Core developers, I couldn't find any simple way to send a vector of colors to apply to each terminal in plot.dendrogram() or plot.hclust()---I asked R-help about it a few weeks ago and didn't get any response---so I hacked that functionality into the plot.dendrgram code (see below for hacked function plus examples).... Is there any chance this functionality could be added to the

Hi, currently the "label" and "edgetext" attributes of a dendrogram are coerced to character before they are added to a plot with `text'. Is there a specific reason to do so (expect for the determination of the size of the character string to be plotted)? Otherwise one could plot the attributes directly via diff dendrogram.R /usr/src/R/src/library/stats/R/dendrogram.R

Hello, this might be little off-topic, but still... I have not found any official web forum for R users. Did I look good? If not, I'm sorry and shame on me! :-) Such forums are very probably the most common way to share information about all sorts of problems, to ask and get answer. See http://forums.opensuse.org/ as an example. Admins, developers, users, do You think to have such forum

dear R experts: I have an academic question that borders on asking for consulting help, so I hope I am not too imposing. If I am, please ignore me. My data set has 100MB data set of daily stock returns. I want to compute rolling (recursive?) betas---either bivariate or multivariate---with respect to some other data time series. Many of these regressions are "take away the first

Hi everyone! #I need a loop or a function that creates a X2 variable that is X1 without the extreme values (or X1 winsorized) by industry and year. #My reproducible example: firm<-sort(rep(1:1000,10),decreasing=F) year<-rep(1998:2007,1000) industry<-rep(c(rep(1,10),rep(2,10),rep(3,10),rep(4,10),rep(5,10),rep(6,10),rep(7,10),rep(8,10),rep(9,10), rep(10,10)),1000) X1<-rnorm(10000)

Hello, I'm seeking ideas on how to remove outliers from a non-normal distribution predictor variable. We wish to reset points deemed outliers to a truncated value that is less extreme. (I've seen many posts requesting outlier removal systems. It seems like most of the replies center around "why do you want to remove them", "you shouldn't remove them", "it

*Hi, I want to know how can I configure R in a Ubuntu to be a server. I am planning to use R in a Windows machine with Tinn-R, but I want R running at an Ubuntu Lucid machine.

Dear useRs, I have a list, each entry of which is a matrix of constant dimensions. Is there a good way (i.e., not using a for loop) to apply a mean to each matrix entry *across list entries*? Example: foo <- list(rbind(c(1,2,3),c(4,5,6)),rbind(c(7,8,9),c(10,11,12))) some.sort.of.apply(foo,FUN=mean) I'm looking for a componentwise mean across the two entries of foo, i.e., the

hi i''m using htb + u32 filters, and i was wondering if there is something one can optimize at this stage. i have a lot of filters (~ 50.000 / interface, and there are two interfaces), and around 4500 classes / interface. the traffic going through this machine is something around 210-230mbit/s at 50kpps. as you can imagine, the load is pretty high. in fact (as it''s a dual xeon at

Hello, It seems that the plot function for dendrograms does not draw labels when they are too long. > hc <- hclust(dist(USArrests), "ave") > dend1 <- as.dendrogram(hc) > dend2 <- cut(dend1, h=70) > dd <- dend2$lower[[1]] > plot(dd) # first label is drawn > attr(dd[[1]], "label") <- "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" > plot(dd) # first label is

Hello everybody, after searching around for quite some time, I haven't been able to find a package that provides a function to compute the Windorized mean and variance. Also I haven't found a function that computes the trimmed variance. Is there any such package around? thanks, Roberto

I am creating a Slovak translation of an interactive website ( http://mazamascience.com/OilExport/index_sk.html ) and am running into problems with R's lack of support for the caron found in the following letters: Č/č, Š/š and Ž/ž. I am using R 2.6.1 running on a recent version of CentOS. Any information about whether these characters are supported or any possible workarounds would be

I recently upgraded to FC6, well, I actually did a clean reinstall. Anyway I did a yum install wine as root and it went through with no errors. I tried to run dropbook and it draws the window and some times the controls but it doesn't respond to mouse clicks except for the close button to which I get the not responding dialog with the force quit option which I choose. dropbook did run under

(I see this in both R-patched r43124 and R-devel r43233.) In the Argument section of ?mean: trim the fraction (0 to 0.5) of observations to be trimmed from each end of x before the mean is computed. Values outside that range are taken as the nearest endpoint. Then in the Value section: If trim is non-zero, a symmetrically trimmed mean is computed with a fraction of trim observations

Dear R users, This is most likely very basic question but I am new to R and would really appreciate some tips on those two problems. 1) I need to plot variables from a data frame. Because of some few high numbers my graph is really strange looking. How could I plot a fraction of the samples (like 0.1 (10%), 0.2 up to for example 0.6) on x axis and values 'boundaries' (like any value

Hello all, There is currently a (very !) lively discussions happening around the web, surrounding the following topics: 1) Is R efficient? (scripting wise, and performance wise) 2) Should R be written from scratch? 3) What should be the license of R (if it was made a new)? Very serious people have taken part in the debates so far. I hope to let you know of the places I came by, so you might be

R users; A question about optimization within R. I've been using both optim() and nlminb() to estimate parameters and all seems to be working fine. For context (but without getting into specifics - sorry), I'm working with a problem that is known to have correlated parameters, and parameter estimation can be difficult. I have a question on optim() - I'm using
