Hello, Using the svyplot () function, I have plotted four graphs that are saved in four different .png files. I am looking for examples how to redraw the same four graphs within grid viewports so that they stay together on a page. The goal is to create one .png file that will include all four graphs (2 rows, 2 columns). Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Pradip Pradip K. Muhuri,

Hi Everyone, I am a new R user and trying to run R jobs in batch mode. Robert Muenchen (2009), in his book "R for SAS and SPSS Users", has suggested writing a small batch file like mR.bat as shown below: "C:\Program File\R\R-2.10.0\bin\Rterm.exe" --no-restore --no-save < %1 > %1.Rout 2>& 1 Could anyone tell me in which directory or subdirectory I should

Hello List, My goal is to create a 5 category variable (p1_st_data$ob_mrj_cat), based on the p1_st_data$obt_mrj_p variable, using the following code for 50 States and District of Columbia (N=51). p1_st_data$ob_mrj_cat <- cut (p1_st_data$obt_mrj_p, quantile (p1_st_data$obt_mrj_p, (0:5/5), include.lowest=TRUE)) The issue is that, for Utah, I am getting an <NA> instead of (42,48.7] in

Hello, Although my R code for the svymean () and svyquantile () functions works fine, I am stuck with the svyby () and make.formula () functions. I got the following error messages. - Error: object of type 'closure' is not subsettable # svyby () - Error in xx[[1]] : subscript out of bounds # make.formula () A reproducible example is appended below.

Hello List, My goal is to apply a user-defined function on several columns of a data frame. When testing the code on a reproducible example below, I get the following error message. > #now Write a new function using the above cut ()/quantile function to apply on different columns of the data frame > > CutQuintiles <- function(x) { + cut (test1$x,quantile (test1$x,

Hi List, My goal is to force R not to print in scientific notation in the sixth column (rel_diff - for the p-value) of my data frame (not a matrix). I have used the format.pval () and printCoefmat () functions on the data frame. The R script is appended below. This issue is that use of the format.pval () and printCoefmat () functions on the data frame gives me the desired results, but coerces

Hi Berend, I see you are one of the contributors to the rbecnhmark package. I am sorry that I am bothering you again. I have tried to run your code (slightly tweaked) involving the benchmark function, and I am getting the following error message. What am I doing wrong?

Hello, Here is something (file.copy) trivial but does not seem to work. I could not figure out what I am doing wrong. The R script below creates folders (fromFolder and toFolder) and finds the list of files (list.of.files) to be copied to the toFolder, which I have verified using the print () command. But, the issue is that the file.copy() command does not work. Both the R.script and the

Hello, The range() with complete.cases() removes NA's for the date variables that are read from a data frame. However, the issue is that the same function does not remove NA's for the other date variable that is created using the dplyr/mutate(). The console and the reproducible example are given below. Any advice how to resolve this issue would be appreciated. Thanks, Pradip Muhuri

Hello, The example data frame in the reproducible code below has 5 columns (1 column for id and 4 columns for dates), and there are 7 observations. I would like to insert the most recent date from those 4 date columns into a new column (oiddate) using the mutate() function in the dplyr package. I am getting correct results (NA in the new column) if a given row has all NA's in the four

Sorry for the lack of reproducible data, but this seems to be a problem inherent to my dataset and I can't figure out where the issue is. I have several data frames set up as a time series with identical POSIXct date formats. If I keep the original data in data frame format and merge them using base merge- everything is perfect and everyone is happy. If I transform the data frames to zoo
