I have a problem with expressions. I am trying to create a title where the parameter of interest is displayed as a Greek character. Which parameter is being considered is stored in a character variable. As an example, if I have param <- "alpha" and then do plot(0, 0, main = bquote(Parameter==.(param))) then in the title I get "Parameter = alpha", whereas I want the

I am investigating some approaches to reproducible research. I need in the end to produce .html or .doc or .docx. I have used hwriter in the past but have had some problems with verbatim output from R. Tables are also not particularly convenient. I am interested in R2HTML and R2wd in particular, and possibly odfWeave. Does anyone have sample documents using any of these approaches which

I have been struggling trying to write some code to produce all combinations subject to some restrictions. I thought someone might have some bright ideas. I have 11 values which fall into 5 groups. I want all combinations of 2,3, and 4 values where each value must be from a different group. The numbers in the groups are different. Here is a definition of the groups: groups <- list(gp1 =

I have a client running Microsoft SQL Server. I am interested in ways of accessing data from this server using R. I would welcome any information about how this can be done. I have a reasonable grasp of SQL and have experience with MySQL and RODBC but don't know anything much about Microsoft SQL Server.

I have been playing around with producing tables using xtable and the type = "html" argument when printing. For example, if xtbl is the output of a dataframe which has been run through xtable, using the command: print(xtbl, type = "html", html.table.attributes = "border = '1', align = 'center'") I would be interested to see other examples of

I have a client who uses Stata 11. Can anyone advise me on ways of transferring data from this version of Stata to R? Reading the documentation for read.dta in package foreign it seems it only allows for versions up to Stata 10. I don't know Stata at all but a bit of poking around on their website led me to believe Stata 11 couldn't write in Stata 10 format. However Stata 11 can

I am writing a package for a company for its internal use only. What is an appropriate license statement for the DESCRIPTION file? I would like a statement which reflects the private and proprietary nature of the package, giving copyright to the writer and the company. I also don't want to violate the licensing of R and the packages I am using (RODBC, ggplot2, zoo). David Scott --

I am looking for a method of dealing with the modified Bessel function K_\nu(x) for large \nu. The besselK function implementation of this allows for dealing with large values of x by allowing for exponential scaling, but there is no facility for dealing with large \nu. What would work for me would be an lbesselK function in the manner of lgamma which returned the log of K_\nu(x) for large

A naive question: what happened to the xlsReadWrite package? http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/xlsReadWrite/ It says that it was removed from the CRAN repository. Are there any plans for it be available again? Thanks, Andrew [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, I have a problem with the metaplot-function in rmeta. After plotting a Forest Plot with "metaplot", no y-axis is shown for normal plots anymore. Does someone know, why this is and how I can solve it? Thank you in advance!

Hi all, The Kruskal-Wallis test is a generalization of the two-sample Mann-Whitney test to *k* samples. That being the case, the Kruskal-Wallis test with *k*=2 should give an identical p-value to the Mann-Whitney test, should it not? x1<-c(1:5) x2<-c(6,8,9,11) a<-wilcox.test(x1,x2,paired=FALSE) b<-kruskal.test(list(x1,x2),paired=FALSE) a$p.value [1] 0.01587302 b$p.value [1]

Hi all, I'm trying to import Microsoft Access data into R. It looks like I'm supposed to use the ROBC package, and this works fine with old Access files (those with an .mdb extension). However, lovely Microsoft must constantly update their software. Modern Access files have an .ACCDB extension. I cannot seem to coerce R to import data from such a file. Any advice? I've been using

(emacs newb here) After having made some changes in an \items paragraph of \arguments the lines are no longer nicely wrapped. I was looking for a command to reindent/rewrap/reformat the whole \items paragraph but couldn't find anything. The only way, I found, was to go to the end of the first line, do 'c-j' (or RET) which wraps *this* line nicely, but now there is a hard line-break
