Standard error of combination of parameter estimates
Hi, Is there a simple command for computing the standard error of a combination of parameter estimates in a GLM? For example: riskdata$age1 <- riskdata$age riskdata$age2 <- ifelse(riskdata$age<67,0,riskdata$age-67) model <- glm(death~age1+age2+ldl, data=riskdata,family=binomial(link=logit)) And we want to find the standard error of the partial linear predictor for

unlist & dataframes
Dear all, I would like to know whether it is possible to unlist elements and keep the original format of the data. To make it more clear, let me give an exemple: I have a list l of dataframes that I created with apply but which looks like this: x1=data.frame(Name=LETTERS[1:2],Age=1:2) x2=data.frame(Name=LETTERS[3:4],Age=3:4) l=list(x1,x2) l [[1]] Name Age 1 A 1 2 B 2 [[2]] Name

coercing created variables into a new data frame using na.omit()
Hi, I am an R newbie and one thing I am having trouble with binding variables that I have created within one data frame into a new data frame when using na.omit(). To illustrate this problem I will give the example I am working on and the approah I have been using:- data.frame1<-filepath.... attach(data.frame1) #create a new variable using a function new.variable<-rep(1,length(weight3))

calling a variable which in turn calls many more variables
Hi all, I am running regressions with many covariates, most of which remain the same each time (control variables). Instead of writing 30 demographic variables every regression, is there a way I could call them all at once using a variable called, perhaps "demog"? I have tried: > demog <- list(age1, age2, age3) but I get an error when I try to call a list in a regression. I also

Matrix/dataframe indexing
Hi all, I am hoping someone can help me out with this: If I have dataframe of years and ages and the first column and first row are filled with leading values: Df<- age1 age2 age3 Yr1 1 0.4 0.16 Yr2 1.5 0 0 Yr3 0.9 0 0 Yr4 1 0 0 Yr5 1.2 0 0 Yr6 1.4 0 0 Yr7 0.8 0 0 Yr8 0.6 0 0 Yr9 1.1 0 0 Now the rest of the cells need to be filled according to the previous year and age

beginner programming question
Hi all, The last e-mails about beginners gave me the courage to post a question; from a beginner's perspective, there are a lot of questions that I'm tempted to ask. But I'm trying to find the answers either in the documentation, either in the about 15 free books I have, either in the help archives (I often found many similar questions posted in the past). Being an (still actual)

Interpreting Logistic Regression
Hi ! This is Madhavi from Mumbai, India. Incidently this is my first post. I am working on Credit Scoring Model and using R, I have run the logistic regression. I have received following Output. I have two questions (a) What is the significance of "family = binomial(link = logit)". Why do I have to mention Binomial? Is it because my dependent variable assumes only two values 0 and 1?

writing a categorical var. with condition
Hello, I want to create a new variable which includes 4 age categories in this way: if (age>=12 && age<32) age1==1 if (age>=32 && age<52) age1==2 if (age>=52 && age<72) age1==3 if (age>=72 && age<100) age1==4 but I get the results only for the first observation. how can I apply this condition to all observations?

Rounding multinomial proportions
I present you with a function that solves a problem that has bugged me for many years. I think the problem may be general enough to at least consider adding this function, or a revamped version of it, to the 'stats' package, with the other multinomial functions reside. I'm using R to export data to text files, which are input data for an external model written in C++. Parts of the

LM Model
Dear R-Users, How can I put a pre-defined regression model into to an object of class lm in order to use the predict.lm function. A simplified example: I would normally run a regression analysis on a dataset, > germany<-lm(RENT~AGE1, in.mi01) > summary(germany) Call: lm(formula = RENT ~ AGE1, data = in.mi01) Residuals: Min 1Q Median 3Q Max

Trouble passing list or non-list to function using ...
Hello, Simply put, I'm trying to call a function "testme" with value "age=NA". I wish to use "dotlist<-list(...)" inside the function and have dotlist become: $age [1] NA I'm modifying existing code and need to minimize changing that code so it's easiest to conform how I call the existing function.

analysis of covariance and constrained parameters
Consider an analysis of covariance involving age and cohort. The goal is to assess whether the influence of cohort depends upon the age. The simplest case involves data as follows value Age Cohort x1 ????? 1?????? 3 x2?????? 1?????? 4 x3?????? 1?????? 5 x4 ????? 2 ????? 3 x5 ????? 2 ????? 4 x6 ????? 2 ????? 5 etc. Age is a factor. The numeric response variable is value and Cohort is a

Semi Parametric Bootstrap
Greetings to you all, I am performing a semi parametric bootstrap in R on a Gamma Distributed data and a Binomial distributed data. The main challenge am facing is the fact that the residual variance depends on the mean (if I am correct). I strongly feel that the script below may be wrong due to mean-variance relationship #####R code####### fit1s
