Dear R-developers, the following may seem a weird question for R-devel – I try anyway, because it does seem to be related to usage of R and R's way of interacting with the hardware. When running R (2.4.0) on my new dual core Windows XP system (Intel Core 2 Duo E6600, Mainboard ASUS P5B, BeQuiet Power Unit), I observe various types of sounds (not related to fans) when running at full

Hello, I would like to know what it means, when the hier.part's output has a data frame of a negative independent contribution for variables (?IJ) and how this can be caused. Thank you very much. Yours sincerely M. Heuner

Dear R experts, I have defined a class "myclass" and would like the slots to be extractable not only by "@" but also by "$". I now try to write a method for "$" that simply executes the request object at slotname, whenever someone calls object$slotname for any object of class "myclass". I don't manage to find out how I can provide this

Dear R-helpers, I have a question regarding LU-decomposition with function lu in package Matrix. The following simple example confuses me: Why is as.matrix(elu$U) not an upper triangular matrix? u3 <- matrix(c(1,1,1,1,1,1,-1,1,0,0,0,0,0,-1,1,0,0,0,-1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,-1,1,0,0),5,6,byrow=T) elu <- expand(lu(Matrix(u3,sparse=F))) as.matrix(elu$U) I only have very limited experience with the

Dear developeRs, with R 2.4.1 (and also 2.4.0), the function str() fails on objects of class relimplmbooteval, if there are unused slots, which is very often the case. I am not sure whether this is a bug in str() or a correct behavior of str() that unmasks some sloppiness in my usage of S4 classes (that I am not aware of)? Reproducible example (package relaimpo needed): The program

Dear all, I am stuck with tracking down an error I get from R CMD check (Windows, R 2.4.0, same error for R 2.2.1): when running R CMD check over a modified version of package relaimpo, I get the following output in install.out: preparing package relaimpo for lazy loading Loading required package: MASS Loading required package: boot Error in parse(file, n, text, prompt) : syntax error at 2193:

Dear helpeRs, on my new machine - Windows 7 64Bit, R 2.15-2, I can no longer source files for which the path contains the o-Umlaut (?). As a historical burden, my username is Gr?mping and contains that Umlaut (I wouldn't have chosen it now, but decided to keep it for easy transfer). I have had the difficulty that I couldn't use the R CMD tools on files with Umlauts in the path (and

Full_Name: Ulrike Groemping Version: 2.9.0 (and older) OS: Windows Submission from: (NULL) (84.190.173.190) When using an older version of R, packages are not found although they are available for newer versions of R and do work when installed with the old version. For example, installing DoE.base on R 2.8.1 installs version 0.2, while CRAN is at version 0.4-1 currently. It would be nice if the

Dear R-helpers, I am puzzled by the following observation: On my home dual core Windows desktop computer, I am used to running two R sessions in parallel. These do very well in using the full CPU of the computer (half each) and don't seem to slow each other down. Today I have started some large computation effort in one of our university labs, and I intended to go for two R sessions per

Dear helpeRs, on my Windows 7 laptop, I have problems getting R CMD check to work. I believe it did work completely before, but I am not sure. Yesterday it almost worked, except for the tests: These were aborted because of a complaint that the temporary directory wasn't available. I played with windows environment variables for the temporary directory, but that didn't solve it.

I wonder if someone could explain the behavior of the anova() and lm() functions in the following situation: I have a standard 3x2 factorial design, factorA has 3 levels, factorB has 2 levels, they are fully crossed. I have a dependent variable DV. Of course I can do the following to get the usual anova table: > anova(lm(DV~factorA+factorB+factorA:factorB)) Analysis of Variance Table

Dear developeRs, I appreciate that boxplot now labels the axes with variable names per default. However, with argument "horizontal=TRUE" (which I always use), the default axis labels are mixed up, as can e.g. be seen with require(boot) boxplot(time ~ poison, poisons, horizontal=TRUE) The correct labels would be obtained by boxplot(time ~ poison, poisons, horizontal=TRUE,

Dear all, I am working on a function formula.design that should automatically generate reasonable lm formulae for a number of different designs. All works well as long as all variables used are columns of the design data frame. For one function, I would like to incorporate a dummy variable for center points that is not a column of the design. Without this function, it would work like this (at

Hi there, I wonder if anyone can help me. I'm trying to use bargraph.CI in the Sciplot package when there is a missing combination of the factor levels. Unfortunately the standard errors on the plot do not appear to be correct. Consider an analysis consisting of two factors A and B. When all factor level combinations are present all appears fine: library(sciplot) #all data

Dear R-help crowd, is it possible to specify a time delay for plotting the points in a curve? I would like to make the plotting process slow enough to show the development of the graph, and therefore I am looking either for the possibility within the plot function to specify a plotting speed or (if that doesn't exist) for a function like "pause" or "wait" that allows

Dear developeRs, I encounter the following problem: in the current version of my package FrF2, certain calls to a functioni do not work when package combinat is loaded, because function combn from combinat masks the function from utils that my package uses. I tried to solve this issue by importing function combn into the namespace of FrF2; I don't need to export it, I just want to use it

How to generate a new factor variable by two other factor variables? For example, if I have two factor variables, factorA and factorB, factorA factorB 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 1 Is there a simple way to generate a new 4-levels factor variable as factorC factorA factorB 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 2 0 1

Dear DevelopeRs, I've been struggling with the new regulations regarding modifications to the search path, regarding my Rcmdr plugin package RcmdrPlugin.DoE. John Fox made Rcmdr comply with the new policy by removing the environment RcmdrEnv from the search path. For the time being, he developed an option that allows users to put the environment from Rcmdr (RcmdrEnv) on the search path,

Dear all, I just noticed that the 0.9 update for FrF2 did not work out for Mac OS due to an error in an example that ran without error on all other platforms. I do not find any reason for this. In the past, umlauts or tab characters have sometimes been an issue, but I didn't find any of these. The function definition is FrF2(nruns = NULL, nfactors = NULL, factor.names = if

Hi, I have a lattice xyplot that contains panels according to FactorA, and curves for the 2 levels of Factor B within a panel. I try to add text in the panels of a lattice graph. I suppose I have to write a custom function (panel.txt). What I really would like is to adapt the text in the panel according to the levels of FactorA. In the manuals, I find examples for the strips using which.given
