Data Simulation in R
Dear List:
A few weeks ago I posted some questions regarding data simulation and
received some very helpful comments, thank you. I have modified my code
accordingly and have made some progress.
However, I now am facing a new challenge along similar lines. I am
attempting to simulate 250 datasets and then run the data through a
linear model. I use rm() and gc() as I move along to clean up the

Multilevel Analyses in R
I am new to R and would like to get some practice analyzing multilevel data. I wonder if anyone can point me to a sample data set and command lines that I might replicate for a sample session. I would then compare my output with HLM output.
Any help is appreciated.

Does R accumulate memory
Dear List:
I am running into a memory issue that I haven't noticed before. I am
running a simulation with all of the code used below. I have increased
my memory to 712mb and have a total of 1 gb on my machine.
What appears to be happening is I run a simulation where I create 1,000
datasets with a sample size of 100. I then run each dataset through a
gls and obtain some estimates.
This works

Referencing objects within a loop
Dear List:
It appears that simulating data where all dataframes are stored as a
list will only work for relatively small analyses. Instead, it appears
that creating N individual dataframes, saving them, and loading them
when needed is the best way to save memory and make this a feasible
task.
As such, I now have a new(er) question with respect to dealing with
individual files within a loop. To

Adding an Sweave Vignette to a package
I'm finalizing development of a package that will include a vignette.
Without the vignette, the package builds fine with no warnings and is
ready for distribution. Now, I am following the directions for
developing vignettes "Sweave, Part II: Package Vignettes" by Friedrich
Leisch.
I am using a windows XP machine (other session info below). Here is what

Use R in a pipeline as a filter
Hi,
how can I use R in a pipline like this
$ ./generate-data | R --script-file=Script.R | ./further-analyse-data > result.dat
Assume a column based output of ./generate-data, e.g. something like:
1 1 1
2 4 8
3 9 27
4 16 64
The R commands that process the data should come from Script.R and should print to stdout (Script.R could for example calculate the square of every entry or calculate

POSIX primer
I have not used POSIX classes previously and now have a need to use them. I have sports data with times of some athletes after different events. I need to perform some simple analyses using the times. I think I've figured out how to do this. I just want to confirm with others who have more experience that this is indeed the correct approach. If not, please suggest a more appropriate way.

Technique for reading large sparse fwf data file
Dear list:
A datafile was sent to me that is very large (92890 x 1620) and is *very* sparse. Instead of leaving the entries with missing data blank, each cell with missing data contains a dot (.)
The data are binary in almost all columns, with only a few columns containing whole numbers, which I believe requires 2 bytes for the binary and 4 for the others. So, by my calculations (assuming 4

varFixed
Dear List:
Earlier this week I posted a question and received no response, and I continue to struggle with my model. My original question is pasted below.
I am using lme and want to fix the variance of the within group residual at 1 (e~n(0,1). I think the varFixed function should be used to accomplish this, but I am struggling to figure out how to do this.
Can anyone offer suggestions on how

Broken links on CRAN
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.

Making tapply code more efficient
Previously, I posed the question pasted down below to the list and
received some very helpful responses. While the code suggestions
provided in response indeed work, they seem to only work with *very*
small data sets and so I wanted to follow up and see if anyone had ideas
for better efficiency. I was quite embarrased on this as our SAS
programmers cranked out programs that did this in the blink

[LLVMdev] GC infrastructure checked in
Everything described in GarbageCollection.html should now be live. Phew!
The collectors could use a review, but they compile, have no impact
unless used, and tests would otherwise have had to be XFAILed waiting
on them.
The ShadowStackCollector has one issue that may be of interest in that
it adds constant globals in a runOnFunction context. This is bad in
theory, but actually is

Fatal Error

When trying to open 1.9.0 this morning, I have the following error:
"Fatal Error: Unable to restore saved data in .Rdata"
I am using Windows 2000.
The program then quits. Do I need to reinstall?

R as a scripting engine
Those of you tracking R development will have noticed that we are
moving towards using R as a scripting engine. (It is often overlooked
as such.) Thus far INSTALL, REMOVE, SHLIB and massage-examples have
been moved to R.
Reasons:
- it is platform-independent and needs no other tools installed.
No need to worry about strange 'sh' variants (as on AIX and in the
past on Mac OS X)

isoMDS

I have a question regarding an MDS procedure that I am accustomed to
using. I have searched around the archives a bit and the help doc and
still need a little assistance. The package isoMDS is what I need to
perform the non-metric scaling, but I am working with similarity
matrices, not dissimilarities. The question may end up being resolved
simply.

Off-topic: Comparing standard errors from simulation and analytical model
Dear list:
I'm hoping to tap in to the statistical expertise in the group,
especially those familiar with simulation techniques. I'm finalizing a
study where I obtain standard errors from two sources. The first source
is a monte carlo simulation and the other source is an analytical model
I have developed that appears to recover the standard errors from the
simulation. All analysis are

Basic vector operations was: Function to approximate complex integral
Dear List
I apologize for the multiple postings. After being in the weeds on this
problem for a while I think my original post may have been a little
cryptic. I think I can be clearer. Essentially, I need the following
a <- c(2,3)
b <- c(4,5,6)
(2*4) + (2*5) + (2*6) + (3*4) + (3*5) +(3*6)
But I do not know of a built in function that would do this. Any
suggestions?
