I'm unable to open an SPSS file over my network. If I copy it to my local C:/ drive I can read it. I saved the command (in a "crib sheet" text file) in order to avoid all the typing, so I'm pretty sure I've done it before. I verified that the file I'm trying to read is OK. This is what happens: > SurveyData <-

Dear List I just downloaded and installed R 2.12.0 and then installed R Commander . First it got RCmdr and Car, and then suggested for other packages for utilizing the full functionality- I clicked yes! I got 140 packages installed!!! Cran Mirror was UCLA... Here is the list. Is this intentional- I can see some packages like snow and multicore which are desirable but quite optional.(see list

Something might have slipped by me, but I got into the following situation installing Rcmdr: < install.packages("Rcmdr",depend=TRUE) > Oodles of Output, until: * Installing *source* package 'multcomp' ... ** R ** data ** inst ** preparing package for lazy loading Error in dyn.load(x, as.logical(local), as.logical(now)) : unable to load shared library

I just downloaded the windows version R version 2.4.0 alpha (2006-09-05 r39134) 1. When I downloaded the packages, the following two were not found. > utils:::menuInstallPkgs() --- Please select a CRAN mirror for use in this session --- dependency ''fCalendar'' is not available dependency ''SparseM'' is not available I am not sure which other packages

After trying to find if there was a color picker in the FAQs and the help, I thought I would send a post here. I was overwhelmed with all the wonderful color choices R has predefined (discovered after typing in colors()) but can't figure out what they all (by name) look like. Is there a color picker or some other method to display all those colors next to the name? I think I can put together

Yes, oversight, I think ;-) Added to the devel-version of zoo. I'll try to get it out to CRAN in the next days. Z > Thanks > > Tobias > > > > library(zoo) > > x.Date

I've been trying to figure out why the following is happening.... I've got some data I'll load in from a file... rm(list=ls(all=TRUE)) trees <- read.table( "c:/cruisepak/data.txt", header=T) trees$ct <- 1 And when I create some temp variable, then split the data to perform further processing, the additional column doesn't maintain the data correctly.... mtrees

R gurus: I'm thinking about using R for website traffic analysis but didn't find anything in my web searches specific to R. If I have the webpages (simple example would contain something like three (3) static pages with a couple of links each) and parse the apache access log file (httpd-access.log), then I can populate the graph representing the website and perform whatever analysis I

I'm adding a couple of vignettes to an existing package. When I make a change to the sweave file, and run the check command, c:\conifers\trunk>R CMD check rconifers I get the following message(s) in the 00check.log file: * checking for unstated dependencies in vignettes ... OK * checking package vignettes in 'inst/doc' ... WARNING Package vignette(s) without corresponding PDF:

I've got a newbie question and I got a little lost in the "table helps". I've got a data.frame I would like to summarize as a (and pardon for the lack of correct vernacular) data collection matrix. My data looks like, stand siteindex age acres pct.acres 1 232 116 45 8477.3105 0.56159458 2 234 121 25 11120.1530 0.73667441 3 235 132 25

I've been working on a LaTeX document that contains Sweave code and cannot get MikTeX to find the Sweave.sty file. I've added the c:\rw1081\share\texmf path in the MikTeX roots (I've ven added the path in the environment variables ) but to no avail. Is there a trick to getting Sweave installed correctly when using MikTeX on Windows XP? Do I need to move/copy the Sweave.sty file to the

I've been trying to plot the predicted values, as a line, over the data for a simple nonlinear fit with the following commands: plot( hg ~ ht ) ... define some function hg ~ ht + junk ... ... blah, blah, obtain parameter estimates and predicted values, blah... ... then... lines( sort( $predicted ) ~ sort( ht ) ) which results in a line that isn't smooth (which I knew would happen).

There was mention of this [r-sig-fedora at r-project.org] mailing list on one of the other R lists overnight. I thought the list needed a bit of posting, as I could not recall seeing content recently on it. I cross post to the Red Hat hosted list as well, it raises issues relevant there as well I have been packaging in support of many of the financial packages at CRAN and in R-Forge [

I'm in the middle of a long overdue package update, and after seeing the CRAN Task Views I thought there would be an entry, in the DESCRIPTIONS file, for that entry that appears on the package webpage. For example, http://cran.case.edu/web/packages/vegan/index.html Since it's been some time since I've updated the package, I did a little reading (R-exts.pdf) and web searching and

I've wondered why the digest version of the r-devel emails have the messages as attachments and the r-help-request have all the messages in one email (which I like MUCH better).

I couldn't find this is in the FAQs or in the R archives and I've poked around the lattice package manual, but... I've been trying to figure out how to generate graphics files with a transparent background with the lattice package. The code to generate the levelplot is fine and I can produce a simple png file with a transparent background just fine, but I'm not sure how to

I've been trying to figure out how to prevent a column that is the result of an aggregate function call so that I can use it in further calculations. For example, I would like to aggregate the expf for the data.frame by sp (character) and dbh (double d=rounded to integer) using the command: > st2 <- aggregate( ntrs$expf, by=list(sp=ntrs$sp,dbh=ntrs$dbh), sum ) > st2$expf <- st2$x

I've been trying to figure out how to accomplish the following... I've got a list (returned from a function) and I would like to "cbind()" the lists together to create a "cross tab" report or simply bind them together somehow the function returns a list that looks like the following: > all$BM $species [1] "BM" $vbar.nobs [1] 3 $vbar.sum [1] 54.05435
