 
associated numbers in bands 2, 3, and 4 (It's from an assignment on 
classification).  To aid me, I want to create a 3-D scatterplot using 
the "cloud" command.  Due to my ignorance of the finer plotting 
functions, I am unable to display the scale on the three axes or to

RODBC and Table views
This question relates to the use of the RODBC package for retrieving data
from a MS Access database. It is quite easy to retrieve data sitting in
tables but is it possible to select from views based on these tables? The
archives do not touch on this point.
sqlTables() lets me see tables and views but only the tables yield data. Do

Doing partial-f test for stepwise regression

Upgrading R means I lose my packages
The title says it all.  Does anyone know of a way to save your  
packages when you upgrade to a new version of R?  This may seem petty,  
but I'm accumulating enough packages that having to download and  
install each of them anew every time I install a new version of R is  
rather of a pain.  Ideally, I would like the new version of R to  
recognize the packages I've installed on the

Using XY location data to calculate ecological parameters
Dear R gurus,
I have XY data giving the locations of tree seedlings that were  
surveyed during a 210 meter belt transect.  This belt transect was  
taken by stretching a line across the field, then measuring all  
seedlings within 1 meter on either side of the line.  The end result  
was XY coordinates and height for ~1,300 seedlings.  I would like to  
use that data to calculate density of

No subject
We are looking for another solution besides Samba, which will allow our
application developers using Windows 95/98/NT to access share on our Sun Box
running Solaris 2.6 operating systems. Our supervisor feels the Samba
installation process is more complex than what we really need.
Any suggestions?

rebuilding anaconda for centos 4.0
Hi all:
I'm trying to rebuild the anaconda installer for Centos 4.0 (i386) to add some

anaconda rebuilds for Tao Linux 1.0, and I'm bringing those bits forward into
