Dear R help I have been trying to conduct a chi square test on two groups of variables to test whether there is any relationship between the two sets of variables chisq.test(oxygen, train) Pearson's Chi-squared test data: oxygen X-squared = 26.6576, df = 128, p-value = 1 > chisq.test(oxygen) Pearson's Chi-squared test data: oxygen X-squared = 26.6576, df = 128,

Dear R I recently performed a cluster analysis. It produced the dendogram no problem but unfortunately the font size of the row.names were all cluttered due to their large size So I tried to change the font size using plclust(cluster.results, labels=iris$specie, cex=0.8) and R came back to me saying Error in plclust(cluster.results, labels = iris$specie, cex = 0.8) : unused argument(s)

Dear R I recently did a scatterplot matrix using the following command pairs(sleep[c("SlowSleep", "ParaSleep", "logbw", "logbrw", "loglife", "loggest")],col=1+as.integer(ParaSleep > 5.5 | SlowSleep > 15.7)) this highlighted outlying points for some of the x,y plots that I needed to identify. Unfortunately this highlights all the x,y

Dear R I recently asked for a cluster analysis Using * cluster.results <- hclust(iris.dist, method="complete") * but nothing happened i.e the previous scatterplot matrix still showed up whereas I was expecting a dendogram. Could it be that because I had used cutree before on the scatter plots that it somehow mucked it up. I tried detach then attach and commenced making the data

Dear R Can you tell me how to change the working directory of R It's just that I have some text files that I wish to save separately from the R filing structure eg. into C:/my documents and need to change the working directory of R so that it reads these files . This means if I ever upgrade the current version of R nothing will be effected. brett Brett Stansfield Environmental Scientist -

can you recommend a good manual for R that starts with a data set and gives demonstrations on what can be done using R? I downloadedR Langauage definition and An introduction to R but haven't found them overly useful. I'd really like to be able to follow some tutorials using a dataset or many datasets. The datasets I have available on R are Data sets in package 'datasets':

Dear R, I recently did a canonical correlation analysis on two subsets of data (location and weather). So I now have canonical scores for location and weather. but I'd now like to do a scatterplot matrix using the pairs statement. Is there a way to somehow join location.U and weather.V to become a new data set from which I could undertake a scatterplot matrix of the canonical variates?

Dear R What does NaN mean?

can you tell me how to ask R to analyse a subset of data eg. supposing the data set consists of 9 columns and I only want R to analyse columns 1, 3 and 5 how would I command R to conduct eg. boxplots of those variables only? thanks brett Brett Stansfield Environmental Scientist - Water Quality Hawke's Bay Regional Council 102 Vautier Street Private Bag 6006 Napier Phone (06) 835-9200

Dear R help Is there a way for R to ignore NA entries in a data set. I find I can do box plots for certain columns that have no NA entries but cannot do histograms or boxplots for the other columns that have NA entries Brett Stansfield

type ?cor and read the help file In particular read it till you find the entry that tells you how to deal with missing observations. You need to do this because as you get more competent you will undoubdtedly come across other issues, so learning the format of the help and realising why you need to check the Arguments section will reduce your frustration in the future. You also need to read the
