Hello. I have an R program that calls gawk (GNU Awk 3.06 for Windows) from within pipe() to preprocess a large file before it is read into a data frame with read.table(). I've recently upgraded from Win98SE to WinXP, and have also upgraded from R1.5.0 to R1.6.1 over the past month or so. This program worked before the upgrade(s), but now fails. I observe the following sort of behavior with

(I'm reposting this message because the original has not appeared after about 2 days. Sorry if it shows up twice.) Hello. First, thanks to those who responded to my recent inquiry about using contour() over arbitrary (x,y) by mentioning the interp() function in the akima package. That worked nicely. Now for a new question: I would like to use a pair of prediction intervals to

Hi. As shown in the simplified example below, I'm having trouble allocating memory for large vectors, even though it would appear that there is more than enough memory available. That is, even with a memory limit of 1500 MB, R 2.6.1 (Win) will allocate memory for a first vector of 285 MB, but not for a second vector of the same size. Forcing garbage collection does not seem

Hello. Is there an easy-to-use contour plot function analogous to scatterplot3d that can draw handle a dataset of arbitrary (x,y,z) triplets? That is, say x, y, and z are each measured quanties, and exhibit neither order nor regularity. I looked at the lattice package function "contourplot" but it seems complicated, and it's not clear from the documentation whether it can

Hi. The following statement works fine in R-win 1.8.0, but yields a syntax error in R-win 2.0.1 (and possibly in other versions after 1.8.0): plot(c(1,2),main=expression(a==b==c)) I note that the following workaround executes successfully in both versions of R... plot(c(1,2),main=expression(a*"="*b*"="*c)) ...but I don't really understand

Hello, I have read recent posts on this topic (Dr. Ronnen Levinson's Monday 02:39:55 pm), but before I install a 64 bit system, and purchase more RAM, I want to make sure I understand this interesting issue. I was attempting to plot a data frame containing Dow Jones stock information: > length(Date) [1] 19957 > length(Close) [1] 19957 > head(DowJones) Date Open High

Hi I have the following array: test <- array(c(1:16), dim = c(3,4,3)) test ## I call some enries using an index array test.ind <- array(rbind(c(1,2,1), c(3,3,2)), dim = c(2,3)) test[test.ind] ## suppose I want all values in the 2nd row and 4th col over ## all three 3rd dimensions test[2,4,] how to specify a test.ind array with the last index left with ',' i.e test.ind should be

Hello. Is it possible to set specify the font used by legend()? I would like to specify a fixed-width font so that I can line up parts of vertically stacked curve labels. For example, it would be nice if I could align the names, ages, and weights in the following three curve labels: Bob age=7 weight=100 Alexander age=13 weight=150 Susan age=20 weight=130 Is there perhaps a clever

Hi, I need to do several matrix multiplications with the corresponding matrices forming two 3-dimentional arrays. To illustrate my problem, let's say I have the following 3-dimensional arrays: array1 <- array(1:30,dim=c(3,2,5)) array2 <- array(1:20,dim=c(2,2,5)) I know that I can get what I want with the following computation : result <- array(dim=c(dim(array1)[1],

Hello. I have an XYY series that I would like to graph with matplot() or some other single function that will do the trick. The X in question is a vector of POSIXt values obtained from strptime(). Is it possible to tell matplot() how to handle POSIXt x values? I have examined the examples at http://lark.cc.ukans.edu/~pauljohn/R/statsRus.html#5.22 , but would prefer not have to overlay the

Hi. I often wind up with many help windows cluttering my RGui screen when running Windows R 2.0.1. Is there an R instruction to close one or more help windows, or an RGui command to close all help windows? Yours truly, /Ronnen. /P.S. E-mailed CC:s of posted replies appreciated.

Hi. Is there an analog to abline() that can be used to plot a polynomial fit? For example, I can draw the straight-line fit fit <- lm(y ~ x) via abline(coef=fit$coef) but I'm not sure how to draw the polynomial fit fit <- lm(y ~ poly(x,2)) I do see the function curve(), but not how to prepare an expr for curve() based on the coefficients returned by the polynomial

Hi. I'm having a little difficulty with R1.5.1. To wit: (1) Can anyone explain the following behavior? > a=strptime("2002-06-01 12:15:01","%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S") > a [1] "2002-06-01 12:15:01" > a+0 [1] "1932-04-25 21:46:45" > a+3600 [1] "1932-04-25 22:46:45" (2) Can anyone recommend an introductory R text other than that

Hello all, I wish to perform a mcnemar test for a 3 by 3 matrix. By running the slandered R command I am getting a result but I am not sure I am getting the correct one. Here is an example code: (tt <- as.table(t(matrix(c(1,4,1 , 0,5,5, 3,1,5), ncol = 3)))) mcnemar.test(tt, correct=T) #And I get: McNemar's Chi-squared

Hi listers, I am having some trouble in a matrix multiplication... I have already checked some posts, but I didn't find my problem... I have the following code... But I am not getting the right multiplication... I checked the dimension and they are fine... id_y <- array(1:10,dim=c(2,1,5)) id_yt<-aperm(id_y,c(2,1,3)) m_id<-array(dim=c(dim(id_y)[1],dim(id_y)[1],dim(id_y)[3])) for (i in

Hi look at the following session, in which I have a dataframe, and I want to extract the second row, without the first column. Everything works as expected until the last line, where I set the names of x to NULL, and get a non-desired object (I want c(4,3).). Three questions: (1) why is as.vector(a[2,-1]) not a vector? (2) How come setting names to NULL gives me bad weirdness? (3) Can I

Dear all, I am looking for a function to count values belonging to a class within a dataframe (and ignore NAs). grp = c(1,1,1, 1,2, 2,2) val = c(2,1,5,NA,3,NA,1) dta = data.frame(grp=grp, val=val) The result should look like: grp count 1 3 2 2 At the moment, I am trying to find a function for FUN in aggregate, but with no success. Can anybody help me? Thanks in advance. Marcus
