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 have the following loop and would like to vectorize it. Any ideas if it is possible? Thanks, Rainer Tha Loop: for (i in 2:Result$NoSims) { ppp <- runifpoint(Result$NoPlants) K <- Kest(ppp) Result$LSim[i,] <- sqrt(K$iso / pi) - K$r CM <- (Result$LSim[i,] * Result$LSim[i,]) / abs(K$r[2] - K$r[1]) Result$SigCM[i] <- sum(CM, na.rm=TRUE) print(i) flush.console() }

Hi I have a loop which is doing time consuming calculations and I would like to be able to have some feedback on where it is in it's calculations. I tried to simply show the counter variable in the loop, but id doesn't work as all display seems to be delayed until the loop is completed. Is there any way of displaying the progress of a loop? Rainer The loop: for (i in

Hi I use the following code and it stores the results of density() in the list dr: dens <- function(run) { density( positions$X[positions$run==run], bw=3, cut=-2 ) } dr <- lapply(1:5, dens) but the results are stored in dr[[i]] and not dr[i], i.e. plot(dr[[1]]) works, but plot([1]) doesn't. Is there any way that I can store them in dr[i]? Thanks a lot, Rainer -- Rainer M. Krug,

Hi is it possible to specify the shape of the point to be used in ggplot (as with pch in plot)? I couldn't find anything in the help. Thanks Rainer -- Rainer M. Krug, Dipl. Phys.

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 I have the following code which I would like to simplify. Id does linear regressions and returns the r-squares, and the coefficients. It runs slow, as it is doing the regressions for each - is it possible to get the values in a dataframe which looks as follow: expert | xx | seeds | r.squared | slope | intercept Thanks in advance, Rainer library(reshape) rsqs <- as.data.frame(

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 the function density() does normally integrate to one - I've checked it and it works and I also read the previous threads. But I realised that it does not integrate to one if I use from, to or cut. My scenario: I simulated densities of a plants originating from an sseed source at distance zero. Therefore the density of the plants will be highest close to zero. Is there anything I can do

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 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.

Have just upgraded from 3.0.14a to 3.0.25b. On starting winbindd it puts the following in /var/log/messages: initialize_winbindd_cache: clearing cache and re-creating with version number 1 All the winbind UID/GID mappings are lost and it starts again from scratch. Hence all file ownership / ACLs on this samba server become invalid. Anyone else seen this? Why does it see fit to destroy this

Hi I know this is a basic question and I know I have done it before but I can't find the answer any more. I have a data set, say: F1, F2, Value F1 and F2 are Factors. I would like to plot plot(TheCombinationOf(F1, F2), Value) I remember there was a function for TheCombinationOf() but I don't remember the name. I could create a new factor based on F1 and F2, but I would prefer the

Hey, I just finished a round of testing my app with mongrel-1.0rc1 (pretty good, four segfaults and a gc error in maybe ten thousands requests) and was moving on to mongrel_service to see if it could cope with said segfaults and gc errors. Sadly, the service will not start. I installed using: mongrel_rails service::install -N nplrails -e development -p 3000 claims to be happy. When I try to
