Hello everyone, How can I specify in tcltk file browser the initial directory to "MyComputer" in Windows where Drives and Partition are accessible? And just a little question if anyone knows, is there a way to use the function choose.files under windows to select a directory? Thanks a lot for your help. Laetitia.

Hi, I have R installed under a Mandrake linux system and I don't have shell utilities any more under my R console such as completion when writing a file path, back and forth in the history, bindkeys... Moreover when I quit R by saving, no .Rhistory file is created while the .Rdata is. I don't get how this work, I thought it was based on the user unix shell but it does not seem. Any

In the previous versions of R (2.6.1), when a vector of NA was given to the functions 'sd' or 'var' with parameter na.rm = TRUE, it used to return NA. Now (2.7.1) it returns an ERROR : Example in 2.6.1: > sd(c(NA, NA, NA, NA), na.rm = TRUE) [1] NA Example in 2.7.1: > sd(c(NA, NA, NA, NA), na.rm = TRUE) Error in var(x, na.rm = na.rm) : paires d'éléments

Hi everyone, I want to write a function that modify directly variables passed as parameters (the equivalent in C language of *ptr/&ptr) so that I don't have to return a list and to reaffect all my variables. Is it possible to do so in R? Thanks a lot. Laetitia Marisa.

Hello, When I launch a script under windows it does not display sequentially my cat calls or maybe the console is not refreshed at every line of my script. For instance with that code cat("\n\n================== IMPORT DATA FROM FILE ===================\n\n") fileschosen <- choose.files(caption="Select gpr files", filters = matrix(c("genepix

Hi! Does anybody know a string function that would calculate how many characters two strings share? I.e. ("Hello World","Hello Peter") would be 7. Thanks. Laetitia

Dear List, I have been trying to extract associations from a matrix whereby individual locations are within a certain distance threshold from one another. I have been able to extract those individuals where there is 'no interaction' (i.e. where these individuals are not within a specified distance threshold from another individual) and give these individuals a unique Group ID containing

Hi, I've had a little problem for several weeks now. It is annoying and therefore I will ask for help now: When I write a script with several iterations, I make it write out a text file to save the data during the run. For example I write: if (i %% 25) write.table(output,"temporary_output.txt") Later on, when I read in this output and want to calculate things, R complains that

Hi R people! I am looking for some suggestions writing an if-else function. The idea is to characterize different plots containing counts of variables (here parasites). If a plot has a count equal or higher than 4 for any parasite the function should return a 1 else a 0. Later I can loop the function over all plots. Here I have a little subset of my data: VariablePAR Plot1

Help! Being a bit of a novice, please bear with me if this is a stupid question! I am trying to fit a saturated model to some count data that I have: model<-glm(COUNT~SP*LOC*COL*TIME*TREAT,poisson) but R keeps on crashing and coming up with (occasionally before crashing) an error that states: Algorithm did not converge in: (if(is.empty.model(mt)) glm.fit.null else glm.fit)(x = X, y = Y,

OK I have been trying to learn how to use this program and I cannot even import any data into it. I have downloaded all the manuals but they do not seem to help. Is there a book on R for dummies???

Dear R users, I am trying to fit a glm with a distribution free family, link = log and variance = constant*mu. I guess I have to use the quasi family but the choices of variance are restricted to constant or mu or mu^2..., I don't know the way to choose the variance that I need, i.e. constant*mu. If you have any ideas or advice, please tell me. Thanks, Laetitia Mestdagh Laetitia Mestdagh

I was trying to install ferret 0.9.2 on solaris (SunOS 5.8) which does not have a sys/dir.h nix_io.c:5:21: sys/dir.h: No such file or directory make: *** [nix_io.o] Error 1 I couldn''t find an obvious way around this... any suggestions?

Hi all, I am working with some social network analysis in R and ran into a problem I just cannot solve. Each observation in my data consists of a respondent, some characteristics and up to five friends. The problem is that all of these five friends might no show up later as a respondent (observation). Therefore I might not have characteristics on all the friends listed in the data and I want to

Hello World, I have a function that makes pairwise comparisons between two strings. I would like to apply this function to my data (which consists of columns with different strings) in the way that it compares the first with the second entry, and then the third with the fourth, and then the fifth with the sixth, and so on down each column... So (2x-1) and (2x) would be the different entries to be

Hello, colnames seems to be not optimized well for data.frame. It escapes processing for data.frame in if (is.data.frame(x) && do.NULL) return(names(x)) but only when do.NULL true. This makes huge difference when do.NULL false. Minimal edit to `colnames`: if (is.data.frame(x)) { nm <- names(x) if (do.NULL || !is.null(nm)) return(nm) else

I'm new to R (previously used SAS primarily) and I have a genetics data frame consisting of genotypes for each of 300+ subjects (ID1, ID2, ID3, ...) at 3000+ genetic locations (SNP1, SNP2, SNP3...). A small subset of the data is shown below: SNP_ID SNP1 SNP2 SNP3 SNP4 Maj_Allele C G C A Min_Allele T A T G ID1 CC GG CT AA ID2 CC GG CC AA ID3 CC GG nc AA

Hi, Can anybody show me how to extract all columns in my dataset that are polymorphic? Or phrased in another way I would like to delete all columns that have no more than one letter in it (that are monomorphic). Thank you.

Dear Wu Gong and Peter Ehlers, thank you very much for your help debugging my script. Now I have a general following up question: Is there a straightforward way to rearrange the following dataset so that all first letters of each column will be combined in one column, all the second letters in a second column, all the third ones in a third column and so on, resulting in 7 columns, i.e. for
