Folks: A minor (R 2.2.0) Windows package install annoyance, but I can't figure out how to fix it. If someone could tell me how or point me to the appropriate docs, I would appreciate it. I set my CRAN mirror in my Rprofile.site file. After startup, I get: > getOption('repos') CRAN "http:/cran.cnr.berkeley.edu/" > However, when I then go

Hello R-Masters, I have a list 's' with three elements, as shown below. I want to recode a.a, a.a2, and a.a3 to NA if the value in a.a is less than 3. I reivewed my Modern Applied Statistic Book, the online help and did some searching of R-help on the internet. I explored unlist and as.list.data.frame in an attempt to isolate the third element of the list s, but this was not helpful.

I have been wrestling with this function for quite a while, and am not making headway. 1) I want to apply a function to the following columns of a dataframe: myfunction. <- apply(ph5028[,c(83:107)],2,function(x) ... 2) Within each of the above columns there is a single numeric code, 1, 2 or 3 or an NA. 3) My goal is to determine the percent of time each person used a 2 code. So if a person

Hello, I am unable to update packages. I am running R version 2.8.1 (2008-12-22) under VISTA. When I start R I get the following error: Type 'demo()' for some demos, 'help()' for on-line help, or 'help.start()' for an HTML browser interface to help. Type 'q()' to quit R.

Hello, I was wondering if anyone has run across this problem in the past and might be able to suggest a solution. I did a review of the FAQ's link trying to find a topic that closely related to the experience I was having, however I didn't see anything that might help in diagnosing the problem. While invoking the options under the "package" menu I get the following errors:

I tried to install "segmented" from three different repositories but I keep getting the following message on R window: ... Please, advice where to find this package. Thank you in advance.

Hello R experts, The following problem outstrips my current programming knowledge. I have a dataframe with two fields that looks like the following: ID Contract 01 1 01 1 02 2 02 3 02 1 03 2 03 2 03 2 03 1 03 1 03 1 etc... I would like to end up with a dataframe with one row per ID where the value in the contract field would be the

Dear R Masters, I have searched high and low (the help archives and my various R reference material and help files) for a solution to what appears to me to be quite a simple problem. In the following syntax, variable n10 has three levels. I would like the symbols that appear in the graph for these three levels to be different colors. The best I have been able to do is to have the Key display

I have some questions and observations about these: Will these replace manually setting options(CRAN), which doesn't work in R-2.1.0? In R-2.1.0, setRepositories() looks to see if options("repos") contains a CRAN entry and will not override that CRAN entry even if the $R_HOME/etc/repositories file (which setRepositories reads from) contains a CRAN entry. Why is this? The user

Hello, I have spent considerable time trying to figure out that which I am about to describe. This included searching Help, consulting my various R books, and trail and (always) error. I have been assuming I would need to use a loop (looping over columns) but perhaps and apply function would do the trick. I have unsuccessfully tried both. A scaled down version of my situation is as follows:

I will be involved with an analysis based on a file that will be roughly 25 meg. Assuming I have enough memory, is their any limitations to using R on a file this large. Thank you, Gregory L.

Hello, In the Hmisc package, functions describe and summarize can explicitly take a weight variable. My question is can a weight variable be applied when using 'summary'? For example, using...summary(var1 ~ var2) I would like to weight the data by var 3 (same length). Is this possible? Thanks a lot. Greg Blevins The Market Solutions Group, Inc.
