[R] Revisiting multiple plots

Suppose I create a multiple plot with zoo, using: index - ISOdatetime(2004, rep(1:2, 5), sample(28, 10), 0, 0, 0) foo - zoo(rnorm(10), index) for (i in 1:9) { data - rnorm(10) z1 - zoo(data, index) foo - cbind(foo, z1) } plot(foo) This creates 10 plots on one device, one for each column in

I agree that most problems arise in the data management / file derivation phase. From my reading of 21 CFR 11, it appears that this document focuses primarily on data management (as well as on software directly involved in a medical device) rather than on validation of statistical functions. I

[R] CPU usage on Windows

2007-03-16 Thread Jonathan Wang
I'm using R with emacs ESS on Windows. When I create a plot, sometimes R will seem to get stuck in a busy loop, i.e. it will use 100% of my CPU. However the system is still somewhat responsive, and the problem usually goes away if I create a new device with windows(). If I then close this device,

Try this (or use xyplot.zoo and write a panel function for that): library(zoo) set.seed(1) tt - as.Date(paste(2004, rep(1:2, 5), sample(28, 10), sep = -)) foo - zoo(matrix(rnorm(100), 10), tt) pnl - function(x, y, ...) { lines(x, y, ...) abline(h = mean(y)) } plot(foo, panel =

That's a good point. What's the overhead on digests like that? Also, does that open up the possibility, exceedingly small though it may be, of misidentifying a branch as already searched and missing a qualifying subgraph? On Mar 16, 2007, at 2:02 PM, Seth Falcon wrote: Peter McMahan

[R] Font in JavaGD() pdf()

Dear r-helpers, When I do an xYplot and display the result in a JavaGD() window, the font is sans-serif (presumably Helvetica). When I send the figure to a pdf, I get a serif font (presumably times). How do I insure that the font in the pdf is indeed the default sans serif? sessionInfo()

2007-03-16 Thread Richard M. Heiberger
I can't imagine using Windows without Emacs. In particular, the Windows ports of Emacs are very aware of the operating system and usually make the right assumptions. The type of behavior you are noticing can probably be cured by typing C-g in the *R* buffer in emacs. The most likely cause is
