Dear All, I distributed the HTML style one year ago ( http://www.biosino.org/pages/newhtm/r/schtml and http://www.biosino.org/pages/newhtm/r/tchtml). Now I polished it, and rewrote it with Latex. You can download it from the URL: http://www.biosino.org/R/R-doc/ ( http://www.biosino.org/R/R-doc/files/R-intro_cn.pdf). Wish it will be useful for Chinese R users. Any

A colleague from China is visiting our lab is working with us on some R-based remote sensing projects, and he was curious if there is a r-help listserv in Chinese and, if not, if it would be possible to set one up? I didn't see one listed on the Mailing List page on the cran-r website. Thanks! --j

Hi, Prevously, I set up Office 2000 with out outlook and frontpage sucessfully. Aftert that, I installed OUTLOOK and Frontpage. they require Internet Explorer to run.

Setuo will now close' How to fix

Hi, Is there any tool to check if there is update version of a package available? I look for things alike YUM for linux? YD

Some hardware accelerators (like intel aseni or the s390 cpacf functions) have lower priorities than virtio crypto, and those drivers are faster than the same in the host via virtio. So let's lower the priority of virtio-crypto's algorithm, make it's higher than sofeware implimentations but lower than the hardware ones. Suggested-by: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger at

Hi, In this newsletter (Vol 7, 1),the article on AMMI by Onofri and Ciriofolo presented a AMMI function. One of arguments for this function AMMI (Page 17) is biplot. There is a biplot fucntion from {stats} package. I guess they are not the same. Could the authors clarify that? Thanks, Yuandan [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, The wine is new to me. I want to install internet explorer using winetools. there are always errors. It seems the winetools were tested on wine 9.0, but my wine is wine-0.9.6-1.fc4. any advice?? Thanks Yuandan

Hi, how to write out data frame in format? for examples, I wrote out a data using 'write.table(siredata, file='siredata.txt', row.names=F, quote=F)'. it produced data alike this: 2882 1 0 0 0 0 L1600481991910012 L1600011988880196 2883 0.79 0.21 0 0 21 L1622881993930001 L1600481991910012 2884 0.84 0.16 0 0 23 L1622881993930005 L1600481991910012 2885 0.9 0.1 0 0 23

Hi, there, I have made my small contribution to syslinux by translating the documents into Traditional Chinese. I translated the documents this summer, and really hope these documents would help lots of people who use Traditonal Chinese as their mother's tongue. You may get the document via: http://www.rickylin.idv.tw/syslinux/syslinux-2.05-zh_tw.big5.tar.gz What's new in these

I have a question. I can find a function about "Gaussian hypergeometric function" in sofeware Maple V. I need this function to calculate. Is there a similar function in R ? Or I have to design such a function. Thanks! Jimmy Cheng

Dear friends, The user coordiante system in the R graphics is easy to understand as it simply corresponds to the range of values on the axes of the plot. However, sometimes, we want to kown the coordinates of a region in other system, e.g., the normal coordinate system whose origin is the the upper-left cornner of the drawing area which is used to set the hot regions in the HTML image maps.

Hey, everyone, I am using proportional odds model for ordinal responses in dose-response experiments. For some samll data, SAS can successfully provide estimators of the parameters, but the built-in function polr() in R fails. Would you like to tell me how to make some change so I can use polr() to obtain the estimators? Or anyone can give me a hint about the conditions for the existance of MLE

Hi, I try to use R within perl. however, I have a bit difficulty to install RSperl.

Dear All, I am not familar with R. I want to use PCA (principal components analysis) and MDS (multidimensional scaling). Can someone tell me which R package I should use for PCA and MDS? I appreciate your help in advance. Ray

Dear All, I have written a function in c (in a file named 'a.c') as follows, void convolve(double *a, int *na, double *b, int *nb, double *ab) { int i, j, nab = *na + *nb - 1; for(i = 0; i < nab; i++) ab[i] = 0.0; for(i = 0; i < *na; i++) for(j = 0; j < *nb; j++) ab[i + j] += a[i] * b[j]; } Then, I created a shared file in the Windows, R CMD SHLIB -d -o

Hi, when I run WINWORD.EXE with wine 0.9.7. I get a lot of command line output (see below). The MS WORED seems fine. Is this normal? if not, what is the problem and how to fix it?

Dear lists, I want to construct a loop in R, but don't know how to do it. I can do it in SAS, but I prefer in R (which I am hoping I will off SAS for good soon). Could anyone help me to convert the SAS codes to equivalent R codes. Basically, the following codes were written to establish the sire gametes or phases for daughter design for one markers two alleles. Here are the SAS code: do
