Hi all, Thanks for the help with my previous post. I have just two more questions for the minute. I think I said in a previous post that I like to use the terminal, i.e. run rterm.exe. On exiting the terminal, I am asked if I want to save the workspace. If I hit y (yes), the workspace is just saved as .rdata in my working directory, does anyone know how I can name it directly from the

Sorry in the previos replay I forgot monday' scale so weight should be: weight <- c(0.91,1,1,1,1,1.21,1.22) names(weight) <- c("mon","tue","wed","thu","fri","sat","sun") ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gabriela Cendoya" <gcendoya at balcarce.inta.gov.ar> To: "Robin Williams" <>

Dear all, I am having difficulties using the seemingly-simple function lag. I have a dataframe with several weather variables (maxitemp, windspeed, rainfall etc), and the response variable (admissions). The dataset is fairly large (1530 observations). I simply want to model the response against a lag of a couple of the explanatory variables, say maxitemp and rainfall. I would like to look at

I'm trying to fit a Cox proportional hazards model to some hospital admission data. About 25% of the patients have had at least one admission, and of these, 40% have had two admissions within the 12 month period of the study. Each patients has had one of 4 treatments, and one of the treatment groups has had no admissions for the period. I used:

Hello, I have a general help question that some of you might be able able to help. I would like to design a study (a two group comparison) based on reduction on events(say hospital admissions). In a previous study hospital admission rate of 140 admissions per 72 patients (over a 4 month period) has been observed. That is rate is about 1.9. In order to see the admission rate reduction of 50% over

Dear R-helpers, I’m writing for advice on whether I should use R or a different package or language. I’ve looked through the R-help archives, some manuals, and some other sites as well, and I haven’t done too well finding relevant info, hence my question here. I’m working with hierarchical data (in SPSS lingo). That is, for each case (person) I read in three types of (medical) record: 1.

I''m trying to get my routes to work properly. Here''s how I''m defining one of my routes: map.downloads '':category/downloads'', :controller => ''downloads'', :action => ''list_downloads_for_category'', :requirements => {:category => DownloadableFileCategory.category_regex} And here''s the method

Hi all, I have a large data.frame, 1530 observation with 6 columns. I want to merge a 7th column, a transformation of the response variable (hospital admissions), namely trans<-sqrt(copd$admissions+0.25) trans<-data.frame(trans) And now when I do copd2<-merge(copd,trans) (copd being my original data.frame), R either crashes or is taking an extremely long time to do the computation. I

Hi all, Firstly I appologise if this question has been answered previously, however searching of the archives and the internet generally has not yielded any results. I am looking in to the effects of summer weather conditions (temperature, humidity etc), on the incidences of a breathing disorder brought on through smoking (COPD). I am fairly new to R and completely new to the idea of

Dear R-listers, I am a relatively inexperienced R-user currently migrating from Stata. I am deeply frustrated by this data manipulation question: I know how I could do it in Stata, but I cannot make it work in R. I have a data frame of hospitalization data where each row represents an admission. I need to know when patients were first discharged, but the problem is that patients were sometimes

Dear R users - I have a list of patient identifiers and diagnoses from inpatient admissions. I would like to reorganize the list, presently in a long format to a wide format in reshape, but in the absence of a "time" element, I am uncertain how to do this - any help greatly appreciated. ID Dx A nausea A diabetes A kidney failure A heart attack A fever B fever B

Hi, while using package "segmented" (version 0.2-4) by Vita Muggeo to investigate a possible change point (around time = 222) in admissions for a specific medical condition I had the following error message: fit2.seg<-segmented(fit2, seg.Z=~time,psi=222) Error in segmented.lm(fit2, seg.Z = ~time, psi = 222) : (Some) estimated psi out of its range "fit2" is a simple

Hello, I have some problems with calling the map_data function in maps package. Not so long ago it was not a problem, but for some reasons in July this year it became unavailable. For instance, if I call the following code: m<-map_data(?world?) The R returns to me: Error: cannot find function ?map_data? Kind regards, Poltoradnev Maxim Head of products promotion division PJSC

Hello, I know this must be a very simple problem, but I can't work it out from the documentation that is available. I've got a list of data I would like to plot (the weights of a single neuron that was trained using the neural package). The problem I'm encountering is that this set of weights, are in the form of a list. > network$weigth[1] [[1]] [,1] [1,]

Dear R-friends, I have to simple questions. First I would like to exclude some columns from a dataframe and after I need select rows that satisfy some conditions. My data frame looks like Region Species Bodysize Weigth Age Africa Sp1 10.2 20 2 Africa Sp2 12.2 12 2 Africa Sp3 15.3 18 3 Africa Sp4 11.5 40 4 Brazil Sp1 10.2 40 3 Brazil Sp2 22.2 32 2 Brazil Sp3 12.3

I would like to impute missing data in a set of correlated variables (columns of a matrix). It looks like transcan() from Hmisc is roughly what I want. It says, "transcan automatically transforms continuous and categorical variables to have maximum correlation with the best linear combination of the other variables." And, "By default, transcan imputes NAs with "best
