Dear R List, I want to download kinship_1.2_S.tar.gz in http://mayoresearch.mayo.edu/mayo/research/biostat/splusfunctions.cfm to R. Once save this file to C:\, how I could load into R? I am working in Windows XP. Usually what I do is, I go to "packages" and then "install packages from local zip files". This procedure fails for .tar.gz files. Can someone help here please....

Hello All, Does anyone know of a package that performs constraint-based clusters? Ideally the package could perform "Time-Ordered Clustering", a technique applied in a recent journal article by Runger, Nelson, Harnish (using MS Excel). Quote, "in our specific implementation of constrained clustering, the clustering algorithm remains agglomerative and hierarchical, but observations

Hello, I am not having success in a simple task. Using the effects package, I would like to add reference lines at probability values of 0.1 – 0.6 on a plot of the effects. The plot command works, but following up with an abline command produces the message “plot .new has not been called yet”, and of course the reference lines were not added. Looking through past R help lists, there was a

Hello, I?m wondering if anyone can offer advice on the out-of-memory error I?m getting. I?m using R2.12.2 on Windows XP, Platform: i386-pc-mingw32/i386 (32-bit). I am using the quantreg package, trying to perform a quantile regression on a dataframe that has 11,254 rows and 5 columns. > object.size(subsetAudit.dat) 450832 bytes > str(subsetAudit.dat) 'data.frame': 11253 obs.

Dear all, I'm working with satellite images in R and plotting them via the code below. I was wondering whether coordinates (spatial["x"], spatial["y"]) are used as centre coordinates of the pixels in the GRID? In this script; spatial["x"] & spatial["y"] are the centre coordinates of the satellite image pixels. I'm asking this because some

Hello, I am looking for a sample size function for samples sizes, to test proportions that are not binomial proportions. The proportions represent a ratio of (final measure) / (baseline measure) on the same experimental unit. Searches using RSeek and such bring multiple hits for binomial proportions, but that doesn't seem to fit my situation. Perhaps there's some standard terminology

Hello, I'm not much of a programmer, and am trying to understand the workings of the function below called "RStatFctn" within this bootstrap procedure. RStatFctn is defined to have two arguments: "x", intended to be a data vector; and "d" intended to be an index (or so it looks to me). Later, "rnormdat" is created to be the data vector. However,

Hello, I'm trying to install the package metRology from SourceForge. I save the zip file metRology_0.9-06.tar.gz to my Windows 7 machine, and try to install the package using the RGUI: Packages > Install packages from local zip files > metRology_0.9-06.tar.gz. There's no .zip extension, but R seems to go to work on the installation with a couple warning messages and one error.

Hello I'm working with a large hydrological data set stored in a netCDF format. The file stores x and y coordinates in the UTM projected coordinate system, yet when I use image to graphically display the z variable, the image is distorted in the sense that it does not plot the map in the correct spatial organization. I'm wondering if I need to define the projection of the netCDF file

Dear All, I try to use Sweave to make a document. But when I use the Sweave() command on it and build a pdf with pdflatex (3.141592-1.40.3) my apostrophes are replaced by some gibberish (an 'a' with a hat on it, a capital A with a arc pointing upwards on it and a capital Y with two points on it). If I manually replace the apostrophes using the keyboard, I get a different looking

Hi, Recently, I made an R package that used the C++ library Boost.Thread (http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_54_0/doc/html/thread.html) for multithreading. Previously, I have posted a question at stackoverflow (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19651954/is-it-possible-to-build-an-r-package-which-use-rcpp-and-boost-thread-on-http), and I also asked at rcpp-devel

Hello, very basic question from a user who is baffled by the workings of computers in general When logging off R, a dialog box asked if I wanted to save my log, I chose yes. Then I noticed that the following message appeared in the Command Window Error in saveLog(currentLogFileName) : unused argument(s) ("C:/Documents and Settings/prewpj/My Documents/Data/Analyses/Healthcare/Hand Care

Hello, I’m trying to follow the syntax of a script from a journal website. In order to create a regression formula used later in the script, the regression matrix must have column names “X1”, “X2”, etc. I have tried to assign these column names to my matrix ScoutRSM.mat using a for loop, but I don’t know how to interpret the error message. Suggestions? Thanks, Paul

From this stage how can I turn it into a package that I can use in R? http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/nlme/index.html -- View this message in context:

I have a spatialpixelsdataframe containing bathymetry data. Is it possible to save this as something similar to the meuse.grid so it can be loaded without having to run the spatial interpolation each time the script is called? I don't see a straightforward method in the sp documentation.

Dear Lister, I understand I can put '#' to put comment line by line. But is there a way to put comment with multiple lines without having to put '#' on the every line? Thanks.
