Hi all, how can I divide two tables of the same dimension so that all names are preserved, ie do not become NA? I have "tab1" and "tab2", each having names in the first column. I want "tab3" with the same names and values "tab1/tab2". Thanks, Serguei

I am just starting with R and have the following problem: given a matrix of ones and zeroes, say mdim=4 m<-matrix(round(runif(mdim^mdim)),mdim,mdim) how to construct the matrix of those rows of m, whose elements sum to 2. Contrary to the random matrix above, the actual matrix always has at least one such row. Serguei Kaniovski

Hi all, 1. How to construct a date from three variables year, month, and day, where all three are integers? 2. I have a dataframe by date and sector. I would like to add-up all entries for all variable with identical date and sector, replacing the original entries, i.e. emulate the STATA command "collapse (sum) var1 var2 var3, by(date sector)". Thank you, Serguei Kaniovski

Hi, I have a more complex example, but the problem boils down to this FOR-loop not filling in the res-matrix run_rows<-seq(0,1,0.05) run_cols<-seq(0.3,0.6,0.05) res<-matrix(NA,length(run_rows),length(run_cols)) for(i in run_rows) { for(j in run_cols) { res[i,j]=i+j #niether the above, nor res[[i,j]]=i+j work, why? } } Thank you, Serguei

Given an x-vector with, say, 3 elements, I would like to compute the following vector of permutated products (1-x1)*(1-x2)*(1-x3) (1-x1)*(1-x2)*x3 (1-x1)*x2*(1-x3) x1*(1-x2)*(1-x3) (1-x1)*x2*x3 x1*(1-x2)*x3 x1*x2*(1-x3) x1*x2*x3 Now, I already have the correctly sorted matrix of permutations! So, the input looks something like: #input x<-c(0.3,0.1,0.2) Nx<-length(x) Ncomb<-2^Nx

Hi, I would like to get the coefficient of polynomial expansion. For example, (1+ x)^2 = 1 + 2x + x^2, and the coefficients are 1, 2 and 1. (1 + x + x^2)^3 = 1 + 3*x + 6*x^2 + 7*x^3 + 6*x^4 + 3*x^5 + x^6, and the coefficients are 1, 3, 6, 7, 6, 3, and 1. I know that we can use polynom library. Is there any other way to do it without loading a library. Thanks a lot for your help. Peter

I've a vector of pairwise correlations in the order low-index element precedes the high-index element, say: corr(1,2)=0.1, corr(1,3)=0.2, corr(2,3)=0.3, corr(3,4)=0.4 How can I construct the corresponding correlation matrix? I tried using the "combn"-function in "combinat" package: library(combinat) combn(c(0.1,0.2,0.3,0.4),2) , but to no avail... Thank you for your

I'm having difficulty figuring out how to implement the following set of constraints in Quadprog: 1). x1+x2+x3+x4=a1 2). x1+x2+x5+x6=a2 3). x1+x3+x5+x7=a3 4). x1+x2=b1 5). x1+x3=b2 6). x1+x5=b3 for the problem: MIN (x1-c1)2+(x2-c2)2+...+(x8-c8)2. As far a I understand, "solve.QP(Dmat, dvec, Amat, bvec, meq=0, factorized=FALSE)" reads contraints using an element-by-element

Hi, I would like to know whether there exist algorithms to compute the coefficients or, at least, the degree of the minimal polynomial of a square matrix A (over the field of complex numbers)? I don't know whether this would require symbolic computation. If not, has any of the algorithms been implemented in R? Thanks very much, Ravi. P.S. Just for the sake of completeness, a

Any better (more efficient, built-in) ideas for computing coef[1]+coef[2]*x+coef[3]*x^2+ ... than polynom <- function(coef,x) { n <- length(coef) sum(coef*apply(matrix(c(rep(x,n),seq(0,n-1)),ncol=2),1,function(z)z[1]^z[2])) } ?

Awaiting some suggestion. Was my question not very understandable? Please let me know how can I offer more elaborate clarification. Additionally, I would like to solve the determinant of "p1" for the values of "z" (I am working with some multivariate time series modelling). When I use det() function, it am getting error that, that function is not for objects with class

Hello All First - a warning. I'm not very R or programming savvy. I am trying to do something without much luck, and have scoured help-pages, but nothing has come up. Here it is: I have a matrix (m) of approx 40,000 rows and 3 columns, filled with numbers. I would like to convert the contents of this matrix into another matrix (m_p), where the numbers of (m) have been coerced into a

Hey all, I'm performing polynomial regression. I'm simulating x values using runif() and y values using a deterministic function of x and rnorm(). When I perform polynomial regression like this: fit_poly <- lm(y ~ poly(x,11,raw = TRUE)) I get some NA coefficients. I think this is due to the high correlation between say x and x^2 if x is distributed uniformly on the unit interval

Dear R people: Is there a way to perform simple polynomial multiplication; that is, something like (x - 3) * (x + 3) = x^2 - 9, please? I looked in poly and polyroot and expression. There used to be a package that had this, maybe? thanks, Erin -- Erin Hodgess Associate Professor Department of Computer and Mathematical Sciences University of Houston - Downtown mailto: erinm.hodgess at

Hi there, Does anyone know how I solve for x from a given y in a polynomial function? Here's some example code: ##example file a<-1:10 b<-c(1,2,2.5,3,3.5,4,6,7,7.5,8) po.lm<-lm(a~b+I(b^2)+I(b^3)+I(b^4)); summary(po.lm) (please ignore that the model is severely overfit- that's not the point). Let's say I want to solve for the value b where a = 5.5. Any thoughts? I did

Full_Name: Tamas K Papp Version: 2.4.0 OS: linux Submission from: (NULL) (140.180.166.160) I was using the lines.polynomial method for plotting piecewise polynomials (parts of splines). I needed a feature to limit the range of plotting using a parameter given to the function (as opposed to par("usr")). I think that the following changes would be a nice addition: lines.polynomial

How can ordinary polynomial coefficients be calculated from an orthogonal polynomial fit? I'm trying to do something like find a,b,c,d from lm(billions ~ a+b*decade+c*decade^2+d*decade^3) but that gives: "Error in eval(expr, envir, enclos) : Object "a" not found" > decade <- c(1950, 1960, 1970, 1980, 1990) > billions <- c(3.5, 5, 7.5, 13, 40) > #

Hi list, This was asked a couple of years ago but I can't find a resolution. Is there any way to get the coefficients from one of the local polynomial fits in locfit. I realize that locfit only constructs polynomials at a handful of intelligently selected points and uses interpolation to predict any other points. I would like to know the terms of the polynomials at these points. It seems

Hi, I want find all roots for the following polynomial : a <- c(-0.07, 0.17); b <- c(1, -4); cc <- matrix(c(0.24, 0.00, -0.08, -0.31), 2); d <- matrix(c(0, 0, -0.13, -0.37), 2); e <- matrix(c(0.2, 0, -0.06, -0.34), 2) A1 <- diag(2) + a %*% t(b) + cc; A2 <- -cc + d; A3 <- -d + e; A4 <- -e fn <- function(z) { y <- diag(2) - A1*z - A2*z^2 - A3*z^3 - A4*z^4
