Reading in a large number of dbf files
good morning This question is not a stats question per say but a data management and lattice plotting problem. I apologize now if I'm asking an inappropriate question to this gracious group. I'm need to bring in approximately 100 *.dbf files into R but I'm having difficultly understanding several examples I've tracked down regarding this procedure and could benefit from your

Upgrading to TINN - R 2.1.1.6
I know this has been addressed before, but I'm still confused by the solution. When running TINN - R (ver 2.1.1.6) with R (2.8.0) I have lost the functionality of TINN-R It returns an error source(.trPaths[5], echo=TRUE, max.deparse.length=150) I modified the RProfile.site file as follows: options(pager="interal") .trPaths=c( 'C:/Documents and

Plotting skewed normal distribution with a bar plot
Hi, I need to create a plot (type = "h") and then overlay a skewed-normal curve on this distribution, but I'm not finding a procedure to accomplish this. I want to use the plot function here in order to control the bin distributions. I have explored the sn library and found the dsn function. dsn uses known location, scaling and shape parameters associated with a given input

Clustering with ordinal data
Hello I've been asked to help evaluate a vegetation data set, specifically to examine it for community similarity. The initial problem I see is that the data is ordinal. At best this only captures a relative ranking of abundance and ordinal ranks are assigned after data collection. I've been trying to find a procedure in R that can handle ordinal based classification and so far have

Ctree Question
Hello, I've been using ctree and have developed a 55 node - 28 terminal solution. As can be imagined, the plot is difficult to travel down each of the major branches. I've read the help files for ctree I saw where terminal nodes can be color coded. plot(airct, type = "simple") > plot(airct, terminal_panel = node_boxplot(airct, col = "blue", + fill = hsv(2/3,

numbers not behaving as expected
If someone can explain this odd behavior I'd appreciate it. I have a data.frame Cell.ave (attached and created via dput(Cell.ave, "Cell.ave") which contains three columns of parameters year, month and AveRain. I need to subset the data.frame by months such that DrySeaonMonths are 1,2,3,4, 11, and 12 or Jan - April, November and December and WetSeasonMonths are 5:10 or

graphing netCDF files
Hello I'm working with a large hydrological data set stored in a netCDF format. The file stores x and y coordinates in the UTM projected coordinate system, yet when I use image to graphically display the z variable, the image is distorted in the sense that it does not plot the map in the correct spatial organization. I'm wondering if I need to define the projection of the netCDF file

automating a script to read a file
Hi, The following script (which I did not develop) is used to calculate and plot a skewed normal curve. The script currently requires the user to input six parameters, rather than reading these directly from a file. I've been spinning wheels here, trying to figure out how to modify the script to automate it. I have four data sets, each in excess of 300 records that I need to process. My

Plotting from a list
Hello, I am working with version 2.7.2 on a PC and have 2.8.0 available, but have not upgraded completely yet. I have 6 species for which I've run 6 unique environmental management scenarios against for comparison purposes. Each scenario is run for 36 years (1965 - 2000). Some of the species have subpopulations and other do not. For those with subpopulations (A, B, C, D, E, and F) I have
