Dear all, suppose I have a vector with elements as: Vec <- c(2,3,4,5,6) Now I want to have all possible combination of length 3 using those elements and without any repetition. Like, I want to have 1 possibility like 2-3-4 but not 3-2-4. Can somebody guide me how to achieve that in R? Thanks for your help.

I was working with the rmetrics portfolioBacktesting function and dug into the code to try to find why my formula with 113 items, i.e. A1 thru A113, was being truncated and I only get 85 items, not 113. Is it due to a string length limitation in R or is it a bug in the strsplit or gsub functions, or in my string? I'd very much appreciate any suggestions ============Input script:

We have recently digitized a set of points from some scanned engineering drawings (in the form of PDFs). The digitization resulted in x,y page coordinates for each point. The scans were not aligned perfectly so there is a small rotation, and furthermore each projection (e.g. the yz-plane) on the drawing has a different offset from the page origin to the projection origin. From the dimensions

Hello, This is not a problem with R, the calculated results are mathematically correct. This a matrix stability problem. Because of measuring errors, my matrix solution is a bit off. Here is what my equations look like: A11 x11+A12 x12 +A13 x13 = b1 A21 x21+A22 x21 +A23 x23 = b2 A31 x31+A32 x31 +A33 x33 = b3 A is a reading, X is a measured weight, and b is total. The 3 experiments give

Dear people from the R help list, I have a question that I can't get my head around to start answering, that is why I am writing to the list. I have data in a format like this (tabs might look weird): John A1 1 0 1 John A2 1 1 1 John A3 1 0 0 Mary A1 1 0 1 Mary A2 0 0 1 Mary A3 1 1 0 Peter A1 1

Is there an element-by-element multiplication in R, like the .* operator in Matlab? eg: A (2x3) B (2x3) C=A.*B C (2x3) C = [[a11*b11 a12*b12 a13*b13]; [a21*b21 a22*b22 a23*b23]] I can't find one... Thanks -Mike Gates

Dear Colleagues, I have a dataframe with variables: [1] "ID" "category" "a11" "a12" "a13" "a21" [7] "a22" "a23" "a31" "a32" "b11" "b12" [13] "b13" "b21"

Good morning! Please, could you help me with the problem? I have a matrix *144x73.* An example of a matrix: [,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [,5] [1,] 277.4 276.24 275.62 276.55 278.05 [2,] 277.4 276.24 275.55 276.42 277.72 [3,] 277.4 276.24 275.50 276.22 277.39 [4,] 277.4 276.24 275.42 276.02 277.02 [5,] 277.4 276.22 275.37 275.82 276.64 And I want to *compare*its cells

Hi All I am having 2 very long character strings (550chars) and I want to put them as expressions together with c(). The problem is that I also get these double-quotes, as seen below in 'fct'. How can I remove these double-quotes? I tried as.name() but it did not work (because of size?). These are creating trouble with subsequent programs, which I tested with strings that for some

Dear R users, I have a data frame with one column (4000 rows) containing name codes (factor with 63 levels). I would like to associate each name with a particular Type (coded as 1,2,3,4,H or H1) in a second column. Is it possible to do a lookup table of associations (i.e. A23 is of type 1, A13 is of type 3 ...) so as to fill up automatically the $Type column. df() $Source $Type A23 A24 A9 A32

Dear R buddies, This weekend I became interested in solving Google Code Jam problems using R. I guess R may work very well in this kind of contests but the input of file has been a problem for me. Take this case for example (http://code.google.com/codejam/contest/dashboard?c=agdjb2RlamFtchALEghjb250ZXN0cxjRzBQM), the files are usually of the form: A(number of lines for group 1) a11 a12 a13 a21

When I saw the above I tried to create a matrix from a list but could not get it to work: my.lm <- lm( rnorm(10) ~ I(1:10) ) my.list <- list(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, my.lm, my.lm, my.lm)

I am fitting models to the responses to a questionnaire that has seven yes/no questions (Item). For each combination of Subject and Item, the variable Response is coded as 0 or 1. I want to include random effects for both Subject and Item. While I understand that the datasets are fairly small, and there are a lot of invariant subjects, I do not understand something that is happening

Dear list, I've generated a list of 3D coordinates representing ellipsoids in arbitrary orientations. I'm now trying to obtain a 2D projection of the scene, that is to draw the silhouette of each object on a plane (x,y). The only way I could think of is to compute the convex hull of the (x,y) coordinates of each object and use this as the outline of the object. This is clearly

Hello Everyone, My name is Thomas and I have been using R for one week. I recently found your site and have been able to search the archives of posts. This has given me some great information that has allowed me to craft an initial design to an inquiry I would like to make into the breakdown of McNemar's test. I have read an intro to R manual and the posting guides and hope I am not violating

r-devel list, I have recently written an R package that solves a linear least squares problem, and computes the multivariate normal density function. The bulk of the code is written in C, with interfacing code to the BLAS and Lapack libraries. The motivation here is speed. I ran into a problem computing the determinant of a symmetric matrix in packed storage. Apparently, there are no explicit

Dear R-Devel subscriber, I encountered the following problem for tex-formatted table with xtable().

hie i'm tryimg to generate two survival data using the following code (I know its ugly ) but it seems to repeat two of the variables can any one tell me whats the porblem. n=20 n1=n/2 n2=n/4 a11=1 ;a12=1.4 ;a21=16 ;a22=a12 * a21 t1<-array(1,c(n1)) t2<-array(2,c(n1)) treatgrp=matrix(c(t1,t2))

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))
