Creating subsets of a matrix
Hello, Say I have 2 columns, bmi and gender, the first being all the values and the second being male or female. How would I subset this into males only and females only? I have searched these fora and read endlessly about select[] and split() functions but to no avail. Also the table is not ordered. bmi gender -> bmi gender + bmi gender 1 24.78 male

Is this an artifact of using "which"?
Dear all, I used "which" to obtain a subset of values from my data.frame. however, I find that there is a "trace" of the values I have removed. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciate. Below is my data: d <- data.frame( val = 1:10, group = sample(LETTERS[1:5], 10, repl=TRUE) ) >d val group 1 1 B 2 2 E 3 3 B 4 4

Using key.opts in Ecdf/labcurve (Hmisc package)
I'm presumably missing something very obvious, but how does one use the key.opts argument in labcurve (via Ecdf)? In this example, I want the key to be big and have a blue background, but it isn't and doesn't. ch <- rnorm(1000, 200, 40) sex <- factor(sample(c('female','male'), 1000, TRUE)) Ecdf(~ch, group=sex, label.curves=list(keys=c("f",

Combine Values into a Vector or List
Hi all, I have the following x1<-paste("A", 1:6, sep = "") x2<- round(rgamma(6,2,1)) x3<-paste("B", 1:6, sep = "") x4<- round(rgamma(6,2,1)) data1 <- data.frame(x1,x2,x3,x4) I would like to get data2 <- c(A1=4, A2=1, A3=0,...) Is there any standard for such a case? Thank you very much in advance, Diego

Comparing proportions between groups
Hello there, I have two groups (men and women) and I know per group how many of them smoke or don't smoke (women 40 of 200; men 100 of 300). I would like to know how I can compare in R if men and women differ significantly in their smoking. However, because there are more men in the sample than women I cannot just compare the number of smokers and non-smokers in both groups, right?! (I would

I need to create new variables based on two numeric variables and one dichotomize conditional category variables.
I might have factored the gender. I'm not sure it would in any way be quicker. But might be to some extent easier to develop variations of. And is sort of what factors should be doing... # make dummy data gender <- c("Male", "Female", "Male", "Female") WC <- c(70,60,75,65) TG <- c(0.9, 1.1, 1.2, 1.0) myDf <- data.frame( gender, WC, TG ) #

Any package for deconvolution?
I want to run deconvolution of a time series by an impulse or point-spread function through Wiener filter, regularized filter, Lucy-Richardson method, or any other approaches. I searched the CRAN website and the mailing list archive, but could not find any package for such a deconvolution analysis. Does anybody know an existing R function for deconvolution? TIA, Gang
