I added a bibliographic reference to one of my .Rnw documents, to wit: \begin{thebibliography}{9} \bibitem{Jose} Jos{\'{e}} C. Pinheiro and Douglas M. Bates, \emph{Mixed-Effects Models in S and S-PLUS}, Springer, 2000. \end{thebibliography} just before the \end{document}. When I run Sweave on the result these lines disappear without a trace. Is this intentional? Subquestion: is

Dear R-devel, Question: How can I get Sweave to recognize that the \thebibliography section is already created and generate the vignette pdf with a single pass? Or is there a way to let R CMD build know that Sweave needs to be run twice? If (1) is not possible, any suggestions how to auto-generate a crude generic bibtex .bib file from my existing document? Background: I maintain

Dear all, I'm trying to produce two dotcharts side-by-side within a Sweave document. When I'm compiling this example: \documentclass{article} \begin{document} <<fig=T,width=8,height=4>>= par(mfrow = c(1, 2), cex = 0.7) for(i in 1:2) dotchart(1:10) @ <<fig=T,width=8,height=4>>= par(mfrow = c(1, 2), cex = 0.7) for(i in 1:2) hist(1:10) @

Dear R-help, After making a typo (reminiscent of FORTRAN 77, I guess) I found the following: > identical(all.equal(2^(-10:10), 2**(-10:10)), TRUE) [1] TRUE I have tried to find the documentation about the ** operator but I was unsuccesful this way: > sessionInfo() Version 2.3.1 (2006-06-01) powerpc-apple-darwin8.6.0 attached base packages: [1] "methods" "stats"

Hello, Does anyone know which method from Newcombe (1998)* is implemented in prop.test for comparing two proportions? I would guess it is the method based on the Wilson score (for single proportion), with and without continuity correction for prop.test(..., correct=FALSE) and prop.test(..., correct=TRUE). These methods would correspond to no. 10 and 11 tested in Newcombe, respectively. Can

Dear list, I would like to make a Sweave document that, for a given package, automatically inserts the graphical outputs obtained when runing the example code of high level plot functions. That is, for the "graphics" base package, something like this: http://pbil.univ-lyon1.fr/R/fichestd/tdr79.pdf For this, I need the list of high level plot functions of a given package. I have

Dear all, I'm confused by the time serie parameters in data(lh) : sueoka:~ lobry$ R --vanilla --quiet > tsp(lh) [1] 1 48 1 because documentation says: QUOTE A regular time series giving the luteinizing hormone in blood samples at 10 mins intervals from a human female, 48 samples.

Dear Josh, Thanks for your help! Does your answer mean, that you agree the two methods should do the same, and what I was guessing, despite the small differences? What I prefer about ci.pd is, that the help clearly says which method is implemented, which is not the case for prop.test. But I do not know who has programmed the function.

Dear list, I'm trying to understand the graphical parameters by a systematic exploration of the par() function (if you are interested by the result it's here http://pbil.univ-lyon1.fr/R/fichestd/tdr75.pdf, the comments are all in french but it's pure R code under Sweave). I have a problem with par(tmag) illustrated by the following code:

Dear R-help, I would like to include the documentation of an R function in an *.rnw document processed by Sweave. Because I'm sharing my *.rnw files with colleagues under Linux and Windows (I'm on Mac OS X), I would like a pure R solution. The naive approach doesn't work, because Sweaving this *.rnw file: -------- tmp.rnw -------- \documentclass{article} \begin{document}

Dear all, the dataset documented under ?crimtab was also used in: @article{TreloarAE1934, title = {The adequacy of "{S}tudent's" criterion of deviations in small sample means}, author = {Treloar, A.E. and Wilder, M.A.}, journal = {The Annals of Mathematical Statistics}, volume = {5}, pages = {324-341}, year = {1934} } The following is

Dear R-devel, googling for the single letter R yields R-home page as the firt hit, which is extremly nice. By clicking on the figure you get the code of the "Winner of the R Homepage graphics competition 2004." By copy/pasting in your R console it doesn't work because it is impossible to install the mva package. This is my point. As documented in ONEWS the reason is simple:

I have often the same problem, I'm using a construct like : <<eval=F>>= x <- rnorm(100) @ I have

Dear All, I'am looking for examples showing that correlation does not imply causality, the targeted audience consists of undergraduate students (their first year at the university but in the BioMathStat track). All practicals are under R. I was able to extract this from R datasets: ### begin data(sunspots) data(lynx) spots <- window(sunspots, freq = 1, start = 1880, end = 1900) lnx <-

Dear Rdev, in R 2.9.0 the doc of function stars() does not state that it returns invisibly the location of atomic graphs. This is a valuable information as it may help to set a value for the key.loc parameter of this function. My whish is just that the "value" section in stars.Rd should be documented. Best, Pr. Jean R. Lobry BTW, the URL:,

Dear list, since I have upgraded openOffice to version 3.2 I have some trouble to open very simple ODT files generated by odfweave: the file is apparently corrupted (but recovery is fine). I have observed this under windows and mac OS 10.4.11 with R 2.10.0, odfWeave_0.7.11, XML_2.6-0, lattice_0.17-26. However, I found nothing similar by RSiteSearching so that I'm suspecting a localization
