If there is a helpfile open (f.e ?glm) and it is the top window, then an exception error occurs (closing RGUI) when I hit the open file button. If the helpfile is not the top window (of the RGUI) I am able to open a new script without any error. The RGUI is not closing complete there is a blank screen left which I have to close with the X Button or Taskmanager Windows XP Home - German Version

Hi all, I recently (today) updated the Matrix package and installed the latticeExtra package, but then when I tried to load the lme4 package, I got the following error message:- > library(lme4) Loading required package: Matrix Loading required package: latticeExtra Error in importIntoEnv(impenv, impnames, ns, impvars) : object(s) '.__C__lmeRep' are not exported by

Hi all, Wouldn't it be nice (??!!) if R automatically issued a warning message when the R console buffer was about to fill so that you could save all your output into a text file? (I know about sink(), but I think it would be good to have an easier mechanism to save a complete record of messages and function output). And on a similar vein, wouldn't it also be nice if R automatically

a) How can I set the recording of all windows()-history forever to "true"? I want something like windows(record = TRUE) but not just for the window that opens then, but for all windows I will open ever. b) Scrolling up in RGui (windows 2000) to see past commands is nice, but: Is it possible to type eg "wi" and the "arrow up" and see the last command that started with

It would be nice to have a date stamp on an object. In S/Splus this was always available, because objects were files. I have looked around, but I presume this information is not available. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Trevor Hastie hastie at stanford.edu Professor, Department of Statistics, Stanford University Phone:

I have contributed a "gam" library to CRAN, which implements "Generalized Additive Models". This implementation follows closely the description in the GAM chapter 7 of the "white" book "Statistical Models in S" (Chambers & Hastie (eds), 1992, Wadsworth), as well as the philosophy in "Generalized Additive Models" (Hastie & Tibshirani 1990,

Hi, there! I finally became a disciple of 'R', after having lost years of my life handling data with a popular, rather wide-spread spreadsheet-software. Now I want to plot the results of many runs of my simulation over time, so that the means +/- Standard error are on the y-axis, and time on the x-axis. I have tried 'boxplot', with timesteps as the grouping variable, but did

Christoph Lehman had problems with seperated data in two-class logistic regression. One useful little trick is to penalize the logistic regression using a quadratic penalty on the coefficients. I am sure there are functions in the R contributed libraries to do this; otherwise it is easy to achieve via IRLS using ridge regressions. Then even though the data are separated, the penalized

Dear List, I would appreciate help on the following matter: I am aware that higher dimensional contingency tables can be analysed using either log-linear models or as a poisson regression using a generalized linear model: log-linear: loglm(~Age+Site, data=xtabs(~Age+Site, data=SSites.Rev, drop.unused.levels=T)) GLM: glm.table <- as.data.frame(xtabs(~Age+Site, data=SSites.Rev,

Dear helpers, I am trying to use the mda package downloaded from the R website, but the data set has missing values so I got an error message. Should I manually handle these missing values? I was trying to read the documents to specify any option related to missing values, but I did not find it. Please forgive me if I ignore something obvious. Thanks, Zhu Wang Statistical Science Department

Greetings, I would like to fit a multiple linear regression model in which the residuals are expected to follow a multivariate normal distribution, using weighted least squares. I know that the data in question have biases that would result in correlated residuals, and I have a means for quantifying those biases as a covariance matrix. I cannot, unfortunately, correct the data for these biases.

I installed R version 2.11.0 (2010-04-22) on may macbook (snow leopard) and run R from within emacs Now when I try to get help, I get > ?lm (in the new "help" window) Error in help("lm", htmlhelp = FALSE) : unused argument(s) (htmlhelp = FALSE) Help! p.s.

This is a Request For Comment, also BCCed to 390 package maintainers of reverse dependencies of the Matrix package. Most users and package authors working with our 'Matrix' package will be using it for numerical computations, and so will be using "dMatrix" (d : double precision) matrix objects M, and indirectly, e.g., for M >= c will also use "lMatrix" (l:

Dear All, ? I have found differences between glmnet versions 1.7 and 1.7.1 which, in my opinion, are not cosmetic and do not appear in the ChangeLog. If I am not mistaken, glmnet appears to return different number of selected input variables, i.e. nonzeroCoef(fit$beta[[1]]) differes between versions. The code below is the same for 1.7.1 and 1.7, but you can see that outputs differ. I would

Hi all, Can someone tell me how to justify (right or left) the labels on the branches of a dendrogram tree? I have produced a dendrogram via agnes and plotted it with pltree. The dendrogram terminal branch labels seem to be centre-justified by default and I was hoping to change this to left justification.
