Hi, First of all, thanks for the efforts of all the developers and contributors - I'm very new to R and at the moment am just using it to create some graphics, but it seems to be quite powerful. I've googled the archives and wasn't able to find anyhting that dealt with this problem, so would appreciate any suggestions/tips. In a pairs plot I'd like to plot a linear regression line

Hi First off, thanks to all the various R developers, your package is very impressive. I'm not sure what the protocols are for contributing, and I've not done this before, so please excuse nay obvious errors or oversights... Also I'm by no means an R,TeX/LaTeX, or typesetting expert, I have largely stumbled my way to this point. Objective: I'd like to get R postscript(...) to

The following paper may be of interest to some. The author is generous about sharing a recently revised version. <A HREF="http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=259648">http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=259648</A> [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I can successfully "check" a package with source under 2.5.1, including compiling source files and running examples with no errors or warnings. when I try with R2.6.2, I get make errors: making bayesmc.d from bayesmc.c make[3]:gcc-sjlj: Command not found etc. my gcc is version 3.4.2 I'm using Windows XP. Any thoughts? thanks! peter r ................................ Peter

Hi everyone, In the package POT, there is a function that computes the L-moments of a given sample (samlmu). However, to compute those L-moments, one needs to obtain the total number of combinations between two numbers, which, by the way, requires the use of a factorial. See, for example, Hosking (1990 , p. 113). How does the function "samlmu" in the package POT avoids overflows? I

Folks- I have developed a package which I am planning on posting to CRAN. I include examples for each of the 40 or so functions in the package. However, since the examples are non-trivial and the package is using MCMC simulation methods, it takes about 20 minutes to run the complete set of examples on a 2.8 Ghz windows PC. The R process reaches a high water mark of about 100 MB of memory as

Hi All I have the following setup Users ------- Machine A ----------- Machine B ----------- Machine C >From machine A to B: Ipsec VPN Allows 192.168.10.0/24 (Users) to connect to 192.168.20.0/24 (Network on machine B) >From machine B to C: Ipsen VPN Allows 196.44.33.118 to coccent to 192.168.241.65 (machine C) I want to rewrite 192.168.20.33 to 192.168.241.65 This can be done

Prof Nash, Prof Galanos Is it possible to use a generic code stub in front of packages that use optimx to improve optimx use or curtail it according to the requirements?

I have no solution. However I wonder why the mail archives at https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/ are not searchable by Google. That would perhaps be a solution otherwise, since you can restrict Google to search within just one site. (This applies to some other search engines too.) Since I am also interested in the possibility to search the archive I have just sent a question to

Hello, Q/ Is it possible to create a DBMS connection automatically on startup of R? (Making sure of course that the db server has been started...) I am running MySQL on Mac OS X 10.4.2 with R2.4.1. I have tried to write a function using the RMySQL commands (below) and place them in .First of .RProfile: drv <- dbDriver("MySQL") dbcon <- dbConnect(drv, {other parameters present in

Hi Marc, Thanks for the response. Apologies for the lack of detail... I have used 'boxwex', 'at' and ylim, to place things nicely, except I know have some spare room at the end of the plot, which I would like to get rid of.... Your suggestion to use 'add' per the example is one I had not thought of. Does any one know of a simpler approach, to use add I'm need to

Hi folks, I'm just learning how to use maps. As an initial foray, I'm mapping the states that have "duty to retreat" (blue) and "stand your ground" (red) self-defense standards. Here is my extremely naive script: dtr <- c('alabama', 'arizona', 'conneticut', 'delaware', 'dist of columbia' , 'hawaii',

Hi, Googling ''RSpec describe scope'' didn''t yield much, so apologies if this question has been dealt with. It seem well known that a ruby class is ''visible'' between describes, and if this is a problem then you should use some counter as prefix or suffix: ''class Item_001; ... end'' Is there any work underway, or sheduled release where

Hi folks, I have five imputed data sets and would like to apply the same recoding routines to each. I could do this sort of thing pretty easily in Stata using MIM, but I've decided to go cold turkey on other stats packages as a incentive for learning more about R. Most of the recoding is for nominal variables, like race, religion, urbanicity, and the like. So, for example, to recode race

I'm importing a lot of text tables of data (from Latent Gold) that includes hashes in some of the column names ("Cluster#1", "Cluster#2", etc.). Is there an easy way to strip the offending hashes out before pushing the text into a table or data frame? I thought I'd use gsub, e.g., but can't figure out how to read in a text file without reading it into a table or

Hi I have a default route to 192.168.1.1 as soon as I start shorewall the default route dissapear. What do I need to do to have it not disappear. Kind Regards My network setup /etc/network/interfaces: # The primary network interface auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.1.17 netmask 255.255.255.0 network 192.168.1.0 broadcast 192.168.1.255

Hi, Could any one point me to the projection, and parameters if necessary, that would show each country/continent with it's area accurately refelcted on the plot? E.g. aitoff vs. albers vs. bonne vs. cylequalearea vs. guyou - they don't all look the same to mee but some of the documentations suggests they are equal area? Of course this isn't my field, so I am largely guessing and am

To whom it may concern, I am trying to maximize a log-likelihood function using optim. This is a simple problem with only 18 parameters. To conserve memory, I am using sparse matrices (SLAM) for some of the data matrices used in the computation of the likelihood. However, optim appears to convert the sparse matrix back to regular data format. This causes me to run out of memory as R tries to

# I've tried to make this easy to paste into R, though it's probably so simple you won't need to. # I have some data (there are many more variables, but this is a reasonable approximation of it) # here's a fabricated data frame that is similar in form to mine: my.df <- data.frame(replicate(10, round(rnorm(100, mean=3.5, sd=1)))) var.list <- c("dv1",

Hey everyone, I don't have a question. Instead some helpful advice with things I've learned from trying to connect 'R' to databases using RODBC. ROBDC is a very handy tool that, once you have everything fixed up nicely, is a great way to have scripts run fairly autonomously, safe in the knowledge that data isn't accidentally messed up. But I was fairly ignorant
