Hi, this is probably quite stupid but I have no clue what's wrong. Let's say I write the function hline <- function() { cat("\\hline \n") } and call hline() from within a Sweave chunk. Why is there no carriage return after the \hline in the resulting tex file? if I call hline() hline() in the chunk, then I get \hline \hline in the tex code without a linebreak in

Hi, how can i play around with my first selfwritten package [*] without to install it to my debian system?

Hi, i create two constants kilo and milli in [1]. These should be available after loading library(sitools) How should i export them and what have i done wrong?

when i plot with the following command on console: $ R CMD BATCH cp_messung.R in the R-script i wrote x11() in the beginning, so it draws a nice plot on my screen. But sadly it disappeares after a second or two. How can i make it to wait until i press a key or something? thank you. -- kind regards, Jonas Stein <news at jonasstein.de>

i'd like to plot a legend in my diagram. The diagram will be included in a TikZ LaTeX document later. I tried the legend() function, but - it can not find a good place it self where the legend fits and playing around with coordinates and scaling consumes a lot time - standard settings for the text need adjustment (linespacing is quite large and so on) Is there an alternative to

Hi, fp is a data frame like this ,----[ fp ] | Frequenz AmpNorm | 1 3322 0.0379490639 | 2 3061 0.0476033058 | 3 2833 0.0592954124 | 4 2242 0.1275510204 `---- i want to find the "Frequenz" where "AmpNorm" is max. I use this line as workaround: PeakFreqHz = subset(fp, AmpNorm == max(AmpNorm))$Frequenz[1] Is there something nicer? And is there an

i want to plot values with frequency on a logarithmic x axis. similar to this example that i found in the web: http://www.usspeaker.com/jensen%20p15n-graph.gif I would like to convert long numbers to si prefix notation like in the example (200000 to 200k, 35000000 to 3.5 M) Of course i could create labels by hand, but i have many files so i need some automatic function. Has anyone done that

Hi, i want to make my plots look uniform in LaTeX documents. - usage of the same font on axes and in legend like LaTeX uses (for example "Computer Modern") - put real LaTeX formulas on the axes Have you any hints how i can achieve that?

Why fails nls with "singular gradient" here? I post a minimal example on the bottom and would be very happy if someone could help me.

Dear R users: When I create a table without Major Column headings, my *regular* column headings appear correct in the typeset latex file. The major row heading and row groups are as they should. w <- latex(mytab,title="",file="tab/my.tex",ctable=TRUE,caption="Descriptive statistics by

Hi, while searching for a solution i found many solutions in the internet. But the postings seemed to be many years old and the workaround was a dirty hack like this: http://cran.r-project.org/doc/FAQ/R-FAQ.html#How-can-I-create-rotated-axis-labels_003f Now its the year 2009 and there might have been some improvement... Does anyone know a nice and easy way to turn labels on the y axis in the

Hi, may be its a very simple question, but i did not find any documentation about a 'include' command or something like this. I have to set many constants in my R-files and want to move all these to one file, so that i can reuse it in all other R-files. Something like include("~/R/myconstants.R") kind regards, -- Jonas Stein <news at jonasstein.de>

Hi i have a list of many files and want to load them into a list of tables, that can be adressed with a variable 'i'. something like files = c("0125um","2000um","2200um","2500um","2700um") for (i in 1:5) { fp[i] <- read.table( files[i] ) } but this does not work of course. Has anyone a good hint? Thank you, -- Jonas Stein

Hi, how can i adjust the font in a ggplot2 qplot so that it will look similar to the LaTeX font? Computer Modern Sans Serif in the same size would be nice. My output device is ggsave(filename="test.pdf", width=5.5, height=3, dpi=300) and i will include the graphic with 5.5 inch in LaTeX. I found some pages about that topic but all solutions that i found have been very complicate

Hi, I think there is a minor bug in odfWeave. In the function odfStyleGen, the following line has an extra "=": if(length(grep("italic", thisStyle$fontType))) fontText <- c(fontText, tagattr("fo:font-style=", "italic")) This is creating an error if some text needs to be formatted as italic, since the corresponding entry in

Hi R-users, I have to define a noise level function L and its energy in the various moment of the day by: if time is between 18:00:00 and 23:59:59 then L[j] <- L[j]+5 and W <- 10^((L+5)/10) if time is between 22:00:00 and 05:59:59 ==> L <- L+10 and W <- 10^((L+10)/10) else L=L and W = W Could someone help me to realize this function please?
