Hi I just realized that when I use linear regression to draw a line through my data points with something like the following: abline(lm(y ~ x)) the length of the line is infinite, i.e., the line goes beyond the smallest and the largest data values. This seems not very right to me (not to mention it looks unaesthetic). I do not mean to imply that the straight-line behavior of my system is

Hi, I am trying to plot multiple lines on one plot such that all lines are of the same color (black) and continuous. I need to distinguish these multiple plots from each other by using different symbols (I am using pch=). However, all my lines are broken on both sides of the symbols. This unfortunate (and unsightly) behavior seems to be the default. In my search of the help archives for R over

Hi Everyone, I have two very basic questions and would appreciate your help. 1. I would like to see/access the data that comes with a given R package by using a function like read.table(). For example, I just installed car package from CRAN. I know that somewhere within the package, there is Duncan.txt file. I would not only like to look at it from file browser (or using ls command in shell) but

Hi I have patched together (from various sources) the following code to get semi-logarithmic plot. Unfortunately, my labels come out also at intermediate places between 10^2, 10^3, 10^4 etc. Since I put the code together from various sources and do not understand fully how the code is working, I have not been able to get rid of the labels like 10^1.69897, 10^2.69897 etc. I would appreciate if

Hi Everyone, I am trying to understand the unstack() function but after struggling for two days, I have given up. More specifically, I am trying the exercises at the end of Chapter 1 of Data Analysis and Graphics Using R by Maindonald and Braun, 2nd ed. Exercise 18 (p. 41) asks to unstack the Rabbit data frame from the MASS package to get a certain data frame that is shown in the exercise.

Dear R-help, I am trying to express myself as best as I can here. If you also use Latex to edit math reports or other languages with similar editing method, you'll see what I'm talking about. My sincere appologies if my question is not clear enough to some extend, as also I'm not able to provide my code here because I don`t know which one I can use... When editing the title in R

Hi Everyone, I am new R user and am trying to learn by reading the online manual "An Introduction to R" from the R web site. I am trying to practice using the scan() function as explained in the manual. For this I first created three vectors (one a character vector and two numeric one) and saved file "input.dat" in my working directory as: > label <- c("Bill",

Hi Everyone, I am a beginner running R 2.9.2 under Ubuntu and typically use Emacs w/ESS. However, I am confused with history() command. When I issue command history() in Emacs within an R session, this is what get: > history() Error in savehistory(file) : no history available to save Similarly, history(max=10) command gives the same error message. However, there is this In/Out Menu in the

Hi, How can I get the '2+' into superscript in the following title: '[Ca2+]i onsets' I tried the command below, but it doesn't work.

Hi I am a novice user of R. I got hold of "R Graphics" by P. Murrell the other day and am trying to follow examples in the book. In chapter 3, the section on font specification gives 16 "basic" font families and face combinations available in R (Figure 3.9). However, the book also warns that even if a font specification is given, it does not mean that the font will always be

Hi, I wonder whether the following is possible with R, and whether anyone has done that and can share his/her code with me. I have a correlation matrix, and I want to create a correlation table that I can copy to Microsoft Word with a superscript above each correlation, indicating significant differences in the same row. That is, when correlations in the same row do not share superscript, it means

Is there a way to get subscripts and superscripts on the left hand side of a symbol?

Dear list, using the packages Hmisc and lattice i produced some nice xYplots. However, since the data range of the conditioning variable is very big, i need to define more than one y-scale for the plot (in some panels you just see a flat line of data points very close to the x-axis), e.g. different y-axis scales for the different rows of the plot. Is there a way to do so? Thanks, Henning

Hi everyone, I am trying to write a title for a plot which has a superscript like D^2 and a value of a variable stored in that variable..... i am not sure if i am clear so i will try an example: Suppose i want my title to be like: Family: Gaussian; D^2 = 0.45 where i have the value 0.45 stored in variable d2 (which comes from some previous calculations, and depending which actual variables

Hi- A journal has asked me to make all of my text annotations on a figure at 10-point size. For the most part this is easy, e.g. by creating figures with: pdf(..., family='Times', pointsize=10) But where I have superscripts (or subscripts) in axis labels, the default seems to be to shrink the superscripted text slightly. For example this code:

Hi All, I am having trouble getting a complex subscript to work. I'm sure it's possible. Here is what I have: ylab=expression(paste("log ",L[peak]," [erg ",s^{-1},"]")), I would like to have the subscript read "peak,gamma" where the gamma would be the greek symbol. I do want the comma to show as well. Thanks, EM

Hi all, I'm having problems finding the correct format for a command. I would like to write some text on a plot. I'm using the following command: text(x,y,"text here", srt=90) I would like the text to read: capacity 10^3 m^3 (with ^ denoting superscript (i.e. each '3' as superscript). I've tried fiddling around with expression(paste(etc.... to no avail. I

Hi Everyone, I have a few fairly basic questions about upgrading and installing R packages. First off, I am using Ubuntu Hardy Heron and have R 2.7.1 installed and working perfectly. I usually access R via Emacs ESS interface which I am still trying to get the hang of. My questions and issues are as follows: Question 1: I started R and wanted to upgrade the installed R packages. So, I issue the

Dear List, I need to add a subscript and a superscript to some of the ions in the labels on some plots. I have got to here but now I'm stuck: plot(1:10, xlab = expression(paste("nm SO"[4], " ", mu, "eq cm"^{-2}, " yr"^{-1}))) Which gives almost what I require. No matter what I tried, however, I could not get bot a sub script *and* a superscript
