Hi, I installed the package Hmisc with the command install.packages("Hmisc") without errors. When I try to load the library with command library(Hmisc) I get the error > library(Hmisc) Error in library(Hmisc) : there is no package called 'Hmisc' > version _ platform i386-pc-linux-gnu arch i386 os linux-gnu system i386,

Dear all, I tried to use "step" function to do model selection, but I got an error massage. What I don't understand is that data as data.frame worked well for my other programs, how come I cannot make it run this time. Could you please tell me how I can fix it? ***************************************************************************************************

Hello, I was wondering if I can plot two curves I get from "density(data)" into one plot. I want to compare both. With the following commad, I just get one curve plotted: plot( density(mydata) ) Sorry for this stupid question but I could not find a solution until now... Antje

Dear all, I want to design a histogram and I need to have the frequency at certain points. For example I have the following 2 columns: *X Y* 0.1 25 0.4 22 0.45 11 0.55 21 I want the chart to have 4 columns. First column is from 0.0-0.1 (on X) and frequency is 25. Next colum is wider and form 0.1-0.4 with 22 frequency. Next column is narrow with 11 frequency and the last column is

Hi ! I am trying to get at the covariance of the predictions of a linear model. Suppose the we have: > x<-runif(1000) > y<-2 + 25x*x +rnorm(1000) > lm1 <-lm(y~x, data = data.frame(y = y, x=x)) > x.pred <-runif(10) > y.hat <- predict(lm1, newdata = data.frame(x=x.pred)) I was wondering how to get an estimate of the covariance of y.hat which would be a 10 x 10

I was reading about the project drawer feature in Textmate, which is Mac only. Is there a similar feature in a Windows based text editor that works with R. This feature sounds really useful. Thanks, Graham [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, Suppose I have a multivariate response Y (n x k) obtained at a set of predictors X (n x p). I would like to perform a linear regression taking into consideration the covariance structure of Y within each unit - this would be represented by a specified matrix V (k x k), assumed to be the same across units. How do I use "lm" to do this? One approach that I was thinking of

Hi, Sorry for the question, I know it should be basic knowledge but I'm struggling for two hours now. How do I select only the first entry of each list member and ignore the rest? So for > $"121_at" > -113691170 > $"1255_g_at" > 42231151 > $"1316_at" > 35472685 35472588 > $"1320_at" > -88003869

HI ! I?ve installed the latest R version (2.3.1) and I?ve had problems to save my graphics as JPEG, PNG and the others available formats. R saves the file with no extension. Then, I have to open this file using an image visualizer and save it as PNG, for instance. Previous R versions work without problems. Has everyone had a similar problem? Is it a bug of R 2.3.1? Thanks in advance. Ilka

Hello All, I have 8 variables named a b c d e f g h I need to create four variables from these 8 vraibles in R. the new variables are ab,cd,ef,gh. Can anyone pleas help me thanks, Pratap --------------------------------- [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi R users I have a dataset which represents points that are market by patients as the source of pain. Basically the patients indicates by a cross on a chest pictures where he/she thinks is the source of pain. The data was then digitalized by divinding the chest into small squares and each square was give value 1 if it was the center 2 if it was touched by the markings and 3 if it was not

hie when i use plot.survfit to plot more than one graph why I only see the last graph how do i see the other graphs.for example n=20 n1=n/2 n2=n/4 a11=4;a12=4 ;a21=4 ;a22=4 t1<-array(1,c(n1)) t2<-array(2,c(n1)) treatgrp=matrix(c(t1,t2))

I would like to buy a basic statistics book (experimental design, sampling, ANOVA, regression, etc.) with examples in R. Or download it in PDF or html format. I went to the CRAN contributed documentation, but there were only R textbooks, that is, textbooks where R is the focus, not the statistics. And I would like to find the opposite. Other text I am trying to find is multivariate data

Hi everyone, I'm using the function 'HWE.exact' of 'genetics' package to compute p-values of the HWE test. My data set consists of ~600 subjects (cases and controls) typed at ~ 10K SNP markers; the test is applied separately to cases and controls. The genotypes are stored in a list of 'genotype' objects, all.geno, and p-values are calculated inside the loop over all

Hi I'm fitting poisson and negative binomial distributions to event data. I'm interested in the expected number of events occuring in a time period. For the poisson this is determined by the parameter lambda only. For the neg. binomial, is the expected number of events determined by the parameter "mu" only or does parameter "size" influence the first moment as

Hello, I am interested in plotting my regression analysis results(regression coefficients and standard errors obtained through OLS and Tobit models) in the form of graphs.What is the best way to accomplish this? Thanks. Murali Kuchibhotla [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I''m looking for a R function which can maximise this logliklihood function, under the constraits a>0 e b>0 f<-function(param){ a<-param[1] b <-param[2] log(prod)-(a*s2)-(b*s)-n*log(1-((0.5*b/sqrt(a))*(exp((b^2)/(4*a)))*((sqrt(pi ))*(1-pnorm(-b/(2*sqrt(a)), mean=0, sd=1)))))} I''ve tried maxlik constrOptim e donlp2 but without success. Thanks so

Hi All, Please pardon me if I am missing something obvious here. How do I get the Kaplan-Meier estimate function that is created by survfit and plotted by the code. fit <- survfit(Surv(time, status) , data=aml) plot(fit) That is, I need a function that will give me the survival estimate at a given time: \hat{S}(t).

Hi, I am running a simple linear model with (say) 5 independent variables. Is there a simple way of getting the variance-covariance matrix of the coeffcient estimates? None of the values of the lm() seem to provide this. Thanks in advance, Ritwik Sinha rsinha@darwin.cwru.edu Grad Student Case Western Reserve University [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello R people! How can one use a for loop (or something similar) in R? As I type in each line, I get syntax errors... I'm just confused how much to type in at each ">" prompt.
