Hi, I am very new to R and I've been trying to work through the R book to gain a better idea of the code (which is also completely new to me). Initially I imputed my data from a text file and that seemed to work ok, but I'm trying to examine linear relationships between gdist and gair, gdist and gsub, m6dist and m6air, etc. This didn't work and I think it might have something to do

Hi everyone, I determined the presence of three types parasites in a passerine bird over two years. I would like to create a bar chart that shows the proportion infected on the y and year/parasite on the x such that each type of parasite is grouped together (single label) and a bar for each year . This would show if there have been changes in the prevalence of a the parasite over two years.

Dear Rusers, My question is about "recode variables". First, i'd like to say something about the idea of recoding: My dataset have three variables:type,soiltem and airtem,which means grass type, soil temperature and air temperature. As we all known, the change of air temperature is greater than soil temperature,so the values in those two different temperaturemay represent different

Hi there I thought this would be of particular interest to people using 'optim' functions and perhaps people involved with R development. I've been beaten down by R trying to get it to perform an optimization on a mass-balance model. I've written the same program in excel, and using the 'solver' function, it comes up with an answer for my variables (p, ACT, which

Colleagues, I am fitting an Emax model using nls. The code is: START <- list(EMAX=INITEMAX, EFFECT=INITEFFECT, C50=INITC50) CONTROL <- list(maxiter=1000, warnOnly=T) #FORMULA <- as.formula(YVAR ~ EMAX - EFFECT * XVAR^GAMMA / (XVAR^GAMMA + C50^GAMMA)) ## alternate version of formula FORMULA <- as.formula(YVAR ~ EMAX - EFFECT / (1 + (C50/XVAR)^GAMMA)) FIT <-

Some day I may figure out how ggplot2 works. I am trying to plot 5 columns of data on a graph (similar to a simple matplot) =========================================================================== library(ggplot2) bmi <- structure(list(pct = 2:21, P10 = c(14.6, 14.5, 14.2, 13.9, 13.7, 13.7, 13.9, 14.2, 14.5, 14.8, 15.3, 15.9, 16.6, 17.2, 17.8, 18.1, 18.3, 18.4, 18.5, 18.6), P25 =

Hi everyone, I've been asked to run a number of Wilcoxon tests on some behavioral data (below is a sample). They want me to compare each trial to the first trial, considered the control trial. I know I can use brackets to index and select, for example, trial 1 vs. trial 4 (not exactly sure how to set that up either) but it would save me a ton of time if there was a way to do all the

Hi everyone, I'm looking to produce a side-by-side histogram of the number of trips taken by jays with a particular number of acorns after accounting for year (year "one" and year "two"). I know this involves indexing first then creating a histogram but I'm not sure how I'd do this. I want to explore the possibilities that jays are altering their strategies in

Dear all - We perform some measurements with a machine that needs to be recalibrated. The best calibration we get with polynomial regression. The data might look like follows: > true_y <- c(1:50)*.8 > # the real values > m_y <- c((1:21)*1.1, 21.1, 22.2, 23.3 ,c(25:50)*.9)/0.3-5.2 > # the measured data > x <- c(1:50) > # and the x-axes > > # Now I do the following:

Hello, I have a simple question for you: making: mylm<-lm(y~x) summary(mylm) I get the following results: ****************************************************** Coefficients: Estimate Std.

Estimada comunidad tengo un problema del que no encuentro datos que me ayuden mucho en la web. Estoy haciendo calculos por grupos con data,table. Tengo un archivo (zp.res) con tres columnas que clasifican los datos (sol, con, dia) y una columna de datos numericos (media), de la siguiente forma: sol con dia media 1: con 0 1 -22.6 2: con 0 1 -36.6 3: con 0 1 -35.6 y

I'd trying to subclass the "lm" class to produce a "mylm" class whose instances behave like lm objects (are accepted by methods like summary.lm) but have additional data or slots of my own design. For starters: setClass("mylm", "lm") produces the somewhat cryptic: Warning message: Old-style (``S3'') class "mylm" supplied as a

Dear R users, I seek for a more elegant manner to manipulate my data that that I produced so far. Data is in a data frame THC515.DATA -sample at the end of this mail- of 5 variables, a string and 4 continuous numeric variables. I need to get the mean of two variables "Q" and "T" at the levels of a third one "dP", individually for each level of "n". I

Hello list, I have a linear regression: mylm = lm(y~x-1) I've been reading old mail postings as well as the plotmath demo and I came up with a way to print an equation resulting from a linear regression: model = substitute(list("y"==slope%*%"x", R^2==rsq), list(slope=round(mylm$coefficients[[1]],2),rsq=round(summary(mylm)$adj.r.squared, 2))) I have four models and I

Hello, I am randomly generating values and then using an ANOVA table to find the mean square value. I would like to form a loop that extracts the mean square value from ANOVA in each iteration. Below is an example of what I am doing. a<-rnorm(10) b<-factor(c(1,1,2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5)) c<-factor(c(1,2,1,2,1,2,1,2,1,2)) mylm<-lm(a~b+c) anova(mylm) Since I would like to use a loop to

Hi All, I had posted a question on a similar topic, but I think it was not focused. I am posting a modification that I think better accomplishes this. I hope this is ok, and I apologize if it is not. :) I am looping through variables and running several regressions. I have reason to believe that the data is being duplicated because I have been monitoring the memory use on unix. How can I avoid

Hi, I wonder if someone has already figured out a way of making summary(mylm) # where mylm is an object of the class lm() to print the "(Intercept)" at the last line, rather than the first line of the output. I don't know about, say, biostatistics, but in economics the intercept is usually the least interesting of the parameters of a regression model. That's why, say, Stata

Hi, I have no experience with R and I'm finding the manuals a bit obtuse and written as if I already understood R. I'm trying to import a csv file from a floppy and it's not working. The code I'm using is read.table("F:\GEORGIA\species_richness\SR_use.csv", sep=",", header = TRUE, row.names = 1) I'm assuming that this command is case sensitive so
