similar to: applying a function over an array

I am trying to construct a graph of 6 box plots of blood pressures. I want them to be on a single set of axis and I want the SBP to be ontop of the DBP. I have an array bp with the data in it and I tried a[1,]<-c(145,60,147,62,140,57) a[2,]<-c(160,75,160,74,160,70) a[3,]<-c(140,55,140,65,142,55) boxplot(data.frame(a), main = "Blood Pressures", at=c(1,1,2,2,3,3),

Basically, i want to create a boxplot from population data, with a solid line for the median, and then a dotted line for a specific persons value. Is there a way to artificially introduce another line or mark of some kind in a box plot? Thanks again for all of yoru help. Hopefully soon I wont have to keep bugging you all. ~Erithid :-p

I just asked a question. If I was too vague, then i am sorry. I dont expect anyone to help me, but I thought that it was ok to put the question out there in case someone wanted to help me. I didnt expect abject hostility for it. Human decency was the only thing I did expect. If my question was a pain,badly formatted, or too juvinile, then i have no problem being ignored.I asked a question

Dear all, I have a for loop which includes nls model estimation. The loop breaks after the first non-convergence error. How can I make the loop continue and try to estimate all models? I suppose it should be sth like: if(...) { next } but I have no idea how to setup the arguements... Thank you! Irene

Dear list, I have the function (as a simple example, which is actually part of a larger function) pres.test<-function(N0=N0, N1=N1) { dt<-5 r<-log(N1/N0)/dt r } which calculates the annual growth rates in a population Where N0 is the population classified into age intervals, say 5 years, at time=1995, and N1 is the population by 5 year age classes at time=2000.

Dear All, I am trying to iterate an iterative process (i know R is not the best place for so much looping but i have to so tough!) and store the resulting data from each iteration to then be graphed. In simple form the script looks like this for(i in tracks) { a <- (subset(data, data$Id==i)) result.dataset <- function(a, other.arguements) ### this function is the other

Dear R helpers: I like to apply deparse(substitute()) on multiple arguments to collect the names of the arguments into a character vector. I used function test.fun as below. it works when there is only one input argument. but it does not work for multiple arguements. can someone kindly help? test.fun <- function(...){deparse(substitute(...))} test.fun(x) #this works test.fun(x,y,z) # I like

I'm going to have to be a little vague on this one, but hope I provide enough to make the question clear. I'm not doing the work on this server, a co-worker is, but I said I would ask for him. He is trying to get DRBD installed. He's using Centos 5.1 and the yum repos, but is getting problems with things like the kernel, drbd.so, and the likes. All install fine, but I'm not

Dear R-help forum members, Suppose I have a data-frame having two variables and single data for each of them, as described below. variable_1           variable_2         10                          20 I have written a function, say, 'fun' which uses input 10 and 20 and gives me desired result. fun = function(X, Y)          {          X + Y              #( I am just giving an example of

R users, I was a bit surprised to find that when I attempted to add a polynomial term to a linear model using either lm or glm as could be done in S resulted in a fit without that term included and without warning(!!), e.g. > lm(response ~ x + x^2, data). As far as I can gather, there is no poly() yet in R, and if lm/glm do not allow functions of variables as their formula arguements, is

First of all great job on diax. I downloaded it and tried it, could not connect, got an authentication rejected,but I have not had a chance to figure out why yet - tried with a working gnophone setup in the configuration files. Is there any way to pass command line arguements to the program ? Where I see a real niche for a lightweight softphone is being able to serve the thing from a

Hi, I'm trying to compute survey svytable statistic on subsets by using the svyby function. Here is the code: b<-svyby(~V024+V751, by=~V025, design=strat2, svytable, round=TRUE) The vars, V024, V751 and V025 are factors. The by var has 2 levels, and hence there will be two subsets. strat2 is created by the svydesign function. It's giving me the following error: >

Hi, I need some help with making a function a bit more elegant. How would you all suggest avoiding the problem I've made myself below - I've written a function that creates a temporary matrix by subseting a larger one I assign it. I then call vectors from that matrix, add each item in the vector to create a cumulative vector for each factor, and then patch them all back together.

Hi i'm using asterisk in a pre-paid calling card like system and have a few questions. 1) Should i use Voice T1's or PRI. Please give arguements for and against. 2) is there any already configured * scripts for making calling card calls? are they GPL or Commercial? 3) if they are GPL where can i get my hands on them. 4) is there any work on intergrating openDSP libraries into *? found

I am failing to get Named started. I copied my named.custom and zone files to a diskette from my 3.3 build. I installed 4.0 from scratch and did the updates. I edited /etc/named.conf (which I realize is a link) to include named.custom I cp named.custom into /etc (all of this was done while logged in as root) When I try to start named from the services GUI (using GNOME) and I get this error:

I am completely new to R, but have some bg in cs and stat. since R has an interactive programming environment, I thought I could write my command in a file and run it in batch mode in the Rgui. but it didnt work. I checked the doc. it said Rcmd BATCH inputfile. it didnt work either. Can someone help? thank you. thank you. also if you can shed some light on passing command line arguements (like

Not thinking about migrating back due to issues, it is more due to implementation needs and a little situation I have been wrestling with with for a bit now, and would love some feedback First a little history: We currently have 10 locations connected via a dedicated 1/2 T-1. Last year I migrated from a WINNT domain to a Samba/LDAP domain. It has been running great. Basically did this for

Dear R-users I intend to create a function which calls some smaller other functions in return. Some of these smaller functions all call some functions. I do not know a good way to do this. I tried using the source() function to include the smaller functions within the main functions before they are called. This does not work, or maybe i am not doing the right thing. For example: the
