Hi All, I'd like to know what is the best way to organize R code in multiple modules= and files. The R code we are writing is too much for a single file. Besides= , there are a lot of reusable functions we'd like to factor out. But writing= a package for that is quite an over-kill and might be too inflexible. So what is the best way to organize R code into multiple files and reusable=

Hi Everyone, I am stuck with a simple problem. Suppose I have a vector x, and I want to calculate y[i]=3Dx[i+1]-x[i], it is very easy. I just need to write y<-x[2:length(x)]-x[1:length(x)-1]. Now if I know y, and want to know the vector x defined by x[i]=3Dx[i-1]+y[i-1] for all i, how can I do this without a loop? Thanks, Geoffrey PS. Sorry if you see a duplicate message. The previous

Hi, Does anyone know how to do a coord_trans() in which the y-axis is tranformed into (for example) -1000/y?

Hi, I would like to use the effect() function (actually a slightly modified version of it) on the output of the lmer() function in the lme4 package. But the effects package requires the nlme pacvkage, which is incompatible with lme4. Workaround? ______________________________________________ Professor Michael Kubovy University of Virginia Department of Psychology for mail add: for FedEx or

How does one define PDFs as yet undefined in R, such as the ex- gaussian, the sum of two RVs, one exponential, one Gaussian? The PDF would then be the convolution of an exponential PDF, dexp(), and a normal, dnorm(). Kindly cc me in your reply to r-help.

df1 <- data.frame(a = LETTERS[1:2], b = LETTERS[3:4], c = 1:2) I am looking for an idiom that swaps the elements of df$a and df$b when (e.g.) df$c == 2, resulting in df2 <- data.frame(a = LETTERS[c(1, 4)], b = LETTERS[c(3, 2)], c = 1:2) _____________________________ Professor Michael Kubovy University of Virginia Department of Psychology USPS: P.O.Box 400400 Charlottesville, VA

Dear R-helpers, It is not clear to me how you get measurement.error SD when you have a single dataset, and it is not clear to me how sensitive SIMEX is to errors in the estimates of measurement error.

Hi all, When I write a script, I'd like to create a main() function so that I only need to type main() t re-run it. However, I'd like all the variables in main() to be global so that when the function terminates, I still have access to the variables in the environment. Does anyone know how to do that?
