Hi I just installed the pastecs package and I am wondering: is there an english (or german) translation of the file pastecs.pdf? If not, is there an explanation somewhere of the object of type 'turnpoints' as a result of turnpoints(), especially the "info" field?

Hi I have a large dataset which follows a multimodal distribution. And I would like to identify the maxima. As the data is obtained from a stochastic simulation, not all maxima in the data are "real maxima of the dirstribution" but rather small random fluctuations. Unfortunately, it is not possible for me to run more simulations to smooth the obtained distribution. What I am doing

Hi I hope I can use this R mailing list for this but it seems appropriate. I started writing a small package which enables me to create plantuml graphs from within R. It is working and available on GitHub at https://github.com/rkrug/plantuml It is at the moment very rudimentary and can either display the generated graph in an R graphic device or save them in a file, but it works nicely (and it

Hi I have problems installing R 2.1.1. from rpm (R-base-2.2.0-1.i586.rpm) on SuSE 10.

Hi I have (8 measures * 96 groups) = 768 datasets for which I did linear regressions using lm(). Now I want to compare the slopes for each of the 8 measures in each of the 96 groups. As I understand , I can not use > anova(lm1, ..., lm8) as the lm1 ... lm8 are based on different datasets. I also read in previous discussions in this list, that I can see if the slope +- stddev(slope)

Hi I heard so much about Emacs and ESS that I decided to try it out - but I am stuck at the beginning. Is there anywhere a beginners manual for Emacs & ESS to be used with R? even M-x S tells me it can't start S-Plus - obviously - but I want it to start R... Any help welcome (otherwise I will be stuck with Eclipse and R) Rainer -- Rainer M. Krug, Dipl. Phys. (Germany), MSc

Hi When I run a program I've written with Delphi7, I get several of the following messages: fixme:imm:ImmReleaseContext (0x10020, 0x403b9e80): stub . . .

Hi I generate a new dataframe by doing: npl.agg <- aggregate(npl$DensPlants, list(year=npl$year, sim=npl$sim), mean, na.rm=TRUE ) Now I want to plot it by using coplot(npl.agg$x ~ npl.agg$year | npl.agg$sim, type="l") but, as npl.agg$year is seen as a factor, the order of the points on the x-axis (time axis) does not follow the numerical sorting 1...100, but rather the text

Hi I am using the latex() command from the Hmisc package to export table to latex. For formating of the values, I use the format() function. But I don't manage to get the format of the values right: I don't want scientific notation, but if I say scientific=FALSE, I get many digits after the decimal point which I can not control with digits=... and nsmall=... in the format command.

This code below produces empty XXX.png files - if I use plot(), it works and if I enter the commands png(filename=fn) bubble(positions, do.sqrt=FALSE, main=q) dev.off() manually, it works as well. I am lost - any help appreciated. The weird thing is that it worked before I made some changes... (I don't have a copy of the working version...). R version: platform i686-pc-linux-gnu arch
