Dear friends. I've forgotten how to simulate data with a known correlation, e.g. only two columns. I'd be most pleased to be told.

move or copy the directories mass, nnet and class to the library directory - then execute link.html.help() Now execute library(MASS) and data(petrol) Should work. "Troels Ring"

Hi, I'm using windows xp and R 2.8.0 - I wonder what is the command to put in a script that has the same effect as when in a plot you choose menu "History" and "Recording".

Dear friends. I have trobpe with path. Below I have tried to paste a path and file name but it will not work > path <- "D:/rw0641/own/own/procedures/GFR_TIME" > path [1] "D:/rw0641/own/own/procedures/GFR_TIME" > path1 <- paste(path,"gfr.txt",sep="/") > path1 [1] "D:/rw0641/own/own/procedures/GFR_TIME/gfr.txt" -- this is good

Dear friends - I'm on windows, R 2.7.0 I try again asking if anyone can explain why a single pig of 16 makes so wild swings. Warnings are issued, and they are 1: pseudoinverse used at 482.1 2: neighborhood radius 242.1 3: reciprocal condition number 0 4: at 360 5: radius 14400 6: all data on boundary of neighborhood. make span bigger 7: There are other near singularities as well. 14400 8:

dear friends - I have an ordered factor, ID, in a data.frame, labs, and make a table, aa <- with(labs,table(val >150,ID)) - and now the order in the table is according to the alphabetic order in ID, and not as I want it. I have tried adding [order(unique(labs$ID)] but it doesn't help. I have R 2.7.1 on WinXP. Best wishes Troels -- Troels Ring - - Department of nephrology - -

Dear friends - please give me a hand. I have a dataset of 40 patients in two groups observed on three occasions. I only want to plot a line for each patient in the two groups. I use the ltext function to put the patient number but fail to make lattice understand the numbers as unique since apparently it starts all over with 1:20 for each panel instead of respecting my desires to have 1:20

Dear friends, I was drawing a circle with centrum in (1,-1) and radius 5 to show my girl that the line y=3*x+1 goes through (1,4) and (-2,-5) of the circle, but on Windows XP, R 2.20 the drawing was not good at all, and the known solutions were not shown in the graph. I guess I got it wrong? Is this use not intended ? Best wishes Troels Ring, MD Aalborg, Denmark

Dear friends - I'm using Tinn-R in Windows and find it OK. My son is running MacOS and is just starting using R and I know nothing about MacOS and R but we seem to have difficulties in finding something similar to Tinn for MaC. What are your suggestions? Thanks a lot! Troels Ring, MD Aalborg, Denmark

Dear Friends, I'm using winXP and R 1.7.1 and plotting some data using dates on the x-axis, and wanted to use identify to show some points but was told by identify that the x and y vectors producing a fine graph with 84 points were not equal in length. Below are the Dato for date - and length(Dato) finds 9 but str finds 84 as known. Will identify not work in this context ? Best wishes

Dear friends - I'm on winXP, R 2.71 - I have with some help dveloped this multivariate normal model, which gives very plausible results in WinBUGS even without any initial values specified. However, when I then try to run the same model via the bugs function in R2WinBUGS with inits specified as inits=NULL the program stops in a dead end. So I have tried to make inits for the bugs function

I hope you will forgive me this simple question on titration. I'm trying to find very small values from the algorithm below, which I believe is correctly formatted, and the constants are also correct. When SID goes over ATOT, fitted vales are much too low compared to the literature. I guess I must be using optimize in a wrong way but cannot find out how to improve it. I'm on windows, R

Dear friends. In the documentation for PAR it is specified that "las" allowing turning axis labels away from default=parallel to axis is not implemented. I need to make graphs with horizontal Y axis labels - how to ? I'm using win98. Thank you in advance. Sincerely yours Troels Ring, MD Department of Nephrology Aalborg Hospital Aalborg Denmark

Dear friends - below is a subset of a much larger material showing two ways of generating two "lines". The intention is to have the colour reflect a variable, pH, but the legend is disturbed. The little part marked "3" above the colour scale is unwelcome. Why did it appear? How could I avoid it? I'm on Windows 7, R version 3.4.1 (2017-06-30) -- "Single

Dear friends. When using in windows version the menu function to change directory, what actions are actually performed, i.e. what commands could I write to a file to make a CD ? I couldn't find it mentioned anywhere - undoubtedly an oversigth on my part. Troels Ring, M.D Department of Nephrology Aalborg, Denmark tring at mail1.stofanet.dk

Dear friends, I have struggled to do what is likely rather simple but cannot get it working. I have a dataframe with 428 obs. of 5 variables on 26 patients. Two variables are responses, one an index of patients (1:26), one a period-indicator :1 :max 3, and one total time from min 1 to max 36 weeks (max 21 entries). A complete set would be 26*21=546 long but here are only 428 entries. Now,

Dear friends, I found the thread on this subject this summer but wonder whether it has been taken any further. I have an important medical problem where X is computed from a three independent and complicated measurements (exchangeable sodium and potassium and total body water - i.e. X = (Nae+Ke)/TBW ) and Y is serum sodium concentration (all data in Edelman, JCI 1958). I have the individual

Dear friends - I hope you will accept a naive question on lm: R version 3.4.1, Windows 10 I have 204 "baskets" of three types corresponding to factor F, each of size from 2 to 33 containing measurements, and need to know if the standard deviation on the measurements in each basket,sdd, is different across types, F. Plotting the observed sdd versus the sizes from 2 to 33, called
