similar to: is there something like or() ?

Dear list, My apologies if a solution / explanation to this already exists on the list, but it is difficult to assign it to a certain keyword. test<-c(1:3) testfct <- function(x) {test[1]<-100} test [1] 1 2 3 testfct(1) [1] 1 2 3 Basically, I would like to write data into an external table that the function does not know. Why is this not working / what alternatives exist? Thanks,

Dear R-list I am (forced) to change from Linux to Mac and am now looking for a new editor for R. I would like one that features a split window (console + editor) as well as syntax highlighting. Can anyone help? Especially the split-window feature does not seem to be easily available in the editors desribed on the R-help site, except Emacs, which I am reluctant to start using. I am on a MacBook Air

Hello, anyone got an idea on how to use stl() so that the remainder eventually becomes white noise? i used stl repeatedly but there is autocorrelation in the remainder that i can't get rid of. os: linux suse9.3 ------------------------------------------------ Sebastian Leuzinger Institute of Botany, University of Basel Sch??nbeinstr. 6 CH-4056 Basel ph 0041 (0) 61 2673511 fax 0041 (0)

hello, has anyone come across the following rather mysterious problem: when pasting large bits of code (100 and more lines) into the R console with the central mouse button (under linux), only part of the code is pasted, and the text interrupts somewhere arbitrarily. It does not happen when smaller bits are pasted subsequently. I use linux suse 9.3 with the latest version of R

Hello A very short question: Using multiple plots with par(mfrow=c(3,3)), how can I get R to indicate one common y- and x-axis label? I tried to use text() in par, but this is then overwritten when I plot the graphs. -- Sebastian Leuzinger Institute of Botany, University of Basel Schönbeinstr. 6 CH-4056 Basel Ph. 0041 (0) 61 267 3511 fax 0041 (0) 61 2673504 email: Sebastian.Leuzinger@unibas.ch

hello, is R able to suppress tick labels (not tick marks)? i know there is a way around this with axes=F and then draw new axes, but it would be easier to suppress them in the first place. -- ------------------------------------------------ Sebastian Leuzinger Institute of Botany, University of Basel Sch??nbeinstr. 6 CH-4056 Basel ph 0041 (0) 61 2673511 fax 0041 (0) 61 2673504 email

it must be terribly simple, can someone quickly help me? test <- data.frame(y=c(1:10), x=as.factor(c(rep("a",5),rep("b",5)))) how can i change the factor labels from "a" and "b" to for example "u" and "v"? i don't succeed with factor() thanks a lot ------------------------------------------------ Sebastian Leuzinger

Dear all, Please, I have a doubt regarding symbol plotting with data originating from a table. Please, see below: I have a tab delimited file called table1.txt with 4 columns: ypos animal var1 var2 5 cat gina <= lady gina \u2264 lady 7 dog bill >= tony bill \u2265 tony 9 fish dude <= bro dude \u2264 bro #I then load in the data to R: table1<-read.table("table1.txt",

Please, I wonder if someone knows how to add the less than or equal to symbol in the plot generated by the code below: var1<-c('age <= 3','age <= 7','age <= 10','age <= 11','age <= 20','age <= 25','age <= 30','age <= 45','age <= 50','age < 55','age >= 55')

Dear r-list, I am trying to visually seperate the two main clusters of a dendrogram. The idea is to use: 'edgePar=list(lty=3)' for 'dend1[[1]]' and 'edgePar=list(lty=1)' for 'dend1[[2]]' I have not found a way to solve this. Any suggestions? Patrick hc <- hclust(dist(USArrests), "ave") (dend1 <- as.dendrogram(hc)) par(mfrow=c(2,2)) plot(dend1)

Dear list, I'm looking for an inverse function of melt(which is in package reshape).Namely, I had a data frame like this (Table1) YEAR VAR1 VAR2 VAR3 1995 7 3 45 1996 5 6 32 1997 6 10 15 I transformed my data by using the melt function and my data was reshaped in the following format: (Table2) YEAR variable

Dear R-helpers, I try to perform glm's with negative binomial distributed data. So I use the MASS library and the commands: model_1 = glm.nb(response ~ y1 + y2 + ...+ yi, data = data.frame) and predict(model_1, newdata = data.frame) So far, I think everything should be ok. But when I want to perform a glm with a subset of the data, I run into an error message as soon as I want to predict

Hi all Maybe a stupid question, but I'm not able to figure this out from the manpage nor from the HOWTOs... How can I force a user to change his password at next logon? I tried: # pdbedit -P "user must logon to change password" -C 0 -u username # pdbedit -u username -P "user must logon to change password" -C 0 # pdbedit -P "user must logon to change password"

Dear Torsten, dear samba list reader Three days ago I switched our domain from a NT 4 domaincontroller to Samba-OpenLDAP, controlled by a Debian Sarge system.

Sorry, but I'm very new to R. I'm trying to figure out how to convert a column from a data frame to a vector. More specifically, I have read in a comma separated value table which contains a number of variables in columns, plots in rows... t <- read.table("G:/R/table1.txt", sep=",", header=TRUE) the data comes in just fine. Now I want to do an XY plot of 2
