Dear R users; I am trying to write a small program which reads in a data set, and selects observations from certain years before the analysis. I have a problem including the selection criteria in the header of the program. Here is the problem; dataFIT<-function(MODEL, MARGINS, yearConsidered){ library(foreign CovPaper<-read.spss("C:/Data/data.sav") NewData <-

Dear R users, I would like to sample from a mixture distribution p1*f(x1)+p2*f(x2). I usually sample variates from both distributions and weight them with their respective probabilities, but someone told me that was wrong. What is the correct way? Vumani

Dear R users: I have the following matrix. 0 1 1 0 1 0 2 1 0 3 0 0 I would like to spread the matrix such that whenever the row sum is greater than 1 the row is repeated the number of times given by the row sum. Furthermore I would like to split the following cases: 0 1 1 such that it map to the following matrix 0 1 0 0 0 1 such that each row adds up to 1. I have no problems with cases

it is easy to fit a distribution using fitdistr poisdata <- rpois(n = 100, lambda = 2) poismle <- fitdistr(poisdata, "Poisson") poismle but i would like to know whether its possible to get an identical result using glm. I use poistab <- data.frame(table(poisdata)) colnames(poistab) <- c("width","freq"); poistab[,"width"] <-

Dear R users, I have a desktop computer and a laptop, both of them with Ubuntu Lucid. The former has R2.10 installed from Ubuntu repositories (this is the most recent version in the repositories), while the latter has R2.13 from the CRAN repositories. I noticed that postscript files generated with R2.10 are "better" than files generated with the latest release of R, in particular for

Dear R users: I am not entirely convinced that clogit gives me the correct result when I use pspline() and maybe you could help correct me here. When I add a constant to my covariate I expect only the intercept to change, but not the coefficients. This is true (in clogit) when I assume a linear in the logit model, but the same does not happen when I use pspline(). If I did something similar

Dear all; I am trying to use HMISC imputation function to perform multiple imputations on my data and I keep on getting errors for the code given in the help files. When using "aregImpute" the error is; >f <- aregImpute(~y + x1 + x2 + x3, n.impute=100) Loading required package: acepack Iteration:1 Error in .Fortran("wclosepw", as.double(w), as.double(x),

Dear R users; I would like to convert a series of vectors to matrices in the following way; (2,1,1) to a matrix 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 The idea is that the column sum of the matrix should be equal to the elements of the vector. Thanks. Vumani

Dear R users, I have a matrix with 2 columns with the variables: "daughter index", "mother index". I would like to draw a network digraph using this data, where each daughter is connected to a mother and between the connections inlcude a circle with the information on the indices ("daughter index", "mother index"): i.e. something similar to graphs

Hello. Until today I've been using R2.9 and since today R2.10 (on a PC). In both of them it takes about 20 sec for the prompt to appear IN R console after I start R. And every time it says: "Previous saved work space restored" - even if I have not saved any workspace or, in case of R2.10 - even though I have not used it once. In the older versions - R would start within 2-3 sec. Is

Dear Listers, I am trying to use "rbinom" in my C code, but i always get zeros as output no matter the probability. Am not sure what I am doing wrong because the function has worked before. Attached in an example. Noticed that "rbinom" expects 'n' to be REAL. Regards, Vumani R 2.3.1 (2006-06-01) Windows XP Gcc /* Called this file binom.c and then ran rcmd shlib on it

Dear listers, Am currently using MCMC approaches to estimate some parameters of my model. One parameter has to be updated using a tuned gamma distribution. So at each iteration I estimate the mean and variance of the density of the gamma approximation using "vmmin" (i also supply the gradient argument). For moderate replications the procedure works, but if I increase them R crashes.

Dear R-Help, I'm hoping to find a Multinomial Nested Logit package in R. It would be great to find something analogous to "PROC MDC" in SAS: > The MDC (Multinomial Discrete Choice) procedure analyzes models > where the > choice set consists of multiple alternatives. This procedure > supports conditional logit, > mixed logit, heteroscedastic extreme value,

Dear R users: Is there any R analogue for the S+ function "na.gam.replace". I would like to make an interaction of a categorical and smooth continuous covariate. Thanks. Vumani Dlamini Central Statistical Office Swaziland

Dear useRs, Am trying to use xtable on the following data.frame and I don't get what I expect: example.table <- data.frame(rbind( c("Gender"," "," "," "), cbind(rep(" ",2),c("Male","Female"),c(3.0,4.0),c(3/7,4/7)) )) colnames(example.table) <- c(" "," ","number of

Hello, I'm using R2.10 on Windows 2000 and I'm having trouble installing the 'hash' library.

Dear R-users: I asked a question on how I can have a universal legend in a plot and received the following result. I tried using "layout" but I can't seem to work on the "empty" plot (where I have to have the legend). I tried "oma" but I couldn't improve the quality of the plot, and that I didn't know how to specify all the line types using the

Dear R users, I am trying to convert a dataset from one format to several rectangular datasets. A consultant helped design the data entry program for our survey using Delphi/Pascal and for each household the information is stored in a file called "EA-HM-HH.TXT" where EA is the enumeration area number, HM is the homestead number and HH is the household number. Within this file the

I have 3 nested functions, the core function goes like this: listx<-function(x,tox) { xt=table(x) wa=sort(unique(x,fromLast=FALSE)) print(xt) print(wa) ...... return(kk) } listx get called in functionB, and functionB get called in functionC. When I test functionB, the listx function works just fine. When I call functionB from functionC, strange thing happened: My result for xt: 0.07 0.17

Dear R users, I would like to edit my graphics in Illustrator. I know that I can set up almost every graph parameter in R, but the time I will spend searching for the correct settings might not be worth since I'm quite used to Illustrator and since I will in any case use Illustrator to prepare for publication. Up to now, I've used savePlot() with type=("eps") but I'm
