Dear R helpers I have a data frame as given below df = data.frame(A = c(776,827,836,995,855,1026,1203,1363,965,1195),                        B = c(806,953,1049,1056,1243,764,1148,1162,948,1154),                        C = c(959,1155,1193,1163,863,1070,1087,877,1132,944),                        D = c(906,760,978,1170,1009,883,1007,960,828,113)) # Actually the real data has number of vectors and

Dear R - help, I am working on the Credit scorecard model. I am using the Logistic regression to arrive at the regression coefficients model. I want to use the Hosmer - Lemeshow test . In order to understand the use of R - language, I had referred the following URL       http://www.stat.sc.edu/~hitchcock/diseaseoutbreakRexample704.txt The related data 'diseaseoutbreak' is available

Greetings R-ians: I know what doesn?t work but I don?t know why, nor how to remedy things. I have a character string containing "." which I want to replace with " " gsub(".", " ", file.label) replaces the every character with a blank. However gsub(".xls", " ", file.label) replaces ".xls" with a blank as expected. It appears

Greetings, R-ians: I would like to know which version or R was used to create a given package. I think I remember seeing that topic discussed recently but cannot find it among my notes. Can anyone tell me how to determine which version of R created a package? Thanks. Charles Annis, P.E. <mailto:Charles.Annis@StatisticalEngineering.com> Charles.Annis@StatisticalEngineering.com

R-ians: After some effort I coerced my code to do what I want but my syntax is a kludge. Suggestions on more elegant syntax? par <- NIM.results$par do.call("Draw.NIM.POD.curve", list(par[1], par[2], par[3], par[4], par[5], a.hat.decision, .... et cetera ... It seems that I should be able to avoid defining the variable "par" and then specifying each of its elements,

Greetings R-ians: Searching the Searchable Mail Archives I discovered that ctrl L will clear the Rgui screen, which is what I'd like to do from a print (or some similar) statement. Is there a mechanism to use the ctrl L clear-screen sequence in a script, or print statement? Thanks for your counsel. Charles Annis, P.E.

Greetings, R-ians: I'm using R 2.3.1 on WindowsXP. I need to find the name of a file at the end of a sting that contains the path + file, with the problematic "\\" as separators. The string looks something like this: "C:\\Documents and Settings\\myName\\My Documents\\R Projects\\Project1\\file.name.csv" What I want is "file.name.csv" Currently I use the

Dear R Helpers: I am trying to annotate a plot. The following code snippet works, but it is kind of a kludge since it adds the partial derivative symbols after creating the plotmath frac(). Is there a more elegant way to write a partial derivative? dev.off() plot(NA, xlim=c(-3,3), ylim=c(0,1.6), xlab="", ylab="", tck=-0.015) text(1.6, 1, expression(paste("slope =

Dear R-ians: I'm running R2.9.2 on a 6 year old Windows XP DELL with 2 Gig RAM and a 3MHz Pentium 4 chip. I've written a package using the User Menus Under Windows commands (winMenuAdd, etc). It works very well. I have 6 test cases and running any one of them requires many selections form the menus and some keyboard entry, and it takes me hours to exercise them all to see

Greetings R-wizards: For historical reasons I have filenames with the character "?" and have successfully used "\u00e2" in its place, with the hoped-for result on all my on-screen plots. However since R2.7.0 I have trouble with savePlot() when the file name includes that character as it does in this example: savePlot(paste("diagnostic ? vs a ", file.label,

Greetings, Amigos: I have been trying without success to convert a character string, > repeated.measures.columns [1] "3,6,10" into c(3,6,10) for subsequent use. as.numeric(repeated.measures.columns) doesn't work (likely because of the commas) [1] NA Warning message: NAs introduced by coercion I've tried many things including strsplit(repeated.measures.columns, split =

Greetings: I'm running R2.6.2 on a WinXP DELL box with 2 gig RAM. I have created a new glm link function to be used with family = binomial. The function works (although any suggested improvements would be welcome), logit.FC <- function(POD.floor = 0, POD.ceiling =1) { if (POD.floor < 0 | POD.floor > 1) stop ("POD.floor must be between zero and one.") if

I?ve been using this routine for several years. I?m sorry, I don?t remember where I got it. It works as it should, viz. it blanks the R console. But it requires package rcom and now that requires rscproxy. cls <- function () { require(rcom) wsh <- comCreateObject("Wscript.Shell") comInvoke(wsh, "SendKeys", "\f") invisible(wsh) } > cls()

I'm looking for a book for someone completely ignorant of statistics who wishes to learn both statistics and R. I've found three possibilities, one by Verzani ("Using R for Introductory Statistics"), one by Crawley ("Statistics: An Introduction using R"), and one by Dalgaard ("Introductory Statistics with R"). Do these books have different emphases,

Greetings: This should be easy but it isn't. I have a home-brew package that works fine, with compiled html help pages, all 150 of them. I want to make a similar package but not from scratch since only a half-dozen routines are changed. So I created a new directory, copied the old package into it and changed the name to newSTUFF. I changed the names of all help pages too, as weill

Dear R-helpers: I am doing some exploratory programming and am considering a routine that has several other routines defined within it, so that I can avoid a large and messy global re-programming to avoid naming conflicts. My question is this: Because it is interpreted, does R have to re-build these internal routines every time the new routine is called? I'm not overly worried right now

I have installed Microsoft Vista Release Candidate 1, and R-2.4.0, on a 4 year old DELL box with a 2.26 GHz P4 and 1 gig. It was a clean install ? R is the only non-MS program running. I cannot install packages from CRAN, nor from local zipped files. (I have R-2.4.0 installed on a Windows XP machine and have had no problems so the difficulty seems to be Vista not R, however they aren't
