Dear List, I have been using R to create an xyplot using the panel function within lattice libraries. This plot is based on the data supplied in R named 'Oats'. The graph represents oat yield by nitro level with an overlay of each variety of oats for each nitro level. I have three questions regarding this graph: 1) I cannot seem to specify the type of symbol used by the plot, even though

Dear R users, this is a follow up of this message http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/e6/help/09/05/13897.html I'm reproducing the core of it for convenience. > // > / data(Oats, package = "MEMSS") / > / tp1.oats <- xyplot(yield ~ nitro | Variety + Block, / > / data = Oats, / > / panel = function(x, y, subscripts, ...) { /

The following code produces a legend ("key") that mentions the unused levels of Block. library(MEMSS) xyplot(yield~nitro, subset=(Block=="I" | Block=="II"), data=Oats, group=Block, auto.key=T) and adding "drop.unused.levels=T" does not fix it. And in fact even the following does not solve the problem: xyplot(yield~nitro,

When we call a lattice function such as xyplot, to what extent does the "data" designation cause the function to look inside the "data" for variables? In the examples below, the "subset" argument understands that "Variety" is a variable in the data. But the "scales" argument does not understand that "nitro" is a variable in the data.

Dear R users, I have a question about the patterned variance-covariance structure for the random effects in linear mixed effect model. I am reading section 4.2.2 of "Mixed-Effects Models in S and S-Plus" by Jose Pinheiro and Douglas Bates. There is an example of defining a compound symmetry variance-covariance structure for the random effects in a split-plot experiment on varieties of

Dear all, I'm analysing a split-plot experiment, where there are sometimes one or two values missing. I realized that if the data is slightly unbalanced, the effect of the subplot-treatment will also appear and be tested against the mainplot-error term. I replicated this with the Oats dataset from Yates (1935), contained in the nlme package, where Variety is on mainplot, and nitro on

Dear R-help, Why can't lme cope with an incomplete whole plot when analysing a split-plot experiment? For example: R : Copyright 2006, The R Foundation for Statistical Computing Version 2.3.1 (2006-06-01) > library(nlme) > attach(Oats) > nitro <- ordered(nitro) > fit <- lme(yield ~ Variety*nitro, random=~1|Block/Variety) > anova(fit) numDF denDF F-value

Dear R-Community! The example "oats" in MASS (2nd edition, 10.3, p.309) is calculated for aov and lme without interaction term and the results are the same. But I have problems to reproduce the example aov with interaction in MASS (10.2, p.301) with lme. Here the script: library(MASS) library(nlme) options(contrasts = c("contr.treatment", "contr.poly")) # aov: Y ~

Took me a long time to create a reproducible bug, but I think I have succeeded. I suspect my test function has a bug, but I don't see anything wrong. Plus, the bug only shows up when selecting certain filenames. Nearest I can speculate,

Hello, can anybody tell me how to produce a plot like the one in http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/lme4/vignettes/Implementation.pdf on page 13, Figure 6?

hello, I'd like know how to do to extract data from a frame for example how can I do to extract only the data where variety=victory or variety=golden rain thanks. > Oats Block Variety nitro yield 1 I Victory 0.0 111 2 I Victory 0.2 130 3 I Victory 0.4 157 4 I Victory 0.6 174 5 I Golden Rain 0.0 117 6 I Golden Rain

I am trying to do Tukey HSD comparisons on a repeated measures expt. I found the following example on r-help and quoted approvingly elsewhere. It is broken. Can anyone please tell me how to get it to work? I am using R 2.4.1. > require(MASS) ## for oats data set > require(nlme) ## for lme() > require(multcomp) ## for multiple comparison stuff > Aov.mod <- aov(Y ~ N + V +

Dear all, I have a problem. I have m variables each of which has n observations. I want to calculate pairwise correlation among the m variables and store the values in a m x m matrix. It is extremely slow to use nested 'for' loops if m and n are large. Is there any efficient alternative to do this? Many thanks for your suggestions!! Bill

Hi use Rs, I have a csv file: "1989-90","1990-91" Barley,23,34 Oats,15,16 Which I want to turn into: year, Barley, Oats 1 "1989-90", 23, 15 2 "1990-91",34,16 Transpose doesn't quite do it, is there a standard way? Cheers, Geoff Russell

Hi all, I have a problem in that when I plot points that have a high degree of precision, some significant rounding seems to occur, resulting in uneccessary overlap of my points. Is there a way to specify the resolution or precision in plotting functions? Is there an underlying grid I have to modify somehow? Many Thanks, Jon -- Mares eat oats and does eat oats and little lambs eat ivy. A

Dear R community, I am trying to do a split-plot analysis as follows. I have a data set (?morf?) with plant data from 6 ?blocks? at different latitudes, each divided in 3 plots. The full-plot ?treatment? is ?soil type? and has three levels. Within each plot I have two levels of radiation, coded as ?SUN? and ?SHADE?. I have data for several response traits for 30 plants within each subplot,

Dear R-supporters, I have results of lme similar to those shown in Fig. 1.21, p.51 of Pinheiro/Bates. However, In my data set, one of the panels is missing, leading to an ugly frame shift of the following panels. How can I replace one of the panels by an empty one to restore the raster?
