similar to: code for latex function in Hmisc

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

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 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?

Dear R-helpers, When I try > anova(txtE2.lme, txtE2.lme1) Model df AIC BIC logLik Test L.Ratio p-value txtE2.lme 1 10 8590 8638 -4285 txtE2.lme1 2 7 8591 8624 -4288 1 vs 2 6.79 0.0789 > latex(anova(txtE2.lme, txtE2.lme1)) Error: object "n.group" not found I don't even see n.group as one of the arguments of latex() I checked to see >

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

I'm looking for an R method to produce latex versions of tables for table/array objects of 3 or more dimensions, which, of necessity is flattened to a 2D display, for example with ftable(), or vcd::structable, as shown below. I'd be happy to settle for a flexible solution for the 3D case. > UCB <- aperm(UCBAdmissions, c(2, 1, 3)) > ftable(UCB) Dept A B

I am unclear on whether to run R CMD check pgkname as user or as root on Linux. When running as user, after all the latex, html, and man files are created, I get the following error message: Rdconv(): Couldn't open '': Permission denied Has anyone dealt with that message? When I run R CMD check a second time, all latex, html, etc. are recreated which takes quite a while. Is there

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

Does anyone else find that using the Var.calc option (for heteroscedasticity consistent std. errors) in Match() (from the Matching library) slows down computation of the matching estimator by a lot? I don't really understand why when I use this option it slows down so much, but for me it does significantly. I want to use the heteroscedasticity consistent std. errors in my project, but as long

I have found out that the way to have a break apart a long caption in the way that one desires is to have a short caption for use in the list of tables that is not broken with \\ I can manually adjust the LaTeX output from the Hmisc function latex() to get the tables how I want them. However, I would like to automate the creation of these tables. Inside the latex() function, I tried this:

Hi, just making some experiments with design library i get an error if i want plot(fit) - show below from onlineHelp !? ..perhaps is here another mask problem?, but label from xtable which was my first problem is now off ! Thanks for advance & regards, Christian $ n <- 1000 # define sample size $ set.seed(17) # so can reproduce the results $ age <- rnorm(n, 50, 10)

Dear R-helpers, Can someone explain to me why the function interaction() from the Hmisc library results in numeric? test1 <- c("A","B","C") test2 <- c("D","E","F") is.numeric(interaction(test1,test2)) [1] TRUE I had problems with this side effect in a different function. thanks, Remko Duursma

To anyone who uses the Match() function in the Matching library... How do you go about deciding how many matches you will use? With my data, my standard errors generally get smaller if I use more matches. Speaking of standard errors, when correcting for heteroscedasticity, how many matches do you use (this is the Var.cal option). It seems to me that it might make sense to use the same number

I am ashamed to be asking this question, but I couldn't find the solution anywhere. Searching for "if" and "R" is not very productive... I cannot get a simple if statement to work. I have data on college students. I want to make a string variable that has the names of the years. That is, when the year variable i is equal to 1, I want to have a variable called years

Hi I have the result of a linear model "lm98" and I want to plot it to analyse the regression but I'm getting the folowing error message > lm98<-lm(log(U+1)~Bq+Gi+Lv+Tb+Bq:Gi+Bq:Lv+Bq:Tb+Gi:Lv+Gi:Tb+Lv:Bq) > plot(lm98) Error in plot.window(xlim, ylim, log, asp, ...) : need finite ylim values In addition: Warning message: NaNs produced in: sqrt(1 - hii) The

Hi,When I read the source of str,i find these code ----- ## Show further classes // Assume that they do NOT have an own Method -- ## not quite perfect ! (.Class = 'remaining classes', starting with current) cl <- oldClass(object); cl <- cl[cl != "data.frame"] #- not THIS class ----- so I use ?oldClass to try to learn more about oldClass.But after I have reading

Hi, The unary forms of is() and extends() report that data.frame extends list, oldClass, and vector: > is(data.frame()) [1] "data.frame" "list" "oldClass" "vector" > extends("data.frame") [1] "data.frame" "list" "oldClass" "vector" However, the binary form of is()

The is() function begins with the following code: cl <- class(object) if (length(cl) > 1) { if (is.na(match(cl[[1]], names(getClass("oldClass")@subclasses)))) return(class2 %in% cl) As one can see, it uses S3 inheritance if the first element of the class attribute is an "oldClass". In R prior to 2.7, is() would check S4 inheritance if any

Hi, To be able to match cases with a benchmark I need to have a data.frame with a character id variable. however, I am surprised why this seems to be so hard. In fact I was unable to succeed. Here is what I tried: >test1 <-expand.grid(ID = 1:2, sex = c("male","female")) >is(test1[,2]) [1] "factor" "oldClass" >test2 <-expand.grid(ID =

Okay in this plea for help I''m going to repeat some of what i posted before but with a larger amount of background info in the hope that i can get a decent grip on ferret before it wriggles away.. Firstly, what does installing the acts_as_ferret plugin actually do? I install it and add it to my model and then the index is automatically generated and a few methods are added to it and
