Full_Name: Stefan Raberger Version: 2.8.1 OS: Windows XP Submission from: (NULL) (213.185.163.242) Hi there, I recently noticed some strange behaviour of the command "type.convert", depending on the startup mode used. But there also seems to be different behaviour on different PCs (all running the same OS and the same version of R). On PC1: When I start R in SDI mode (RGui --no-save

Hi, Fedora is for Fedora 9 switching to gcc 4.3. Before I test it (rawhide) I want to be sure that R is running. So my question is whether there have been issues compiling R + packages using 4.3? Stefan

Dear List: When I click on the link to download a reference manual for a package on cran, I get an error message that the file is damaged and could not be repaired. I randomly chose various packages and the same error message appears. Are the links actually broken? I have also restarted my machine and closed and re-opened acrobat. I am using Windows XP, Acrobat Professional 6.0.0.5, and

Hello, I use t.test for normal distributed and wilcox.test for non-normal distributed samples. It is easy to write a function for t.test that calculates the effect size, because all parts of the formula are available from the t.test result: r = sqrt(t*t / (t*t + df)) However, for Wilcoxon tests, the formula for effect sizes is: r = Z / sqrt(N) I wonder how I can calculate the Z-score in R for

Hello, I'm trying to plot a fitted lm() line on a plot when the one explanatory variable is log transformed and log="x". I get different lines using abline and predict.lm(). #Example x <- 1:100 y <- rnorm(100) plot(y ~ x, log="x") abline(lm(y ~ log(x))) lines(x, predict(lm(y ~ log(x))), lwd=2) I'm sure I'm missing something but could someone tell me which

Hi, I just started with R and I found that there are many options to rearrange the data to do mixed models. I want to use the reshape function. I have 2 between subject variables and one within. I was able to change the data structure but still - the result of the aov functions are calculating everything as a within subject. the table looks like this: SerialNo breed treatment distance_1

Dear all, Is there a less cumbersome way to rename a column by name (as opposed to index) than -- names( X)[ names[ X] == "bob"]<-"sue" ? A semi-related question: how does one get the index of a column by name, something along the lines of col.index( X, "sue") ?

Hey list, Does anybody knows a command to centre the tick mark labels exactly between the tick points (right shift)? And then to exclude the last tick label on the right? I know one can shift them using the 'hadj' option in par. But I am wondering if there is a more convenient command! Thanks a lot!! Stefan [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi I had observed the following problem in R (also C, Matlab, and Python). sprintf('%1.2g\n', 3.15) give 3.1 instead of 3.2 whereas an input of 3.75 gives 3.8. Java's System.out.printf is ok though. > round(3.75,1) [1] 3.8 > round(3.15,1) [1] 3.1 Similar outcome with sprintf in R. However, the right answer should be 3.2 Regards Teckpor [[alternative HTML version

Hi, The following function works, but is there a neater way to write it? f = function(x,...) { # return a character vector of the arguments passed in after 'x' gsub(" ","",unlist(strsplit(deparse(substitute(list(...))),"[(,)]")))[-1] } > f(x,a,b,c*d) [1] "a" "b" "c*d" > Thanks. [[alternative HTML

Hello, I have a dataframe which I read from a file: df <- readtable(myFile); The dataframe has 4 columns: "model", "count", "value" and "date" where "model" and "date" are made of charactors and "count" and "value" are numbers. An example is like: model count value date A 4 20.8

It works! But Once I have the square root of this matrix, how do I convert it to a real (not imaginary) matrix which has the same property? Is that possible?

Dear R users, I want to generate two random variables (X1, X2) from uniform distribution (-0.5, 0.5) with a specified correlation coefficient r. Does anyone know how to do it in R? Many thanks! Menghui

Hallo! I just started working with R to do the statistical analyses for my diploma thesis. I got two sets of data. Both contain repeated measures. One has only one within-subject factor with four levels. The other has one within-subject factor with two levels and one between-factor with two levels. I want to compute a Mauchly test for both sets and a Levene test for the second set. I

Me and some colleagues are planning to write a textbook together ("Statistics using R") where the target audience for the book is psychologists and students of psychology. We thought that it might be a good idea to use a Wiki when writing the text. Is that a good idea? Does anybody have any experience in that direction? What alternatives are there? The tool (Wiki) would have to be
