similar to: Problem with foreign package

here appears to be a bug in the foreign library. The following code used to work, but now generates an error when 'package="SAS"' is specified: ds <- read.csv("http://www.math.smith.edu/sasr/datasets/help.csv") # running foreign package version 0.8-30 library(foreign) # this works fine write.foreign(ds, "foo", "bar", package="Stata") #

Dear R-devel, I've made some potential extensions to writeForeignSAS in 'foreign' that I wanted to pass along if anyone is interested. I've attached the diff -u output against the version found in foreign_0.8-15 and an .R file with my changes. (In this .R file, the function is named writeForeignSAS7 to simplify testing/comparisons.) I've tried to alter the current

Dear all, First of all, I thank you for the creation of the package. I write this message concerning the write.foreign() function from the foreign package and a bug that I discovered. When we want to save our dataset as a .sas file, the limit of variable names character is 8 by default. In SAS this limit is 32 character and an argument in the function, validvarname, can theorically switch the

I'm sure this is simple enough, but an R site search on my subject terms did suggest a solution. I have a numeric vector with many values that I wish to create a factor from having only a few levels. Here is a toy example. > x <- 1:10 > x <-

I was messing around with some data in R and SAS (the reason is unimportant) fitting a multiple linear regression and got a curious discrepancy. The data set is too big to post, but if someone wants it, I can send it. So, here are the (partial) results: From R: Coefficients: Estimate Std. Error t value Pr(>|t|) (Intercept) 61.11434 1.48065 41.275 < 2e-16 *** sexWomen

It looks like you made a copy/paste error below. Your ata.frame should be data.frame. Kevin On 05/04/2018 08:18 AM, Bill Poling wrote: > Good morning. > > Novice usR.

Good morning. Novice usR. Here. I am following this string, among many, learning as I go. Quick question please? I thought that perhaps ata.frame was part of the zoo pkg, b/c when I searched it came up in help? However, evidently not or I am not using it properly. Please advise, thank you. x <- list(A=data.frame(x=1:2, y=3:4),B=data.frame(x=5:6,y=7:8)) x2 <- do.call(rbind,

Hello, In May 2018 there was some R-devel discussion about a bug in foreign:::writeForeignSAS. See here: https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2018-May/076220.html and it resulted in a patch. See: https://bugs.r-project.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17256 And I see the changes in Subversion here: https://svn.r-project.org/R-packages/trunk/foreign/R/writeForeignSAS.R But I don't

Hi Kevin, There is probably a better way, but it can be done in two steps like this temp <- list(A=data.frame(x=1:2, y=3:4),B=data.frame(x=5:6,y=7:8)) temp <- lapply(names(temp), function(n, temp) { temp[[n]]$type <- n return(temp[[n]]) }, temp = temp) do.call(rbind, temp) On Wed, May 2, 2018 at 1:11 PM, Kevin E.

Sorry. Let me try again then. I am trying to find "significant" predictors" from a list of about 44 independent variables. So I started with all 44 variables and ran drop1(sep22lr, test="Chisq")... and then dropped the highest p value from the run. Then I reran the drop1.

Hello. I am posting this on behalf of a student in my class. I have been introducing them to R. I suspect that the problem I need help with is not so much an R issue, but a MAC config issue, but I don't have enough MAC experience to know what to do. Anyway, on to the problem. We are using Frank Harrell's Hmisc and Design packages. This student also wishes to use the latex formatting

I suspect this is pretty easy, but I'm having trouble figuring it out. Basically, I have a list of data frames such as the following example: list(A=data.frame(x=1:2, y=3:4),B=data.frame(x=5:6,y=7:8)) I would like to turn this into data frame where the list elements are essentially rbind'ed together and the element name becomes a new variable. For example, I would like to turn the

Hello. In this post: http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu/Rhelp10/2010-March/233815.html Uwe Ligges suggests using BRugs rather than R2WinBUGS under windows. He also notes that it is not in the main CRAN repository, but it is in "extras" which is a default repository under windows. I have OpenBUGS 3.1.0 (the latest that has a native Linux version which is no longer called linBUGS)

Greetings, I have generated several ROC curves and would like to compare the AUCs. The data are cross sectional and the outcomes are binary. I am testing which of several models provide the best discrimination. Would it be most appropriate to report AUC with 95% CI's? I have been looking in to the "net reclassification improvement" (see below for reference) but thus far I can only
