Dear R help reader, I'm not an expert in R and are lerning a lot by reading the help digest, which is sometimes difficult because the huge amount of data posted. I have posted some questions before, and are impressed how quick I got a solution for my problem. Sometimes with quite different suggestions. I was always wondering if my questions didn't come up before. On the other site,

On my previous message I gave incorrect URL's for the configuration output. They should be www.phineas.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/config.log and www.phineas.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/config.out Also this technique appears to work with Netscape on Solaris, but not IE on Windows. If this is not a sensible way to post diagnostic output let me know and I will post them in a different way. Phineas Campbell

Hello R users, I am a fairly new R user, however, one of the problems I am having is the use of applying if-, and-, then-, else- statements in R against datasets & dataframe. Rtips mentions it, but without simple examples I am not quite sure what my syntax should look like. I am particularly interested in syntax that can be used with the transform function. for example if foo[,1] ==

I've downloaded gcc 2.95, and installed R-1.7.0 It appears to config properly, the config.out is at the following URL: http://www.phineas.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/config.log Running make does not appear to work the errors are summarized: bash: ar: command not found *** Error code 127 make: Fatal error Command failed for target 'libappl.a' *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed

I think I've said it before, but I think such a book ought to coauthor Paul Johnson, whether or not he does any work beyond the Rtips web pages. A few of the tips may need a bit of

I'm trying to install R-1.6.2 on a Sparc machine running Solaris 5.9. I download and unpack R, run ./Configure from the R directory. Configure fails.The last line on the Configure script prints is 'Checking for Fortran 77 name-mangling scheme', This output and the config.log files are available at: http://www.phineas.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/config.log and

I am new to R. I want to graph group data using a "Traditional Bar Chart with Standard Error Bar", like the kind shown here: http://samiam.colorado.edu/~mcclella/ftep/twoGroups/twoGroupGraphs.html Is there a simple way to do this? So far, I have only figured out how to plot the bars using barplot. testdata <- scan(, list(group=0,xbar=0,se=0)) 400 0.36038 0.02154 200 0.35927

Hi, Can you tell me if there are an R package or code for STAR model estimation and test misspecification. If no, how i could do this. Thanks in advance Best regards AJMI Noomen Phd student TUNISIA --------------------------------- [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I'm creating a package for my own use that uses some S4 classes but no methods. I have a file called NAMESPACE it contains the line: exportClasses("foo") and at the top of the R file I have setClass("foo", representation(x="numeric") and the line: .onLoad<-function(libname,pkgname) When I run R CMD check I get Syntax error in the only R file. If I

Dear R People: Please excuse the off topic question, but I know that I'll get a good answer here. If a single author is writing a journal article, should she use "We performed a test" or "I performed a test", please? I had learned to use "we" without regard to the number of authors. Is that true, please? Thanks for the off topic help. Sincerely, Erin

I am trying to return the p value for a stat from the ECDF. That is the index of the first occurrence, on an ordered vector, of a value either greater than or equal to a given value. Ideally I would not have to order the vector beforehand. Currently I use: PValue<-function(stat, ECDF){ ###Get the length of the ECFD L<-length(ECDF) ###Loop through the ECDF until the p value is

I'm trying to find a good open source software to do sales forecasting using Holt Winters and Box Jenkins time series algorithm. Somebody pointed me that R is the best open source available for statistical computing. Are there functions to do Holt Winters and Box Jenkins time series prediction in R? If there is none, can some one point me a good GNU/freeware to do the sales forecasting using

Dear R People: I have finally seen the error of my ways and have decided to use ESS for R and S + stuff. However, I have a question right from the beginning. I'm somewhat confused by the installation instructions. Do I install XEMACS or ESS first, please? Windows XP R Version 2.0.1 (S + 6.2) Thanks so much!

Dear list, I would like to produce a matrix of plots, where par() is reset after each plot (see below [simplified] example). When I use layout() to do so, I seem to also reset the layout. I have not been able to figure out how to prevent this from happening. Any help is greatly appreciated!
