Dear R helpers, I am trying to read a CSV file in R called EUROPE (originally an Excel file which I have saved as a CSV file) using the command EUROPEDATA <- read.csv("EUROPE.csv") EUROPE.csv is basically a matrix of dimension 440*44, and has a line of headers, i.e. each column has a name. Using read.csv I can't load the data into R properly. Although the first 20 columns or

Hello, I am looking for a code in R for the variance ratio test statistic (the Lo and Mackinlay version or any other versions). Does anybody have such a code they can share or know a library in which I can find this function? Basically I have a number of time series which I need to check for persistence. One other test I can use is the runs test in the tseries package. Any help will be greatly

Hello, I have just recently started using R and was wondering whether anybody had a code written for White's heteroscedasticity correction for standard errors. Also, can anybody share a code for the GARCH(1,1) and GARCH-in-mean models for modelling regression residuals? Thanks a lot in advance, Spyros --------------------------------- [[alternative HTML version

Hello everybody, I've got a matrix called EUROPEDATA and I want to calculate the adf test statistic (part of the tseries package) on a rolling basis for window my.win on each column; i.e. each column of EUROPEDATA represents a particular variable; for the first column I calculate the adf test statistic for window my.win = 60 for example, roll forward one observation, calculate the adf

Hi, Apologies for the long mail. I have a data.frame with columns of price/mcap data for a portfolio of stocks, and the date. To get the total value of the portfolio on a daily basis, I calculate rowSums of the data.frame. > set.seed(1) > ab <- matrix(round(runif(100)*100),nrow=20,ncol=5) > ab[1:5,4:5] <- NA > ab[6:10,5] <- NA > ac <- as.data.frame(ifelse(ab <=

Hi, I would like to know if anyone has any idea of how to run an OLS with constraints? I need to contraint a coefficient estimate in the model equal to 1, and I am not sure how to include it into the OLS estimation... I was hoping to find something like "cnsreg" in STATA.. thank you Soyoko ______________________________________ Ms. Soyoko Umeno Graduate Research Assitant for the

Hello all, I have a DL360 G4 1U server that does a wonderfull job with dovecot horde, Xmail and OpenLDAP for a company and serving about 40 acouunts. The machine is wonderful.

Hi, A quick beginner's question. I have two time series, A with daily data, and another B with data at varying frequencies, but mostly annual. Both the series are sorted ascending. I need to merge these two series together in the following way: For any entry of A, the lookup should match with B until we find an entry of B that's larger than A's. For all A[i], i = 1,...,N and B[j],

OK, So what you people say is : 1. Run "ntpdate" during startup only once 2. After that, keep time with ntpd Right ? Regards, spyros ---- "I merely function as a channel that filters music through the chaos of noise" - Vangelis

Hello all, I had a quick look at the horde site and noticed that horde is being advertised as, let's say, "smartphone friendly". Does anyone know if the newest horde version can "talk" to? smart phones in regards to e-mails ? In other words, can a user owning a smartphone get his/her e-mails on it apart from the webpage ?

Hi, I have a history dataset, a matrix with about 1590 obs, and 242 cols, and I need to update this matrix with an 'update' matrix that has about 30 rows, and roughly similar number of columns as the history ds (but not necessarily equal). The update dataset is read from an Excel ODBC connection. When I try and merge these datasets, I get counter-intuitive results. library(RODBC) chn

Dear all, I new to r and I would like your help. I want to explore the patterns (unimodal, monotonically increased/decreased) of species richness~altitude using GAM in R.

Hello all, OK, I would really appreciate your help on this. I managed to do a pretty straight-forward and flawless migration on dovecot from one domain to another. However, I have this nagging problem with most of the thunderbird MTAs. When I try to delete some "test" messages I sent to make sure that everything works, it comes back with the following message on the bottom of the

The partial R-square (or coefficient of partial determination, or squared partial correlation coefficients) measures the marginal contribution of one explanatory variable when all others are already included in multiple linear regression model.

Hi guys, Having a weird issue with a Dom0. When we were running 2.6.18.8 kernel the server would lock up every 2 weeks for no reason. Its been a difficult one to resolve as there are no errors. We have now upgraded to 2.6.32.13 and the lock ups are more often. For example today it crashed in the morning, then it was rebooted and it crashed again about 5 hours later, no logs. The

Hello kind people, OK, today is a bad day for me. A user from a clients' site called early in the morning to inform me that she lost an entire folder on thunderbird with (naturally) important stuff in it. I am trying to find the lost folder, but there is nowhere to be found. Any ideas would greatly appreciated. Regards, Spyros "dovecot -n" :
