Sometimes I print out a package and read about it and there are sometimes nice examples that I would like to run myself. Is there a way to bring them into R from the package or are they only meant to be typed in manually ? If manual is the only way, that's fine. I was just checking whether there was a quicker way. Thanks. Mark

I think I did enough reading on my Own about startup ( part of the morning And most of this afternoon ) to not feel uncomfortable asking for confirmation of my understanding of this startup stuff. Obviously, the startup process is more complicated Than below but, for my R newbie purposes, It seems like I can think of the startup process as follows : Suppose my home directory =

I'm sorry to bother everyone with a stupid question but, when I am at an R prompt in Windows, is there a way to see what packages you already have installed from the R site so that you can just do library(name_of_package) and it will work. I've looked at help etc but I can't find a command like this. Maybe there isn't one which is fine.

I thought r-help let you attach asci files but I don't think it does now so below is a sample of my data set. Thanks again. 09:40:08.5238,67.00,33 09:40:09.1968,67.00,2 09:40:09.7945,67.00,2 09:40:09.7975,67.00,2 09:40:09.8318,66.99,-3 09:40:17.6335,66.95,3 09:41:09.3393,66.95,6 09:41:11.1482,66.95,-1 09:42:07.4552,66.90,-5 09:42:12.5823,66.85,-5 09:42:14.4329,66.80,-2

I have never worked with R before so I am sorry if this is a bad question but I've tried and tried ( all day ) and I can't figure this problem out. I have the code below and I included the data file as an attachment. The code works in term of reading in the data correctly but when the graph gets created, the xaxis is really strangely/incorrectly labelled. I have been trying to understand

I'm sorry to bother this list so much But I haven't programmed in A while and I'm struggling. I have a vector in R of 1's and -1's And I want to use a streak of size Y To predict that the same value will Be next. So, suppose Y = 3. Then, if there is a streak of three ones in a row, then I will predict that the next value is a 1. But, if there is a streak of 3 -1's in

Thanks a lot. setHook is Currently not in my knowledge set But it's great to save these Thing so I can look them up When I feel more comfortable. Just to add to that Stata versus R discussion : I believe, anyone who uses any other package than R, is probably missing out in the long run. It's truly unbelievable what has been done here. I feel like I fell asleep for 5 years ( by not using

I have been using the document written by John Fox titled Sn Introduction to ESS + XEmacs for Windows Users of R. It's a very nice document and I went through it carefully but I got an error when I finished it and launched XEmacs. The error is "cannot open load file : ess-site". So, I did more investigation and it seems like there is a folder Program

I just had a question for anyone who has done this. I am currently using R in a research environment but I was wondering if anyone has had experience using it in a production/real time environment where data is coming in quite quickly ( every second or so ) and things have to be calculated quickly and sent back out to some kind of front end.GUI environment Was this successful or difficult and

I have a vector x with #'s ( 1 or -1 in them ) in it and I want to "mark" a new vector with the sign of the value of the a streak of H where H = some number ( at the next spot in the vector ) So, say H was equal to 3 and I had a vector of [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] 1 -1 1 1 1 -1 1 1 -1 -1 then, I would want a function to

hello I am returning to some libraries that I had previously customised by amongst other things adding additional functions. I had simply typed these new functions into the file in library/R/thelibrary. These however do not seem to be loaded now as they previously were under older versions of R. What's changed and what do i need to do? Thanks Stephen

Hello I am trying to install the R RPM for Suse 10.0 on an x86_64 PC. However I am failing a dependency for "libpng12.so.0" straight away PC5-140:/home/rmgzshd # rpm -i R-base-2.5.0-2.1.x86_64.rpm error: Failed dependencies: libpng12.so.0(PNG12_0)(64bit) is needed by R-base-2.5.0-2.1.x86_64 I do seem to have this file PC5-140:/home/rmgzshd # whereis libpng12.so.0

I've done stuff like this before but it's been a while and I'm stuck. Suppose I have a matrix with one column x and another column y and both are numeric and let the row index of the matrix be i Starting at index i ( i would equal on the first iteration ) when the cumulative sum of x_i+1 - x_i is greater than W = some constant, I want to mark that spot in the row, call it i^* and

Hi, I'm just about to install the Precompiled Binary Distribution of R from CRAN for SuSE Linux 8.2: R-base-1.7.1-1.i386.rpm My system is SuSE Linux 8.2 Professional Edition on a Pentium 4: # uname -a Linux linux 2.4.20-4GB #1 Mon Mar 17 17:54:44 UTC 2003 i686 unknown unknown GNU/Linux 1) Problem: I've tried to install the above base rpm archive with the command: # rpm -i

Hi I hope this is going to the right place. I am trying to write a program which uses KernSmooth library to estimate mutual information between two time series at various different lags. At the moment it’s producing negative values, which is supposed to be impossible (something is fishy). I am summing across one row of the matrix to get p(value is in bin x) and summing across the columns to get

Hi I'm using R version 2.3.1 on Red Hat Enterprise Server 3. When I run a simple: plot(1:10,1:10) The plot comes out great, but the fonts are displayed wrongly: http://coxpress.sourceforge.net/test.jpg I realise this is probably not an R problem per se, but before I go messing about with my fonts, can someone tell me which fonts R (or X11) is trying to display, where they might be

I want R to read my Microsoft Access database or maybe even a Sybase database. I installed RODBC or at least thought I did. Then I issued the following command: library(RODBC) And got Error in lazyLoadDBfetch(key, datafile, compressed, envhook) : ReadItem: unknown type 241 In addition: Warning message: package 'RODBC' was built under R version 2.3.0 Error: package/namespace

I am involved in a study where, as in most of life, men demonstrate themselves to be recalcitrant. So while we have many probands and most of their mothers we only have about 50% of the trios being complete. I have been running tdt and trio.types. It appears as if it is ignoring the duos. Sometimes a duo can be informative. For instance Father ..missing Mother 1/2 Proband 1/1 This duo shows that

Hi r lovers! I 'd like to apply the cor() function to a matrix which have some missing values As a matter of fact and quite logically indeed it doesn't work Is there a trick to replace the missing value by the mean of each variable or by any other relevant figures ? Or should I apply a special derivate of the cor() function, (I don't have any idea if it exists and have some trouble to
