similar to: long captions -- new issue

I am using R for Unix and want to make some LaTeX tables. I have already played around in R for Windows and have succeeded in making tables that I want using the following code: latex(Estimates, file='out.tex', rowlabel='',digits=3) However, when I use this code in Unix, I can never find the file "out.tex". I assumed that R would send the file to whatever directory I

Perhaps someone will have a solution to my more general problem, but here is the specific one: I used the round() function to round some estimates to 3 decimal places. I then sent put the rounded estimates in a matrix and used latex() to make a LaTeX table from them. However, in my table, there are estimtes which only have 2 decimal places. I assume that the third decimal place in these numbers

Thanks to the help of many on this list, I am now an R user and have been able to write some functioning code to do matching estimation. I have two for loops (i in 1:3, and j in 0:2). Within the loops, I had been creating matrices of relevant estimation coefficents in order to make lots of LaTeX tables. Well, now I want to be able to combine the results of many different estimations from within

I am trying to feed a list to latex to use with SWeave, and the list comes from contents(). Since it is a list, a caption and label are generated by latex.list - these are not overridden by setting the parameters (such as caption='myCaption', label='myLabel'). I must clearly be missing something - is there no way to set a caption or label with the latex() function when

Does anyone out there use dcolumn=TRUE in the latex() function in the Hmisc library? I would like to line up the data in a latex table I'm making using latex(), but I'm having some issues with this feature. Since there is no description of it in the help, I thought that it might be incomplete or something like that. On a related note, if anyone knows how to get the end result I want

I have a dataset with 4 years of students, and normally I want to estimate things using each individual year, so I have a for loop as follows for (i in 1:4){} However, the only way I know how to calculate estimates using all four years of data is to put the estimations outside of the loop. Is there anyway to make a for loop that uses all four years at once, then uses each individual year?

Hi Folks, I'm surprised, but I didn't find this question addressed anywhere. I'd like to generate a LaTeX caption with R code. I've tried the code below, but I get the following TeX error: ! Argument of \@caption has an extra }. <inserted text> \par l.21 } Any thoughts? Perhaps I'll have to write the "\caption{}" text with R? thanks!

Forgive my ignorance, but how I can take a look at the code for the latex function in the Hmisc library? I tried just typing "latex" but all I got was this: > latex function (object, title = first.word(deparse(substitute(object))), ...) { if (!length(oldClass(object))) oldClass(object) <- data.class(object) UseMethod("latex") } What should I do?

Dear List, I would like to add captions to a set of graphics. The graphs are each composed of two scatter plots in an upper and lower pane. I'd like to add a caption below the lower pane. The troubel I'm hitting is that in order to fit the caption using mtext, I must increase the margins for both panes-- these shrinks my plots considerably and leaves a big blank area. The second trouble

Hello All, Hope people won't mind my posting a LaTeX question here. I know a lot of people who use R are also using LaTeX. I'm in a bit of a rush to complete a document and am having trouble with one aspect of the formatting. I'm creating a list of tables using: \listoftables I also have some table captions that contain the number of patients in an anlysis like: \caption{Results

All, I've been using "sub" (subtitle) instead of "main" such that captions are below figures produced by xyplot. This works fine and captions are on a single line. However, when I try this for bar plots with error bars (altering the error.bars function form Crawley's The R Book, see below), the captions are split on more than 1 line. Is there a way to get the

Hi, I would like to have four plots plotted in the one figure and under each plot the caption (a) ... (d). Using mtext I can get so far: > plot(1:10, exp(1:10), log = "y", xlab = "xlab") > mtext("(a)",side=1,line=4.5) > plot(1:10, exp(1:10), log = "y", xlab = "xlab") > mtext("(b)",side=1,line=4.5) > plot(1:10,

Dear all, When using latex.table from the quantreg package, I don't seem to be able to set table.env=FALSE: when I don't specify caption (as I think I should, when understanding the R help rightly(?)), I get an error message, and when I do so, of course I get one, as well. The funny thing is, that a table is indeed produced in the first case, so I get a nice tabular, but as I'm using

Dear all, I want to start my post by expressing my sincere gratitude for all the help this group has given me in Sweave/Latex/R. The tools are excellent and so is the community! On to the question. My Sweave code is intended to make lots of plots and create a *.pdf document. Sweave is perfect for this. The only problem is that I find myself using the same R code, within my Sweave input file

if I want to put fig1plot to the left, figYPplot to the right figYAaplot on the bottom. How to modify the following cod to do these? \begin{figure}[H] \centering \begin{minipage}[t]{0.5\textwidth} \centering <<label=fig1plot,fig=TRUE,echo=FALSE>>= <<fig1plot>> @ %\caption{Caption 1} \end{minipage} \begin{minipage}[t]{0.5\textwidth} \centering

Hi, I'm using Sweave with xtable to generate Latex tables. My problem is that some of the tables are too wide, and I would like to use the tiny font for these tables, but not for the others nor for the text. I can't work out how to accomplish that. The Latex code below does what I want it to, but I have to insert the "\tiny{" and the closing "}" by hand. It

Dear R users: When I create a table without Major Column headings, my *regular* column headings appear correct in the typeset latex file. The major row heading and row groups are as they should. w <- latex(mytab,title="",file="tab/my.tex",ctable=TRUE,caption="Descriptive statistics by

Hi Folks, I've got a question regarding the 'quantreg' package maintained by Roger Koenker: I tried to produce LaTeX tables using the longtable and dcolumn options as decribed in the manual, but the function latex() doesn't seem to react on _any_ other options than 'digits' and 'transpose'. To reproduce these results the following minimal example may be used:
