Greetings, I have a problem that I am sure is very straightforward, but I just can't wrap my head around it. I've read the help pages on text, plotmath, expression, substitute, but somehow I can't find the answer to this simple question. Basically consider the following example: plot( NULL, xlim = c(0,2), ylim = c(0,2) ) expressions <- expression( -infinity, infinity )

I just acquired a copy of "Statistical Models in S", I guess most commonly known as the "white book", and realized to my dismay that most of the code is not directly executable in R, and I was wondering if there was a source discussing the things that are different and what the new ways of calling things are. For instance, the first obstacle was the solder.balance data

Dear R-Help, I'm new to R and struggling with weighting data when I run regression. I've tried to use search to solve my problem but haven't found anything helpful so far. I (successfully) import data from SPSS (15) and try to run a linear regression on a subset of my data file where WEIGHT is the name of my weighting variable (numeric), e.g.: library(foreign)

Greetings, I am trying to add a boxplot to the bottom of a histogram, right between the histogram bars and the x axis. Here is the code I am using at the moment (the par line is probably not relevant for our discussion): hs <- hist(x, breaks = 20, plot = F) par(mar = c(3,3,2,1)) hist(x, breaks = 20, main = NULL, ylim = c(-2, max(hs$counts))) boxplot(x, horizontal = T, axes = T, add =

I am getting some unexpected results from some functions of igraph and it is possible that I am misinterpreting the vertex numbers. Eg., the max betweenness measure seems to be from a vertex that is not connected to a single other vertex. Below if my code snippet: require(igraph) my.graph <- graph.adjacency(adjmatrix = my.adj.matrix, mode=c("undirected")) most.between.vert <-

I have the following relatively simple problem. Say we have three factors, and we want to create a cross-tabulation against each of the other two: x <- factor(rbinom(5, 1, 1/2)) y <- factor(rbinom(5, 1, 1/2)) z <- factor(rbinom(5, 1, 1/2)) table(x,y) table(x,z) This looks like: y x 0 1 0 2 0 1 1 2 z x 0 1 0 1 1 1 2 1 I would like to get (surely this will

Hello: I have been give a spreadsheet to work with formed as one big table. What it consists of is a 10-row-by-40-column table for each of about 70 different locations. In other words, the table row names are repeated 70 times, once for each of the locations (whose names also appear in the same column, where it's talking about the totals for that location), e.g.: A B C

I have a data frame named "database" with panel data, a little piece of which looks like this: Symbol Name Trial Factor1 Factor2 External 1 548140 A 1 -3.87 -0.32 0.01 2 547400 B 1 12.11 -0.68 0.40 3 547173 C 1

Hi, Below I have a function mlogl_k, later it's called with "nlm" . __BEGIN__ vsamples<- c(14.7, 18.8, 14, 15.9, 9.7, 12.8) mlogl_k <- function( k_func, x_func, theta_func, samp) { tot_mll <- 0 for (comp in 1:k_func) { curr_mll <- (- sum(dgamma(samp, shape = x_func, scale=theta_func, log = TRUE))) tot_mll <- tot_mll + curr_mll }

I'm trying to do a linear regression between the columns of matrices. In example below I want to regress column 1 of matrix xdat with column1 of ydat and do a separate regression between the column 2s of each matrix. But the output I get seems to give correct slopes but incorrect intercepts and another set of slopes with value NA. How do I do this correctly? I'm after the slope and

Hello all, I ran into the following, to me unexpected, behavior. I have (for reasons that don't necessarily pertain to the question at hand, hence I won't go into them) the need/desire to use an empty string for the name of a vector entry. Perhaps I did not read ?"[" very carefully, but it seems to me that he following lines should return "1" at the end:

Hello, I just discovered that I cannot close the Excel application and task manager shows numerous copies of Excel.exe I tried both x$Quit() # shown in the rcom archive and x$Exit() and Excel refuses to die. Thank you very much. S. "You can't kill me, I will not die" Mojo Nixon I also have a problem with saving. It produces a pop-up dialog and does not take my second

Hi, I'm looking for some way to pick up the numbers which are contained and buried in a long character. For example, outtree.new="(((B:1204.25,E:1204.25):7581.11,F:8785.36):8353.85,C:17139.21);" num.char =

I ran into a weird, to me at least, problem, and hoping someone can shed some light into it. In a nutshell, there seems to be some problem when one calls plot with a formula, from within another function, using ... to pass arguments, and one of those arguments being xlim (and only xlim shows this problem). Here is an example: > plotw <- function(obj,...) { + plot(k~j,

Hello list, the following approach did not work: clustersA <- pam(distances, nkA, diss=TRUE); gc(); filenameclu = paste("filenameclu", ".txt"); write.table(clustersA , file=filenameclu,sep=","); although it worked with clustersA <- hclust(distances, method="ward"); and a consecutive kclassA <- cutree(clustersA, k=nkA); filename =

Hello I've stumbled upon a problem for inversion of a matrix with large values, and I haven't found a solution yet... I wondered if someone could give a hand. (It is about automatic optimisation of a calibration process, which involves the inverse of the information matrix) code: ********************* > macht=0.8698965 > coeff=1.106836*10^(-8) >

Hi all, I'm trying to write a plugin for R Commander, following the model of the TeachingDemos plugin. I am struggling trying to even add items by editing the menus.txt file. I would welcome any help from anyone who has messed with it. Essentially the problem I am having is: I cannot create a submenu to a newly created menu. Here is what the menus.txt file looks like: # type

Several people have given great advice on how to successfully use X11 on Mac to so we can use the dvi previewer to view latex() output from Hmisc. Now after a version upgrade of X11 and X11sdk we are getting lots of crashes. I noticed a Mac dvi previewer with an executable stored as /Applications/TeX/TeXShop.app/Contents/MacOS/TeXShop Can we bypass X11 problems and point Hmisc to this

Sorry if this is already answered somewhere, but I could not find it. I have two vectors, x,y, of different length, and I want to recycle the smaller one (whichever one it is) until they have the same length. I was wondering if there is a anything better than something like: x<-1:3 y<-1:10 x<-rep(x,length=max(x,y)) y<-rep(y,length=max(x,y)) or some variant of that using if to

Hi all, I have some data x, which are actualy consisted of numerical enties. But the class of this matrix is set to be "factor" by someone else. I used "class(x)", it turns out to be "factor". So I can not calculate them. How can I turn them into numerical data so that I can apply math operations on them? Thanks a lot for your help. Selina [[alternative HTML
