Hi, I have a question about how to obtain the union of several data frame rows. I'm trying to create a common key for several tests composed of different items. Here is a small scale version of the problem. These are keys for 4 different tests, not all mutually exclusive: id q1 q2 q3 q4 q5 q6 1 A C 2 B D 3 A D B 4 C D B D I would like

Hi, I'm trying to make a png file of a histogram. I would like a white background in the final product but end up producing a gray one, despite setting what I think are the correct parameters. Suggestions for how to properly set a white background would be welcome. Thanks in advance, Scot # for non-lattice > par("bg"="white") > par("bg") [1]

Hi, I wanted to know how to compute the correlation ratio (eta) between two variables using R. Is there any function to compute the correlation ratio. Any help will be very much appreciated. Thanks, Suman [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

This patch enables PCI passthrough with stub domain. PCI passthrough with stub domain has failed in the past. The primary reason is that hypercalls from qemu in stub domain are rejected. This patch allows qemu in stub domain to call the hypercalls which is needed for PCI passthrough. For security, if target domain of hypercall is different from that of stub domain, it rejects hypercall. To use

I am a new user of R and would like a bit of advice. I wish to write a short program in R that I can call up when I want to run it. How do I go about storing and recalling the particular code that I write?

Scot, Thanks for the info. I will try your code out to verify the result, but before I do that, will your code (SAS and R) work with variable names that are longer than 8 characters long without truncating the variable name in R? Also, I wonder about using your method or the PROC EXPORT method with larger data sets. The data sets I will be working with for the most part will not be that large,

Hello all - I am sorry if this simple question is addressed in somewhere else. But, I couldn't find it. It's been for about a week using R. . . My problem is: Reading matrix data with "scan" does not seem to allow me to incorporate matrix labels (columns, and rows). If I use read.table, I can import the lables. But, the problem is, I don't know how I make this data as

Hi, I couldn't figure out how to use the functions from the ctest library. I'm using the r-base package that comes with debian potato. library("ctest") told me that no such package existed. I checked the CRAN, but no such package was availiable, instead I was told that it would be part of the standard installation. But functions from ctest like shapiro-wilk don't work. The

Scot, Thanks for the additional information. On further reflection... whether one uses SAS PROC EXPORT or uses a SAS LIBNAME yourfile XPORT 'yourpathname'; statement, an intermediate file is created in either case. As far as experience tells me now, PROC EXPORT is a far superior choice, because variable names do not get truncated and you only have to deal with reading in a simple text

Hi, I'm trying to read a file containing html markup (discussion board posts) and output the various parts of each post to an field in a record in an output file (date, author, title, body).

(Hi, I tried sending this to ess-bugs, but got it bounced back: "user unknown". Hope this isn't too off-topic for ess-help. Scot) I'm using Xemacs 21.4, ess 5.1.24, on Windows 98 SE, with John Fox's configuration files: (http://socserv.mcmaster.ca/jfox/Books/Companion/ESS/index.html) and am getting the end-of-loop-timeout warning message I've seen reported to

Hi, I'm trying to produce 6 graphs on a single page using code I've borrowed from an example by Paul Murrell: (http://www.stat.auckland.ac.nz/~paul/RGraphics/custombase-xmastree.R). It involves placing 6 horizontal barplots on one page and adding common labels. The problem is the first graph in my figure (the one in the (1,1) position) is smaller than the other 5. A toy example is

Hi: I am trying to run your SCHOOLS example as following and I get an error message stated that : Error: could not find function "bugs" Would you please help me since I would like to run some WINBUG programs from your R by reading external data and I am new to R? Do I missing some function? Should I install some extra files? Thanks a lot in advance for your help!! > schools

Hello list, I?ve been trying to get OpenBUGS running on my mac using the wine emulator. I can run Openbugs just fine by doing: wine ~/OpenBUGS312/OpenBUGS.exe In the terminal, so OpenBUGS works. When I try to run the schools example using rbugs(), the OpenBUGS process starts in wine, but it just sits there, no log, no script, no output of any sort. The rbugs () call makes the init,

Dear R-users, I am trying to use the following code to reproduce results from Prof. Gelman's book, but have the listed error for R2WinBUGS version (the openbugs version is good). I am using R-2.6.1 on windows XP, and all the R packages are most current ones. schools.bug can be found at http://www.stat.columbia.edu/~gelman/bugsR/runningbugs.html . Can anyone help me to figure out what's

Dear R users, I've found bugs.R : the functions for running WinBUGs from R that is writen by Dr. Andrew Gelman who is a professor from Columbia University. The bugs.R would be very useful for me, and I think many of you know it as well. I followed the instuctions on Dr. Gelman's web to install all of documents that bugs.R needs, but when I try to run the school example the web posted in
