similar to: Splitting printed output in Sweave

Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone has any code they could share for creating thumbnail plots in Sweave. For example, I'd like a plot like the following: y <- c(40, 46, 39, 44, 23, 36, 70, 39, 30, 73, 53, 74) x <- c(6, 4, 3, 6, 1, 5, 6, 2, 1, 8, 4, 6) opar <- par(mar=c(3,3,0,0)) plot(x, y, xlab="", ylab="") abline(h=mean(y), col="red") par(opar)

Dear community, can anyone provide a snippet of code to force the lm() to fit a model with terms in the formula in an arbitrary order? I am interested in something like: lm(y ~ A * B + C, data=data) where the interaction of A and B should be in the formula before C. My goal is to simplify my presentation of models using the anova() statement. I have found that this should be possible using

Dear community, I'm trying to track down a quote, but can't recall the source or the exact structure - not very helpful, I know - something along the lines that: 80% of [applied] statistics is linear regression ... ? Does this ring a bell for anyone? Thanks, Andrew -- Andrew Robinson Department of Mathematics and Statistics Tel: +61-3-8344-9763 University of

Hi everyone, I'm involved in a discussion with a colleague. He suggested a sample design for a finite-sized process that (to all intents and purposes) involves tossing a coin and examining the unit if the coin shows Heads. I should emphasize that we're both approaching the problem from a design-based sampling theory point of view. So I have no argument about the appropriateness of the

Hi R-help citizens, I'm having trouble making version 0.99-6 of Matrix on FreeBSD 6.0.

Dear R-developers, when tapply() is invoked on factors that have empty levels, it returns NA. This behaviour is in accord with the tapply documentation, and is reasonable in many cases. However, when FUN is sum, it would also seem reasonable to return 0 instead of NA, because "the sum of an empty set is zero, by definition." I'd like to raise a discussion of the possibility of an

Hi, Can anyone explain how the standard error in arima() is calculated? Also, how can I extract it from the Arima object? I don't see it in there. > x <- rnorm(1000) > a <- arima(x, order = c(4, 0, 0)) > a Call: arima(x = x, order = c(4, 0, 0)) Coefficients: ar1 ar2 ar3 ar4 intercept -0.0451 0.0448 0.0139 -0.0688 0.0010 s.e.

Hello! I want to calculate the intra- and interrater reliability of my study. The design is very simple, 5 raters rated a diagnostic score 3 times for 19 patients. Are there methods/funtions in R? I only found packages to calculate interrater variability and intraclass correlation coefficients for matrices of n*m (n subjects, m raters) - I have n subjects, m raters and r repetitions. Can

Hi all, I need to put two different axis to one plot. On the top of the plot, I need to put one axis, with increments from left side to the right side; then at the bottom of the same plot, I need to put another axis, with increments from right side to the left side and showing a different unit. How do I do that? By the way, is there a "hold" command for plotting? If I first plot a

Dear R developers, is there a preferred format or strategy for making a patch to contribute to a package that is maintained by R-core? Berwin Turlach and I have written a very minor extension to lmeControl to allow it to pass an argument to nlminb for the maximum number of evaluations of the objective function. I've edited the nlme/R/lme.R and nlme/man/lmeControl.Rd files. I can diff the

Hi, How can I execute some scripts from within R. I have a large data file which I process (for instance with gawk, but not only) before performing some statistics. I would like to do this in R, so that I do not have to save many data files and then making analysis on them (which proved to be unefficient) Thank you Marco Grazzi

Dear R community, I'm fitting a complex mixed-effects model that requires numerous iterations and function evaluations. I note that nlminb accepts a list of control parameters, including eval.max. Is there a way to change the default eval.max value for nlminb when it is being called from lme? Thanks for any thoughts, Andrew -- Andrew Robinson Department of Mathematics and Statistics

Folks, I have got a strange behaviour when testing this: sum(x) != 1 let us set x<-c(70,134,1,5,0) and transform it in a vector of probabilities x<-x/sum(x) One expect sum(x) should be equal to 1, which is apparently the case > sum(x) [1] 1 However, when I try to test it I get: > if(sum(x) !=1) print("lost") else ("OK") [1] "lost" Which means

Hi everyone, I'm witnessing an odd modelling phenomenon that I can't explain. If anyone has seen this before, or can explain what's going on would let me know, I'd be very grateful! Especially if I'm just being dim. I'm fitting a pair of continuous variates and their interaction to some residuals from another model. The sequential anova statement changes with the term

Hi Community, I'm trying to reconcile Cook's Distances computed in glm. The following snippet of code shows that the Cook's Distances contours on the plot of Residuals v Leverage do not seem to be the same as the values produced by cooks.distance() or in the Cook's Distance against observation number plot. counts <- c(18,17,15,20,10,20,25,13,12) outcome <- gl(3,1,9)

Hi dear R community, I have up to 12 measures of a protein for each of 6 patients, taken every two or three days. The pattern of the protein looks periodic, but the height of the peaks is highly variable. I'm testing for periodicity using a Monte Carlo simulation envelope approach applied to a cumulative periodogram. Now I want to predict the location of the peaks in time. Of course, the

Hello, I'm learning to use Sweave, and I've run into a problem: sometimes, when entering long lines of input and using long variable names, Sweave will not insert linebreaks in a way that respects the width setting. This causes undesirable overflows into the margins in the latex file. For example, consider the following document (adapted from the GLM example): \documentclass{article}

Hi, Does anyone know if: with R can you take a set of numbers and aggregate them like you can in SPSS? For example, could you calculate the percentage of people who smoke based on a dataset like the following: smoke = 1 non-smoke = 2 variable 1 1 1 2 2 1 1 1 2 2 2 2 2 2 When aggregated, SPSS can tell you what percentage of persons are smokers based on the frequency of 1's and 2's.
