Hello! I have no problem reading Excel files (each worksheet in the file is a "table" which can be read - at least in my case). What I would like to do is to read such a table, change it (just the contents, not the format) and write it back, and this I can not do. I am getting the following error messages (3 slightly different attempts): > sqlSave(con, x, tablename =

Is there a convenient way to respond to a particular posting which is a part of the digest? I mean something that will automatically quote the original message, subject, etc. Thank you! Moshe Olshansky m_olshansky at yahoo.com

Dear R Users, I have a network of 25000 total nodes and a list of 500 node which is a subset of all nodes. Now I want to calculate the APSP (all pair shortest path) matrix only for these 500 nodes. I would appreciate any help. Thanks in advance Dinesh -- Dinesh Kumar Barupal Research Associate Metabolomics Fiehn Lab UCD Genome Center 451 East Health Science Drive GBSF Builidng University of

Hello, Below is my code: > A <- matrix(rnorm(10*3),ncol=3) > b <- runif(10) > reg <- lm(b ~ A) > A1 <- matrix(rnorm(5*3),ncol=3) > A1 <- as.data.frame(A1) > b1 <- predict(reg,A1) Warning message: 'newdata' had 5 rows but variables found have 10 rows ? And instead of being an array of length 5, b1 is of length 10 and is identical to reg$fitted.values I

Hello all! Maybe it's a newbie question(in fact I _am_, a newbie), but I hope you'll find the solution. I have an equation system which has k equation and n variables (k<n). I would like to obtain a description of the solutions (which can be the equation of lines or a plane, or everything else) with the lesser degree of freedom, obviously using R. In other words, I would like to

Please forgive me if my question is answered in Help FAQ no. 23481739... In language like C every variable must be declared before it can be used. In VBA, if a variable has not been declared it is assumed to be of a special type (Variant). In R (and Matlab) variables do not have to be declared. This is convenient, but in a large program one can make a typo which will be extremely difficult to

If my sample size is small is there a particular switch option that I need to use with t.test so that it calculates the t ratio correctly? Here is a dummy example? á =0.05 Mean pain reduction for A =27; B =31 and SD are SDA=9 SDB=12 drgA.p<-rnorm(5,27,9); drgB.p<-rnorm(5,31,12) t.test(drgA.p,drgB.p) # what do I need to give as additional parameter here? I can do it manually but

Hi R, I need to generate 50 random numbers (preferably poisson), such that their sum is equal to 100. How do I do this? Thank you, Shubha This e-mail may contain confidential and/or privileged i...{{dropped:13}}

Dear Listers, My post might be somewhat OT. Currently, I am trying to use flexmix to build a finite mixture model. For instance, I am getting the prior probability and coefficients for each latent class from training data. Is there a way to get the posterior probablity and prediction of a new dataset? What I am thinking is to apply the prior prob and coefficient from training set to testing data

Hello! I have a short question: Is it possible to create a (non-existing) Access database using R (and if yes, how)? I need to create a new database and then insert a few tables into it. Thank you in advance, Moshe Olshansky m_olshansky at yahoo.com

Hello All, I have a simple question based on how things are labeled on my heat map; particularly, there is this annoying "X" that appears before the numeric value of all the labels of my columns. Let's say I have the following silly data, stored in "temp.txt" 1905 1910 1950 1992 2011 2020 Gnat 0.08 0.29 0.29 0.37 0.39 0.43 Snake

I tried toy problems and there doesn't seem to be a basic problem between lm() and ts objects: X = data.frame(x=c(1,2,7,9), y=c(7,2,3,1)) lm(y ~ x, X) X <- lapply(X, function(x) ts(x, frequency=12, start=c(1994,7))) lm(y ~ x, X) and this works fine - whether you do an lm() before or after making ts objects, it's okay. But I have a situation where things aren't okay.

hello, I asked about this simulation a few days ago, but still i can't get what i need. I have 2 units: icu and regular. from icu I want to take 200 observations from binomial distribution, when probability for disease is: p=0.6. from regular I want to take 300 observation with the same probability: p=0.6 . the distribution to detect disease when disease occurred- *for someone from icu* - is:

Hi all, I've been hitting the odd floating point exception errors using the new alpha encoders. They're encoding a live stream so I can't reproduce the crash on demand, and it might only happen once every few days so it's been fun trying to get a backtrace. The crash happens in a fairly scary block of code, I wouldn't have a clue where to begin trying to fix it!

Hello, all. The following is for my own research. I have attached the relevant data in pdf from Transparency International. I am only interested in the "CPI 2010 scores" column. I am interested in creating a variable for several of these countries. The idea is, they will become a country level aggregate IV "corruption". I am running models on about 10 countries,
