[R] date and time functions
Dear R community I would like to perform some statistical analysis on a data set containing the following items: date, time, index of observation and various covariates. The date and time are originally extracted in the following format: dd.mm. and hh:mm:ss respectively. R and more precisely the function read.table() seems to read the data properly. In a second step, I would like to sort and subset the data according to daytime, day of the week, month, season but I get into trouble when trying to use the built-in functions with this format. Which is the most convenient date and time format in R to perform such kind of work? Is there any specific, powerful and well documented package containing various date and time functions?

[R] post-hoc test with kruskal.test()
Dear R users, I would like to know if there is a way in R to execute a post-hoc test (factor levels comparison, like Tukey for ANOVA) of a non-parametric analysis of variance with kruskal.test() function. I am comparing three different groups. The preliminary analysis using the kruskal-wallis-test show significance, but I still don't know the relationship and the significance level between each group? Do you have any suggestion? Many thanks in advance! Robert ___ Robert M.

[R] Integrating a function
Hello everybody! I have problems with integrating my function. My primary function is a survival function of the following type: surviv - exp(-k*x)/(1+exp(alpha*(x-tau))) I would like to integrate this function over a defined range and obtain a vector with all the values from integrate(surviv, 0, x) for x - 1:N. I unfortunately obtain just a scalar value corresponding to the last integrated x. How do I have to proceed if I want to obtain a vector with all the results? I have tried to solve this problem by adding a while loop. It works but the expression becomes to complex if I want to perform further optimization. Have any one a solution for this problem? Thanks a lot in advance. Example # General equation beta1 - 0.001 beta2 - 0 Hct0 - 0.27 tau - 70 k - 0.001 alpha - 0.3 T2 -40 step - function(x){ if(x=0) step - 1 else step - 0 } Nmax - 250 n - 1 while(nNmax){ surviv - function(n){ surviv - exp(-k*n)/(1+exp(alpha*(n-tau))) } geq - function(n){ geq - Hct0+beta1*as.integer(integrate(surviv,0,n)[1])+step(n-T2)*(beta2-beta1)*as. integer(integrate(surviv,0,n-T2)[1]) } plot(n, geq(n), type=p, pch=19, xlim=c(0,250), ylim=c(0.25,0.35), xlab=time in days, ylab=Hct) par(new=T) print(c(n, surviv(n), geq(n), as.integer(integrate(surviv,0,n)[1])) n - n + 1 } Robert M.
