Hi I know how to referenc R in a scientific paper - but is there a standardised way to reference packages?

Hi I tried to install rkward under ubuntu hardy heron, but it tried to use the one from the cran repository which was newer, but it did not install. To be able to install rkward, I had to disable the cran repository, install rkward, lock it's version and enable the repository again. I have the feeling, that the dependencies are not correct (it is looking for libqt4GUI, but I have a

Hi I created a complex layout with using layout() and it looks exactly as I need it. But I don't want to print in the order in which the subfigure are numbered, but in a different order. How can I navigate in the layout so that I can specify the subfigure in which to plot? At the moment I am using a function which is converting the number to mfg parameter for par, but it does not seem to

Hi Sorry for crossposting, but I think this can be of interest for GRASS and R users. I am planning to write a package to make the use of GRASS from R easier. The idea is to wrap the system call to execute the GRASS command into an R command of the same name. e.g: r.to.vect <- function(..., intern=TRUE, ignore.stderr=FALSE) { comm <- paste( "r.to.vect ", ...,

Hi I am trying to install the package "pheno", but it needs the package "nprq" by Roger Koenker et al. which I can I find this package? It does not seem to be on CRAN and googling also doesn't give me an URL - is it still somewhere available?

Hi I have a plist t which contains size measurements of individual plants, identified by the field "plate". It contains, among other, a field "year" indicating the year in which the individual was measured and the "height". The number of measurements range from 1 to 4 measurements in different years. My problem is that I would need the LAST measurement. I only

Hello everyone, I run R on Gentoo Linux and this week I upgraded R from 2.5.0 to 2.6.0. With the new build, I have stumbled upon an unpleasant problem: I can no longer install packages from CRAN through a transparent proxy. With the previous version, I simply added to /usr/lib/R/etc/Renviron the following line and it functioned like a charm: ## Proxy settings http_proxy="SERVER:3128"

Hi, I used the following statements to generate unsuccessfully a 5 by 5 multiple densityplots on a single page. If I use plot, the whole thing works. > data <- matrix(rnorm(25), 5, 5) > op <- par(mfrow = c(5, 5)) > for (x in 1:5) {densityplot(data[,x])} > par(op) Thanks Stanley [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

hello all i searched the archives and couldn't get a solution to the following question. i have the following function: F=function(z,v) { if (v==-.5) return(1) else return(2*v/z + 1/Recall(z,v-1)) } and while testing whether it works (ie F(z,v) is approx = besselK(z,1+v)/besselK(z,V). the recursion formula allows one to calculate besselK(z,1+v)/besselK(z,V) for large values of z )

Hi I am running analysis with Kcross from the package spatstat and I am getting a message that R can not allocate enough memory for a vector of 900MB. R seems to be running towards the 2GB limit per process. The dataset is not to big (ca 3000 points) but the mask for the points is extremely irregular (a buffer around roads which have been sampled) and I can do trhe analysis if I use a

hello all sorry for the following "none" R related question. does anyone know of a reference to calculate the following identity: |I + ABC| where I is an identity matrix and A, B,C may not have to be square matrices? you help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi I just installed the pastecs package and I am wondering: is there an english (or german) translation of the file pastecs.pdf? If not, is there an explanation somewhere of the object of type 'turnpoints' as a result of turnpoints(), especially the "info" field?

Hi all, I have some wind data (U and V components) and I would like to compute Vorticity and Divergence of these fields. Is there any R function that can easily do that?

Hi I use the following code and it stores the results of density() in the list dr: dens <- function(run) { density( positions$X[positions$run==run], bw=3, cut=-2 ) } dr <- lapply(1:5, dens) but the results are stored in dr[[i]] and not dr[i], i.e. plot(dr[[1]]) works, but plot([1]) doesn't. Is there any way that I can store them in dr[i]? Thanks a lot, Rainer -- Rainer M. Krug,

Hi I have a large dataset which follows a multimodal distribution. And I would like to identify the maxima. As the data is obtained from a stochastic simulation, not all maxima in the data are "real maxima of the dirstribution" but rather small random fluctuations. Unfortunately, it is not possible for me to run more simulations to smooth the obtained distribution. What I am doing

hello R users strange behavior of the integrate function! i assume this occurs because of the way in which the quadriture is set up!
